    I took an Air Force buddy/Life Friend visiting from Atlanta to brunch. The look on his face when he saw the enormous selection was priceless. We both agreed that the Pasta Station was the shining jewel of the selections. Those fellas knew what they were doing. The general crowd was polite and courteous, and parents minded their children. The view is always a big selling point when eating at Salty's on Alkai, but the view was obscured by a large barge. Nevertheless, it was a great time, great food, and I will definitely take out of town visitors back there again.

    You cannot beat Salty's at Alki for the incredible view of the Seattle night skyline across Elliot bay.It is a stunner. The setting incredible, the view spectacular and the food sublime, the baby dumplings with the swordfish were spectacular, unexpected and the perfect pairing sauce.

    Quirky but fun decor at Salty’s - nice views of the Sound and Seattle. Waitstaff were kind and efficiently. Food was tasty, but I have had better seafood in other restaurants in and around Seattle.

    Everything from start to finish was amazing. The table had cute “Happy Birthday” decor and they made my husband feel so special. We had oysters and the most delicious sourdough bread to start. The whipped butter was creamy with the perfect amount of garlic. The mignonette for the oysters was the perfect tartness to balance the sweetness of the oyster. I had the swordfish - took me back to eating in Hawaii. Hubbie had a delicious filet with scallops. It was everything I wanted him to experience on a milestone birthday!

    What a wonderful birthday dinner for my husband. The food was amazing! The city lights and the holiday decorations still up to add to the festive occasion. Clear night with almost full moon. A perfect evening.
