Spotted Dog, Springdale

I have mixed feelings about this restaurant. It's comfortable and well appointed, and the service was friendly and attentive. The salads were quite good - full of dark greens and with very tasty vinaigrette dressings. The hormone-free chicken was basically chicken, and the bed of mixed rice upon which it was served had a distinctly commercial tasty to it, as though it had been poured out of a plastic bag and heated up. The broccolini was very nicely fixed, though. My companion's Rocky Mountain trout was better than the chicken. So the vegetable aspects were very good, the entrees not so hot.
