    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!

    Fantastic meal and experience. I had French onion soup and Ribeye - best I have ever tasted for both. My wife had Scallops - best we have ever tasted. Service was great. Meal fantastic. Upper tier pricing, but beyond upper tier experience. We are looking forward to our trip to Amelia Island and our first reservation will be at David’s.

    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!

    This was not our first time dining at Salt. What is amazing is that the staff remembers us from previous visits. We are always assured that our dinner will be presented and cooked magnificently. We are enthusiastically anticipating the newly remodeled Salt to open later this month!!!
