   Salt at Geist delivers good food in a casual setting. The menu is seafood heavy but with significant options to provide the diners with choices. They offer numerous appetizers and several salad options. Of particular note was the artichoke crab pot. My only critique involves a rather limited wine list. The wines offered were quality wines but I would have preferred to see a more expansive wine list. Our server was excellent and attentive. All in all a very pleasant evening and a good meal.

   This was our first time visiting Salt. It was much more spacious inside than I thought it would be, yet still felt comfortable & warm due to having different seating areas vs one big open room. We really liked the lighting and the decor, there was music in the background that wasn’t too overwhelming yet still made it feel like a fun Friday night.  The ambiance alone makes me excited to dine there again. My daughter and I shared four appetizers and liked each one. Our favorite was the poke … beautiful presentation, and the rice underneath was addictive. The only preference I would have next time is no Sriracha mayo drizzled on it, instead just a little of that caramel soy they put under the rice. The calamari was nice and crunchy … it had good flavor on its own, but the dipping sauce was also good.  The spicy tuna roll was nice & fresh, lovely presentation. Our least favorite of the four were the dumplings. They were really good, but didn’t need to be served in the citrus chile sauce. Maybe just squeeze a bit of it over the dumplings versus filling the bottom of the dish with it? Every dish that went by us to other tables looked amazing.  Next time I’m excited to try the oysters Rockefeller and lamb lollipops, plus the skillet bread.

   The food was awesome. The service not so much. Our server was MIA most of the evening. He wasn’t very attentive and not knowledgeable about the menu when it came to gluten free. I’m not sure if he was new there because it was our first time. So I have nothing to compare this to. Next time we will try the other location. You would think that management would pay attention to the floor and if people are looking around for their server. We got there at 5:15pm and was there until well after 7pm. Dinner for two people.

   The experience was very great. Me and my girlfriend attended for Valentines Day Dinner and the vibes were good and the food and drinks were great. I had the Parmesan Crusted Chilean Sea Bass w/ Parmesan Risotto/ Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Lemon Butter Sauce. My girlfriend got the Salmon w/ Mashed Potatoes/ Sautéed Asparagus and Citris Chili Sauce.

   We dined at Salt at Geist on Valentines Day. We had sea bass and halibut respectively. Both were cooked to perfection and I would have no trouble recommending. Service was very good. My wife raved about the lobster bisque however for my taste it was average at best. I enjoy dining there.

   So wonderful. The food was a bit pricier than an “average” dinner spot. It was absolutely worth it! The food was INCREDIBLY good. The service was also incredubly good. The lobster bisque was the best I’ve had in a land locked state. Best since I lived on the East Coast. We throughly enjoyed our experience. My wife and I were able to get a date night without our 4 kids so we were already excited. The food and service put our night over the top. We will definately be going back. From the prices, we will not be bringing our kids along anytime soon. As with our bunch we’d probably have to spend upwards of $300-$400 on dinner. Which, for we regular people, is rediculously out of touch. Not to complain about the prices, as stated previously, Salt is ABSOLUTELY worth it! Wonderful wonderful food. We will be going back in a few months after we save money for it.
