Beautiful atmosphere. Variety of food choices for those who are Gluten and Dairy free. The Pork Chop was amazing, and the bartender even made me a martini that was not on menu. Service was very good too, Highly recommend.
Upon arrival, we were ushered into a previously unfamiliar small, crowded, and, ultimately noisy dining room. Tables were way too close to one another and we were as much a part of our neighbor's conversation as we were our own. Server took too long to greet us, never brought the promised rolls and butter. He seemed a bit overwhelmed... That said, the food was superb. Of special note was the extensive wine list, the arugula and anchovy salad, the swordfish special. Sorry, no room for dessert (but maybe that's a good thing).
We thoroughly enjoyed our Sunday brunch at Fresh Salt! The lobster extravaganza had several unique and delicious selections and abundant lobster. We had a nice table overlooking the water. Our waitress, Kristen, was excellent! All the servers and cooks were extremely helpful and friendly. My wife has a gluten allergy and she had several delicious choices and the staff also made another special dish to accommodate her allergy. We felt very welcomed and will definitely be back in the future!
The food was very good. The service was friendly, but the server made a couple of mistakes. The manager comped our bottle of wine to accommodate the errors.
We love the Chef at Fresh Salt. His food is always delicious and there is a wide variety of choices for more casual or more elaborate meals. Very comfortable atmosphere, excellent service, and beautiful dining room.
The food at Fresh Salt is consistently excellent. In this visit I enjoyed monk fish which I highly recommend! Also the seaside location is lovely.
My husband and I had been given a gift card to Fresh Salt a while ago. We invited two good friends to join us for dinner at the end of October so that we could share our gift with them. This was our first time having dinner at Fresh Salt. The ambience is quintessential New England and the staff was wonderful! The manager lit the fireplace for us because we had mentioned that we were cold which was so thoughtful. We also had a lovely table looking out at the water. Our food was very good, typical of a fine New England restaurant. It was a bit pricey, though. My husband ordered the fish and chips and said he thought the meal was average. I ordered the swordfish which was very good but a bit too thick for my taste. One of our party ordered the pork chop and said he truly loved it. I don't remember what his wife ordered but she was also very happy with her meal. Overall, I was very impressed with the ambience and with the staff. Fresh Salt is located about 45 minutes from our home. So although I consider returning at some point, I probably wouldn't go out of my way since we have so many wonderul restaurants near us.
Always a delicious meal with wonderful service! We were a party of 4 celebrating some time together as friends. We ordered two of the swordfish specials, the siracha calamari, mushroom bruschetta, mussels and the roast chicken. Everything was perfectly cooked and came out hot! Our server was lovely and accommodating, not overbearing. We love Fresh Salt!
Excellent buffet brunch on Sunday - and this is a tradition going back decades of happy memories. The price is high and the walk from buffet to table is long, however, and the buffet now spans three rooms that are not clearly marked. I will undoubtedly return, because the food is so good and the servers so pleasant, but my little caveats continue to rankle a bit.
Maritime ambience and freshest seafood with the untamed Atlantic waves at my feet !

We were there for a private wine tasting. The location is excellent. The food, while we just had light bites was very good and it was bustling for a Wednesday afternoon in October.

One of our favorite places in the Shore. We go after Goodspeed plays, boat cruises or just to have a great meal. Service is good, innovated menu with excellent standards.
