    We celebrated a birthday on a Saturday evening at Salty's, the entire staff from the hostesses, servers, and managers working went above and beyond. It was very appreciated how the table was set up and a terrific view. Our server was very attentive and accommodating of our gluten free individual and super polite. All of our meals were amazing, Great first experience at Salty's and will definitely be back!

    Every time we visit, we have a fabulous meal. But the thing that really sets salty’s apart is the staff there. Chrissy is an absolute joy to visit. We actually feel like we are family. She’s so gracious of a hostess with us. She anticipates anything we might want or need. She’s the best and… So is salty’s!!

    Tremendous experience by the staff and cooks! From getting us a table by the window, to providing delicious dishes one after the other, we were blown away by the care and quality of the service. 10/10

    It was magical! We got a beautiful window seat, the big harvest moon was coming over the city. Our friends after all the years of living in Seattle area had never been to Saltys on Alki! What a wonderful experience for them! Yeah Open table, and getting a window seat at 430 pm! Our waiter was on top of his game, the food was delicious and the conversation and company could not have been better. An excellent experience in a beautiful restaurant.
