My So Called Life...: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!
By Steph
Sunday morning we did brunch with my family (my mom and dad) at Salty's
on the river. It is such a delicious brunch. They have everything: crab,
shrimp, prime rib, fresh made to order omelettes, crapes, salads, oysters,
salmon, eggs Benedict, hash browns, sausage, bacon, ALL YOU CAN DRINK
MIMOSAS OR CHAMPAGNE, and a 5 foot chocolate fountain, plus a ton of other
stuff that I am forgetting. It is such an AMAZING brunch with a beautiful
view of the Columbia River. And, it's not too terribly expensive either,
which is awesome. Check it out... you will LOVE it, I guarantee it!

The Williams Family: Our Anniversary
By The Williams Family
Michael and I went to Salty's this year for our anniversary. Michael's
mom took Preston out to Sequim for the whole weekend, so Michael and I
got to have a nice relaxing weekend together. We ate way too much as usual,
but oh man, it was so worth it. At the end of our meal the waiter brought
us an "on the house" piece of their signature white chocolate
coconut cake. It was melt in your mouth heavenly. The waiter brought it
to us, and by the time he came back with refills on our drinks, the plate
was clean!! He probably thought we were a little weird, but it was sooooo
good. Then we went and walked around a little on the water…

Portland: Salty's: A Holiday Wonderland in the North
YourStreet, Portland Oregon News
By NoPo Ness
Having lived in Portland for 11 years now (Wow, could it be?) I've heard
the name Salty's tossed around a time or two when talking about seafood
restaurants. Since it's way out on Marine Drive, I had never gotten around
to checking it out until last Friday night. I saw the posting here on
the site for the "March of the Nutcrackers" and being a bit
of a nutcracker fan, I moseyed on over to their site to check out what
this march was all about. After watching the cool video clip I was hooked
(talk about good marketing!) That video clip got me all excited and in
the holiday spirit.

Elliott's first holiday season
By Sarah
Yesterday I went to Salty's on the Columbia for Christmas brunch with
two friends. It had to be very impressive to live up to its $35 price
tag per person, and I must say it lived up to its expectations. The food
was wonderful, the view breathtaking, and service friendly and attentive
without being stuffy or overdone. Elliott was of course, practically a
celebrity by the time we left. Servers that I didn't know and weren’t
assigned to our table were talking about how cute Elliott is and waving
good-bye. Elliott also got a picture with Santa Claus there- he wasn't
smiling, but he also wasn't crying. It was a wonderful time.

Sparkling birthday night!
Oh The Places We'll Go
By Lyssa
Logan had made reservations at a restaurant called Salty's near the Columbia
river. The drive was so pretty. I love Portland at night, specifically
downtown from I-5 along the Willamette. The lights reflecting on the river
are so pretty ... At Salty's we got to sit on the second floor room overlooking
the river. They had icicle lights up which reflected on all the windows
and combined with the lights from across the river and the reflections
on the water. They weren't blinking but the overall atmosphere was sparkling.
*sigh* I was so great. My face actually started to get sore because I
was smiling so much. Logan had salmon and I had a lobster :) it was great.
It was the perfect dinner. It was fabulous, beautiful, sparkling, delicious,
and because I had a lobster I could rip, tear, and smash and it was all-right,
even expected! I felt special, fancy, and comfortable. I loved it. Read

Seattle and Salty’s and Pike Place Market
Traveling Aprons
By Barbara Hahn, Park Hills, Missouri
On August 23, 2007, my husband and I set sail to Alaska on the Golden
Princess out of the Port of Seattle. We had spent part of the previous
day sightseeing and eating in Seattle. First to the food of course--We
ate lunch at Salty's Seafood Grill on the Waterfront. We had a front row
seat of Elliott Bay and the service was just as fabulous as the food.
We started out with a three tier appetizer, Dungeness crab cakes, fried
calamari, and coconut battered shrimp with Thai sweet-hot sauce. I favored
one of the crab cakes and the coconut shrimp. Thai sweet-hot sauce was
served in a 2-inch standing cucumber scooped out to hold the sauce. Read

and Dungeness crab legs. I first attacked the crab legs and after an hour
or so, we all waddled out of Salty's with full stomachs. We walked down

all the crop is down about 15%,but very high quality.This show features
a new menu from Salty's on alki .I look forward to these shows and the
great pairings put together.A service that Salty's has that needs to be
mentioned. A limo will pick you up at your hotel in Seattle and bring
you to the restaurant. After a great meal, you will be taken back to the
hotel/no charge. (except a great tip to the driver.)Think Weekend in Seattle...dinner

a restaurant right on the beach in West Seattle. Below you can see the
view we had out the windows behind us. Not the best picture - but the
view was incredible. It was a regular eating marathon, about three hours
of eating/digesting/eating/digesting. They had the best seafood, omlets,
pasta, pancakes, waffles, chocolate fondue, desserts, and the list goes
on and on. It was definitely necessary to walk of our lunch, and a long
stroll on the beach was just the cure. Wahoo for sunshine! If only it

Salty's Announces Recipe Contest Winner
By Kyla Myers, About-SeattleWa.com, Seattle, WA
Back in June, Salty's announced a recipe contest to celebrate 30 years
of serving wild salmon in the Northwest. Participants were encouraged
to submit their "totally original, wildly creative and tastiest recipe
for cooking wild salmon". The winner and five friends/family members
would be treated to a hands-on cooking class with a Salty's Chef, and
would then dine on the goodies from the class. Mmm, sounds fabulous to
me! This month Salty's announced the winners so I thought I'd share the
winning recipe. As you all know, I'm a huge fan of Indian food so this
recipe looks like a winner to me! The winning recipe was submitted by
Tim Bottler of Portland, Oregon. Tim is apparently a regular Happy Hour

than worth the 30 dollars per person. They served exquisite food, lots
of variety and I may never try another eggs benedict in my life cause
it just wouldn't compare. They also had all kinds of fresh sea food, fish,

View From The Saddle
Westseattleherald.com - Seattle,WA
Now, the pedestrian traffic begins to build as I approach Salty's. Sunday
brunch time puts me onto the street along here because of the pedestrians.
Cars are more predictable than pedestrians, especially pedestrians who
are headed for a great meal at one of Seattle's great restaurants. Even

Be a Queen at Salty’s
Westseattleherald.com
By Emily Williamson
The Lunch Ladies
How would you like to feel for a queen (or king) for a day and not
have to leave West Seattle? How about being treated like a Hollywood
celebrity without breaking your budget? I have a secret. You can do
it, and it is easy. Just go to lunch at Salty's…. We were welcomed
immediately with pure West Seattle warmth. Even though Salty's it considered
one of our finer restaurants, it has a refreshing, non-pretentious
atmosphere. I felt right at home in my blue jeans as we passed by the
partially open kitchen, the dessert tray (Miranda picked out hers right
then) and made our way into the seating area. The view opened to a
panorama of Elliot Bay and downtown Seattle. It was so beautiful, I
actually gasped. We were seated by the windows (the view is good from
every seat), when Miranda pointed to a Bald Eagle flying over the building….
Miranda and I were amazed at the prices and selection on the lunch
menu. It was really affordable, and a wide selection. We started with
two cups of soup. I had the crab and halibut chowder, and Miranda had
the clam chowder. I was glad that Miranda didn't ask to try mine, I
wanted it all. It was thick, with warm spices, and thick chunks of
crabs. I savored every bite…. Today's subject with Miranda? Gifts.
She talked about how people are born with multiple gifts and talents,
like having majors and minors in college. She said the trick is to
find our gifts, and that the clue to having a gift is that they are
never selfish: they are always about serving the good of humanity.
(Whoever made our meal has a gift with food!)

Salty's - What a view!
By Frantic Foodie
Seattle Post Intelligencer
I have heard the name Salty's so many times since I moved to Seattle.
Finally I went to Salty's on Alki Beach for the first time. The dinner
started off with a huge assortment of rolls including fresh savory
scones. I actually filled up on the scones because they were so addictive.
I ordered the Halibut with Beurre Blanc and Risotto with Corn and Asparagus
as a side dish. The halibut was delightful and the risotto was deliciously
creamy. The place was packed, the people were positive and the service
was great. The dinner was one of those "I love Seattle" experiences,
especially when I watched the sun come down right on the water. So
romantic! Next time I have guests from out of town, I know where I
am taking them. After I got home I was talking to a friend about the
experience (I must add that this person is quite picky when it comes
to food)
Me: I went to Salty's The food was really amazing. Him:
Of course, that is why they always win so many awards (best Sunday brunch,
best seafood and steakhouse in Seattle and Portland and the list goes
on). Me: So what do you think it is about it? Him:
They have great service, lots of staff and they use fresh ingredients.
It all made sense! Read

Stretching your dollar while dining out
KGW.COM Portland,OR
by Dave Northfield, KGW Staff
Here's another great deal for fine dining on a budget - happy hour. At
Salty's they offer a smaller portion of their crab and shrimp mac and
cheese for $5.99. The full portion is $24.95 at dinner. To go with discounted
drinks, there's a cheeseburger and fries for $5.99 and portobello mushroom
ravioli for $5 dollars. Also new at Salty's is the half price-half portion
entrees which also appeal to those looking for value and a smaller portion.
"Sometimes you're just not in the mood to eat a large meal. You want
dessert, and you know if you order the big entree you can't make it there,
" Linda Addy of Salty's told Newschannel-8.

Paddle Into the Sunset with Alki Kayak Tours
By info@toursaver.com (Gary Blakely)
You have to take the water taxi over to Alki Beach in West Seattle.
Oh, you can drive over as well, but it's more fun to take the Elliott
Bay Water Taxi. The water taxi operates seven days a week, between
Pier 55 at the foot of Spring Street on the downtown Seattle waterfront
and Seacrest dock in West Seattle. It takes about 12 minutes.
Give Greg a call at (206)953-0237. Tell him Scott sent you. TIP: Stop
in for a wonderful lunch at Salty's. You can walk there from the boathouse.

Where Do You Happy Hour
Seattle Post Intelligencer Reader Blogs
Posted by Eastside Uptown Girl
For the wine enthusiast, here is an idea: it's not really happy hour,
but it happens right after work around 6 PM. Sommilier David LaClaire
has launched his new venture SEATTLE UNCORKED! The unpretentious wine
club. This past week he hosted "Sexy Syrahs" at Salty's on
Alki and it benefitted FareStart, a local charity.
My friend Eileen Mintz alerted me to this event. It was packed! There
were a few hundred people tasting syrahs from all over the NW. Food
is also provided and Saltys catered it. We had salmon, lamb, veggie
sliders, and lots of desserts. All carefully paired to go with a syrah.
If you see an event on his calendar you are interested in I suggest
you jump on it because his events sell out.
It's a great way to try a variety of fine wines, network, and have
a bite to eat on your way home from work.
C'mon, get happy! Read

Billy's Seattle / Tacoma Blog
From Billy Watson, Your Guide to Seattle/Tacoma
Salty's on Alki offers the best view and the best brunch in Seattle. Those
two points are as close to universally accepted as it gets. The menu of
the landmark Seattle restaurant isn't as "inventive" as some
of the newer spots around town, but it also comes across as confident
and unpretentious; making a meal there a nice experience for pretty much
anyone. April is a great time to stop in at Salty's for two reasons: 1)
It's halibut season & 2) Salty's is one of a dozen restaurants participating
in Seasoned Seattle.

Following practice, the team went to the movie theater and saw "The

to a restaurant called Salty's. The place was great; the food was really
good and the location was perfect. Salty's basically sits on stilts out
in the water off Redondo Beach on the Puget Sound. The restaurant was
apparently popular among some of the other teams at the meet. While we
were there, we also saw the teams from Miami, Florida State, Stanford

that flows with chocolate? You dip various items of food under the fountain

eat of the most incredible food! And it's not all seafood, which I'm not
the biggest seafood fan, so that works for me. There is everything from
a tall chocolate fountain, waffles, hearty breakfast items, seafood (obviously),
and DESSERTS! You need to make reservations if you would like to go and
Salty's has it for Saturday and Sunday and we highly recommend it to everyone!
