    Special Easter Buffet was a whopping 120.00 a person! For that price I had some decent (not wow) food with below average table service. Dirty dishes piled up on the table, and we had to borrow items from nearby tables to get what we needed. I had an excellent omelette and all else was average. Though the place has a nice view and employees are great I was stunned by the price compared to value. I am a lifelong fan of Salty’s including having business events and a wedding reception in the family there. I’m done.

    We went to Salty's for Easter brunch and it was fantastic! We especially enjoyed the crab, prime rib, oysters and made-to-order omelets. Our service was excellent -- Dean from HI was wonderful and super friendly + attentive. Would definitely recommend their brunch buffet for a special occasion!

    First time eating here and I had the colossal king crab leg’s. So yummy! My husband had the cedar plank salmon and he loved it. We will definitely be going back next time we’re in town.

    On the reservation note, I mentioned it was my friend’s birthday. To our surprise, the best table in the house (in my opinion) was reserved and they went above and beyond. Not all restaurants even pay attention to the note section, but the table had happy birthday confetti, a card from Salty’s, and the dessert was a lovely piece of cake and a candle. Food and drinks were amazing - left with a great experience and completely satisfied.

    We went to Salty’s for a birthday celebration. I love seafood and love that there’s plenty of it during the Sunday Brunch Buffet. Spectacular views and incredible service.
