My boyfriend , Jonny, and I went to Silverado Steakhouse only because we were already at the Southpoint Casino for a comedy show. We had no idea what we were getting into, so we had no preconceived notions or expectations. I ordered the beef short rib. It was swimming in salty gravy with what I am pretty sure was boxed mashed potatoes (and again with lots of salt). Jonny ordered the filet mingon. He asked for medium rare, but it was meant to be rare. I say meant to be because it was all pink inside, but no blood! It was bone dry and again very SALTY! We then ordered the cheesecake. Jonny asked if the deserts were pre-made.. The waiter responded kind of shocked that we would even ask that. The cheesecake was most definitely pre-made.  The plating was beautiful, but the cheesecake was hard and extremely cold! The garnishes of raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries were not fresh. The stick of mint chocolate was delicious, however. Jonny called a manager over to tell him about our experience. The manager seemed unfazed and comped one of meal items without us even asking, and the bill was still over $75 without alcohol.. Which leads me to believe the manager is used to these complaints. The food was terrible. The service, however, was better than most places. The servers were very friendly and personable.
