The chowder was rich and flavorful, and the lump crab toast was absolutely delicious. Everyone at our table loved their meals. The staff was attentive and welcoming, making the whole dining experience even better.

Martinis were top notch, the chowder was second to none and the lobster roll was top 2 and not 2. If I comeback to Boston it’s because I’m coming to Saltie Girls.

We loved the tinned fish variety. Excellent clam chowder!

We made a reservation at Salty Girl after seeing so many people on TikTok recommending it....we were NOT disappointed! The restaurant looks gorgeous and the atmosphere was great. We got great service from the girls at the front and the waitress at our table. We ordered the lobster roll and the truffle fries. Both were fantastic. The bread was warm and soft, the lobster was tasty and the truffle fries were excellent. We then shared the chocolate chip cookie with a little vanilla ice cream. The cookie was tasty and the ice cream was too. I would definitely add this to my list of must-do things in Boston.

We went on Saturday afternoon, an unseasonably warm day. Newberry was bustling and Saltie Girl had a waitlist. Text confirmation estimated 1hour 45 minutes. That was fine! We went leisurely shopping. About an hour later I noticed Saltie Girl texted me about ten minutes after we left that my table was ready! Big difference between ten and 1hour 45 minutes! We hustled back, but the dark haired, bearded host was boldly unsympathetic. Clearly this was MY fault for not understanding that 105 minutes could easily become 10. So, one star for service thanks to that non-customer-focused dude.
We did eventually get a table (btw that estimated 45 minute wait mysteriously became 5. Good thing we hadn’t gone far this time.)
It’s a cool old place to eat. Our server was awesome. Really cool blend of old and new decor.
You’re going to pay Newberry prices. Some of the food did not live up to the high rent premium, unfortunately. Lobster roll breads were soggy. I had the signature spicy fried lobster roll, which was NOT spicy. Daughter had a side of chips which was literally a trick or treat sized bag of chips.
I’m glad we tried it but no reason to return.

The icing on the cake for a bachelorette trip! Nino was nothing short of wonderful, we felt he was really approachable, respectful, and considerate during our brunch, would 10/10 recommend!! Please ask for Nino :) oops literally forgot about the lobster rolls they were amazing, so much food I could have split it with another lassie! Good music and tunes too. Amazing all around.

Is this a tourist trap type place? Where do local people go for a decent dinner?
Food was meh... Tuna carpaccio - extremely salty, was hard to eat. Oysters - got MA ones, they were good. Halibut - decent. Tiramisu - I would skip.
Service was meh also. Tables inside are way close together. Server looking after the table next to ours had her bottom in my face the whole time. It was just not good.. overall staff is friendly and responsive. I wish I tipped better but was pretty disappointed with the food and overall experience.
Atmosphere is decent. Place is nicely styled.

Best lobster roll ever.

Menu is great, restaurant has a ton of potential but execution is mid. Saw this spot online and it’s def great for instagram but vibes were off. The table we had was in a pretty busy but small dining room, felt very much like a tourist trap. At one point a server a came up to our table reached across our food without saying anything and took a drink menu to give to the nearby table. There were a few other examples of rushed or subpar service that occurred throughout. All were minor and fine if I was eating in a diner but not at these prices. The caviar martini had a ton of caviar but very little alcohol somehow. The linguini vongole is cream based dish, like a lot of cream and that’s just not how you make linguine vongole. We ordered two Jonah crab claws and we got basically 1.5 claws because one was a whole claw and the other was cut in half. Such a shame! The tin fish menu and wine list was cool, but service and preparation of food really falls flat.

Called over 12 times and went directly to voicemail. Management no longer cares about customers—it’s getting plenty of profits from being a tourist trap. A must try despite being Ridiculously and Unjustifiably pricey.
Special thanks to Chris, team and ambiance. Insane tinned fish collection !

A group of eight of us discovered this gem while enjoying some downtown adventures during our bachelorette weekend getaway. Despite our large party, the staff accommodated us promptly and with ease. The atmosphere was chic, cozy, and perfect for a celebratory day. Service was attentive, and the manager even stopped by our table to offer friendly conversation and thoughtful recommendations. The food and cocktails were fantastic—definitely on the higher end price-wise, but well worth it. I had the Little Gem Salad, and it was absolutely delicious.
