    Service was great. Wine was good. Nothing spectacular about food. Lemon cake with raspberry was not what you would expect. Do not recommend this dessert.

    We had Eli as our server, she was very professional and charismatic, we enjoyed our time at Saluda’s. The food was delicious as delicious as always. This is our favorite restaurant in town and favorite server. Thank you for always being consistent and for the incredible service. Melissa Kinard.

    Elena (sp) was our server and she was so kind! She checked up on us multiple times and had great conversation with her. The food was impeccable and to top it off it was a beautiful evening so we were able to eat outside. Definitely think we found our new date spot.

    Saluda's always delivers a phenomenal experience. Our server Eli was attentive and knowledgeable and took great care of us. The food always seems to be taken to another level each time we visit. I greatly appreciated the environment and how friendly the staff was.
