Editorial Review for Shoreline Grill – by Susan Kirr

In Short
This casual and refined spot has wooden floors, walls painted in desert hues and a tall candelabra. The outdoor terrace offers views of the lake and the Congress Avenue bat colony. Grilled tuna is moist and jazzed up by a cranberry serrano sauce, and crab cakes--flaky crab with a tangy mango chipotle sauce; shao mai, petite pork dumplings encased in translucent wrappers; flawless creme brulee, the silky custard finished off with caramelized sugar.

This place is another Entertainment Book find. It's right next door to the Four Seasons, you can actually access it via their parking garage.The place is classy, dimly lit and inviting. No snobby host/ess or waitstaff were encountered. Great place for dinner with friends, special occasions, a date you are trying to impress, etc...I had a Rasberry Mojito which was great, but my entree was phenomenal!! Seared sea scallops with pistachio goat cheese polenta and garlic Dijon butter sauce.Oh My God! granted there were only 3 scallops on my plate but they were HUGE Chernobyl scallops. I felt well fed after so it wasn't all presentation and no substance. I definitely recommend this place, if you're looking for some place more upscale ($20-$30/plate). Do NOT waste your money on someone who looks for quantity over quality. This place is all quality I can assure you and worth it!

I wasn't super impressed for the price. I've been to a lot of nice places all over the US... and this place just wasn't worth the price. I went on Valentine's Day so there was a set menu... and the ambience may have been busier than the norm. Food WAS good, don't get me wrong. The mojito's were to die for.

Pros: cuts of meats, drinks, location
