Come for our anniversary dinner and loved the experience! Wonderful service. Our waitress was funny and friendly. We’re from out of state so the scenery was very different for us but beautiful, regardless of the weather. The food was excellent! Fresh clam chowder is not a thing where we are from so we really enjoyed all the fresh seafood! Great selection of wines also. This place was recommended by a family member and I believe if we ever visit Oregon again we will go back to Salty’s!
