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

Wonderful place for a special occasion
Made reservations for brunch with the outdoor seating option but was able to sit indoors. The meal was excellent and the seating was well spaced.
Amazing food. Great deal on the wine. Awesome service. Can’t wait to go back.
They set up rose petals on the table and a nice card and comped dessert for our anniversary. The staff was super nice about my gluten free restriction too. Thanks Salty’s :)
Great food and great view!
Just gotta be there.. awesomeness.. waitress was too awesome
We have been to Salty’s the last 2 weekends in a row! We were craving the seafood trio and being we are both on diets, this was an awesome option to have. We had Kim as our waitress (again) and she was excellent. Although COVID has changed the way we dine out, I feel like the people in the restaurant business are much nicer and more grateful for their jobs. I hope when things go back to “normal”, they stay this way - and same with diners!
The restaurant is wonderful. The staff was so nice, the atmosphere was beautiful especially the water and skyline view. The food was tasty. I would recommend anyone to go to this Saltys on Alki Beach. Enjoy
Great food , bit pricey, but good overall. Great view of the Seattle skyline
A gentleman who had too much to drink came in and sat out on the covered patio. The manager did an awesome job of chatting with him, bringing him bread for free and treating him with respect. The man was a little obnoxious but the manager did a great job handling the difficult situation and keeping him occupied so he didn't bother the other patrons.
Took our kids out for dinner. They haven’t been out to many restaurants since the pandemic. They had a great time. We have great food and great service.
Thank you so much for joining us and leaving this kind feedback! We are so thrilled to hear your kids enjoyed their time with us. We hope to see you again very soon!
Dinner was great and I loved the huckleberry lemon drop. It was nice to get back there.

Celebrated my 45th birthday here while visiting Seattle! This place was amazing!! The food, the location, the service! EVERYTHING was absolutely fabulous!
Thank you so much for joining us for your special day! We loved celebrating with you and are so glad you chose Salty's. We hope to see you again very soon!
Great Service from Brian!! Delicious food and large portions. What a view of the Seattle skyline. Overall exceptional experience all around
outside patio and covid precautions were good. food and service was as if no covid. same quality standards.
we love it there
Thank you so much for your kind words! we hope to see you soon.
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.
Hi there, thank you so much for dining with us! We appreciate you joining us and leaving this feedback. I will definitely pass on this advice to our team! Thank you again and we hope to see you soon.
Perfect for special occasions or date night. Lovely view of the city.
Thank you so much, Laura! We appreciate you coming in and hope to see you again soon.
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!!
Thank you so much for joining us and taking the time out of your day to leave this feedback. We completely agree, Chrissy is an amazing addition to our team! We hope to see you again very soon!
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!
