It was an amazing experience from the beginning to the end. Rose was our server and she made we all are taken care. I am a vegeterian and I had to ask her so many questions, she never made me feel that it’s weird or annoying to ask so many questions. What a great attitude and professionalism. I am amazed!! All of my friends at the table were so happy with her service. She also got me a birthday surprise dessert as my friends told her my birthday is in two days! She and her colleague joined my friends to sing happy birthday song🥰. It was truly memorable, will definitely visit again soon and would want Rose to be our server. Huge respect for her! Also, the food was just delicious! So so filling and so yummy!!

Our server was very knowledgable and helpful. However, it felt like he was very rushed and stretched thin. It was a Monday evening so the restaurant shouldn't have been as chaotic. However, we and most of the guests dining were in the area to attend Wicked at the Murat Theatre. This is something Salt knew was happening as they had special cocktails for the occasion. When we finally got to order, we asked to START with the Hawaiian Poke appetizer. It was over 45 minutes before we received any food at all. Our server explained that he had to put in our order for everything to arrive at the same time otherwise we would've been waiting for a very long time for all of our food. Which didn't seem to make any sense as tables that arrived after us enjoyed their appetizers long before we received our orders. I think he forgot to put it in and then threw the kitchen staff under the bus. The food was absolutely delish. Pricey, but I knew that going in. We enjoyed the Poke. I had scallops and asparagus. My daughter had the lobster mac n cheese. All of it was absolutely divine. The scallop dish is perfect for anyone who has had bariatric surgery and cannot eat a full meal. My daughter and I both had Glinda Mocktails that were as delish as they were pretty! The cocktails and mocktails that Salt on Mass came up with to celebrate the Wicked show were on pointe! We never complained about the wait time on our Poke. However, our server took it upon himself to talk to the manager. The manager came over and apologized for the delay and comped our Poke dish. It wasn't necessary at all, but truly made up for it. Overall, I would LOVE to visit this restaurant again and give them another shot. It was an unfortunate incident with our appetizer, but it happens!

We thought the food was good, but not worth the value. The dining room was nicely decorated, and the tables were well spaced for privacy. We had the Stuffed mushrooms, Dumplings and Watermelon salad to start. All were a good portion and tasted great. The appetizers came out in a sufficient amount of time. Overall, we felt the service was slow. Drinks took too long once ordered, and we had to look for the server a few times. We were disappointed in the entrees. I want the menu to be an experience that the Chef tells me what they think great looks like. To have the "build your own entree" option was disappointing. I ordered scallops and got 4 x U20 scallops. If I'm being generous, there was maybe 3.5 ozw on my plate. The experience was good, but the portions were small.
