The menu was so limited it was ridiculous. Server explained it was due to change of chef etc. half our food wasn't included as the "Chef was too busy". For a fathers day "spoil" for my dad and husband this was ridiculous. highly disappointed

Can’t beat the view. I made reservations for Thursday as it is Prime rib night. At 645 we got the last two pieces. Whew. Otherwise don’t likely need to reserve Some new staff so service was spotty but kind.

I’m truly disappointed by our experience today. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty, we were seated beside a group of 25 plus at least it seemed that way since the group was large and loud. I’m not blaming them, I’m blaming the staff who placed us there. It was very unpleasant. My daughter takes lessons here, and we’re regular patrons, so it’s disheartening to feel consistently mistreated—especially by one particular staff member who seems to recognize our reservation name. It’s hard not to wonder if this is intentional. It saddens me, because this is genuinely a great place, and I continue to support it despite these negative experiences. Am I crazy for still coming back? Hope someone would care enough to contact us and talk with us. I need nothing in return given I’m pre booked for 5 months of Golf lessons for my daughter. MD

My husband & I were celebrating our *42nd wedding anniversary*, since we have been to this Satellite Bar & Grille Restaurant quite a few times, I booked a few days before, through OPEN TABLE for an early dinner at a table next to the window, with a beautiful view of the golf course and mountains..VERY lovely! Our meals: the Pork Schnitzel, and Lamb shank with polenta were delicious! We ended off our night with 2 very delicious desserts, Pecan Pie and Chocolate Lava cake. mmmm...yummy. our server was Darcy very friendly and efficient . Thank you for making our celebration tonight a smooth & delightful one. :))

The dish I ordered Pad Thai lacked any realistic flavor, the chicken, while moist was brown meat and the flavor not appropriate for the dish. Having had the same dish at many restaurants over the years it was sub-par at best. My dinner date had salad and chicken. The salad was fresh and crisp, the chicken breast, was almost like it had been reconstituted. Rubbery. We weren’t looking for a freebie. We finished our meal and shared our comments with our server, prior to us finishing our wine , we were asked if we needed the machine, not if we would like anything else, and within minutes brought the bill. We felt like we were being rushed to leave.

Good reception. Seated promptly. Water & menus brought promptly by Mattie? Our dinners were brought in good time and everyone seemed happy. Fish and chips were very good. Too much salt on chips, fish was outstanding. Other menu items included vegetarian noodles, ridge burger, beef dip - all enjoyable. Great service by Emma.

I'm going to put this one down to not having enough staff members. We were sat down, given menus and then ignored for 20 minutes. People that came after us got to order their food. We left. Also, there are TV screens EVERYWHERE. And these are big. I tried looking at my partner but there was a TV screen directly behind her head that was very off-putting. No one was watching them. If we stayed longer I guess I could have asked them to turn them off.

We really like this spot since we stay close by. The view is spectacular and the service and food are very good. They are a bit pricey but you get large portions so it is worth it (we always take home food).
