Salt Restaurant and Bar - Syracuse (NY)

5 /5 Taylor DeCook: My boyfriend and I have been coming here for about a year now for brunch. Most times we had a waiter named Mark and when we have him we absolutely love it here. He is amazing, so attentive and nice. The food is amazing, but if you come here I hope you have him as a server because my time here while he is here is exceptional and not like the times without him. So I do recommend it here because of the food but more so because of an amazing server.

5 /5 Private Dotcom: I go to Syracuse Law School and I’ve been in town for residencies twice now. Came here last year for dinner and brunch and came again this year. Always always always a positive experience. The servers are very nice. The food tastes like it was made with love. If you’re ever around the University and are looking for a sit in classic American cuisine with great, warm people, that appear to love their job, I highly recommend this place. Don’t leave Syracuse without coming here.

2 /5 Amber Shepherd: Unfortunately, our experience at Salt Restaurant & Bar on Saturday night was nothing short of chaotic and unprofessional due to one staff member: Karen. Despite calling ahead with updates, we arrived to find half the restaurant dark and barely enough tables set. Karen was dismissive and disorganized, taking orders without checking availability and showing no regard for customer service. Guests waited over an hour, some never received food, gluten-free requests weren’t accommodated, and bills were incorrect. Thankfully, Uniyah stepped in to salvage the situation as best she could. The Collegian Hotel deserves better representation in its restaurant. This experience soured an otherwise lovely stay. Avoid Salt Restaurant if professionalism, accuracy, and hospitality matter to you.

1 /5 Sarah McIlvain: Sunday brunch! After Church. A very quiet time. Food was satisfing, service didnt interfere with conversation. I will return and so well my partners.

2 /5 Jac Price: Took the risk that the worst reviews were several years old. Sadly, they are true that the service is slow or non-existent and the food is mediocre and over-priced. Attached picture is our $8 fruit plate. Daughter liked the chocolate pancakes though.
