“Such great service but even more so, the chefs are incredible with their creativity and delivery of unique and delicious food. Liv's is an oasis away from home....they do so much to make dinner special every time. Thank you all.“

“Myrcene is a hidden gem within Old Saybrook! We recently hosted a graduation party here with about 50 guests and it was the PERFECT spot to host a party. The owners are incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating. They kept all of their delicious beers, wines, ciders and seltzers flowing for our guests and allowed us to bring in our own food and desserts (this was a game changer for us when looking for a spot to host a party locally). From the time we set up to the time we cleaned up the owners offered to help and were always there to see if we needed anything. The inside space is perfect for a gathering, plus they have a wonderful outside space too for guests to sit and relax and play lawn games. I can’t recommend them enough for your next party or just for a local meet up with friends and family for a delicious drink!“

“It’s our go to place for a great start to our weekends!! The owner is wonderful and her staff is amazing.“

“Randy had clam fritters that he said were delicious and I had clam strips that were lightly breaded. The breading was thin and fluffy and tasted great. The restaurant is so clean and bright with seating outside too. We will return.“

“Fresh Salt delivers a terrific dining experience from start to finish. The atmosphere is relaxed but elegant, with a beautiful view that sets the tone before you even sit down. The food was outstanding, fresh and thoughtfully prepared, with flavors that felt both coastal and comforting. What really made the evening, though, was the staff. Our server, Darcy was attentive without being intrusive, warm, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely welcoming. The entire wait staff worked together seamlessly, creating a sense of ease throughout the meal. It’s the kind of place where you feel taken care of. Highly recommend for a leisurely lunch, special dinner, or any time you want to slow down and enjoy a meal made and served with care.“

“everything was good except the Rhode Island clam chowder , they need to put real clams in instead of ground up tiny specs very disappointed yesterday in the chowder all we got was broth and potatoes with tiny bits of clam“

“Chelsea and Dave are wonderful owners. They really take time to know their customers and make sure they are happy. I have celiac disease so they are very good when it comes to helping with what I can and can't eat. All their Italian ice are gluten free and and soft serve ice cream is as well.
