    I dined at Cobalt yesterday evening and once again it did not disappoint! I missed Burger night on Tuesday so I definitely ordered a burger last night. It was perfection; caramelized onions and melted Swiss! The chopped salad as my side was amazing as always. Our server was Heather and she was on point! She was friendly, attentive, and made our dining experience perfect!

    We enjoy Cobalt Grill, but occasionally, we find a soup or entree over salted for our taste. We have in the past mentioned to the server when ordering to minimize the salt and that has been successful.
