I really had a great time at this restaurant. The food was authentic and I was very impressed with the flavor. Make sure you grab a reservation because it is really busy. read more

See all

The food was great, the drinks amazing. We had a few cocktails, including their mole old fashioned and their signature margarita. Amazing! The classic ceviche is well balanced, perfect tanginess to saltiness. The lechón was tender, the sides (arroz and verduras for us) were well seasoned. For the price point, great. The only thing that we fussed about about were waiting 15-20 mins at the beginning to get our drinks and the bottle of sparking water. The server, however was very friendly and accommodating. Also, all of our food was brought out at the same time: the cool ceviche and the warm lechón, so the latter got a little cold while we had the former. Perhaps they should ask in what order guests want their food to come out? So really a 4ish, but I'm rounding up because we had a great time and the atmosphere was great! read more

Stopped in last night after a show at Boom Chicago across the street (so-so btw). The mezcal mule was tasty and quite stiff. And the streetfood platter was perfect for two, although it was pretty heavy with all the fried bites. Service was attentive and suggestive...overall nice late evening stop for food and drink. read more

Salmuera - Streetfood platter and mezcal mule - Mexican Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

Starting with a mezcal bar on kings night is never going to end well! Although, the Chipotle Margaritas I had here that night were almost worth the hangover the next day. I don't remember much about the food, drinks were great though, friends loved all the cocktails! Atmosphere is cool, great decor, expect very slow service though on more popular nights - ordered two cocktails at a time because of it - which definitely contribited to the hangover... All in all, a nice night out, would be back to try the food again so I can actually comment on it! read more

Great little spot with charming atmosphere and tasty eats. We had two of the ceviche offerings and a fried cheese appetizer and everything was very tasty. Service was on point also. Should have made a reservation to get a table inside, the place was packed. read more

Great drinks, great food, fantastic service. Overall, the best restaurant experience I've ever had And if you get Igor as a waiter, you're in for a treat read more

I wanted to like this place so much more than I did. I reserved a seat on the outside terrace, which they did not allow when I arrived (even though there were plenty of tables available). The service was fine but not outstanding--and it was difficult to flag anyone down for a second drink. The food was good enough. read more

This place is legit. This place was recommended to me as one of the only "real Argentinian places" around as most of the other ones are fake knock offs. Everything was incredible! read more

A beautiful courtyard, nice wine list, great food and lovely staff I would definitely recommend!

The food here is authentic and super delicious. I would recommend the octopus, it was scrumptious. To top it off they also have amazing cocktails and great service. While a bit pricier I would certainly recommend it. Depending on when you visit, a reservation might not hurt read more

Been there twice. First time on a busy saturday where the food was amazing!! But the service really bad. Forgot our food, waited 1 1/2 hour to get it and then waited 1/2 hour just to pay even we asked the waiter once to come. My friends love the place so I gave it a second chance and placed at the back of the restaurant with my girlfriend, just underneath the loudspeaker. The music was so high we ended up not talking to each other. A company of 6 behind us shouted so loud due to the music that it wasnt really nice to be there. The food is really AMAZING, but compared to my 2 experience im not coming there again. Its too expensive compared to whai I experienced! The 3 stars is for the food. read more

Make no mistake: the food is OUTSTANDING ! Unfortunately the experience was heavily tainted by an incredibly long wait: 75 minutes to get the first course and another hour and a half to see the main course.... Totally unacceptable in all respects read more

So it's my 100th Yelp review....I've been hesitating for months to write one because, well, the 100th review should be special! I then realised that I should take the advice of the great Nike, and Just Do It. The BF and I went out for a dinner at the new Salmuera. It's an impressive visual when you arrive - piglets splayed out, roasting over open charcoal, a large patio and an robust interior. HOWEVER, if you look on their website the photos posted are NOT representative of the food. On the website the food looks very sleek, beautiful, lots of attention to detail. We saw none of that food anywhere in the joint...in reality, what's delivered are platters of deep fried items and piles of meat on wooden boards. Though the interior is rustically cool, first impressions weren't great, as we were sort of ignored in favor of a larger group which came in after us. The 'hostess' seemed to be completely unavailable while sorting table arrangements outside (*TIP for Salmuera: Set up some sort of area where guests know where to stand to get seated!). We finally sat and got to ordering. We got a decent bottle of wine and, *Bonus* - they offer tap water as an option here, which always wins points with me. Our food journey started with the streetfood platter which, though pretty tasty, is essentially about 6 pieces of deep fried food and a sausage for 20 euros. That said, the sausage was absolutely delicious and the platter came with a nice array of sauces. The BF was extra hungry and also got the prawn ceviche, which he tore through like...well whatever animals eat prawn ceviche in the wild. The mains unfortunately, failed to impress. My bf ordered the 400g Ribeye, I ordered the specialty, the roasted pig - you have to order side dishes separately. We opted for the slaw and this pata relleno, which was basically deep fried mashed potatoes filled with meat and egg (*Note: it doesn't mention egg in the menu, which made one side dish a no-go for the boyfriend). My pork was plentiful, tender and tasted nice but very basic. It literally is just roasted pig - nothing to really zing it up. If you just like meat for meat's sake, this will work great for you but I guess I was hoping for something sexier? The bf was none-to-impressed with his steak. It was a bit overcooked (he ordered it medium) and somehow even the pinkest part was tough and a bit dry. Nothing was inedible, just somewhat disappointing. Our food and drink servers (2 different people) were very friendly and there was a different woman seemingly checking on us every 10 minutes. When she asked how our food was, we both kind of did the stuttery silence - not-really-saying-anything-because-we-want-to-tell-you-but-don't-want-to-be-rude thing, and by the time the bf mustered up words, her back was already turned to us. To be fair, we should have been faster but hey ho. When we discussed with her later, she did offer to do something but by then we were just ready to leave so got the check and made a move. I know this place is new so there will always be kinks to be worked out - I get that. Nothing was inedible and some of it was downright tasty! I'd give this place a go in another 6 months but stand by my opinion that they need to re-vamp their website, work on their service model and sort out some of the food. Salmuera is rustic and streety. BE rustic, it's very cool and hipster to be rustic now-a-days, embrace it. read more

Although I live a block away I have been hesitant to try this restaurant because I really loved the previous restaurant Chow and Nghia Nghia and visiting here would feel a bit like cheating. But I had heard good things and my curiosity was sparked. I walked in at 9 pm on a Saturday night without reservation but it wasn't a problem for the super busy staff. They say my date and me at the bar and we ordered some cocktails. While still waiting for our drinks, the host came to get us after about 10 minutes and sat us down at the table by the front door and kitchen. The atmosphere immediately disappeared, the lights in this area were bright, we felt the draft every time the door opened which was frequently, but most importantly we were completely ignored by wait staff from the moment we sat down. We were in no rush though and we saw it was busy so we chatted and waited patiently. However after 20 minutes without our drinks or a menu I ran low on patience and went to find a host, who was very apologetic and immediately came over with our drinks and some menus. I asked to be moved back into the actual restaurant and they had a table for us in 5 minutes. We shared the seabass ceviche to start (amazing!) and ordered octopus and a small portion of the house specialty, the roasted pig. The pork was disappointingly dry, I barely made it through half of it. My date loved the octopus, I tried some but hated it, but that is probably because I'm just a picky eater. The side of grilled vegetables was delicious and so were the margaritas. Salmuera I will leave you with four stars because the friendly service made up for the rough start, however I'm not yet 100% sold on the food. I'll be back though and happy to revise my review if the food gets better! read more

My Mom, Sister & I absolutely loved this place and we all felt like it was one of the best meals we had ever had! We shared the tacos, empanadas, slaw, & rice. The drinks were amazing - highly recommend the spicy margarita, sangaria, and pineapple margaritas. The place was packed with great energy and the staff was awesome read more

My new favorite spot for the moments that I'm craving meat! I started with a great blueberry margherita and a ceviche classico: tender sea bass and nice tiger milk. But then there was the rib eye....Gosh!! I'm not a frequent meat eater, but this one asked for another one. Great quality and perfectly cooked. Grandpa's chimichurry & other bottled stuff is really lovely too. read more

Food is delicious! And the space is intimate and cozy. I ordered the shrimp ceviche and the atun empanada, they were both so good, especially the ceviche, that's a must try!! The tamarindo margarita was also delicious. So happy we found this place and would definitely recommend it. read more

Yummy food and welcoming staff. We especially enjoyed the mixed tapas plate. The meat was tender and delicious - try the sirloin steak!

What a disappointment, highly overrated! Their signature dish, suckling pig, was dry and flavorless. Empanadas could have come straight from Albert Heijn's fridge. read more

Phenomenal food, great fusion. Octopus ceviche was out of this world and the suckling pig was unbelievably delicious. Would recommend!

This was one of our favorite restaurants in Amsterdam. Food and cocktails were amazing. We ordered 2 sampler platters and some sides to try as many different things as we could and it was all delicious! read more

Delicious meal. Excellent appetizers, meats and rice and bean sides. Patient waitstaff who explained the menu. A delightful evening at a great restaurant. read more

This place is quickly becoming one of our favorite date night restaurants. The ambiance of the restaurant is a dim lit atmosphere with candles on each table and a sweet, spicy aroma that hits you as soon as you walk in the doors. The place can get quite busy for dinner so I recommend getting there a little earlier than your typical dinner time or rather a late night dinner time. We usually start by splitting some empanadas and each order a cocktail as we look over the menu, debating who is going to order the best meal. We usually always argue about who's is best but I think that says something about a restaurant. The last visit we split the 400gr Bife Lomo (Rare - Medium Rare) and were in absolute heaven. I honestly am so lucky to have this place right down the street from us. It can get quite pricey so we have to save it as a special treat but the food is always cooked to perfection. The staff is friendly and sweet, however, 2/3 times it did take unusually long for a couple of drink orders and to place our actual order. Then again, the place was packed so I can understand since it was a busy weekend night. I now know that there is a bar in the other room so perhaps may just be picking one up there and bringing back to the table if I feel it could happen again. read more

Holy wow. This was such a great dining experience. I got here early and the place was empty, but the staff was very friendly and I was seated at the table of my choice. The bartender took my drink order, and I went with her recommendation of the chipotle margarita. It was fantastic! I combined this drink with the ceviche classico, which was a lovely piece of sea bass covered with some kind of yummy orange sauce (I'm thinking mango?), and came with some slices of sweet potato, which were also quite good. This actually filled me up a bit, so I hung out for a while and eventually moved on to round two, which was a glass of Malbec and a ribeye steak. Both were delicious! On top of that, the service was wonderful. Not to mention the great ambience! Love it all - will definitely be back!! read more

5 Star dining experience great customer service and delicious food. The Kraken was exquisite and the Mezcal margarita delightful. My favorite restaurant in Amsterdam read more

Great meal w my 16 year old son. Started with a spicy jalapeño margarita and and excellent ceviche. Both are strongly recommended. Dinner was splitting the ribeye and the pork. Wow. Just outstanding in their preparation. The sides of the salad and the fried rice just completed the meal beautifully. I would come back soon if I lived here in Amsterdam. My son just fell in love with Argentine food. read more

An interesting restaurant in the Jordaan, this restaurant blends Argentinian grilled meats with ceviche, empanadas, and food inspired by other South American cuisines. The grilled meat is fabulous, and traditionally prepared, and the smell of the grilled meats wafts out the door as you arrive. The menu works best as a shared plates menu and the flexibility of ordering is very nice - the grilled meats can be ordered by amount from 200 gum to 400 gm, allowing you to order what you want. The ceviche was tasty but lacking a bit in acidity and freshness of flavour but overall the food was good, with nice variety. Service was friendly and efficient. read more
