Salt – Seafood

Salt captures the raw, elemental beauty of the coast, welcoming guests into an airy sanctuary where the briny scent of the tide mingles with the warmth of a bustling open kitchen. The kitchen honors the purity of the catch, presenting glistening towers of chilled shellfish alongside tender fillets seared to a golden crisp and finished with a flourish of the restaurant’s namesake mineral. Each visit feels like a refined seaside escape, where the rhythmic shucking of oysters and the pour of crisp, cold wine celebrate the simple elegance of the ocean.
