SALT 2.0 — Restaurant in Brookfield

I was really excited about Salt 2.0. I kept hearing commercials on the radio and it seemed like it was going to fill a need in Brookfield Center. My husband and I went on a whim and we decided to dine in. The eating area is clean, comfortable and modern. We were the only ones there at the time. I ordered the cheesesteak quesadilla and my husband ordered some other variation of quesadilla, I can’t quite remember which. However, sadly we were very under-whelmed. Considering how the commercial built my expectations up, I was expecting a flavor explosion and it was just “OK”. My husband agreed. The food was without significant flavor and the portions were small considering the price. If our experience stopped there, I wouldn’t have written a review and just let it go. However I had already ordered 2 $25 gift certificates from their radio promo and I hadn’t received them yet. When I did, I gave 1 to my daughter and 1 to my son. We didn’t say anything about our experience there or how we felt about the food. When my daughter and her boyfriend went they too were underwhelmed. He got a grain bowl and said the rice was undercooked and still a bit hard. They too said flavor was missing. Then my son took his friend with the other certificate and he said the food is bland and for the price, the sizes are small. He said there was nothing special that would bring him back there again instead of another chain restaurant that offers grain bowls. When I asked my sister if she had been, her and her husband said they had been there as well and again, she said the food was bland & it took too long to prepare. I held off leaving a review for quite a while because I felt badly. But 9 of us had the same experience. I wholeheartedly support local businesses however I also feel like people should have the option to read a review and decide if they want to go based on other’s experiences. My take away is this, the concept is great. But it’s a small enough menu that those selections should be amazing and bursting with flavor. The prices are on the higher end and with so many restaurants to choose from within 10 miles either way, nothing makes Salt 2.0 stand out. My feeling is if I can make it just as good or better at home, I’m not going to frequent a restaurant. Salt 2.0 has a way to go in terms of flavor. I hope they can improve because it’s a nice location and I like seeing the local...

Nice place tucked away in the Four Corners area. The inside was very clean and they had a large menu. We had ground beef burritos and chicken and cheese quesadillas. The burrito was served with a little side of salsa and I paid extra for a side sour cream. The burrito was delicious! The meat was seasoned very well and the chipotle sauce they put on it gives it a real kick. I didn’t find it too spicy but one of my friends complained it was way too spicy for her. I tried a bit of the quesadilla and it was good too. Very plain for me but nice if you don't like any spice. I didn’t like the salsa however my friends all thought it was fine. Our biggest issue was the wait. My food came out pretty fast (we ordered in 3 separate transactions) but my friends took probably 20 minutes to get their orders. There were other people who ordered after us who probably waited even longer. The cashier was very apologetic and explained they were incredibly short staffed with only two people working that night. I’d recommend calling in your order ahead of time so the wait isn’t as long since I’ve heard they are usually short staffed. Overall i’d definitely recommend! The food was good and there is something for everyone. Just order ahead to save some...

Edited Salt co needs to step in and do an actual remodel or just give up in this location. Having been to a different Salt 2.0 I can say this one is a major step down. Theres no food counter Edit* (akin to places like buckaboos, Chipotle etc where you can see the items as they prepare your order. Everything is hidden in back) at this location so you can't even see what youre options look like before you order and staffing is bare minimum. When i went it the place was empty and the vibe just wasn't there.

I ordered a quesadilla since they're nearly foolproof to pull off and boy was i wrong. This was one of the worst ones I had ever come across. Tasted bad all around and does the cheese come in frozen because something tasted freezer burned without a doubt.

1st and last visit to this location and after expecting better from the other one I visited. I hope anyone reading this hears me when I say, avoid this place. Even salsa fresca down near Stews is wayyyyyy better and they are just mid in my book. Run don't walk, far away from this place lol. Check the...
