Our meal here was very enjoyable and delicious! It wasn't too crowded on a Thursday evening though reservations are still recommended. Drinks and entrees were not too expensive. The menu is rather limited but has a good choice for all types of food from fish to a good hangar steak. The truffle fries are served piping hot and good. Good bread accompanies the meal and desserts are tasty and reasonably priced. Not far from I 95 N or S and on the edge of the Main Street area in Old Saybrook. Service is excellent.

Subdued and calming atmosphere, and service is efficient, especially if you're in a rush to make a show at the nearby Ivoryton theater. Unfortunately, the food was substandard. The $50 ribeye was greasy, fatty and a low-grade cut of meat. Duck also was not high-quality. Everything else was average and presented so so. It felt like they cut corners. The highlight was the squash soup which was actually pretty good. I really want to like the place, but for $75 a person we expected more than bar-quality food

I reserved a private room for an event during the brunch time. This is my third time having an event at Fresh Salt. Ellen, Liz and other staff were all super accommodating, easy to work with and helped us with another memorable event. Heather was designated to our room and was great at keeping things smooth. The buffet was delicious, plenty of variety for all my picky eaters. Everything was fresh and beautifully presented. Our cake (special order) was spectacular. The raspberry mouse filling was delightful, refreshing and so moist. Thank you for meeting all our needs and exceeding all of our expectations yet again! Mgwis,Thank you kindly, it is rewarding to all of our team to receive your compliments. I will be sure to share your positive thoughts with our entire staff, particularly our brunch and pastry chefs, sales and banquet team members who worked closely with your event.
