Cayton's Burger Bistro

Dave

We had lunch and dinner here during our stay and this is a beautiful and very tasty restaurant! Yes, the burgers served at lunch quite seriously are about the best burgers my wife and have ever had! Thick with juice running down your hand good! But the dinner was also mouth watering! My wife had the Yardbird chicken that had been expertly brined and was so yummy! I had the shrimp and grits and it was like I was in the best place in New Orleans! So creamy and good! See the pictures for sure and try this place! Great setting on the Dove Mountain golf course with the sunset!

We live locally and have been to Cayton's multiple times. At this visit the menu was changed and shrunken, and the limited selections were largely Southern cuisine (fried chicken, collards, yams, BBQ). Nice as an option, but this theme dominated a tiny menu. Prior sandwich/burger staples were gone, and this is curious given the full name on the earlier menu was "Cayton's Burger Bistro." The few carryover items revealed significant price increases (Fish & Chips from $22 to $36). We were told that the menu changes periodically (understood), but these changes had us apologizing to our out-of-town guests. Service previously has been warm, helpful, and appreciative. Our server this visit was largely unengaged, was unable/unwilling to provide menu guidance, and our questions about salmon preparation were essentially dismissed. Previously a go-to place to take visitors, Cayton's has fallen off our list but we will keep an eye out for some type of management response to the torrent of bad reviews. Oh, but the ambiance remains wonderful.

Setting is wonderful. Lunch menu good. Dinner menu is limited and overpriced. Can't get burger or tater tots at dinner anymore. We ordered a meal that was supposed to be celiac safe but the staff left an ingredient that could have been gluten. We used to be frequent guests but we won't be any longer. They should bring back other options for dinner menu.

Sometimes the food is good, sometimes really bad or inedible (very inconsistent). We’ve ate here many times since my parents live a few minutes away and we really want to like it but the service especially is less than desirable. Difficult to get anyone to help you make a reservation, we’ve been forgotten at tables, food took an hour once despite us asking multiple times and being told no problem - if we could have something like the rolls or French fries come out early so our kids could eat because they were starving. Wings were so spicy my dad couldn’t eat them (and he loves spicy food but it was completely inedible). Heard another guy behind us also complaining last time. The worst though is the kids menu. I’ve ate at a ton of nice restaurants (much more upscale) and I have never seen a kids menu with a $19 peanut butter and jelly sandwich or hot dog. How is it even comparable to the adult menu? Who comes up with these kind of prices? May as well just say kids are not allowed in the restaurant if they want to drive away the thousands of families in dove mountain area. With only a few restaurants in the area, they could be so busy. We’ve spoken to over a dozen couples and families who live in Dove Mountain who all reported similar issues with service and ridiculous kids menu. Such a shame for a beautiful restaurant in a great location.
