A modern oyster bar focusing on Southern cuisine, highlighting fresh seafood and seasonal vegetables to share. Saltine, named as a nod to the plain cracker often served with seafood, pays homage to Jackson's rich history with oysters and seafood. Oysters are sourced from the Gulf of Mexico, east and west coasts and Canada and served raw, smoked, wood-fired and fried. Saltine also offers an extensive beer list with over 30 taps of craft beer, as well as a wide selection of rum and several signature cocktails. Lunch and dinner are offered daily with a brunch on Saturday and Sunday. Plus, happy hour specials daily from 4-6pm!

    My daughter and I split an order of fried calamari and a dozen shrimp boil. Both were fantastic. Our waiter was attentive without hovering and helped guide our choices as far as what to order. The price was reasonable for what we ordered. It was a little on the noisy side, but we didn't mind that.

    The only downside of the evening was a large party had ordered every oyster available for the evening. The food was excellent. Wide variety to choose from. Drink menu also was great. Beer, selection and tap wall were excellent. Very enjoyable evening.

    Even though half of their menu was oysters, they initially said they were out of oysters and then they just said there were too many tickets to cook oysters and then they said there was only expensive oysters left which were twice as expensive as the ones advertised. The restaurant was very noisy. We had to ask for things as basic as a napkin or place setting.

    Too many tables placed in main dining room. The food was good. Took a while to get a table even with reservation. It was a holiday night so grace was given. Still gave high stars the drinks and service was great.

    Not great for a date. They put us at a tiny table right up on the people next to us. Couldn’t have fit another person between my wife and the couple next to use. Awkward. A very long wait for food. It was cold when it arrived. Pass

    The restaurant was really busy so the staff were probably overwhelmed. The food was good for the most part. My eggs were room temperature. We had eight people at the table so they probably had my food waiting for everyone else’s food to be ready. It took my daughter’s kids meal a while after the adult meals were ready. We had an issue with the first server. My friend spoke with the manager about it and he gave her a complimentary desert and gift card. Not sure if he realized there were two different families at the table, as I was not offered anything.

    In town for a business trip. What a nice way to relax after a long day service was prompt pleasant and professional, and the food was delicious. See you next time.

    First time visit to Saltines was a big hit! Great food and atmosphere- a bit noisy with folks enjoying themselves. Oysters and po-boys were excellent. Cinnamon roll cheesecake is a must have! Our server, Kiera made our first visit extra special!
