    The Bitches say: B-. Fresh Salt is a good neighborhood spot downtown. Both the fare and ambiance are comfortable and straightforward, but sometimes a low key brunch is all you crave on a weekend! Read more

    Went on a Sunday and there was no table service for dinner, which sucked. However the food was delicious and affordable. Definitely upgrade from salad to mac and cheese if you get a sandwich.

    Great atmosphere, on the less expensive side, fast service, and good food - had eggs with thick cut bacon. Tucked away in Fidi, will go again for lunch and drinks!

    Get the S(peck) A(vocado) L(ettuce) T(omato) sandwich. Splurge on the Mac & Cheese side for $3 and ask for Cholula sauce

    the lox entree is amazing. the service is good and the ambience is friendly and casual. Rita is amazing. the only disappointing item is the mimosa - not worth the price. Get the bloody Mary instead.

    Long-time SS+K happy hour spot with a down-to-earth "locals" feel. Don't overlook the food; try the hummus plate and the turkey/brie sandwich.

    Can't go wrong with the SALT sandwich. Love that this place has retained its normalcy in the middle of the Seaport craze.

    I like the bar but it was a little loud when I went. The 3 dudes talking really loudly at the bar was not pleasant. Drinks were decent.
