About The Salty Dog

The Salty Dog is a popular spot in Amherstburg, especially on busy days like Mother’s Day. Despite the crowds, the delicious food and great service make the wait worth it. The staff is polite and lovely, ensuring a top-notch experience. Visitors enjoy phenomenal drinks like sangria and margaritas, paired with tasty dishes such as tacos, lobster dip, and beet salad. Many guests say the food is fantastic, with some calling the New Yorker pizza the best they’ve ever had and praising the grilled salad with salmon. The buffalo chicken wing tacos are recommended for their full buffalo chicken flavor without being too spicy. The restaurant is a consistent favorite for many, especially when Everett is their server, as he always remembers guests and makes the atmosphere enjoyable. Customers also mention the Salty Dog burger, which delivers bold, savory flavor with a juicy, well-seasoned 8oz ground chuck patty and rich pork belly. The burger is complemented by aioli, pickled red onion, arugula, and a toasted bun, creating a flavorful and satisfying meal. The hand-cut fries, seasoned with parmesan and cooked to a crunch, are a highlight and part of the experience. Overall, many find the restaurant to be a comfortable and enjoyable place to dine repeatedly.
