Salt Cafe & Bar — Restaurant in Port MacDonnell

Fresh seafood, amazing view of sea and lovely ambience. Had my first ever lobster at this place, and it was simply fabulous. It is a hidden gem in Port Macdonnel. Visited Mount Gambier and was craving fresh seafood. It was about 25 minutes drive from Mount Gambier, and worth it. It's easy to distinguish if the seafood is stale or not well cooked. This place checked my personal quality checks, and l was flabbergasted with this taste as well as quality. Ordered fresh southern rock lobster of around 900gms for 3 people which was grilled with garlic butter. It was served with fries, lemon wedges and garden salad. It was really a fun experience to learn how to eat a lobster. Do give it a try and order this for sure. You would Thank me later! We also ordered oceans catch which consisted of grilled flake, panko crumbed calamari, panko prawns and herb prawn spring rolls. Quality and quantity, this was also a commendably executed dish. Lastly, ordered beer battered large flathead with chips, salad and tartare sauce. It was fresh and crisp, the way we expect it to be. We were a group of 4 people and the bill was less than $150, including ordering the luxury food- Lobster. Definitely a place to visit if visiting...

We recently dined at Salt and had an unforgettable seafood experience! The highlight of our meal was the seafood platter for two – it was absolutely amazing! Packed with fresh, locally sourced fish, tender calamari, fresh salmon, and crispy chips, every bite was a delight. The quality and freshness of the food truly stood out, making it one of the best seafood meals we’ve ever had.

The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall warm and inviting atmosphere of the restaurant. Their attentiveness and genuine smiles made our dining experience even more enjoyable.

Passed by for a coffee one morning while on a road trip and the coffee was soooo good I made a 50km trip the next day for another coffee and to try some lunch. I ordered the seafood platter for one take away (unfortunately too windy for me to sit outside with the pooch), food was fresh and delicious, and the serving huge. I also decided to purchase a takeaway salami and salad for dinner, also delicious. Best salad dressing ive had in a long time! The thing that got my attention the most was the waitress came out from behind the counter to greet me with a genuine welcome and a warm smile. As someone who has to partake in a lot of business coaching, this form of customer service is so rare nowadays and was an absolute standout for me, I'll be...
