“I’ve loved Saltfish on CB for years, but the new owners have really kicked it up to a whole new level. I hate to make it more difficult to get a reservation in this cute little tiki bar, but I gotta sing their praises. The service and food have gone from ‘really good’ to ‘omg I’m gonna dream about this meal forever’. I’m currently obsessed with their scallops- they’re served with a stunning curry sauce, fragrant rice, fresh citrus slaw, and Maduros. It’s a beautiful meal and perfectly executed every time. Last night we got the coconut shrimp app, the scallops and their chicken katsu, and then finished it off with their homemade rum cake with candied pineapple and fresh whipped cream. Everything was just incredible. They’re staffed better than they used to be- service is quick and friendly. Expansive menu of tiki drinks. Definitely recommend reservations even in the off season- it’s a tiny spot with limited seating. 10000/10 definitely recommend this little gem.“

“This place really fits the need for a good, simple, and affordable breakfast spot. Our service was phenomenal and the food was perfect and quite good for the price. It definitely feels like a small family place, and there were some spots that just felt a little worse for wear, but nothing that majorly distracted from the experience but enough to hesitate for 5 stars. Definitely would go back and quite good coffee for a small place!“

“The food was delicious. The best I had all week during our trip. And the price was really great too. Not overpriced like a couple restaurants in the area. The only issue we had was that there was no waiting area that was comfortable. They have benches out front but the sun made it too hot to sit there and there is no waiting area inside the restaurant.“

“My boys and I had dinner here on Saturday after the music festival. There was a short 15-minute wait to get a table, but it was well worth the wait. Our server was wonderful, and on top of everything. We never had to ask for anything, and refills were on the table before we were out. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was fun and welcoming, and the raspberry margaritas are the best I've ever had. Definitely going back on my next trip! Best meal we had on the Island this weekend!“
