Odd experience. No signage on an old house off the square. Nice enough on the inside. Excellent food but very small portions. My wife and I excitedly spent over $200 but I left barely satisfied. She had only one drink I had none. I had a dozen tiny gulf oysters to myself, the crab cake to myself, and steak and lobster to myself. The lobster was about 4 to 5 tiny bites (2oz) flooded in a buttery goo. It was good goo though. The steak while excellent also 5 to 6 bites around (3 to 4oz) . My crab cake was ordered at the end of my meal as I was still hungry. My wife ordered a pasta dish and asked for bread and was told none was available. She was brought some small bread wafer which laughingly proportionately complimented the meal sizes. I did not take pics of the plates but please look at pics others posted. The portions are note worthy! if you like a filling meal this is not the place. The only reasonable portions I noticed was noodles and mashed potatoes on plates I saw. Our server wanted to take all our order at once even after I stated we would do appetizers first. She then brought a hand held machine and ran my card at the table before providing a bill where I complete the tip on her machine with her hovering over me. No receipt showing our charges before payment and no print out of final receipt is given. This is crude in any setting let alone upscale. 5 star if you can provide reasonable meal portions, relax the speed in which you attempt to flip tables (we were in and out in under an hour) and get rid of the silly hand check out machine. Give me a receipt printed in some kind of cute presentation like all upscale restaurants i’ve been into provide. This was a first like this for me in a nice place. This could be a 5 star place. The portions and pay out truly ruin it. Easy fix to a...
Read moreAte here the first time last week with friends. The “speak easy” room we waited on our table in was fun and Austin makes amazing hand crafted cocktails that are delicious. You can visit the speak easy without having dinner but it is a small area if you have a very large group. Our group of 6 was seated in a private room and Daniel our waiter was spot on with service. We started with the Blue oysters which tasted very fresh. Hubby had the special of fried chicken with lobster chunks and I had the salad with crab stuffed avocado. Both were filling and we felt just right portion wise. We had a crème brûlée for dessert and it had just the right amount of crust on the top and our friend cheesecake looked amazing we will try it next time. We very much enjoyed our dinner and realized we had been there for 3 hours and not once did the staff make us feel rushed even though we closed the place down. It’s great to have such upscale dining options in Weatherford. I would recommend a reservation and it sits in a house with no sign so you just have to go with the address. The only downside I have is it is very difficult to find parking as we all had to drive around to find a spot and walk back to the restaurant. So I would drop off by the door for anyone not...
Read moreAnother amazing meal at Salt!
This was our second visit to Salt and we were joined by another couple who've been here with us before.
We started out in the Speakeasy with pre-dinner cocktails. The chairs and sofas are real comfortable. There were some people at the bar and that made it pretty noisy in there. But the drinks were enjoyable and the bartender was great.
We transitioned to dinner in the small room off the front entry door. We'd reserved the 4-top in the center of the room like we did last time. Perfect spot.
Our server here once again was Rian. She is amazing. She knows the menu well and as always is quite pleasant and helpful.
We ordered drinks and thought about the menu. Then we ordered appetizers and our meals.
The 4 of us ordered as appetizers: Shrimp Cargo Scallops Bowl of Shrimp and Crab Chowder
For dinner, we ordered: Sea Bass plus Wedge Salad plus 4 Coconut Shrimp Bacon wrapped Shrimp with Grits Avocado and Crab Salad plus Lobster Mac and Cheese Beef Tenderloin Medallions
The food was amazing and the portions sizes were great.
We were too full for dessert and took leftovers home. After dinner, we went back to the speakeasy for a nightcap.
Looking forward to our next...
