"While the service was outstanding we had several dishes that were not to the highest standard. The baked potatoes and we had two were both luke warm at best. One steak had to be sent back because it was really rare instead of medium. One steak I ordered was cooked right but was not hot. I do not understand the food being warm when we were the first or second group in the building that afternoon so you would think everything would be hot. Atmosphere was great, music was ideal and service was very good."

"I was looking for a wonderful place to take my mother on her Birthday because, let's face it, GOOD food & GOOD service is just hard to find sometimes. I reserved seats for our party online through OpenTable. We were seated in a the main dining area, which was spacious & clean. The staff were all very gracious. We did have a slight problem with my mother's meal, some of her vegetables were left off, but that was quickly remedied. The meal was delicious. I can't recall what everyone had, as there were six of us, but everyone loved their dishes. Toward the end, a family did come in with small children that began to get louder than the ambient music, but as it was the end of our meal & not the beginning, it didn't disturb us. SC is a new fave!"

"Saddle Creek had a great atmosphere and good food. However, it was very disappointing to experience the absence of food options. Although my waitress gave her utmost effort to ensure we were not upset, I felt the restaurant should've been better equipped in regards to it being Mother's Day. Not only did they run out of all the specials, they ran out of ribs and we had to wait longer than expected to be served our meals because the kitchen was bagged up. Without such discrepancies, I would've enjoyed myself as well as recommend the grill to others."

"There were 7 of us in the party and we were seat right away. When our waitress took our food order, she wrote nothing down. She relied on her memory. It wasn't bad, but she did get 3 things wrong...2 wrong salads and one wrong side. Why don't you have your wait staff write down their orders?"

After reading the description, we decided to try it and are definitely glad we did!!! Our waiter Rick was very attentive. The atmosphere was quiet and sophisticated. The food was delicious!!! We will definitely return."

"Good place. Had a great filet. My wife had the same. Server was excellent! Quick and efficient. No complaints about this place. It's not the most unique night out, seems like a high-end Outback, but very nice for a normal night."

"My husband and I usually have a great night out at Saddle Creek, but this night was not very pleasant. We reserved online instead of requesting Heidi's area like we usually do..big mistake. We ended up seated in the bar. It was loud, and the service was lousy. We were seated, given our salads and nothing more our server. We asked to change seating, which ended up not being much better(directly behind the hostess area). When the food FINALLY arrived it wasn't warm! Do yourself a favor and always request Heidi to be your server, and you will have a great experience every time."

"Saddle Creek Woodfired Grill has the best steaks in Arkansas in my opinion. My husband and I eat there often and the steaks are usually cooked to perfect temp. However on Valentines day both of our steaks were overcooked terribly. We didn't send them back because we were aware of the huge crowd the chefs were trying to prepare food for. I would recommend Saddle Creek to anyone who wants an awesome steak."
