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

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!

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.

Great location and outdoor dining during pandemic.
Thank you so much for dining with us and taking the time out of your day to share your feedback. We look forward to your next visit!
The tent was comfortable & ventilated with tables spaced apart so we felt comfortable in these Covid times and enjoyed being out for dinner the first time in many, many months.
Service was great!
Patrick, thank you so much for joining us and sharing your feedback. We appreciate you being our guest and hope to see you again soon!
They did a nice job in the tents due to Covid.
Nice and warm too.
Thank you so much for joining us! We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed your dining experience in our heated tents. We look forward to your next visit!
I love going to Salty's so I was happy they had outdoor dining it was very covid safe. It's in a vinyl tent that has heat blowing in it with both doors open so they are circulating beautifully but the best part is we were actually right on the water. I thought I was on a boat! And the food? I'm a pretty good cook but I can't hold a candle to these guys. And I had a beautiful dirty martini even though I was on a keto diet along with the salmon skewers scallops? Yep mighty fine! Can't wait to go back
Good oysters, awesome cocktails, heated tents with string lights made us feel like we were at a festive wedding. Such a great effort to allow outdoor dining during Covid shutdowns. Server Mary was excellent too!
Thank you so much for joining us during these times and taking the time to share this feedback! We are so glad your service from Mary met your expectations. We look forward to your next visit!
The food is good, service is great and the ambiance is lovely, but the prices are unnecessarily high. Plus, the tables in the tented areas were a bit too close for my comfort during the pandemic.
Great food and great service. Would love to return and eat again.
Marco, thank you so much for joining us! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your dining experience. We appreciate having you as our guest and hope to see you again soon!
Was a great meal and an outstanding view. Such a good service too. I cannot wait to go back there again!
Great place with beautiful views. The weather was chilly outside and the heaters worked well to keep us all warm and cozy :) The only disappointment was the incomplete order as we did not get our appetizer but overall a great experience and good food! We were celebrating a birthday and the surprise cake was very much appreciated! Recommend for a special occasion.
We had a wonderful time, under the warm and festive outdoor tent, and enjoyed the rainy but cozy view of Seattle.
Thank you for the review, Mia! We’re ecstatic you were able to enjoy the beautiful Seattle skyline while dining. We love to hear our guest’s feedback and we can’t wait for you to join us again.
We had a lovely experience celebrating a special occasion! The staff was incredible, the food was delicious, and the outdoor seating was warm and comfortable. Definitely a wonderful, safe dining experience that hit all the right notes! Thank you!
Hi ! Thank you for the review and for letting us be a part of your special occasion. We loved celebrating with you and we can’t wait to see you again!
Holiday brunch
As always, Great food and beautiful view. Best chowder in Seattle.
Thank you so much for dining with us! We appreciate you being our guest and look forward to seeing you again.
The view is super. However, within pandemic, the gazebo and the clear plastic setup blocked the view.
The hostess lead us to a table that was next to a table full of unmasked people, they weren’t eating, they were chatting even standing. And just left us. The two table was very close, not following the 6ft guideline if I must say.
I was not comfortable with that seat, me and my company had to climb all the stairs back to the restaurant to find the hostess, ask for a seat change.
She also didn’t bring menus for us, but mention we can scan QR code on the little stand on the table, that can see the menu.... when I heard that, I think: since when customers had to see menu by scanning a code ourself? Doing more steps than expected, what if we don’t have a QR code scanner in our phone?
That’s not the fun part, when we scan that QR code, it was the survey about dinning in this restaurant.
We didn’t even get served right... how can I leave survey? The restaurant really need to do more hostess training.
The food is good, that’s why I would still give 4stars.
Stunning views of the city. Great heated tent outdoor dinning. Food was great! Excellent wine list.
They have done an incredible job of making all the tented spaces warm and safe.
I will go back
Great food, service and atmosphere. They have tents set up outside to accommodate outdoor dining during the pandemic. The tents were very warm with excellent ventilation. Definitely one of the safest dining setups I've seen.
Just average. Service was poor and food was nothing special. Not sure why’d I’d come back.
I had brunch at Saltys this past weekend and it was a great experience! Upon arrival they welcomed me and wished me a happy birthday! I’m guessing my open table account showed my birthdate bc I don’t know how else they knew? We were able to sit outside despite the cold and raining day. They had heated tents right on the water decorated with fall decorations. The service was spot on and they even sprinkled some happy birthday confetti on our table along with a card. Such a nice touch! The food and drinks were good as expected from this establishment. They ended our meal with a surprise birthday cake and candle. Thanks Saltys for making my birthday brunch extra special even during these challenging times! :)
A best Anniversary dinner. Rose petals on our table, and still the best view anywhere. The attention of staff was really the best. Thank to Seattle Dining Week the value was also top notch.
Amazing service, amazing food, amazing atmosphere!!
Really loved the view. Can't beat a better view than what we saw!
The food was amazing and our waiter Chad couldn’t have been better. The view is worth every penny. We felt that the restaurant was very concerned about our safety regarding COVID.
Service and food great. Very pleasant experience. In these Covid times, lots of care and cautions take.
Excellent food and service and a gorgeous view. Love Salty’s. It is a favorite haunt for my Dad and me.
