    Wow! This was truly a perfect dining experience. Starting with the rosette cookie and crab toast set the tone for what turned out to be a 10/10 meal. Every cocktail was thoughtfully crafted, every bite was worth savoring, and I found myself wishing every plate would last just a little longer. The only regret? Not saving enough room for dessert. I guess that just means I’ll have to come back.

    Salty's is a wonderful place. Our server, John was terrific and the food was very tasty. We celebrated my husband's 79th birthday and was pleasantly surprised to be there on a Monday evening for half bottle priced wine and a very reasonable surf and turf special. I had the 10 oz. Maine lobster tail which was amazing.

    Lovely atmosphere: elegant but relaxing and comfortable. Attentive, friendly service. Food was excellent quality. Very fresh and flavorful. I thought the value was outstanding, too: dined by myself and had two glasses of (amazing!) happy hour house red and white wines for $6 each, and three-course farm-to-table dinner for $49. I will absolutely be back.

    Absolutely phenomenal food from sushi to appetizers to entrees of every type. Wine and drink selection was a perfect range and our choices were all excellent. Service was above and beyond, especially from our server. The chef and cooks are clearly very talented, everything was cooked to perfection. The restaurant and its cuisine is upscale without being uppity. It's a true hidden gem.
