    Our late lunch early dinner was fabulous on New Year's Day 2025. Our waitress, Barbara, was very friendly, energetic, helpful and wonderfully nice-she gets all the kudos for a great visit. We will definitely return to Fresh Salt.

    Each visit to Liv’s has been wonderful. Their local oysters are fantastic, fresh and delicious. Each course is nicely presented by the chefs and well paced by their experienced waiters. We enjoyed the oyster sampler and Cesar salad followed by the Moroccan Cod and Seared Tuna with Wasabi Mashed potatoes. A great destination especially in the off season to enjoy locally sourced cuisine that is curated to perfection. A superb meal and great local dining experience !

    The place has delicious food!! The service is superb and with attentive staffing. I selected 3 stars for the ambiance bc it can be drafty, we played musical chairs to settle into a cozy spot. The bar gives decent pours together with a serving of chocolate torte for dessert! I highly recommend trying this place out. 💫
