Once in awhile I comment on a place where we have stopped for a meal. The other day after meeting with my doctor in Fredericksburg, we decided to go out and celebrate with a good dinner while there. Foxy had gone on line in anticipation of this idea and found several eating places in this city that we had not tried. We looked them up and checked them out and finally stopped at a new steak house on main street. The sign said, "Closed," but the lights were on and the door unlocked, so we ventured in to discover that they were indeed closed and had not really opened at all but had merely tried some lunches. They had been working for two years to renovate the building and were about finished, but not yet open for dinner. The owner gave us this information, so I asked him where he goes for a good steak and he recommended the Navajo Grill. We thanked him for the information and acted on his suggestion.
The Navajo Grill is also on Main Street but at the other end of this town, and it proved to be a delight. They specialize in Southwest cuisine and suggested a New York Strip with a balsamic reduction and topping of a horseradish butter. This was complemented with fresh vegetables and mashed potatoes seasoned with Poblano red peppers. It sounded good, and we thoroughly enjoyed the offering. The side salad was crisp and had several additions such as pecans. I even had room and tried the chocolate chipolte pie. Ambiance was wonderful, as this restaurant is housed in a renovated house, but there is also outside seating available as well. Out waitress was Cat, short for Catherine, and while attentive, she was not intrusive. The whole experience was splendid, and we recommend this experience to one and all. It is a bit pricey and should be saved for special occasions. I am hoping for just such quite soon again. Happy travels.
