Restaurants near Creekside Golf Club

Our first visit to this restaurant. The entree, Chicken Schnitzel was excellent and a generous portion. A nice diverse menu which will bring us back. The craft cocktails prepared by Greg were outstanding and the bar had a reasonable selection from Buffalo Trace Distillery (an attraction for me). Service was friendly and prompt. I like the environment, not pretentious, somewhat casual, food/service focused, and down to earth.

We’ve walked past this place many times. Finally decided to try it. Glad we did! The food was yummy, cocktails were very nice, the service was the best thing about our whole experience. Sean was attentive, personable, and had such a fun personality! There was also live jazz so that was a nice surprise! We recommend eating here.

Once again, out of prime rib early in the evening. Not sure how that can happen in a first-rate restaurant, but it happens more often than it should. Jordan is a great server, attentive, without being in the way of good conversation. She's a "keeper" and we always enjoy having her for our server! The rib eye was excellent even though it wasn't my first choice. My wife's fillet was good too. Please don't ever change your sauteed brussel sprouts recipe, except maybe to use less sugar (it would still be very good!). Great ambience in the upper dining room across from the hostess station, but not so much in the side room past the wine display. Haven't ever been seated in the lower dining area, and prefer the upper one. The food costs have gotten high enough to where we can't dine at Rudy's as often as we'd like to. That's a shame because we love the staff, the food and the ambience.

Great location in Salem; close to everything; adjacent to Holman Hotel and the conference center. The staff was great. We were seated promptly on a Friday night and Courtney, our server was attentive and charming. Drinks arrived on time; wine selection is limited but delicious. The menu choices were unusual. I enjoyed the Farro arugula salad with goat cheese. My partner ordered the baby back ribs with Korean glaze, kimchi and potato salad. I found the flavor of his meal too hot and spicy to enjoy.

Overall, our experience was very good. The food was wonderful and our server was very nice. However, he admitted to us that he had only been working for there for a few days and so hadn’t tasted any of the food didn’t have any ability to talk about wine or cocktails. We don’t hold him accountable for that, but think that management should definitely invest more in a thorough training for new servers.
