    We had redfish, rosemary chicken, broccolini. Food was excellent, server was outstanding. A bit of a wait even with a reservation. Wish the chairs/stools in our section had backs for more comfort. Overall highly recommend.

    Never have I had any regrets for visiting this establishment! Today was no exception! Tony our server was spot on and gave us nothing but solid advise on the HH menu that we chose for small plates. The beverage menu was also inclusive enough of wine, craft cocktails, and local beers. Can't wait to return and it will not be as long as it was this time! Well done salty Saul!

    A restaurant resting on its reputation. Slow, unresponsive service coupled with an overcooked burger and meals left half unfinished. Not even an inquiry from the waiter or general manager. Followed by having to ask to see the bill, rather than just being handed the tip screen.

    Everything we ordered (half of the menu) was exceptional. Sat with a view of the kitchen which was fun! It’s lovely and the ambience is simple, but refined and welcoming at the same time. Great value as I’ve ate at many restaurants that are twice as expensive but don’t quite hit the mark that the salty sow did flavor and execution wise. Would highly recommend!

    We were fortunate to be seated in the main dining area, as the BBQ area seemed smoky. Kyle was our server, and he was amazing! We had the octopus and ahi dinners and they were very delicious! We highly recommend this restaurant, and making a reservation is a must, as it gets a busy!

    Thank you so much, Lynda! I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed everything, and we are so lucky to have Kyle. It's always nice hearing how much guests enjoy the daily specials because our chefs put so much love into those dishes, so thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. We hope to see you soon! - Grace, GM
