    Fantastic food, impeccable service, and well worth the visit! What a fantastic experience at Saltie Girl! We started with the oysters, followed by the warm lobster roll for my main course, and both were absolutely delicious. The quality of the food was exceptional, and the service was equally impeccable. A word of caution though… make a reservation! This place is incredibly popular, with queues literally stretching out the door. Without a reservation, you could find yourself waiting quite some time. Thankfully, we booked through OpenTable and were seated almost immediately. And whatever you do, save a little room for dessert! The chocolate chip cookie is an absolute must and the perfect way to finish an already fantastic meal. Great food, excellent service, and clearly a restaurant that deserves its popularity. We’ll definitely be back!

    This was our third time at the restuarant and first since the Michelin rating. The food is consistently amazing - delicious and prepared with care. The service is welcoming and accommodating. As we were a party of 4, our server offered to increase the items in the Jor Puu appetizer to four rolls. Dish is excellent. The staff picked up that it was my husband's birthday and provided additional cheer to our evening. The only downside is the noise level made it difficult to converse in a normal voice at times.

    Fantastic experience. Started off with the caviar potato, 10/10 and the Foie gras, 10/10. We ordered the Prime Ribeye and Swordfish. The steak was cooked perfectly. Sides were the sweet potato, creamed spinach and carrots. The sweet potato was massive and the other two sides are easily shareable. Could have split just one side, maybe two. Martini was a 10/10. Our server Bernardo was outstanding and very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend.
