“On the basis of our extensive research, the Sand Creek Grill received almost unanimous endorsement as Sandpoint’s very best restaurant”
-David Vokac, author, The Great Towns of America: The Hundred Best Getaways, August, 2007.

Dulce is an “exquisite transformation … Aromantic escape with sumptuous silk-cushioned seating, exposed brick walls, subdued lighting, and jeweled accents reflected by ever-present candlelight.

More than 200 wines are on the list, including decadent ports, with generously poured flights at a reasonable price … the menu is Asian-French (sushi) … heavy on seafood … with sweets to tempt the devil herself …”
- Carrie Scozzaro, The Inlander, February 8, 2007

In both 2006 and 2007, Jennings Waterhouse, chef/partner of the Sand Creek Grill/Dulce was selected to be an Inland Northwest “signature chef.”
