Crazy good food in a beautiful setting. I ate here while at a conference, and honestly, I don't even want to know what dinner cost the sponsor.
There is a lovely bar area that opens onto a patio, with casual lounge seating and a gas fire pit. Watching the sun set and the mountains while enjoying a glass of VCP Champagne? Heavenly.
I had the chance to ray several salads - roasted beet, Caesar and spinach. All were fresh and flavorful but the winner was the roasted beet and I don't even like beets. I can't say I had ever had popovers either but the airy, cheesy delights served at BLT make me wonder why they aren't more popular. (They also made me seriously consider buying an overpriced popover pan from Williams-Sonoma)
BLT is a steakhouse so I expected great things from the ribeye and was not disappointed - the steak was tender and juicy and served with a red wine reduction. We also sampled perfectly roasted chicken - a simple dish, but one few places do well. Pair it all with homemade dauphionoise potatoes and garlicky green beans - truly an outstanding meal.
Even with 150+ diners, the staff and kitchen here were on top of things. Courses were well timed, drinks were refreshed and a lot of people left happy. I'm just glad I wasn't paying the bill.
