This was our first visit to A Salute and it did not disappoint! The food, service, and ambiance was well received. Our party of 8 (four couples) enjoyed dining here and all agree we will be back. Thanks for a wonderful dining experience.

The food was just okay, our waiter was attentive and they need a sound barrier between the lounge area and dining area. I was listening to club music and Frank Sinatra and the same time.

Fun lunch with friends at A Salute. Service was excellent, menu was extensive and everything was great at a reasonable price. Nice atmosphere with various seating options - we sat in the "church" from 1850! Thank you for your hospitality.
