This was a great brunch and starting with the grapefruit and juniper spritz set the right tone because they were perfectly balanced. I hate cocktails that throw off the balance with alcohol. Baked scallops, great flavor; lobster pasta I highly recommend because the sauce could be eaten by itself it’s so good; smoke salmon Benedict was done to perfection and the highlight for me was the addition of avocado and a very thin super crispy muffin! I always think muffins are too big so that was a big plus for me.

May need to try more dishes, however the fried fish sandwich was okay, a large fillet, although $32 is awfully steep. Also had the fish and chips, same price. Service was amazing, wait staff was very attentive and cordial. The atmosphere on the patio is nice, although the noise from annoyingly loud sports cars & motorcycles does tend to be a hindrance. Parking is available North of the restaurant, either directly behind it or up the hill. Metro bus stops right outside for easy transit access, too.

Our server Tess was excellent and provided great communication and service. The food was very fresh and very tasty. This place is not cheap but for the quality of the food it was appropriately priced. I really enjoyed the whole lobster but next time will probably get the roll. The Tiramisu for desert was excellent.

Ordered the fish and chips, half dozen oysters, and clam chowder. I like the Boston location more but this is not bad.
Parking is plentiful in the back, which is rare in LA.

so cute!!! but oh my gosh it was basically empty on a sunday night and it took 3 hours from the time we got seated to paying our bill and we only ordered 3 “simple” things. almost funny. luckily not in a hurry. 😂 we got oysters. yum! and the crab lump toast was INSANELY GOOD. highly recommend. then we had to do the tin fish. honestly. was fine. it was literally the same patagonia tinned fish i buy at rei and camp with. ha. but yeah def try the place. but know it is very slow service. but our waitress was super kind and knowledgeable though hostess was not tooooo friendly

OVERPRICED!!!!! To begin with. I ordered $36 dollars wrap crab and it came two tiny pieces with a tiny piece of crab. My husband ordered a salad came old lettuce with JALAPENOS? OMG!!!The service was terrible. The waiter with an attitude. If i knew the dish was less than an appetizer size i would not go there. This is a restaurant for who has no clue about food.

The oysters are a must. 🤯 the Dixon and oishi were my favorite oysters. The lobster roll did not disappoint me it was not to buttery it was perfect.
Ask for Alex! He was very knowledgeable about the menu. The seafood tower was fantastic. We built our own from the Raw Bar menu. We will definitely visit Saltie Girl again in LA and check it out in Boston!

So here’s the deal. I liked our server. She had a fun chill cool vibe, but the whole closing at 9 thing was mental. We booked for 8 and by the time we were on our second course, they basically told us to not let the door hit our ass on the way out. I was a waiter for longer than I would like to admit, and I get wanting to get the hell out of there, but this place is open what? 4-5 hours out of the day? Didn’t even get offered dessert. The food was incredible but how rushed out I felt made me question whether I would go back. Idk mixed feelings for sure, because she was actually very friendly, it was just weird man. The scallop shooters were incredible tho

Great Food, Disappointing Service — A Missed Opportunity
Saltie Girl has a well-earned reputation for exceptional food, and in that regard, it delivered. Every dish that came out of the kitchen was flavorful and beautifully presented — the oysters, in particular, were a standout.
Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the service.
After ordering a bottle of wine, it took over 20 minutes for our server to return, only to inform us that the manager would be retrieving the wine. Another 10 minutes passed before she reappeared — not with the wine we ordered, but with a different, more expensive bottle. Rather than apologizing for the mix-up or offering it at the original price as a courtesy, the switch was presented matter-of-factly. A gesture of goodwill here would have gone a long way.
To make matters worse, our oyster order was mishandled — not once, but twice — with incorrect counts and missing varieties. For a restaurant that charges premium prices, these details matter. Guests expect not only excellent food, but also attentive, polished service to match.
In the end, the meal was delicious, but the experience left a bitter aftertaste. I truly hope management takes this feedback seriously and invests in training their staff. As much as I enjoyed the food, I won’t be returning until the service rises to the level of the kitchen. Dining here should feel seamless — not like a constant series of corrections.
