   Went here for the New Year’s Eve celebration. Could not have asked for anything better. All staff were professional. At one point the AC cycled on and I got a little chilly. They immediately moved us. The food was incredible. Was a very joyous New Year’s Eve. Will definitely go back next year.

   Great experience for our anniversary dinner. Food and service was amazing. It was not overly quiet but enough for us to talk.

   We came to Saltine last minute on a Friday night and it was great! Ellie, our server, was super attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. To start, we got the truffle fries and tuna poke. The truffle fries were flavorful, hot, and crispy. The tuna poke was very fresh and they gave a large amount of fish especially for the price. I was very pleased with the starters. For entree’s, I got the poached lobster pasta and my partner got the braised short rib. Per some dietary restrictions, I asked for a less cream in the sauce and they were super accommodating. The pasta had a good and flavorful sauce with some crispy pancetta and a large lobster tail to top it off. Absolutely no complaints about my meal. My partners braised short rib was “one of the best meals he’s had in a while” and cleaned the plate. Overall, the restaurant was clean, inviting, and had great food. We definitely will be returning!

   Ordered a 3 course meal and didn’t get our drinks that we ordered when we sat down (which were just a glass of wine and a straight up vodka martini which take 30 seconds to make) until we were half way done with our entrees. I would have had more but didn’t get the opportunity. I ordered a Tito’s up a little dirty and it was all olive brine with no garnish, but I waited so long for it, I didn’t dare ask for another due to the wait for the 1st one. They were also out of the dessert that was on the menu.

    Great place to go! We come every year for Christmas dinner. P.E.I. Mussels with beer and fennel broth, chorizo, white beans & kale, grilled focaccia - I should have asked for no beans, that’s my fault I didn’t notice the menu but I have never seen beans with mussels before. The grilled focaccia that came with it was so good!!! The She crab soup was delicious. I ordered the Baby Iceberg Wedge - black garlic ranch, baby heirloom tomato, pickled red onion, house queso fresco, bacon lardon. It was good but it was served with their house balsamic vinaigrette instead (covered not on the side) we didn’t have time to even address it because it came out late and we had our 3 small children with us. I got a dirty martini with dinner and it was great, my husband had a coke and unfortunately we had to ask every single time for a refill, server never noticed and asked or just brought a refill. No steak knife given with the 8oz filet mignon, No huge deal and it was Christmas but $180 later… 🤔
