    This was one of the best meals my husband and I have ever enjoyed. The view cannot be beat, the service was wonderful (Adam was helpful and patient with us) and the food was extraordinary. The 1936 Roll is a must try. We will absolutely be back the next time we're in Seattle.

    Came for a birthday dinner. Ideal setting w/ panoramic city views. Feels quaint and comfy. Table was set w/ birthday decorations and a card signed by that day's staff! Server, Adam was friendly, attentive and professional. He let us dine at a pace that allowed us to visit and chat with our group in a relaxed manner. Solid surf & turf menu choices all with a NW lean. Everything is presented & executed extremely well. Nice selection of unique cocktails, and a good wine list that isn't overly expansive. Salty's is always a go-to for a special night out.

    LOVED everything we ordered. We were seated at 5:30 and got to watch the sunset on downtown Seattle and the lights come on in the city. Especially liked the scallop and prawn mixed grill and 1036 roll.

    Big Miss- Born and raised in Seattle for almost 60 years. A big fan of family owned restaurants and made reservations to celebrate my wife coming back from a deployment with the US Navy and my daughters high school grades (1st semesters). Had to wait over 30 minutes beyond the reservation time. The place was packed and soooo noisy. The staff seemed to be overwhelmed. Ordered drinks and calamari. The wife asked for some red seafood sauce which took more than 20 minutes to arrive calamari was by then cold (what was left) Her midnight manhattan tasted horrible, daughter’s spirit free had no taste. Our waiter Main courses- Caesar salad had no taste because of the dressing, wife’s sushi roll was cold so the taste and texture was poor, daughter’s steak was good, my chicken was over cooked, dry and a bit cold. Tried to finish it off with a dessert but we should have stopped at the main course. Crème brûlée was missing almost the entire vanilla bean flavor so it was very bland. When the check arrive there was a 4% surcharge…I know this is becoming more common but it was suppose to cover wages increases and food costs. Unfortunately they are still cutting back on Staff (money to the owner) and providing a cheaper product (no value to the patron) so this will be our last time to Salty’s for a long time if ever again. It is sad to see the fall of a long running and cherished restaurant.

    We went to Salty’s for a birthday celebration. The staff make it special by preparing the able ahead of seating with a little bday swag and bring cake at the end with a candle. And no singing!! So nice celebration but not embarrassing!!
