Our reservation time was fulfilled on time, that was the only good part of our experience. For the price we paid we expected our appetizers to be made in house and it appeared to be tater tots from a bag and thrown on the plate with some melted cheese and onion. Our main course appeared to be store-bought as well. Overall very dissatisfied with the quality of food. The restaurant was very noisy and very bright which did not make for a great ambience. All in all it was a very poor dining experience and I would not recommend it. High prices for low quality food.

My fave restaurant downtown. Cannot beat the Beach house cheeseburger. Chat grilled to perfection. Love the fires on a cold evening. Service is awesome.

We had an amazing experience at Salt & Ash! Booking a reservation online was super easy, and our table was ready as soon as we arrived. The staff were incredibly friendly and courteous—they even offered to take our coats, which was such a thoughtful touch. The restaurant was beautifully decorated with festive lights and greenery for the holidays, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The service was phenomenal, and our server, Paige, was so sweet and engaging. She made the evening even more enjoyable! The cocktail menu featured a fantastic variety of flavors, and the Backyard cocktail (made with tequila) was absolutely delicious. For appetizers, we had the jalapeño cornbread and French onion tater tots. We weren’t sure what to expect with the tater tots, but they were phenomenal—so flavorful and unique. For our mains, we enjoyed burgers, fries, and pizza. Everything was cooked to perfection, with standout items like the crispy, perfectly seasoned fries (some of the best in the city!) and the pizza, made in a stone oven, which gave it that authentic, unbeatable flavor. Salt & Ash is a must-visit spot on the Halifax waterfront. We highly recommend it and can’t wait to return!
