Nice and quaint. I loved the chicken and red velvet waffle and the catfish was 👌🏾! I tasted my friend's green tea shot and that didn't disappoint either. That Devil's Margarita was perfect too! The atmosphere score is a bit lower only because you can't really talk because the music volume. But still, great experience and we're planning to go again.

The waitresses were very polite and professional. I ordered medium WELL lambchops but they were more on the medium side. After one tiny bite I told a waitress I didn't like the texture and was told they couldn't do anything about it but microwave them. The shimp and wings were tasty. The music was absolutely too loud. We had to literally yell over the music to talk. The bathroom was very small and crowded. Overall, the experience was just ok.

Everything is extremely overpriced and exaggerated with I believe 3 different taxes added to get even more. Other than that, it’s ok.

Salt Bistro Bar: A Five-Star Experience for Food, Atmosphere, and Entertainment

Salt Bistro Bar delivers an exceptional dining and entertainment experience that deserves high praise. From the moment you walk in, the welcoming and professional staff set the tone for an upscale evening. They are attentive, courteous, and highly knowledgeable about the menu, ensuring every question is met with expertise and enthusiasm.

The venue itself is a modern, clean, and chic space with a sophisticated vibe. The ambiance is elevated further by an outstanding DJ who masterfully mixes diverse tunes, blending R&B, Blues, and Rap. The DJ’s ability to interact with the crowd as a hype man makes the environment lively and inclusive, creating a sense of connection among guests.

While the atmosphere is noteworthy, the food is where Salt Bistro Bar truly shines. For a bar and grill, the quality far exceeds expectations, with fresh, high-end ingredients and flavors that rival five-star establishments. The Salmon Egg Rolls are a highlight—seasoned to perfection, fried to a crispy golden brown, and packed with bold, delicious flavors. Paired with the house-made remoulade sauce, a spicy and creamy complement, these egg rolls are nothing short of award-worthy.

Equally impressive are the Buffalo Egg Rolls, which offer a creamy, flavorful filling encased in a crispy, seasoned shell. Both dishes are a testament to the culinary expertise at Salt Bistro Bar.

If you visit on a Friday, don’t miss the $7 tea specials. With options like White Tea, Green Tea, Mexican Tea, and Orange Tea, there’s something for every palate, and each one is absolutely delightful.

In summary, Salt Bistro Bar sets the bar high for both food and entertainment. Whether you’re here for a meal, drinks, or the vibrant atmosphere, it’s a place you’ll want to return to again and again. Highly recommended!

What a fun Memphis brunch experience! The menu is varied enough to please everyone, at a cost that wasn't outrageous. I had the amazing Lamb and grits, and they were grilled exactly as I ordered. The music is loud, and there was a live DJ, with several larger parties of people, so if you're not looking for that kind of experience, you may want to go elsewhere. In all, the drinks were boozy and nicely mixed, the food was bomb, and the atmosphere was lit. We're in our 40s, (but not squares) and very much enjoyed the music and seeing everyone have a great time. Please note that the 4 stars for service is mainly indicative of wait times; the place was packed for Sunday brunch, and our server was doing her absolute best. We didn't mind flagging her down for our second round of drinks, and she was as attentive as possible for having packed full sections. REMEMBER TO TIP YOUR SERVER!!

We went for Saturday Brunch and the food was fabulous! I had the French Toast w/Catfish. My husband had The Salt Breakfast w/pancakes. Both were delicious 😋 The drinks were good and so was the service. The atmosphere is nice however, the music is entirely too loud and lends itself to a club environment. If you like that type of environment for brunch, you will LOVE it there.
