Not bad for 1x 7/23/2003

Well, Salty's is a west Seattle landmark, therefore everyone should try it at least once. On that note, you have to expect them to know this therefore you will definitely pay for it. I had dinner for 2, with a few drinks, a dozen oysters, no desert, costing 100+. I must say, the whole crab there is excellent. It takes a while to eat but its prepared in a wood burning oven with "thai" spices and ginger which makes for quite a treat. The waiter was very helpful and did a great job. We went a little early as to beat the dinner rush so the view was unobstructed and clear. Overall, not as bad as everyone says it is but definitely not what you pay for. Pros: view, ambiance, food Cons: price more

Great Service 4/9/2003

I was on a first date and wanted to impress her so I took her to Salty's. When we got there the hostess gave us a table next to the window with a great view of downtown. We started by ordering some drinks and when they came I was so nervous that I spilled my drink on the table and myself. The server was so helpful, she came and brought me club soda so that it didn't stain my clothes, cleaned the table and then brought out another drink. Little helpful things like this are hard to find these days in nice restaurants. Pros: Friendly Staff, Great Service, Best View Cons: A little expensive more

Bad Experience 3/6/2003

My recent visit to Salty's was my absolute worst dining experience in Seattle - ever. We recieved a bad bottle of wine. (it was a LeEcole Schoolhouse Red - typically a very good house). We asked to have it replaced with another selection. The wait person said sure, but the manager came out, insulted us twice (in front of other diners) and refused to replace the awful bottle of wine. It was a surreal expereicne. We quikly asked for a check, paid and left (we paid for the awful wine that we did not drink). The appetizer we had with the wine was fair to bad at best. My reccomendation would be to avoid Salty's alltoghether and instead frequent some of Seattle restaurants that don't only rely on a great view to attract customers. Cons: Awful Service, Overpriced, Lousy Food more

Plain Salty 12/10/2002

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 times. The view, of course, was amazing. The food was barely OK. Seemed as though our food had been made a while before it reached our tables-rather bland and unimaginative to boot. Salty's would be OK for an ordinary meal (though overpriced) but don't make plans for a special event. Pros: view, view, view Cons: food, food, food more
