| - I went here for lunch today with coworkers (there were 13 of us). We had originally planned to go to The Cheesecake Factory but their power was out and they couldn't serve hot food. On a whim someone mentioned Cedar Creek Grill so we decided to give it a shot and I'm extremely glad we did!
Upon entering I could tell that this place was much fancier than our original plans. We were seated quickly and our very friendly server was a sweetheart and was patient with us while we were deciding on what we wanted to drink.
For lunch, I ordered the fish of the day which happened to be blackened mahi mahi (one of my favorites) with a delicious beurre blanc, broccolini, and garlic chive mashed potatoes. I think I got that all correct. I have a hard time remembering the names of intricate dishes like this one but I can tell you I won't forget how delicious it was.
The mahi couldn't have been cooked more perfectly. The chef definitely put some TLC into it and it felt as if he/she(?) spent the entire day nurturing my filet just for me. But I realize that that is not possible because the other dishes at my table had to be cooked as well. It was, by far, the best piece of fish I've ever had so kudos to the chef because I'm quite picky about my fish.
The broccolini could have used a few more minutes cooking. The stems were woody and hard to chew. Also could have used some seasoning. I'm not mad though because I need to be watching my salt intake (says the doctor). Maybe a little pat of butter on it would have been nice as well.
The mashed potatoes...what the what??? Delicious! I wasn't expecting the flavor I got from them so when I took my first bite, my eyes got big and I immediately told my one coworker that he needed to try his because they were tasty.
Last, BUT NOT LEAST, my coworkers surprised me and told the server that it is my birthday today (first annual 29th, woohoo!) and they brought me an icecream sundae. It was vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce, whipped cream, and nuts. Now, I know that sounds plain but it was not even close to plain. The ice cream tasted like they made it in the restauarant. If they did, that's pretty awesome; it was QUALITY. The chocolate sauce was legit. It was real chocolate, not that gunk in the brown sqeeze bottle (you know what I'm talking about). It was the perfect ending to the perfect meal.
Everyone at our table loved their food. Some got burgers, some got salmon, a few raved about the amish mac & cheese. I was too involved in my meal to pay more attention to their comments.
I will definitely be back, hopefully with my husband so he can experience Cedar Creek Grille. I really want to try the steak frites next time.
