    We ate here while staying at the marina. I had the shrimp chimichurri special which was really good. The crème brûlée for dessert was excellent. We loved it so much that we ate here again on our return trip the next week. This time we brought our dog. It had just rained so the hostess wiped down our table and chairs so we could sit outside. We had the sushi special and the chocolate mousse dessert and both were awesome. We will definitely be back!

    Overall we had a very fine experience. Wedge salad was excellent and steaks were good. Saltus advertised fine dining with formal dress code. I would say change the code or enforce at least something. I wore a jacket, most folks were business casual, but next to us was shorts, T-shirt and ball cap… not cool.

    Food and service was wonderful. Nicholas was very friendly and knowledgeable to help with menu decisions to accommodate my my husband's gluten free diet. Would definitely eat here again.

    Best sushi that we have had stateside! The meal was awesome! Everything was prepared and presented perfectly! We were treated to a complimentary Anniversary celebration desert that was amazing! The waitress was excellent! By the way, if you haven’t tried their grits “side dish” I would heavily suggest it. I am not usually a fan of grits, but trust me, theirs are a culinary delight!! Would love to have a Saltus River Grill in Bluffton or Hilton Head!!!!

    Great location. We had an outdoor table. The food and drinks were good. Our only issue was that part of the order was not served until the other members of our group had already finished their food.

    The food was good not great. For the price point we expected a far better food experience. The staff and atmosphere were delightful.

    Waited almost for an hour for the raw shrimp (still in shell, which I knew) to be delivered to my table. Ended up taking it to go. Fantastic, polite, knowledgeable server.
