    Went here to celebrate my birthday - first off, the staff was amazing (from the hostess to the server), not rushed at all, amazing views of the city, quiet. Second, the food & drink 100000/10. Never disappoints! And lastly, a piece of cake to help celebrate. Definitely an experience I won't forget and encourage anyone who is in the area to check out this amazing restaurant!

    We are so glad the Christmas Brunch is back! It’s been a tradition for many years in our family and we have missed it! Wish it was back on Saturdays too! We missed Santa and the doughnuts-upon-arrival, but overall we’re pleased that most of the things we love were back.

    All the staff did a fantastic job serving us but must call out Baldy who graciously & kindly helped with recommendations AND making me an amazing spicy seafood/garlic rich pasta dish that was as good as (if not better than) many fine dining Italian restaurants that I’ve frequented. It was so good that everyone at my table loved it & couldn’t keep their forks outta my dish! Made my birthday special as did Oka who took care of us. Food was great! Service even better! Seated at a table with a view also made it very nice!

    My large party of 8 had a wonderful time at Salty's for brunch -- their brunch menu is pretty focused compared to other buffets, but the selection is wonderful and everyone got everything we've been craving. Standout favorites were the dungeness legs, waffles, and potatoes. Service was so kind, warm, welcoming. Salty's brunch is one of the few buffets worth going to.

    It was girls night, we made a reservation for 4:30pm and we were super excited to experience “Crabby Hour”. We were surprised to find out that there was no happy hour and that no specials could be served in the dining room. Had we been made aware we would have gladly sat in the designated crabby hour area. That aside, Saltys has an amazing view of the city from across the water. The food and drinks were good. All things considered, we would come back for the view alone and the peacefulness away from the city and FREE parking.
