    It was our first time there and we liked it a lot. The decor was exceptionall chic and totally appropo for the ambiemce of the restaurant. The music played was adult and relaxing. The service, too, was appropriate - not at all hovering or asking every 10 minutes how everything Ourwas. You get the idea. Our waiter answered any question we had quickly and with full knowledge and understanding. Overall the food was excellent. Excellently seasoned and very tasty. I would recommend Saly G's to anyone interested in high quality fine dining.

    Came here for a celebratory dinner with my spouse. We shared Clams Casino as an appetizer, and he had sea bass as an entree while I had the grouper. He enjoyed Birdsmouth lager, and I had a cocktail and glass of wine, then we each had dessert (peanut butter brownie and salted chocolate chip cookie). I also had an after dinner drink--the Jolly Roger. Everything was top-notch--the service was efficient but not rushed, the food was hot and delicious, our table was comfortable and we could converse easily but still felt the happy vibe of other diners around us, and the surroundings were elegant. Price point was high-end but not unreasonable--entrees $40-45, drinks around $14 each, extras $10-15 each. Parking was convenient at the Church Street garage across the street (though not included). Would absolutely come here again for a special occasion.

    As a long time fan of White Castle, the idea of a special Valentine’s Day sit down dinner with menus and table service is really fun. Such a break from other pretentious restaurants that overcharge on Valentine’s Day with limited menus. The Green Brook staff is to be commended. Will return each year! Thank you.
