The third recent meal at Black Bar & Kitchen, and this one also was excellent. My big, juicy burger nailed it - great meat, cooked perfectly (medium rare), fresh onion slice and crispy fries! My wife’s Branzino was well-seasoned and very fresh and tasty. We love the bar and high top table area - more fun than the dining room for couples. Wine’s were pricey- $17-$20 / glass - except for the delightful Malbec - just $9! I had two glasses at that price. Black’s keeps us coming Back!

We had a great dinner at The Salt Line. The selection of raw oysters was great. Our party of 5 ordered a variety of dishes. Our favorites were the Parker house rolls, crab dip, baked cod, and hamachi crudo. Overall, everything was delicious, including the drinks. The service was kind and friendly. A special thanks to Ji, our server. Thank you for a very enjoyable evening!

I will definitely be going back again. The food was delicious. We ordered the lobster and crab scampi, crab cakes, lamb chops, mac ‘n cheese, kale caesar salad, and the corn bread (waiter recommendation). Everything… EVERYTHING… was delicious. Portion sizes were reasonable. The salad and the mac and cheese are shareable. Our waiter was on his A game and we didn’t want for anything. He was on too of it and knew the menu very well. The drinks were excellent. Can’t say enough how much I enjoyed this first time experience.
