   Excellent food and service. Menu should offer others plates than pork, beef and duck.

   Our food was exceptional. We had the duck, filet and the rabbit hunter's curry stew. All of the dishes were so delicious.... not a bite was left behind. Great wine choices as well. Our waitress attended to all of our service needs and the manager stopped by to check in with us as well. Great informal friendly atmosphere, noise was a little loud, but not enough to disturb our meal. Definitely will be back without hesitation.

   The toast for the appetizer was not really toasted, seemed to have been exposed to too much humidity in the kitchen. The rabbit had a bit of wild flavor which may not appeal to some; my wife did not care for it, but I thought it was good and had a natural flavor without hiding behind the salt or sweet flavors. The duck was definitely a dish I will return for, every bite was a pleasure.

    I love SALT, big fan!!! Great meal and cocktails... although I missed some things from my past experiences: I used to be greeted with a tray of different types of SALTS, is this not part of the meal included no more? outdoor sitting is nice but with some soft music as background would have been great, table wobbled, and my food came without the side I ordered; the side came in almost when we were done with our entree, plus I had to remind my waiter. The staff is very friendly :)

    Overall food was mediocre. I would’ve rather have gone to Salome and paid a little bit more and been satisfied with my meal and experience. Server was inattentive, hovered over me while I was paying/tipping when he barely visited our table the entire night.

    Traveling for business and ‘SALT’ was recommended by a coworker. Ambiance is casual fine dining with quaint tables and a bar in an intimate setting. The show is the chef’s bar with chairs around the chef’s area where all the magic happens. You get an up close and personal seat as the chefs create wonderful plates of local raised beef and pork along wonderful starter courses. The evening in question, they had locally raised beef and featured oxtail croquettes that was fantastic. They have fresh fish as other seafood choices as well and this restaurant easily can compete with other fine dining establishments in major cities for sure. The fried chicken and jalapeño mash is a local favorite and is lightly fried, crisp and so juicy. Overall, ‘SALT’ is a true hidden gem and deserves a round of applause.

    I have been to Chef Delgado's three restaurants, and though I swore I would never go to one again, this was my second time at Salt. I had hoped that the menu and service had changed because the last time I went was during the pandemic height. Unfortunately, things have not really changed; The Martinis are good, but the glasses were only 1/2-3/4 full and they use a single teeny tiny olive. The shisito peppers remain my favorite appetizer there and were prepared beautifully, but the Chips had so little blue cheese that they simply were home-cooked chips. The menu remains a challenge for anyone who doesn't eat pork or shellfish (as it is in ALL of his restaurants) and he does not have ONE Vegetarian option on the menu. Yes, the waitress did say they could do the shrimp dish with mushrooms instead of shrimp, but that didn't sound too appealing. Of the four dishes we had, only the fried chicken seemed a well thought-out dish. The panko-crusted tuna was okay, but the rabbit had very grisly inedible components that ruined the dish. ALL of the entrees, except the Fried Chicken, were not enough food to satisfy without some ordered sides, but at these prices one would think that a more robust offering and full plate would be apropos. Then, as she cleared the table the waitress said "did you guys need anything else?" No "how about dessert" of "how about some coffee!!" So, I asked to see the dessert menu, to which she replied, "we don't have one, but we have three desserts." I asked her to bring all three and four spoons/forks, and asked her if she had decaf coffee....to which she said "no", so I asked if she had espresso, to which she said "we only have regular American coffee." Really? In this day and age? Maybe Delgado doesn't know that it is one of the most profitable items in a restaurant, but having owned three, I can tell him it is, as is dessert. If Bobby Flay wants to beat HIM, just simply make the contest about American/California cuisine instead of mole.

    We went with my sister and brother-in-law who were visiting from NJ. We had four different dinners (scallops, steak, rabbit and ribs) and they were all great. The drinks selection was great, and our waiter was very, very knowledgeable. We all enjoyed it and will definitely return. My only concern was that the noise level was high, I wear hearing aids and this can be a problem, although I was able to hear the dinner conversation. I love that the food is locally sourced when possible.

    We drove to McAllen from Beeville to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Salt was once again amazing!!! My wife had the duck and I had the filet. We always ask to sit at the chef’s bar so we can watch the action and talk to the chefs. We seldom ever get dessert but ended our meal with the most amazing carrot cake I’ve ever had.
