3 /5 Gerard Lee: A co-worker and I spent the weekend at the Singing Hills Resort ... the last time we were here (7yrs ago), it was the Sycuan Resort. We returned to play golf on the Oak Glen and Willow Glen courses as well as Cottonwood nearby. We ended up having three meals at the Red Tail Bar & Grill; breakfast, lunch and dinner.
We had the Huevos Rancheros and Black Forest Benedict for breakfast; these dishes remained unchanged, at least in our memories. My only nitpick was I wanted the English Muffin toasted more.
For lunch we had The Red Tail Club Sandwich and the Chorizo Flatbread. The latter looked like the Crispy Chicken Naan except for chorizo replacing the chicken. My co-worker loved his dish. My club sandwich was less successful ... the ingredients were not distributed evenly so there was no aioli or tomato on two of the pieces and no avocado on the other half. The fries were good.
We returned for a third time after an unsuccessful trip to Sycuan Resort and Hotel because the restaurants, we tried to go to almost all of them, were stymied by: a) Bull & Bourbon being completely booked; b) a hostess that didnt seem to want to seat anyone at the Viewpoint, c) a mechanical problem that closed the Pink Buddha, and d) Elicit Lounge was closed.
So, we started with the Crispy Artichoke and Grilled Asparagus ... delicious! My friend ordered the Specialty of the House, a 10oz Prime Rib; it came only medium or higher, and I had the Achiote Chicken. The prime was served with whipped potatoes, seasonal vegetables and roasted garlic ... horseradish sauce was extra. My chicken came with hominy corn succotash and a lime cream sauce that hinted of curry; it was delicious! I had two gin & tonics; they were okay and inexpensive at $9ea.
All in all, Red Tail Bar & Grill is a decent place for a meal; service is good; it s convenient to the Singing Hills Resort and you can charge your meals to your room. A bonus, we received a $50 credit when we checked in. Rating? A solid 3.5 out of 5.
