All the food was delicious, I especially enjoyed the lamb Rogan Josh. I asked for spicy, and was not disappointed. The garlic naan and ghee paratha went great with the curry. The owner was very nice and came out to check on us.“

“Great fresh food with a lot of options. Plan ahead on weekends, you should expect hour plus wait times once you are seated for your food. We come here frequently for breakfast - it’s faster to order takeout for sure.“

“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.“
