What People Are Saying About Saltoro

Citysearch

The Scene – Colorful modern glass lamps light up the wooden booths and floors-it's a simple, unpretentious background that suits families and couples alike. The central area of the dining room can get noisy; if privacy is important, hold out for a booth under the skylights. Don't shy away from asking detailed questions about the food sources-the staff knows what's local, wild-caught or farmed. – – The Food – Straightforward, hearty dishes give the menu equal appeal across generations and dietary preferences. Salads are accessorized with treats like brie and Marcona…

One of our neighborhood favorites!

by northcity

My boyfriend and I have eaten here more than a dozen times. The truffle fries are to die for! I'm a vegetarian and he's not, and there are a handful of vegetarian options, but like Bick's down the street (same owners, I believe), they have a special vegetarian menu you need to ask for which "calls out" the vegetarian options but also has some options that aren't on the regular menu. Why do this? I have no idea, it seems like they should just incorporate everything onto the regular menu.

I'd give this 5 stars except last time we ate there the boyfriend got a steak he really wasn't happy with. We LOVE the $20 wines.

One other great thing about Saltoro - we've gone there on big nights like Fridays, New Year's Eve and Valentine's Day, and we've never had much of a wait.

  • Pros: Ambience, service, general quality of ingredients
  • Cons: Small portions

Good but a little heavy

by kateahubbard

My father, boyfriend, and I walked to Saltoro for dinner a few weeks ago. I liked the appearance from the outside and was excited to try a place in our new neighborhood (we just moved). I might have tried the wrong things on the menu, but had somewhat limited options as a vegetarian, and everything I ordered was greasy (pizza and salad). I also wasn't a huge fan of the pumpkin martini which tasted like egg nog and would have been better as a dessert. I am definitely still excited to go back sometime though, because as I said, I may have just ordered the wrong things! And my boyfriend and dad were happy with their food!

  • Pros: Beautiful

Summer Breezes

by betsaroobah

We had a dreamy summer's night here last night. Sitting on the deck, cool breeze to add to the ambiance of a great meal and good wine. We'll be back, soon!
