Salt & Pearl

You hear it over and over.. Salt & Pearl is the preferred hot spot to meet friends for a great meal in the Riv. The service, food, and atmosphere come together perfectly.. a little more on the nice side but still very approachable from the beach. Many of the menu items are what you see over and over in the village but they do a unique preparation and the quality is a cut above. Also their raw bar and oysters are always fresh and amazing. The main courses are mainly seafood.. the usual suspects are there from Mahi to Ahi, and of course salmon, fish and chips, not to mention one of the few legit lobster rolls you will find locally.. even the little things like fries and sides are the best. The mushroom dish is a great hearty option if you don't do meat. The service and atmosphere here had a great energy where you just want to come in and converse with friends and chill out for a drink or two over a great meal. When a place is always full of regulars and the favorite of so many locals who have tons of options you know Salt & Pearl is always a great option in the heart of Riviera Village. The Strawberry & Melon gin seltzer is super refreshing if you need to go back to work late and you can't day drink.. who knew they make their seltzers in house. I don't know of any place that has more local regulars and fans.. and we agree. Great seafood, drinks, service, and atmosphere.. you will enjoy yourself here to be sure. Update: great live music on Thursdays along with another amazing dinner. Finally tried the tomahawk steak and it was all that. The seafood chowder, crying tiger sashimi, and especially the BBQd oysters 3 ways were all amazing. An impressive lineup of starters and raw bar selections. Our server Forrest was excellent. Service, food, atmosphere.. overall a wonderful 5 stat visit to Salt and Pearl

Went into salt and pearl Sunday and was greeted by the host Skyler who was super kind and sat us at our seats at the bar. We also talked with the bartender Kenneth for a while, he was amazing! He made an amazing skinny margarita for me and I got to eat my favorites from the menu, the warm lobster roll and mushroom side! I dream about them often they’re so good… LOL. Ended the night with a sweet treat, the chocolate mousse cake which was so rich! It was everything I needed and more after a long day of playing volleyball at the beach.

Well our fabulous server FORREST kept me in delicious coffee our starters were exquisite calamari delicious Brussels sprouts roasted 😋 and their FABULOUS SMASHED BURGER WOWSA OUTSTANDING ♥️🇺🇸🇲🇽☕️✌️❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful and DELICIOUS restaurant. DELICIOUS. Scallops were the best and most unique flavors I have ever had. I love scallops and order them all the time. These were phenomenal! Lobster roll was amazing. Tons of fresh meat packed into the sandwich. Wedge salad was great! Usually wedge salads are just a filler dish but this one has amazing flavor. Service: perfect - our server greeted us right away. Didn’t pressure or rush us through ordering. Made great recommendations. - very tentative The restaurant is so creative, sexy and well put together. Such a cute interior and the detail is insane! Full bar, great wine beer and cocktail options. 2 gender neutral bathrooms (super cute bathrooms) Outdoor patio, bar seating, coaches and tables

Great food and an attentive staff. They have a solid selection of Oysters which are just the right size (for me). The fish and lobster selections were fresh. However, a meal here can be a little pricey compared to others restaurants of a similar caliber. We had the lunch menu, we didn’t brave into the (new) brunch menu. Would recommend if you want to splurge.

I must have good vibrations. I ordered Fish and Chips and sauteed spinach. Delicious. My fries were a bit cold. My server was quick to replace with hotter fries. And thereafter the manager Tyler approached me and apologized for my fries not being as hot as I usually like and comped my meal. Such a pleasant and grateful surprise. Everything was excellent I will be back to dine at this establishment. And thank you again Tyler for your grace as it truly was a pleasant surprise! 🙏

Salt & Pearl in Redondo Beach offers a nice ambiance for a casual lunch or dinner. Located on a bustling strip with plenty of options, it boasts both indoor and outdoor seating – a big plus in California. We opted for the covered outdoor patio (perfect for escaping the sun), but with a reservation, we ended up seated inside due to high demand. The calming green and black color scheme creates a relaxing atmosphere, ideal for catching up with friends. We started with drinks – the "Farmer's Daughter" was a winner! Light, refreshing, and perfect for a summer day. Unfortunately, the "Wafer" fell short. Described as a smoky drink, it ended up tasting more like a weak Kahlua with stale accompaniments (wafers). That's not what I expected. For our mains, the blackened mahi mahi was decent. The fish itself was cooked perfectly, but the achiote crema sauce was a bit skimpy, leaving the dish feeling slightly dry. The side of succotash with lima beans was also a bit undercooked. My friend's experience with Monte Cristo wasn't much better. He found it dry and lacking flavor. On the bright side, the service was attentive without being overbearing. Overall, Salt & Pearl offers a pleasant atmosphere, but the execution on certain plates could be improved.

This place is a jewel, the fish and chips was perfect 👌, the basil giblet outstanding, Justin the bartender puts it down! Chris the server super cool, and the crispy salmon speechless!!! 👌...all u need is time in this place , very much wort it..

Food was very good and the service was excellent. The unfortunate part is I lost an earring and tried calling all the places I was at, finishing with Salt and Pearl,we didn't find it but Isabella, an employee took my call and searched for me and she really took her time. Best part was her attitude and attention to detail. Thank Isabella, we will be back

There was a street fair going on when my girl and I found ourselves hungry and searching for a place to eat. We tried to give our business to two other restaurants in the area, but both said that their kitchens were closed between lunch and dinner. I was dumbfounded by this. This street fair was huge, and well attended. What business who is worth their salt, would close their kitchen and turn away business. Luckily for us Salt and Pearl seized this opportunity and snagged quite a few of us who had been turned away from other establishments, and I might add, to our benefit. We were comfortably seated in the street patio ( which came to being during the Covid pivot ) and promptly addressed by our polite server. We both ordered the smash burger, and before too long, they were placed before us. The burgers were a feast for the eyes as well as for the stomach. Very, very tasty. As I usually do, I ate my burger over the fries so the drippings fell onto the crispy potatoes. There's no better way. Yes, it's a bit on the steep side when you get the check, but not astronomical. Maybe just low orbit. You'll enjoy yourself. Quick Tip: The servers are friendly, happy, and well trained. Support their efforts. Give them the opportunity to not claim your tip on their income tax......as of this writing the BBB hasn't been signed by the president yet.

There are many eateries on S Catalina Avenue in Redondo Beach. This one is slightly higher end and pricier than many other others, but they offer a great quality food and excellent service. We came for a pre-concert dinner and had time limitations, but they accommodated us extremely well. The grilled salmon was one of the best I have tasted; and it looked as nice as it tasted. I also ordered their seafood roll, and I chose the king crab, which was decent, but it was kind of a small roll. The restaurants very small and half of the seatings are out on the street. But it does have that beach town relaxed that classy atmosphere. I think it would be a very nice place for drinks as well.

Updated Review: After posting my original review, Mickey personally reached out to me. He took full responsibility for the confusion regarding the posted hours and explained that there had been an error. He also reviewed the security footage and clarified that the individuals who entered before us were guests who knew other diners, but not the restaurant staff. Mickey then kindly invited my husband and me to return, and we accepted. When we let him know we were in town and available at 7:30 PM, he immediately made a reservation for us--even before replying to my message. From the moment we walked in, the entire experience was exceptional--from the ambiance to the service, drinks and the food. A special thank you to Justin, Kenneth, and Tyler for making our evening so memorable. We will definitely be back!

Prime rib Monday Wait?! Prime rib at a seafood restaurant? Intrigued I went and it was fantastic! Many places have really fatty cuts but this was perfect. We got the brussel sprouts as accompaniment and - because we were there for "happy hour" of course had to try some of the specials The staff were all awesome , the ambiance is very cool. Great for a date night.

Top notch. Happened upon this little gem after the nail salon! The stars aligned as it was both Monday (their Prime Rib special day) & Happy hour!!! How could we say no! We each had the prime rib! $25 for a LARGE 10 oz - perfectly seasoned and cooked. We opted for sides from the HH menu and they did not disappoint! Wasabi Slaw AMAZING and shoe string French fries!

Great food. The items we ordered were phenomenal!!!! Service is first class. Atmosphere is very trendy beach vibe. We will definitely be coming back again!!! Our server, Anthony, was very attentive.

Sauvignon Blanc and beet salad pair perfectly fresh, vibrant, and delicious! Especially lemon créme in beet salad is so good

Great service. Super cute place. But the food just wasn't very good. The calamari was overly battered and not nearly fresh or hot enough, the marinara is so spicy it makes you unable to taste the calamari (which today was a good thing), and the wedge salad was good lettuce but drenched in a blue cheese that had something off about it. My friend's fish and chips looked way over battered and oddly dark, too. Service was great - can't say that enough. But I don't think I'd return.

Amazing drinks Always my go to place Steak was 25% too much salt and that scalloped potatoes. was almost inedible :( just from the salt alone.

Salt & Pearl is the first restaurant I've ever been to that forces you to give your credit card info when you make a reservation and then would charge you $10 if you miss your reservation. It's a nice, clean place with some outdoor seating. They allow for pets in the outdoor area. This place specializes in seafood. I got a crispy skin Scottish salmon and a side of mushrooms. The salmon came with a small half lemon and it was pretty good. The other items that came with it such as the lentils weren't as good as the salmon. The mushrooms were creamy and had an above average taste. The service was amiable. Our total bill for two people was $97.41 (includes tax and tip)

Was in the Redondo Beach area and wanted a great seafood meal. Saw Salt & Pearl had great ratings and was close so gave it a try. Super happy I did! Great service, nice ambiance, fantastic drinks / bartender, and the food was outstanding. The Chowder was awesome, the hamachi crudo was great, as was the salmon and ahi tuna. The drinks were cool - a Smokey "Churchill" Manhattan, and espresso martinis. Some photos below. Highly Recommend.

The food was excellent and the service was outstanding. We had a wonderful time celebrating my birthday a little early. We loved our server.

I haven't seen my ride-or-die Cuzzo for a long minute and we were due for one of our brunch sessions! We usually meet halfway between our homes (she's about an hour drive away) but she decided to come through my hood instead. She let Hubbers and I decide where to go. Truth is, we were gonna go somewhere else, but Hubbers called an audible at the last minute and opted to come here instead. We got lucky and found parking a few feet away. We tried our luck by walking in (vs making reservations) but we were confident we were gonna get seated (we arrived sorta at a late-ish brunch-lunch hour.) As we hoped, we were seated immediately. It's a lot smaller than I expected, but the tables were spaced out enough so you're not running elbows with strangers. Our menus were given quickly as well as glasses of water. I'll admit we might have taken long to decide what to eat because we just got to talkin' first before looking through grub! Our server was incredibly patient, though. And it's a good thing there wasn't a wait! BRUSSEL SPROUTS: So this was my pick only because I've never had gochujang brussel sprouts. And what a difference it makes taste-wise. It wasn't strong or overwhelming, it really was mostly a hint, but noticeable, as with the bacon. Good starter. DOZEN OYSTERS: 3 of each: fat bastard, summer stone, Aphrodite and river gold. It's perfectly portioned since we all got to try one of each. Each had their own flavor characteristics. Personally, they didn't need the mignonette or the cocktail sauce. (I tried them anyway, but I liked the oysters as is.) The only teenee issue here? There were tiny bits of shell left post-shucking, so be mindful of that. If you're an oyster fiend, go for this. FRIED RHODE ISLAND CALAMARI: Crispy, good amount of batter, a bit on the salty side (but the cocktail sauce tamed that down.) But the salad that came with it is distracting - it was so good! It should be a side on its own! It's the dressing that makes it. This is one well-put together combo! CRISPY SKIN ICELANDIC SALMON: My choice for grub because I have never had a crispy arugula. (I know, that's a weird reason to have it, even more especially when I'm not really a fan of lentils.) I had hoped, though, that the sidekicks (lentils, sun dried tomatoes, red peppers and arugula) were also evenly portioned -the lentils dominated. But! Can't fault them on that, this is how they prep it - and they weren't bad either. The salmon skin was absolutely crispy and the fish was cooked buttery and flaky. I was surprised how much I enjoyed that. Hubbers opted for the Connecticut lobster roll (which I thought was kinda small for the price) and Cuzzo built her own omelette (which was done wrong the first time but was immediately fixed, so yay for that!) FOOD: 4. SERVICE: 3.75. VALUE: 3. Average at best for what you get. Some might think it's pricey, but the quality makes up for it. PARKING: Metered street only. $1.50/hr, maximum 4 hours. It can get busy during peak hours. Allocate some time for it. OVERALL: 3.5. Okay first run. A second stop is a good possibility since there are a few things in their menu I'd like to eventually try. Someday soon!

The Hamachi collar is top notch excellent. The Yakitori was huge. The sloppy joe was fun and also tasty. The quality of the food here is fresh and beautifully prepared. The happy hour is not cheap but high quality and they keep it classy. The service here is friendly, proactive and I would return here for dinner and drinks.

Lovely experience! Got a few things to share with my mom. Great ambiance and service. Definitely feels like a tailored experience from kitchen to table. Nice cocktails. Great place to have good conversation on a dinner date.

Five Stars!! Salt & Pearl was Fantastic! We revisited last night and enjoyed the Food, Wine, and Cocktails. The service was attentive and showed great hospitality. Plus, we love sitting on the inside patio. Anthony was exceptional and well-rounded! We look forward to returning with friends! Salt & Pearl is a neighborhood gem! We are so happy the owner reached out and turned things around.

Made reservations for 4th of July. I love this place. The dog friendly outdoor patio was well shaded and comfortable. The service was excellent and most of the food was delicious. We ordered the following: Hamachi Sashimi Calamari Peruvian scallops Smash burger Lobster roll Crab roll Fish and chips Caesar salad The sashimi and scallops were so fresh and well seasoned. The calamari was my favorite. Perfectly salted and crispy. The lobster and crab rolls were delicious and not stingy. They packed the sandwich with tons of lobster and crab and it was really flavorful. The fish and chips were also delicious as was the Caesar salad. The smash burger was pretty average but not horrible. For dessert we got the Chocolate nicciola. It liked better than it tasted. It had too much alcohol flavors and not enough Nutella. It was mostly just chocolate. Overall, I really enjoyed the service and food and would definitely come back.

We went there for Saturday dinner. The decor gave off Gatsby vibes. The service was really good. Although the first 2 items that I tried to order on the menu were sold out so not the best restaurant management in that regard. But I ended up ordering the salmon and it was delicious. I liked how they seared the skin and left it on. It came with risotto which was also delicious. My friend had the fish and chips and it was good with a ton of fries but probably not worth the price. We had oysters which tasted fresh and we also had margaritas and liked them. I would've given 4 stars but they were out of 2 of the main seafood selections (albacore and mahi mahi) on their menu and I was forced to try something else. UPDATE-Owners messaged me and explained why the menu selections weren't available. I understand so I updated my review to 4 stars.

Absolute pleasure for dinner before we went to see Sanjay Gupta at the Redondo beach performing arts. Waitress Ava was such a delight, knew the menu forwards backwards recommended the halibut it was superb. It was prime rib night, so my brother and I shared entrées had a hibachi appetizer that was world-class also. The restaurants amazing Ava was amazing

The staff were so friendly and inviting. We were one of the last parties to be seated for the night. We were offered a couple seating options. We chose the bar. Our Bar tender server Kenneth was amazing. All his recommendations were on point. I truly hate that I passed this small but mighty restaurant up two other occasions. A true flavor powerhouse! The lobster roll delivered. The Mac and cheese was selected as a main dish. It can definitely hold its own with beautiful rich creaminess. Drinks and dessert: The La Nonna is the business and got me right. Don't be fooled by the the Dulce de leche crème brûlée cheesecake- all those distinct flavors merry well.

Wonderful lunch here on New Years Eve. After walking along the ocean, we went here for lunch. I had my very first Lobster Roll and it was delicious! Great service, fun 80's music playing (a fav of mine) and nice atmosphere. Check them out.

Unbelievable first meal here. Monday afternoon. The hummus, the himachi, snow crab, and PRIME RIB!! Service was stellar. 10/10 highly recommend.

We loved it! Service was on point and we just had waters and they were really good at refilling. I love the ambiance, I may try to color match their wall for my room. It's a really nice green. What we ordered: My husband got the breakfast croissant sandwich, comes with arugula salad on the side. He cleaned his plate. Chicken Sandwich: super juicy and came with Coleslaw inside. Includes pickles, house Mayo (?) and ketchup. Fries came with it and you can upgrade to Parmesan fries! New addition to their menu: beef short rib hash with toast and a sunny side up egg. Soooo good. It has choice of traditional sauce or their special one -- go with special one! See picture. Not sure if it's permanently on the brunch menu or they are testing it, but get it before it goes away!

This place is a welcome addition to the Redondo Beach and greater South Bay areas! The Fish & Chips were a great shareable option; the portion size was hearty and (thankfully) not skimpy. I also appreciated how this plate wasn't too oily or harsh on the stomach - perfect for those of us trying to maintain their figure! Swordfish can be a difficult entree to pull off - it's flavorless and dry if not prepared properly, as you probably know. Thankfully, Salt & Pearl's rendition was juicy and mouth-watering! Kudos to the chef for sure. If you're looking for a relaxing, romantic dinner spot that strikes that perfect cozy balance, then look no further than Salt & Pearl!

We love Vida next-door, so we've been wanting to try this place. We sat along the railing which was surprisingly warm on a winter night with the heat lamps. The margarita was refreshing and delicious, very good. Husband had the espresso martini which was also very good. We ordered the seafood platter, beet salad, and the popovers. The beet salad was everything you want a beet salad to be. Crunchy pistachios, sweet figs, so delish. The popovers were buttery and crunchy on the outside. Very tasty. And of course the seafood platter was fresh and very good. Esp the oysters. What a lovely meal and great service. We will definitely be back.

What a treat to come here! Everything was delicious! We started with some Yorkshire popovers... OMG, I wanted to order some to-go! I even saved some for after dinner as a dessert even though we got the cheesecake brûlée as well... another sweet treat that was unforgettable. Other items we ordered were the oysters, scallops, sashimi, calamari, and fish n chips. Our beverages included the long goodbye and the Japanese bootlegger. We were satisfied with everything and all the staff were so nice and friendly. Ambiance wasn't too loud, a bar area with a couple tvs, and cozy booth and table seating. My husband and I are already talking about going for happy hour. Thank you Rachel and staff for your hospitality.

We have been wanting to try this place for a while now and we are so happy we did. We did a little sampler of a few of their dishes and tried their breakfast too. We loved the atmosphere! It is an upscale seafood fusion restaurant. The flavors honor the quality of the seafood and they pair it with fresh citrusy sweet flavors. Not only are the dishes refreshing and unique, the service is completely stupendous! Both the owners Justin and Mickey came over and chatted with us and made us feel like we were regulars. The South Bay has some great seafood options, but Salt & Pearl, is hands down the best in Redondo!

Love the ambiance, server was nice and the food tasted good but the portions were way too small for how expensive it is. For 4 people, we spent $500 and then needed to eat more when we got home. I'd love to go back but not sure if I want to spend that much money again...

We just happened to pop into Salt & Pearl while we were buying a gift certificate at another local restaurant. So happy we did. We sat at the bar and were immediately greeted by both the hostess and bartender/server Kenneth. We were celebrating my honey's last day of work ever and Kenneth was so happy for us! The old fashioned made was superb. The food was such a treat. I ordered fish & chips which were seasoned to perfection and fried up with a bubbly crispy crust. Fries were excellent! Honey had a beet salad and also the sea bass. The salad was beautiful and tasted really good. The sea bass was the star of the day though. Sweet, savory and cooked to perfection! Can't wait to go back! Excellent service and food!

One of the many restaurants located in Riviera Village. 3.5 stars rounded up to 4 because of the cute ambience and good service. The food is more of a 3 though. I have been here twice now and this is what I've tried: - Captain Ahab cocktail: pretty, light, citrusy and tasty! Cute cereal foam on top makes it great for the gram if you need that aesthetic photo. - Kumamoto oysters: these were just okay. I had to ask the server if they were all Kumomotos because some of them tasted really earthy and briney and not light and sweet like most Kumamotos do. He did confirm with the kitchen that they were all Kumamotos and I chose to believe him... maybe it was just a bad batch...? - Peruvian scallops: colorful and delicious. Loved the habanero confit with mango and toasted coconut. Well balanced. - New England seafood chowder: my husband enjoyed this one. You'll probably like it if you like creamy clam chowder-type soups. - Maine lobster roll with fries: pretty good except for the fact that there was a shell I had to dig out of my mouth from the lobster meat. A little more attention to detail could be used in the prep. Parking: meter/street

our fabulous server forrest the best kept me in coffee delicious y'all great service if you get chance fish chips are looking fab.

Kat was a great server! We ordered- LITTLE NECK CLAMS- this was not my favorite. Never had raw clams before. SCALLOPS- this was the best out of all of the raw food bar.. OYSTERS- this was good. Don't remember the name SHRIMP- this was cooked. This was just ok for me. FRENCH FRIES- really loved the fries. It was nice and salty. BEET SALAD- this was tasty WAGYU TRI TIP- this was tasty. MUSHROOMS- this was great with the tri tip LADY CHURCHILL- this was slightly too sweet for me OLD FASHION- liked this a lot better LEMON MARSCAPONE- this was just meh. Thought I would get more of a lemon flavor. Not lemony at all.. not even the jam CHOCOLATE NOCCIOLA- this was very chocolatey. This was just ok for me.

Salt & Pearl is a beautiful new restaurant in the Village. It is a narrow store front with an elegant oceanic vibe. It is dark and I imagine very romantic in the evening. Reservations are a good idea. We were seated immediately, and the service was friendly and attentive. It was a lunch, so I ordered a glass of wine (great selection albeit pricey for the offerings) and a couple of veggie sides. I was really disappointed by the mushrooms, which were a beautiful selection but they were sitting in a bowl of oil. I used my fork to try to drain them, but it made me sick to my stomach. The Brussels were pretty tasty, but it was hard to say after my stomachache from the mushrooms. The parking in the Village is a total nightmare. Plan ahead and arrive early.

Great new restaurant with great food. I really enjoyed the raw seafood selections--oystes and scallops, and the Chicken Paillard and Seared Togarashi Encrusted Albacore were so good! The only reason I am not giving five stars is because of lack of attention to us by the server. I understand the place was packed but the pace of serving was a bit slow. But overall the quality of food was excellent and the location is great , too. Salt & Pearl is another reason to be excited about the food scene in the South Bay area these days!

Celebrated a friends birthday dinner here on the patio and we all enjoyed it . We had calamari and focaccia bread to start and they were both great . I had the beet salad and albacore entree and they were both good and flavorful . I also tried the lobster roll sand which and the garlic fries . The servers were attentive and the food was great . We will be back !!

Met a friend for girl talk & ended up here for hours sipping on a spritz and eating oysters! The vibes are so unique and honestly the food was very good. Recommend the smash burger but seafood options are even better. Service is 10/10. Caesar was helping us out and he is really such a kind and upbeat person! Def recommend for a drink & good food!

Great service. Nice ambiance but I got food poisoning from the bbq oysters. It was the only thing I eat at lunch time and after 2 hrs I had the effects. Be aware!!!!

Cocktails were delicious. We loved the Ichiban oysters and could have eaten 2 dozen of those. Actually, all of the food we ordered was delicious. We ordered the sliders, smash burger, a salad and lobstah roll! The lobster roll was what I ordered and I absolutely loved it. I chose the hot one with butter. I will be back for that. Our servers went fantastic. The vibe was chill with lots of locals. We want to try the brunch next.

Brand new (January 2024) oyster and seafood restaurant in Riviera Village. Features a very interesting menu with many great share plates, salads, seafood and even wagyu steak options. The server was friendly and professional, with a superb knowledge of the menu including wines. We got a Walking Fool Cabernet which was a total knockout. For food we started with Kumamoto oysters from the Pacific Northwest. I'm not even a huge oyster fan, but they were delicious! Every bite was really a hit from the fresh edamame hummus to the seared-ahi (sashimi grade, no less). There's a large heated outdoor patio which is comfortable and lets you see the fun nearby Village joints. The indoor of the restaurant is small so the seating is a bit limited inside, but that shouldn't deter you from trying this amazing kitchen.

Was very lucky to grab a seat at the grand opening of Salt & Pearl in the Riviera village. So excited to have another fantastic restaurant in the area. The service stands out from the moment you check in at the front, the server at the table and everyone checking in on you to make sure your experience is top notch. We had oysters (delicious), crab claws (super fresh) and a perfect lobster roll! The drinks were well crafted and presentation was Instagram friendly. Looking forward to coming back to have dinner sometime soon!

My husband and I love Salt & Pearl. The cozy but classy ambience is perfect for a date night out and the apps and drinks are so so good. A couple of our go-to's are the bbq oysters, hamachi sashimi (best I've ever had), the salmon, and the smash burger (random for an oyster bar but fantastic). For drinks - we love the Tokyo bootlegger.

Service with Forrest was excellent as well as the woman who would come by with water, clear the table, etc. The food was average. My friend had the albacore (which she didn't realize was seared). I had the Mahi Mahi. WAY too many beans. The fish was a bit overcooked. We did have a salad that was really delicious and the drinks (Capt something or other) recommended by Forrest was excellent. For dessert we had something with chocolate; very sweet so not to my liking. My friend got to enjoy most of it. Rating the experience a 4 due to the service (otherwise it would be a 3.)

First time dining at this restaurant , the food was delicious, however the hostess around 2:20 pm was a personality that was to be desired and I walked out ( young, tall , slender brunette). When I initially stepped inside, not sure where the rest of my party was seated, I scanned the dining area & caught the gaze of the hostess looking at me and then glanced over at a male co-worker with a smirk who was standing nearby as if to so say, "it's one of them". Of course I have no way of knowing what she was actually thinking but I do know when I'm not welcomed and her look and lack of assistance said it all. At no point did she approach me to ask me if I wanted to be seated but instead, she looked offended that I had even stepped inside. As I stepped back outside still looking around for the rest of my party, a gentleman passing out front saw that I was out of sorts and asked me what establishment I was looking for? A passerby could stop to assist me but not an employee who obviously couldn't step outside of her own personal stereotypes towards people of color! I don't like to play the race card but if it looks like a duck & quacks like a duck, it's a duck!!!! As I connected with the rest of my party outside, as we approached, the hostess quickly turned on a fake smile and met us at her little podium and led us inside. Long story short, the ambiance was nice and the service outside of my encounter with that hostess was very good and our server was attentive and very pleasant. The next hostess who later took over, a shorter brunette was really sweet and had a totally different demeanor than the one before. Not sure if I'd return ( not going to spend money where I'm not welcomed) but the salmon with Brussels sprouts and fried mushrooms was absolutely fantastic!

Breaks my spirit to have to give this place a 1 star review but it's time.. The food is fantastic the hostess is awesome.. but I was coming in here every week and all of sudden they raise the price of their soup from $15 to $22! That's a $7 price increase.. $7.00! ..with absolutely zero change or anything added with the plate. It's just $7 more now with no explanation. That is a huge significant difference. $7 more now.. why?? I went from bringing my family and friends here to going somewhere that makes more sense when it comes to where I spend my money and why i am loyal to a specific place. The people have spoken.

Beautiful spot! Lovely service, great food, super fun mocktails -- the bartender def has fun with them :) can't wait to go back

This was the first time I've eaten dinner at Salt and Pearl, the food was really great, but the thing that stood out was the service. I got amazing service from Ava and Forrest, but the service that was given by Anthony was beyond extraordinary. I've been in customer service my whole life, and I'll be the first to call out someone for not giving good customer service. The customer service I got from Anthony was the best I've ever had in my entire life. From making a reservation with him to talking to him during the evening and having him offer to go next-door to get a special dessert for my friend, who is Gluten Free and having a birthday, it was something I've never experienced at a restaurant before. I will keep going back to this restaurant because they are so welcoming. Anthony is the BEST.

Interesting menu with unique food items. Vibe is a little loud for a beachside restaurant. Great service. Great drinks

5/5 for everything! Service was amazing! Forrest was on top of everything! He had great recommendations and was very knowledgeable on the menu. We started off with the wedge! It was HUGE! The bacon is smoked and thick cut and full of flavor. Let's just say we had to hold back from licking the plate clean. It was delicious! We had trouble picking our entrees because so many of them sounded good! We finally landed on the ribeye and albacore with a side of brussel sprouts. The ribeye was also huge! It was super juicy and full of flavor in every bite! Cooked to perfection! I ordered the albacore which had an amazing presentation! It was perfectly seared with a nice blackening spice, laid on top of a pear ponzu sauce. It was gone in seconds! The sweet and spicy went together perfectly, leaving me wanting more. Lastly, the brussel sprouts which are a must! They are served with the thick smoked bacon and pickled ginger. It had a bit of spice that kept you coming back for more. We ended with a the cheesecake brûlée! 10/10 hit the spot! It wasn't overall sweet at all which is surprising since it was served on top of a light bed of caramel and sliced strawberries. The brûlée touch was something different that I'll definitely come back to order again. We were seated on the patio and enjoyed people watching and the calm atmosphere. The decor of the restaurant is simple and inviting. We did not try drinks tonight but will be back to try out more of the menu and possibly sit at the bar top. Chef Alex really nailed it with this menu!
