Colossal Bering Sea Red King Crab Leg
At over one pound per leg, these beauties are the penultimate treat! Sourced directly from Alaska there is no better king crab experience. Included with our leg is a bowl of chowder, caesar salad, and to put a bow on the experience, a slice of our signature white chocolate mousse cake; Wine Pairing: Pomum Cellars Riesling, $38: We like riesling or albarino for their refreshing light bodied zip

we love it there
Quiet is good! We will be coming back, definitely.
One small thing: On the reservation page, there was no option for inside dining, although in the event we did dine inside. I realize that this is because of the covid lockdown, but you might revise that choice with "inside dining preferred". And point out that if it's really crowded, folks might need to wait a bit. Yeah, I know, it's tricky. So do what you have to do.
Perfect for special occasions or date night. Lovely view of the city.
We enjoyed our wedding anniversary there. We mentioned it in general conversation with our waiter and he immediately brought us a treat at the end of our meal. It was a very nice gesture.
Thank you so much for this kind review. We look forward to your next visit!
This is our second visit as we liked very much the location and amazing views of Seattle bay. Service is always very attentive and the food quality is excellent. Will surely come back for a third visit.
Thank you so much for coming back to join us again! It is an absolute pleasure serving you. We can not wait until your next visit!
very romantic venue. Ideal for valentine's dinner for two. The food is excellent and the service is attentive but not intrusive.
I will return, their cioppino is outstandingly delicious.
Incredibly friendly and attentive wait staff. Perfect, delicious entrees! And always an unbeatable view of the Emerald City across the bay
Thank you so much for leaving such kind feedback! We really appreciate you joining us and look forward to seeing you again next time.
The food was incredible and so was our server, Chrissy!!

Dinner with friends
Our server Brody was fantastic. Very friendly even though she had several tables all at once in the outside dining area.
She got us everything we wanted in a short period of time.
Food was fantastic and worth the higher price tag.
Amazing view, service, and food. Definitely recommend!
Salty's is always a great dining experience and the service is always wonderful. It was a bit cold outside but you can only do what you can with the Covid issues. Highly recommended.
It was great, I mean the only thing I would be picky about would be that the portion sizes are a lil on the small side, but I’m a big guy so I’m into big portions. Then the waitresses perfume was SO strong, we kept hoping she wouldn’t come back to the table, she was very nice though and the food did taste AMAZING.
The view was unreal, so beautiful to see the sunset reflection off of downtown’s skyline. Go at 5pm, and you won’t be disappointed, if the sun gets through the clouds.
Great service! Chrissy (our server) was attentive and made the time amazing!
Excellent as always
We had a lovely dinner with friends. The food and service were great, and the view, of course, is unbeatable. A great start on the road back to "normalcy"!
Amazing customer service, delicious food, outstanding view.
Thank you so much for joining us! We appreciate you coming in and we look forward to seeing you again soon~
The outdoor heated tents are amazing with a wonderful view. Chrissy was a wonderful server and took my birthday lunch over the top. Absolutely exceeded my expectations. $2 oysters were fresh and delicious and so was the steamed clams. The poke was also a good dish. We loved the oysters so much we had 2 dozen! They even gave us a complimentary cake. So wonderful! 100% recommend making a reservation and going there. Next time we go we need to try their brunch menu, it seems like everyone was ordering from there.
Hubby and I visiting from Portland. Outdoor seating was really nice and warm. Definitely will be back to this location when in town.
Excellent martini with Titos, seriously on of the best! Very generous serving of calamari, delicious seasonal salad with cranberries, and really delicious pasta with prawns. They are doing the best job during Covid with comfortable, pretty, and inviting patio dining. Thank you and kudos on the experience!
Birthday was special
Thank you so much for celebrating with us at Salty's! We loved having you and look forward to your next visit.
Ordered off the a la carte menu: prawns were spicy and perfectly cooked; 1 pound of the crab per person is perfect amount!
Salty’s has done a great job to enable outdoor dining. Very comfortable even on a cold, windy evening. Beautiful view of Seattle across the water. Food and service was excellent as always. Another fine dining experience. We will be back.
Great place for family and/or specials occasions. Food and services were excellent, and I highly recommend visiting during the day or by sunset time; we plan to go again with the full family.
Mohamed, thank you so much for joining us! We are so pleased to hear you had an enjoyable dining experience. We appreciate you taking the time out of your day to leave such a kind review and we look forward to seeing you again!
Our server Dane was exceptional! I was not in awe of my food which was grilled salmon with fingerling potatoes. My son enjoyed his which was the surf surf and turf. For the price I expected my dish to be amazing and honestly it was average. Other than that the view was great and the outdoor tent was comfortable.
Great experience.
wonderful, upbeat service. pricey, but worth it. lets support these guys!
Great experience and really amazing food.
Super friendly loved it
Thank you so much for joining us and leaving such a kind review! We look forward to your next visit.
Outdoor dining setup is wonderful! It was pleasantly warm in the tents and they still had a huge menu available.
Amazing food, drinks, and view. Worth every dollar !
Great experience as always! Our server Dane was absolutely amazing and made our experience better than we could have imagined! The bartender Scott made the best espresso martini I’ve ever had! He was kind enough to deliver a round of drinks to our table so that we could personally thank him for some amazing cocktails!
Three of us went to celebrate a special occasion. The outdoor seating in the tent was nice for COVID times, but the tent blocked the view which defeats the purpose of the elevated prices. Food was good, server was nice and only came by as necessary. The price was outrageous for the quality of the food and they even added on a service charge (not a tip) that the restaurant advertises on their menu does not go to staff. Adding a service fee on top of already high prices was disappointing.
Good food, been coming here for a whole. Covid 19 has messed up quite a bit of the restaurant biz. However Saltys has done a stand up job of making the best that they can out of the situation. The food is still excellent and the service is still great. I recommend this restaurant if you want a great meal.
Made our night so special!! Highly recommend this place to all
Thank you so much for joining us and sharing such kind feedback. We are so happy to hear you had an enjoyable evening with us! We hope to see you again soon!
We were seated right next to the water with a spectacular view of the city. Our waitress was cheerful and pleasant to order from. I would recommend 12/10!
Thank you so much for dining with us! We are thrilled to hear your service met expectations and we can't wait to see you again!
Love love this place. Excellent service and food. The best part we’re the views.

Great outdoor space, warm tent but good ventilation
Thank you so much for this kind review! We appreciate you joining us for our tent dining and are thrilled to hear it was an enjoyable experience for you. We look forward to your next visit!
Wow, we had a great time and enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere Saltys created -difficult to achieve during the pandemic. Not the normal ‘tent’-We were very comfortable outside, enjoyed the Seattle skyline view with their clear tents, warm with their sophisticated heating system, delicious food and meticulous service! Amazing!
Steve, we greatly appreciate having you as our guest during these times. Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to leave us this review. We can't wait to see you during your next visit!
Felt very safe in the outdoor tents with air/heat movemt and spaced tables. Nice view too.
Hi Laura! Thank you so much for choosing to dine with us during these times. We are so glad to hear you felt safe with us, and we hope to see you again soon!
