Best

Find this place best seafood in all United States vs Japan even. Tuna and Sea Bass. The two are best ever. "Ira Todd Klein"

Worst

Not having been to this one-time seattle instituion for years, I decided to take some out of town guests here before the tour. Seems as if good ol' Salty's has fallen on hard tim...

Salty's is a nice place 8/9/2005

The free valet parking is a nice touch. The view is fantastic. The food is fantastic (won't be on a Chef's TV show any time soon, but tasted great). But lets face it, you're not buying food or parking here, you're paying for a view and great service. Our dinner for 2 was around $150 after a tip, but it was worth it. I had a beautiful date, but it was tough to pry my gaze off the sunset reflected on the cityscape. Bring your fiends, bring your family. Make EXCUSES to come back if you have to. A+ Pros: View, Service, Food Cons: Expensive more

Last Time 8/1/2005

Many visits to this restaurant, including brunch; last week's was our last. No table at our reservation time, however seated outside right away with great view. Caesar and spinach salads arrived after 40 minute wait and were quite ordinary. Both my wife's cowboy ribeye and my grilled halibut were nothing special. Dinner rolls were somewhat tough and chewy. We were given a free desert for our anniversary celebration; the white chocolate mousse cake was excellent. As we left the deck and walked through the indoor dining area, we couldn't believe how noisy it was inside - reminded me of college taverns. I would say go once if you must, just to say you have been there. Otherwise, there are much better places to celebrate a special occasion and spend less than the $100+ Salty's will cost you. more

Salty experience leaves bad taste in my mouth 7/25/2005

The view is fantastic, the food is not bad, but our service was absolutely horrible. Our waitress was very rude. When I sent back a diry glass, she rolled her eyes. My husband ordered a glass of wine. We waited and waited, and when we finally asked for the wine she replied "Oh, you want that now?". She never told us what the specials were. After we received our meals, I heard a waiter behind us talking about the specials, and I really wished she had told us about the specials because they sounded fantastic. Finally, our waitress never checked on us after we received our meals. I was very dissapointed, and will not be driving the 35 miles from our home to eat at Salty's again. Pros: Great View Cons: Bad Service more

Beautiful place 7/19/2005

Beautiful place speaking of the main issues for a restaurant - the view, the menu, the service. It is a great place to watch the sunset. The menu is not ordinary. The service is great and waiters do not interfere conversations. more

Now we are overwhelmed ! 6/26/2005

Last week I wrote a review titled WE WERE UNDER-WHELMED, and while I stand by the review of that nights experience, we will return to Salty's again, all due to a phone call from Mary, director of operations for Salty's. Mary call was very sincere, and she is very proud of Salty's, (I think she has been there for nearly 10 years) and felt horrible that we had such a bad experience. I am convinced Salty's just had an off night, and will write another review after our next visit. Mary thank you for your call, you are a valuable asset to your organization! more

We were under-whelmed! 6/21/2005

Arriving 11 minutes late for our 9:30 reservation (was a long cab ride) we were told by a very cold hostess that we would have to find a table in the bar. A table of 8 was seated in the mostly empty dining room a few minutes later. Hummmmm... After a long wait, our waitress took our drink order, and returned with same 15 minutes later. Long story short, horrible (non existent) rude service! Average overpriced food. Pros: View Cons: Service, Food, Price more
