Salty's on Alki Beach
Locations finder
Seafood at it's best – My wife and I have a Special Dinner every Time we Visit Portland. The Lobster is excellent and the atmosphere is breathtaking. For a night to remember check it out!
Hoop de doooo – Lets start with the $7.50 draft beer ! Lets add in the $25.00 for a small piece of overcooked halibut. Lets add in the $45 for a bottle of average table wine. And we'll finish with a $9.00 dish of ice cream ! Need I say anymore ? You have to be a Kentucky Fried Idiot to ever go there a second time. If you recommend THIS place to anybody but your worst enemies, you really need to get out more.
People dont know how to review – Salty's is just a great spot, the view is nice, too bad it's way out by the airport. I am shocked at the reviews about it being overpriced and pretentious. There bartender, Todd, has been written up in a couple magazines for his "special drink" served with a rock candy crystal. I love there wines, very knowledgeable staff. Food is always good, desserts are to die for. I'm looking forward to going to brunch one of these days.
Yum Yum Saltys – Great place for family brunch. Highly recommended! Even allows reservations and window seating upon request. Easily best breakfast in Portland!
bad idea – Recently the weather was very hot and my folks called me at work to see if I wanted to meet for dinner.My choice of rest. I thought some place on the river would be nice. Salty's came to mind. BAD IDEA. I love to eat good food and I don't mind paying alot for a little as long as it tastes as unique as the price. Aside from the stiffling heat inside, I almost choked when I oppened the menu. "damn proud of their food" comes to mind. We decide to have an appetizer then try someplace else for dinner. Again, BAD IDEA! ... read more
Not the best Portland has to offer. – I went to Salty's tonight. Never been before. Wife had the the Salmon with stuffed crab. She was not to enthuised. I had the Lobster. Fantastic! We were starving when we arrived. No bread for us. After we were served my wife noticed that all the other patrons were served bread. Not to be nitpicky here but when you spend 300.00 bucks on dinner and wine for two. I want my bread. With reservations for over a week we were sitted in one of the worst spots. Next to the fireplace closest to the... read more
Best Happy Hour in town! – A friend and I go to Salty's regularly on weekends for Happy Hour and the Mel Brown Trio. The seafood chowder and calamari are outstanding! The drinks are excellent as well, strong but not too strong. The waitstaff is always friendly and attentive, without hovering. Last time the bartender even made me a custom drink when I couldn't decide between two on the menu. The view from the bar upstairs is unbeatable and the patio is great during warm weather. The Mel Brown Trio is always excellent, and rea... read more
Salty's very proud of their steaks. For $30 per steak dinner go to Black Angus and feed 2 – Just took my wife to Salty's for her birthday. Salty's may be reknown for their seafood but as for their steaks......save yourself some money and go to Black Angus or some other chain restaurant. I'm dead serious about this. I paid $60 for 2 steak dinners that was sub-par, smothered with bleu cheese. If you want to taste the steak scrape off ALL the cheese in order to savor the flavor of the meat, which was about 3/4" thick. Sorry Sal... read more
Major reservation mixup - good food, but too pricey – I made a reservation for my husband and myself for our anniversary. When I called I requested a table by a window. "Sure, no problem", I was told. They even asked if we were celebrating a special occasion. Around noon on the date that we had the reservation for I received a call from Salty's confirming our reservation. I was impressed that they took the time to do this. Unfortunately, between the time of that phone call and when we arrived for dinner, our reservation some... read more
