It had been a solid four or five years since I'd been to Saltgrass Steak House. To be honest, my last visit back then wasn't exactly memorable in a good way. One of those meals where you leave thinking, "Well......that happened." So it quietly fell off my rotation. Fast forward to last night, and I'm glad I gave it another shot. From the moment we sat down, the experience felt completely different. The service alone set the tone. Our waitress, Lauren, was on it the entire night. Friendly, attentive, and somehow perfectly timed without hovering. Drinks stayed filled, food came out smooth, and she made the whole table feel taken care of. To top it off, a manager named Edgar stopped by to check on us. Not a quick drive by "everything good?" but a genuine, professional check in. You could tell he actually cared about how things were going. That kind of leadership usually trickles down, and it definitely showed. Now let's talk about the food. I ordered the ribeye, and it was absolutely dialed in. Perfectly cooked, seasoned just right, and packed with flavor. The kind of steak that makes you pause mid bite and nod at the table like you just made a great life decision. Everyone else at the table felt the same about their meals. No complaints, no sending anything back, just a lot of quiet chewing and approval noises. Between the phenomenal service and food that actually delivered, this felt like a completely different restaurant from the one I remembered years ago. Safe to say Saltgrass is officially back in my good graces. I came in cautiously optimistic and left planning my next visit. read more

I called to place an order for a school team who's traveling to Tyler, Texas. They've had Saltgrass for 3 consecutive years when they travel. I was told they didn't have enough product to feed 30-35 guests. We only wanted burgers. I inquired about chicken sandwiches instead and was told by management they were waiting on a response from Edgar. Trucks arrive on Monday with product. You don't have 35 burger patties? I was informed there was "plenty of chicken". I let Meghan know chicken sandwiches would work and I needed a price. I followed up a few hours later and received a response from Meghan: "I guess we are not doing it" What type of establishment turns away paying guests? This is definitely a personal attack and it's very disgusting to say the least. read more

I recently visited Saltgrass Steak House for the second time and once again it did not disappoint, this time I decided to try the chicken fried steak and it was absolutely on point, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and full of flavor, the mashed potatoes paired perfectly with it and really completed the meal, the customer service was A1 from start to finish, the staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was just right without being overbearing, and the restaurant itself was nice and tidy which made the dining experience even more enjoyable, overall this second visit confirmed that Saltgrass is a solid spot and I will definitely be coming back again. read more

This location was smaller than other ones we've been to, but we didn't have much of an issue. We were seated right away. And food came out within a decent amount of time. I was able to get the gluten-free burger bun, which was nice and everything was cooked. Well, we'd probably come back if we were in the area. Parking is out around the building. If I did have one suggestion, could you make the coffee cups a little bigger because it's so easy to have your coffee overflowing and pouring out onto the plate, it's on. read more

Our friend was in town for a week, and he was really wanting a good steak. Since neither of us had been here, we thought we'd give it a try. It was a busy night, with some college ball going on, so we ended up sitting in the bar to watch what we could and didn't really have to wait too long. We started out with some drinks. Of course, I had to try their Midnight Rider Old Fashioned, and gotta admit, it was pretty tasty. My wife ordered a Amaretto Splash cocktail. For an appetizer, we ordered the Ranger Rattlers, which is their version of a jalapeño popper. Not bad but nothing to call home about. However, they brought over a honey wheat bread (or something like that) and man... that was a mighty fine loaf! Warmed perfectly to melt that butter. A good warm freshly baked bread is a known kryptonite of mine. So good! Lance and I ordered some ribeyes with a baked potato, which was delicious. My wife ordered the Shrimp Artichoke Pasta, which I might have sampled a bite or two, and yeah... it was damn good. Overall, it was great to catch up with an old friend. The drinks were good and the food was fine. Service was a bit slow that night, where our server apologized a couple of times, but it wasn't crazy. He was very apologetic and explained why, and we get it. We weren't in a rush or anything. Thanks for the experience... plenty of steakhouses to try out in Tyler and Texas! As always, Enjoy & Happy Eating! read more

Great steakhouse with great tasting steak and service! Ate at the bar and ordered the Maudeen center cut filet medium rare with a sweet potato and boy it came out juicy and very tasty! Lucas the bartender made me a very tasty Texas Tea. Plus they got a rewards program which I use! I highly recommend Saltgrass! read more

Popped into here, thinking we could catch the Cowboy game and great Saltgrass food! No FOX network in the restaurant so no game, a dried out ribeye, and other fried items mixed in with the fried mushrooms set a poor tone. The great server added a star back. The clean and well maintained restaurant with the classic Saltgrass ambiance really made the negatives seem out of place. read more

This was not a great visit. We sat at a table in the bar rather than waiting. We did receive fresh bread almost immediately but we had a long wait. It wouldn't have been an issue except the servers/bartenders were playing around behind the bar, the bar was dirty, and tables/bar were not cleared/cleaned when diners left, so not a good look at all. They forgot our appetizer and didn't try to charge us for it, so we just wrote that off. Otherwise the meal was good. We all have off days...I'll chalk it up to that and be back. read more

Came in for lunch and had such a great experience! From the moment we sat down, Bekah took amazing care of us, super friendly, attentive, and just overall made us feel really welcomed. We started with the range rattlers, which were absolutely delicious! Then had the ribeye (highly recommend). We couldn't leave without trying the carrot cake, and it did not disappoint! What really made the visit stand out though was Bekah. She checked on us at all the right times, made great recommendations, and had such a positive, easygoing vibe. You can tell she genuinely cares about her customers and wants everyone to have a great experience. Definitely coming back, and definitely asking for Bekah again. She's the best! read more

Restaurant can't handle DoorDash orders. Waited there half an hour and finally the manager came and told us the order had not even been put in. read more

Brought my husband here as a treat. Prices are high, but that's beef everywhere these days. However, if I'm going to pay over $30 for a rib eye, I expect it to be over a 1/4" thick. The steak on my husband's plate looked like an envelope. I sent it back. They brought us another one not much better. Best part of the visit was the fresh baked bread. Absolutely not worth the hype NOR the price. We won't be back. read more

My husband and I love trying different places to eat. Our guest wanted to go out for a steak so we decided to give Saltgrass a try. We sat in the bar area so we could keep up with the college football game. While deciding what to have for our dinner, we ordered our drinks. Two of the guys enjoyed Midnight Rider Old Fashion and I had Amaretto Splash cocktail. We each liked our drinks. We started with the Ranger Rattlers for our appetizer. Very delicious version of a jalapeño popper. They also brought out a loaf of freshly baked (honey) wheat bread... so delicious. Fresh bread is a weakness of mine. I had the Shrimp Artichoke pasta. The guys had the Ribeye Steak. Served with butter melting into the steak... just the way my husband does it at home. One added sautéed mushrooms. Our service was a bit slow, but we were okay with that since it gave us a chance to catch up on life with each other. Our server was very friendly and polite. apologized for our slower service and invited us back when he wasn't having an off night. Other than it being just a bit slower than normal, we did have very good service from our waiter. All in all we had a wonderful experience and will return. read more

Went with a friend on Christmas shortly after opening and were able to get in quickly in a booth as requested. Steaks were made correctly. Food all together was really good! Service was good too. Only issue I was having was from signing up with the card after purchasing it for them. But was able to get it to work later. Place was full and clean. Can't complain about spending my Christmas with them. Will for sure go back! read more

Stopped in the Tyler Saltgrass steakhouse for my husbands birthday, his steak was excellent, service was excellent, however my patty melt was terrible, I have had one here before and it was so good, I should have sent it back, but I was so hungry, I ate it anyway, it was burnt, they had to have know, because they tried to hide the burnt side of the bread inside, the burger was dry and overcooked as well, not much cheese or onion, felt like a brick in my stomach. So very disappointing. read more

Second year in a row weve been screwed by them on thanksgiving! last year we walked out. this year we made reservations over 2 months in advance to sit and wait for an hour to be seated. them to be told they sold out of the turkey dinner because they let open reservation people the day of come in and eat all of the food!. This is by far the scummiest restaurant in all of tyler! i recommend not wasting your mlney here! We will definitely never ever eat here again!!!! read more

The service by our waiter was great. The food had no flavor to it. The lemonade tasted has if had been sitting out for a few days. We could tell the air conditioner maybe over working however there was a drip coming down in the waiting area and no out of all the workers hanging out thought to clean it or put a wet floor sign in the space. 1pm on a Sunday should have been a sign. I hope this was and off day. read more

The No Bull Lounge (bar, booths, high top tables) has a great selection of happy hour apps and drinks Monday-Friday 3-7. Best margaritas by far....Anywhere! Delicious steaks, of course!

On Sunday 10/13/25 at lunchtime we were seated promptly but our server, Macy, was overworked and couldn't get to our table promptly so a kind gentleman took care of our drinks and brought bread. Under the circumstances, Macy did a fantastic job. I ordered the 12 oz Ribeye. I love a good ribeye steak. Unfortunately, I don't know what this was. I enjoyed the bread which was quite sweet, almost like dessert and I enjoyed the delicious potato soup. It all went downhill from there. My steak was thin but cooked as requested. The green beans were cold. The first bite of steak was way too salty for my taste but I continued with my meal. By the time I was 4 or 5 bites into my steak I had to stop. The salt and pepper were just too overwhelming. That's all I could taste. It was nauseating and I had heartburn by the time I got to my car. I don't get heartburn, typically. My tablemate who thinks I'm too sensitive and picky about my food was sure it was just me. I hate to complain and make waitstaff feel bad. I really do. And I hate to send food back to the kitchen. It's just so wasteful. But I should have. Instead, I asked Macy for a 'to go' box so my tablemate could enjoy my meal later. Then came the bill which my tablemate should have put on his reading glasses and examined more closely before adding his normally extremely generous gratuity. Because if he had, he would have discovered that he needed to reduce the gratuity by the 18% that had already been added without his knowledge. So Macy, job well done and I hope you feel well compensated for what I know was a hard days' work for you with the large party you were also responsible for! Please enjoy your 68% gratuity because it's the last tip you'll ever receive from us. We won't be returning to SALTgrass in Tyler again. P.S. My tablemate reheated the remainder of my meal for his dinner later that evening. He sat down at the table and dove in. While my back was to him as I watched the evening news I heard a strange sound coming from the dining area. He was choking. Not because he swallowed wrong but because he couldn't breathing from all the pepper and salt on his first bite. Sorry to say the dog was so displeased when that steak was thrown into the trash but we love him too much to poison him! My tablemate apologized and declared that he will never make me eat at Saltgrass in Tyler, ever again. :~/ read more

Tonight was our first time eating at Saltgrass, and we really enjoyed it! The server (I believe her name was Lauren) had a jammed thumb and a trainee in tow, but she did a great job. My grilled shrimp was perfectly seasoned and flame-grilled, and the brussel sprouts were excellent. Husband's steak was exactly as he ordered. It was a nice anniversary dinner :) read more

Here for Valentines. Got here before 5 pm. 30 or so tables open. Was told an hour wait. Called earlier and was told we couldn't make reservations. Have been told this many times before. Got here and was asked if we had reservations. Seriously? An hour into it and we're still on the "wait" list. One bartender on a night when they knew they would be slammed. Understaffed as always. Poorly run establishment. read more

This place is outstanding. Heads above other steakhouses in the Tyler area. Whenever and wherever I order a steak, it is always a filet. My filet was 10x better that the one I recently had at Longhorn. Same with my wifes ribeye. The service was GREAT. Eric went above and beyond. read more

Saltgrass redeemed themselves a bit in my book last night. Hubs and I really wanted a steak and didn't want to drive all the way into town. So we gave them another try. The last time we ate there during Covid Togo it was TERRIBLE. My only complaint was the steak had several very hard inedible places that we had to cut off. Service was descent and the atmosphere is always great. read more

Customer Service was HORRIBLE!!! Food was cold by the time they gave it to me on a To-Go order. My order was supposed to be ready in 20 minutes, I waited an extra 20 minutes passed the ready time. The To-Go host left and went home and did not give any details or updates on my order. Finally, the bartender noticed that I had been waiting for a while and asked me if I was waiting on an order. So, the bartender is the one who went to go and retrieve my COLD food, that had probably been ready. This was definitely my last time patronizing this restaurant. I spent $40 on food that I didn't have an opportunity to enjoy. read more

Went to Saltgrass today to celebrate husband's birthday. Whoever was cooking today was amazing! The last time we ate here, the Brussels sprouts were so over cooked, to the point of being burned almost beyond recognition. Even after I sent them back and they made a new order, the new order was better but still way overcooked. Today they were perfect! I've attached a picture. I also had the ribs with bbq shrimp. Ribs were fall off the bone tender and the shrimp were so decadent. Absolutely perfect. The only complaint was that service was pretty slow. Not sure if it was an understaffing issue or what. Our server was very nice and took good care of us. It just seemed like everything took longer than normal to come out. We had dessert to celebrate the birthday and they were huge and so delicious. We agreed, again, that we could just eat dessert here and be completely happy. read more

My wife and I tried Saltgrass in Tyler this week and man was it good! Our waitress (Ritchie) was the best. She was there when we need her, and basically did a great job! We had the shrimp cocktail for an appetizer. The shrimp were large and the cocktail sauce was great. Then we had the Wedge salad. Very large Wedge ! Excellent! My steak (hamburger steak) with mushrooms and onions was very tasty. Cooked just right and the loaded baked potato was good too. The desserts (cheesecake and carrot cake) sounded wonderful, but we were too full. Maybe next time. When in Tyler, give Saltgrass a try. Go get Full read more
