About this restaurant

Neighbourhood gem
Great for brunch
Charming

Bright and airy, with a vintage retro style and featuring distressed wooden tables topped in white marble, salvage greenhouse window frames and comfy linen banquettes, Salt continues Avoca’s emphasis on serving delicious, seasonal dishes with largely locally sourced ingredients. Salt's name comes its Salthill locale - which itself was derived from salt works that were once here - plus the nearby sea and, of course, the seasoning. Menus are fresh and interesting (see below), with plenty of appetizing salads and lighter lunch dishes, reasonably priced for the casual mid-week crowd.

Very good experience in Avoca Salt restaurant. The half roast chicken Caesar salad was excellent. Quite a lot of chicken but I finished it. God value for money. Staff were attentive and efficient. I’ll be back. 😊

A great experience overall. Took some time to take my order, though for the rest great. Thanks for being patient as I had two small kids with me.

My overall experience was good but I found the brunch menu a bit restrictive- the mains were good - in terms of portion size and quality but the dessert a lemon cheesecake was pretty awful - the staff were friendly and helpful

It took 10mins to be seated even though we had booked. The table we were seated at was free and ready the whole time. After ordering from the brunch menu we waited 30mins for the food to come and the restaurant was not full. Not the usual service from Avoca.
