SALT

We arrived at the front door of this restaurant, and there was nobody to greet us. We waited around, still nobody. We went to find a staff member in the back, and ended up having to show ourselves to a table anyway. This is a beautiful restaurant with a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Unfortunately, The staff are a huge letdown. It feels like a group of teenagers running a restaurant for their friends as a school project. Slow and unprofessional service throughout. We ordered the Asian style chicken strips with spicy rice, and the chalmar burger. Both dishes were very disappointing. In particular, there was nothing at all Asian about the chicken strips. The sauce was completely bland and tasteless. The spicy rice had no spice whatsoever and was slightly burnt. This dish was a complete fail. The burger was average, patty overcooked though. The potatoes served with the burger were very tasty. No ketchup available. Overall, a very disappointing experience. Kalk Bay has a huge number of other restaurants and eateries, I wouldn’t come here again.

So busy at 7 (I arranged to call back at 8) and lo and behold we had a table. Super swift, friendly and knowledgable service. Line Fish was ace! Wine was fab! No wonder it’s the No.1 place in Kalk Bay. Make the effort and queue if you have to. I will be returning for the Lamb Ravioli as everyone seems to be ordering it. Thanks for a great meal.

Food was ok nothing too special but the coffee was good. Nice view to the harbour as its located right in front of the harbour. Very laid back place to spend your Sunday morning.

Such a nice place! Went for a breakfast.. the food was sooo nice! The atmosphere amazing and that amazing view! I love the look of the interior as that is the kalkbay feel.. will def be back!

When a cafe cares as much to laptop free tables and a candle wax statue to their hospitality alive and well you know you are in goods hands 🙌 don’t tell everyone about this place … let’s just keep it as our little secret. FAB 5 star all the way ⭐️

Salt is one of our favourite places to eat! The restaurant is small, so be prepared to share tables if need be. The atmosphere is laid-back, and the front tables afford a great view of the harbour. The food is divine. They have small plates, so it’s best to order a variety and share it. Our favourite was the fresh yellowtail line fish of the day, as well as the best lamb ravioli. My kids enjoyed the pork belly flat bread and calamari salad. Def a go-to place. The food is freshly prepared, but the wait is worth it

Nice laidback small bistro with good tapas and lovely vibe. Note: you can’t make a reservation so it is best to come early as the quaint restaurant fills up quickly. You might be sharing your bar type table with other guests.

Probably one of the worst experiences I’ve had in this area. Unfortunately it was late and we were hungery without any other options. We ordered a bunch of small plates to share. The food was overpriced and extremely underwhelming. The nachos were literally a plate of plain salted store bought chips with a dollop of guacamole. That’s not nachos, that’s chips and guac. The waitress was unfriendly and overall I left feeling cheated and still hungry. It seems like a great place to stop after a morning cycle for a coffee and croissant, and that’s why it’s probably the busiest around those times. But if you’re looking for a nice dinner that’s worth your while rather go next door to Olympia.
