Imagination coupled with our experienced staff will enable you to create exciting, memorable occasions. Please consult your catering representative for more details.

PAYMENTS & BILLING

It is our policy that one check will be presented which will include a 20 percent service charge and Washington State sales tax. In accordance with State of Washington Department of Revenue all food and beverage, service charge and miscellaneous sales are subject to sales tax. All accounts are payable in full at the end of the event unless previous arrangements have been made through our catering office. We accept American Express, Mastercard, VISA, Diners Club, Discover, Cashiers Checks or U.S. Currency.

MENU SELECTION

Parties up to 30 guests have the following menu options available:

Groups up to 100 may pre-select up to 3 entrées.
Groups over 100 may pre-select up to 2 entrées.
(The Starter and Dessert must be the same for the entire group.)

GUARANTEES

Your final guarantee (the number of guests attending) and all entrée counts must be given to a Salty's Catering representative three business days prior to your event. You will be billed for the guarantee or the number of meals served, whichever is greater. All food and beverage are to be provided by Salty's on Alki.

DEPOSITS & MINIMUMS

Deposits are required to reserve a room and will be applied towards your final bill. Each room carries a minimum dollar value. When these dollar minimums are met through food and hosted beverage purchases (exclusive of service charge and sales tax) all room charges will be waived. If the dollar minimum is not met, the balance will then become a room charge (subject to 20% service charge and sales tax).

DESSERTS

Our in-house bakery has a full line of cakes for every occasion. The charge is $3.00 and up per person. If you would like to provide your own cake, a $2.00 per person (plus service charge and sales tax) cake cutting fee will apply. This fee does not apply to wedding cakes.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQs)

Do You Charge For Your Rooms And When Are They Available?
We simply have room minimums or “dollar values” that vary depending on the date and time. We try to put groups in the appropriate room so that the room minimum is waived when food and hosted beverages are purchased through Salty's on Alki. We sell the rooms during the day any time up until 4:00 p.m. and evenings beginning at 6:00 p.m. until 12:30 a.m. We break down to reset rooms between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. Please contact a Salty's Catering Representative for the specific room minimums.

What Is Included With The Rooms?
We take care of all the set-up, breakdown, linens, china, silverware, bartenders, service staff, parking and dance floor (when renting all three rooms) and all clean-up.

What About Set-up Times?
While we believe you do not need to do much as far as set-up or decorating, you may certainly arrive any time before your function during the day time-slot and between the 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. evening time-slot while we are re-setting the room.

Do You Have A Dance Floor? Is There A Charge?
We provide a 12-foot by 24-foot wood parquet dance floor that is free of charge when you rent all three of our private rooms together as one room.

What About Parking?
We have a very large parking lot for your use free of charge. There is also street parking available. When business in the main dining room and banquet facilities requires it, we provide complimentary valet parking for guests in addition to street parking.

How Does The Bar Work?
It's entirely up to you as the host. Salty's bartenders and bar service are included with all of our rooms and we simply charge based on consumption. You may offer a full hosted bar to your guests, or perhaps just beer and wine, or maybe everyone is simply pay on their own (no-host bar). Choose whatever works best for you, but take into account that room minimums are met through food and hosted beverage purchases. In other words, beverages the host pays for and puts on the food bill are applied to the room minimum.

Are Bands & DJ's Allowed?
Yes, but you are required to rent all three private rooms. Otherwise, you may rent individual rooms and we can pipe in “styles” of digital music, or you may bring in your own cd's or i-pod.

What About Handicapped Access?
There is complete access located at sea-level to allow guests to easily enter and exit the banquet facilities.

Will There Be Someone In Charge Throughout Our Event?
We always have a designated manager on duty throughout your entire function. Although everything will be finalized and detailed prior to your event, we are here to serve you and all of your guests.

Can You Have Your Ceremony On Site?
We do not recommend ceremonies on site. We do a few every year but please remember Salty's is a restaurant. The changing room would be the ladies room. Rehearsals can be somewhat difficult with groups occupying rooms prior to your event. Remember, it's your big day and ceremonies performed on site at Salty's On Alki would take place in your existing reception set-up area.

For more information please contact our Banquets & Catering Office. We're here to help you plan the perfect event. Call us at (206) 937-1085 or email us.
