    The appetizers were very good. We weren’t thrilled with our drinks, swordfish was salty, and water was room temperature. The service was fine and the food came out average amount of time. Didn’t wow me to come back.

    We are huge fans of Salt & Barrel. We have eaten there several times before and the food is so consistently excellent as well as the drinks and service. A little pricey but definitely worth it and always look forward to going back.
