Wonderfully underrated underground bar. The drinks here are well made. Ensure you reserve a seat if you are on a date. While... the bar is open to walk ins, they do not allow standing guests here. Read more
Wow, I love the ambiance of this casual establishment. Located underground, dim lights, speakeasy vibes. Music, food and drinks... are AMAZING! Great menu, fast services, small plates, a little overprice but very filling. Staff is very welcoming attentive andfriendly, ask for Jamie, she?s the best! We did have difficulties finding the restaurant but it was well worth it! Definitelywill return and highly recommend. Read more
Sitting at the bar is the best way to enjoy this adventurous speakeasy bar. What a great atmosphere with super friendly staff.... The bartenders put all of their skills on display and add entertainment and flair to the drinks. If you order the right drinksyou won?t be disappointed! Pictured is Jennasen making the Toki?n on the Bayou. A smoked cocktail served over an ice globestamped with the ?salt? logo. Oscar was terrific and funny with his many ad lib comments. And don?t forget Ben, busilycollecting and cleaning the glasses! We stopped in after a brisk walk from the Clarendon neighborhood where we had had somedinner. Previous reviews led us to the big wooden door and the short flight of stairs down to the dimly lit bar. (there is anelevator too). We didn?t try any food, but it looked amazing. Prices were appropriate for the area and the quality was high andwe were pleased. We were there on a Saturday night and it was not too crowded, the vibe was chill, and they do close a littleearly, but they didn?t rush us out. What a great place to have a drink! Read more
Had a fantastic dinner here last night. It's got a speakeasy vibe, there's a door seamlessly blended into the wood wall as you... enter the foyer. You descend down a short flight of stairs into a dimly lit but spacious subterranean vault. The food andcocktails were fantastic. They make a good Manhattan and their cocktail of the day (bartenders choice) was superb too. All ofthe appetizers, entrees and dessert we tried were terrific: the tuna tartare nachos were rich in soy and ginger, the fork andknife Caeser salad was heavy but delicious, the gnocchi was tender and flavorful if maybe needing a touch more salt, thetogarashi crusted tuna with nori aioli and udon noodles was a mini masterpiece, the burger was respeldenent with the taste ofsavory mushrooms, and the creme brulee was a creamy delight and a fitting end to an epic meal. Service was very good, attentivebut casual and friendly at the same time. Read more
The food and cocktails were amazing and the staff knew their stuff and took the time to get to know your likes and dislikes to... recommend the perfect drink for you! We also enjoyed their desserts which were perfect pairings to the cocktails we ordered Read more
Food and drinks are AMAZING! It?s like a speakeasy. The music, vibe, and atmosphere of SALT was welcoming and fun! Finding the... restaurant was a little difficult, but look for the big brown door inside of the rotating doors and you?ll be set! Read more
If you want to eat here book ahead of time! Tables are booked up fast and its limited seating at the bar. The ambiance was... really sexy and the service was extraordinary. We sat at the bar and had great conversations with the other folks sitting at thebar. For the food, we absolutely loved the butternut squash gnocchi (I'll be coming back for this and now my colleague dreamsof it lol) and truffle fries. My colleague is vegan so she loved all the vegan dishes (mostly sides) she ordered. As for me, Iordered the tuna tartar nachos and the Gambas al Ajillo which were all way to salty for me (I guess that's why this is calledSALT lol). The manager and bartenders were all very accommodating though and switched my food out (back to another gnocchi ????)due to me not being able to enjoy the fish. The lady sitting next to us loved her Wagyu burger as well. Overall a greatexperience and when I'm in the area I'm coming back for my butternut squash gnocchi lol. Read more
