    Salt's revamp of the menu and remodel are both amazing! We had a few different things from the menu and each one was perfect. The Wagyu beef was tasty and tender, with the side items being flavorful, too! We tried one of the new appetizers (the tuna) and were very impressed. We will be back soon.

    Excellent evening with great food and wonderful service. The wine list was broad and excellent. My wife and I shared the lamb bolognese and braised short ribs and both were outstanding. Bolognese portion was big enough for two. And the meals were served unbelievably quickly. We are looking forward to eating here again!

    Our dinner at BarZin was very good. We had scallops and shrimp risotto, along with brussels sprouts and grilled calamari. Unfortunately, the calamari was terrible. It was not grilled at all, cool to taste and seemed like it was just sautéed in a pan. Our server was wonderful, professional and attentive. The ambiance was very loud so just to talk across the table was a bit difficult. The worst part of the ambiance was to have 2 TVs going in the dining room which were distracting and felt like a TGIFs vibe. For the prices paid for a nice dinner, I would not expect TVs to be playing and it should be kept in the 'bar scene' not dining room. I don't think we will rush back.

    Coast is the main restaurant at the Ritz Carlton. So is you dine early, there will probably be a good number of kids running around. However, if the weather allows, you can eat outside (covered) so that the noise isn’t as much of an issue. The food and service are both excellent. Blake is an amazing waiter!
