Red Salt offers a diverse dining experience, catering to both dinner and breakfast cravings. The menu features a variety of dishes, including a scallop appetizer, sticky ribs, lobster gnocchi, blue crab crusted monchong, and hoisin braised short ribs. The entrees are generous in portion, though some guests found the scallops lacking in seasoning and others mentioned a bit of inattentive service. The restaurant also offers a tasting menu, allowing diners to experience the chef's culinary skills, with food cooked exceptionally well and delicious flavors.
The place has a cool old school hotel vibe with a modern twist, creating a great atmosphere. Many guests appreciate the vegetarian options, especially the crispy tofu, and some suggest returning for the pretzel bread. The sushi is highly praised, with most of the fish sourced locally, showcasing the talent of the skilled sushi chefs. The staff is accommodating and attentive, happy to cater to dietary restrictions, making the overall experience enjoyable. Visitors often find Red Salt to be a favorite spot during their trips, with each visit seeming to improve.
For breakfast, the acai bowl is a popular and light start to the day. However, the espresso-based drinks, such as the cappuccino and mocha, have been disappointing in quality and preparation. The restaurant is known for its excellent food and wonderful service, with the staff working very well together. Customers have enjoyed the farm-fresh, locally grown ingredients, the gluten-free options, and the special touches for celebrations. Recent reviews highlight exceptional service from staff members, with many praising the knowledge and attentiveness of servers. The dishes ordered, including the lobster gnocchi and house made ricotta with honey, received great feedback, and guests were delighted by the Hawaiian bread pudding for dessert.
