Reading some of the recent reviews on here, it seems like people have mistaken Salt for some other spot. I've never been disappointed with any of the menu choices ordered and I've done everything from an app and drinks, to some of the fancier entrees, to sharing a dessert or some fries at the bar. There is one thing I've noticed, some of the people coming in to Salt have a certain sense of entitlement as soon as they walk through the door. Salt is not a very big space. With maybe ten seats at the bar, five tables in the bar area and maybe another ten in the dining area - there's not much room to ""hang out"". But Salt is not a lounge, and people coming to Salt ARE coming for the food. That's why the barstools are usually taken up by singles or couples actually ordering more than drinks. I've been one of those people waiting to order some food at the bar while someone waiting for a table takes up space there, nursing one drink. I understand that they paid for that drink, but obviously they don't get that this is no longer a sports bar where you can write your name on a stool and call it your own for the evening. And as for their being disgruntled, you have to wonder why they have come back again and again and the one time they are ""reprimanded"" for taking too long at a table, they act like spiteful children. Salt is not your dining room people. I know you brought your out-of-towners to the Hill to show them your favorite spot, but unlike the Sopranos who always get a table right away and anything they want including staying as long as they want, you are one of many other people who enjoy eating at Salt. So do us a favor, finish your lovely meal and go home or to a lounge to keep socializing. People are waiting at the bar for your table and taking up my bar space, and I'm hungry!
