For the mahi-mahi fish tacos I did wish that they listed what was inside of them on the menu. For reference, it included a little bit of slaw, red onions + tomatoes diced up with an orange sauce that was a bit spicy. There was also a green crema at the bottom of the tortilla shell. Overall, it was good. However the wait seemed extensively long & the staff was not very attentive. I waited 30+ minutes at my table before I went inside to ask for everything to be boxed up to take home. The outside tables could also be cleaned a bit better - my table was a bit dirty with leftovers on it.

But after driving back home we were underwhelmed by the food. Three of us ordered old bay fries but only one person got them. My wife and I got sandwiches with no toppings. Any other place we order sandwiches from they ask if you want lettuce, tomato, etc. Disappointing because we were all so hungry and it was $80. Lesson learned.

For our entrees we had the evening special rigatoni with vodka sauce and lump crabmeat and the lobster ravioli. Both were excellent and we took half home.

Summer Salt in concept, is an exciting, inventive meal, with a focus on locally sourced…read moreingredients. In reality, this was a grossly overpriced meal for a lot of hit/miss items and rather small portions. To start, we reserved the covered patio. The chairs were wildly uncomfortable with no low back support. Service was friendly and attentive, always refilling waters and clearing plates. I do appreciate how the staff acknowledged our special occasion and even printed a keepsake menu. This did not go unnoticed. Now for the food: You pay $95/pp for a 4 course meal. 6 small (shared) plates that are merely 1-3 bites per small plate, per person, and an entree and dessert of choice per person. $95 pp wouldn't be horrible if the small plates were executed properly and if you got more than 1 small parm crisp and 1 small fritter per person just as an example. The portions were laughable, and this was moreover a tasting. Some items needed simple basics such as salt and acid to round them out. The beet salad, green beans and fritters were severely underseasoned. The star of the show was the linguine and clams. We both ordered this. This portion was appropriate. Again, for the small salads/bites, a pasta dish per person and a slice of cake per person, a more appropriate price point would have been approx $55-75 per person contingent on your entree (there was also steak and fish). The lemon mirror cake was a nice ending to the meal and we appreciated the complimentary coffee. We left with the general consensus that it was good, not great, nor memorable, and felt we overpaid for the quality and portions. Of note: this is also a BYOB.

Ordered take out. One broiled combo, one crab nacho. Food was ready when promised…read more First, the combo. 4 small scallops, one average piece of flounder, six shrimp and a 3-4 oz lobster tail. Handful of fries and a small cup of slaw. Scallops though small very sweet and succulent. Five star. Flounder very mild, almost tasteless cooked perfectly. Lobster and shrimp average at best. Fries cooked great but needed salt. Coleslaw was just cabbage mix and mayo. Crab nachos...a total let down. Chips were very thin and normally that would be a great thing but they quickly became soggy under the weight of the toppings. The tomato Pico tasted like a very garlicky Italian sauce. Don't get me wrong that sauce had a wonderful taste but it just wasn't a fit. The cheese sauce would have been good with the fries. The lump crab was just a smaller than average serving. Crab was fresh and sweet but as a whole these nachos just didn't work. Would we order again. Probably. It was ready as promised and order was packed nicely.

Great date night spot. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and designed.
