"Boston import Saltie Girl has quickly made itself at home in West Hollywood, where the upscale restaurant is serving lobster rolls, calamari, and clam chowder. The restaurant takes up a prime corner location, with a sizable indoor dining room and a patio perfect for warm days. Start with an impressive seafood tower stacked with oysters, clams, shrimp, and lobster, before moving into dishes like tinned fish served with crusty sourdough bread, a French Dover sole, and lobster frites. If dropping by for brunch, try the fried lobster served over a golden brown waffle. Saltie Girl is on the expensive side of things, but it’s ideal for a fancy night out or celebrating a special occasion. Save room for a warm chocolate chip for dessert." - Mona Holmes
"West Hollywood seafood spot Saltie Girl will serve its full menu on New Year’s Eve, alongside specials like baked Nantucket Bay scallops, Spanish Dover sole, and a Colorado rack of lamb. A complimentary Champagne toast and hors d’oeuvres will also be provided with a minimum $90 spend per person. Book a table through Resy." - Rebecca Roland
"The Sunset Strip is a place we generally try to avoid when it comes to eating out, but Saltie Girl has softened our cold hearts. This popular Boston import in Sunset Plaza offers large-format seafood dishes, sashimi, salads, and steaks. What you need to concentrate on, though, are the classic New England-style dishes. The lobster roll, juicy bar burger, and clam chowder all have us daydreaming of becoming crusty fisherpeople. If that’s not enough, there’s a thick booklet of tinned seafood options from which you can build your own sardine plate. Hitting the Sunset Strip can be fun as long as you have the right restaurant to base your night around. Saltie Girl fits the bill. " - brant cox, nikko duren
"Boston import Saltie Girl serves a towering salad set on a thick slice of iceberg lettuce at its West Hollywood location. Served with a steak knife to cut into the base, the salad is made up of arugula, avocado, cucumbers, brioche croutons, snap peas, and more, dressed in a green goddess vinaigrette. Any trip here for seafood should be rounded out with this plate of greens." - Rebecca Roland
"Eating the burger and sipping a martini alone at the bar (no reservations required) then quietly leaving this upscale seafood spot on the Sunset Strip is our favorite version of an Irish Goodbye. The hefty, melt-in-your-mouth beef patty is topped with gruyere, avocado, and a tangy, mayo-y dressing. There are similar burgers around town, but Saltie Girl’s version is the one we continue to prioritize. Does the tiny piece of fried lobster on top add much flavor? Not really, but we always appreciate a statement hat. " - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren, garrett snyder
