    Their wonderful staple. My go to breakfast spot
    Rose C.

    Love this place. Always good service and food. Parking is easy. On weekends, there is also a nice farmers market nearby.

    Fried oysters

    Came here for oyster fest we tried the fried oysters and they were so salty. We did not get much service here either. Not sure if we've return.

    Literal dollop on top and melted down mmmmm so good cinnamon roll
    Ash G.

    Well... this is awkward, I cant help but feel a little disappointed, the food was good don't get me wrong, but the standard fell. OK let me explain, the cinnamon roll alone which was a rock star was nothing like its former self, and we always start with the cinnamon roll. It was a disappointing start and then being seated next to a really loud table when it's just the two of us, just kinda makes it seem like a little more effort should be given. I had the steak benedict and that was insane, they even managed to cook it a little pink for me as last time it was definitely over cooked, this time around it was perfect and cut beautifully and just tasted amazing. We also had the corned beef, also a favorite of ours and a rock solid choice Here's to bringing back the cinnamon roll to its former glory!!

    Brunch menu

    Met a couple of friends for brunch on a rainy weekend day at Salt and Iron, and it's definitely a good place to go if you want to catch up with your girlfriends over some good food. I had the spicy avocado tartine which was very good, but I would have liked a serrated knife to cut it with; I was a bit concerned that I was going to fling my tasty food off the table! My friends ended up splitting the crab Benedict and modifying it all over the place and the waiter couldn't have been more helpful in getting them what they wanted. They did comment that the two crab cakes were very small, but did enjoy their meal. Since I had a longer drive home, I ordered the guava lemonade. I didn't really taste any guava? My friends did enjoy their mimosa and Bloody Mary. I would eat here again.

    Experience fine dining without the hassel of Seattle. Salt Iron is a wonderful place not to deep in Edmonds but in the downtown area. The atmosphere was amazing, very welcoming, food came out quick and hot. The food definitely left an impression bursting with unique flavors and that was fine dining +. The dining experience without the narcissistic attitude that leaves ur plate full because u were disappointed. Salt and iron will leave u wanting more, chefs kiss, perfection. Enjoy any occasion dinner. Anniversary and even ur first dates come and enjoy smart casual fine dine.

    Brulee cheesecake
    Wen C.

    I came here for dinner and it was amazing. I thought that every dish was executed perfectly. The amount of food is actually pretty good too - I had to get dessert to go since I was so full! The steak tartare was well balanced. In my experience, it's way too easy for the seasonings to overwhelm the beef, but in this case the ingredients complimented each other and I could taste the quality of the beef. The calamari was cooked excellently with great breading, and I loved how they also breaded and fried the pickled jalapeno to switch up the dish. The result was so flavorful I didn't need to use any of the sauce The house salad was on par. The house made bread was so crusty outside and tender inside. It's not bakery level, but very delicious. 10 oz filet mignon was a lot of food. I think honestly the amount of steak was larger than 10 oz, and it was served with rich and creamy mashed red skin potatoes and asparagus. The red wine demi-glace was almost redundant since the steak was so juicy! I had to take my brulee cheesecake home since I was so stuffed and wanted time to take a walk and digest a little bit. I loved how the sugar crust on top was still intact and crunchy. The cheesecake was so creamy and smooth. The lemon pastry cream punctuated the vanilla flavor of the cheesecake and switched it up. Overall, delicious!

    Coffee Crème Brûlée
    Michelle C.

    I was surprised with a visit to Salt & Iron for my birthday! We've been wanting to visit after hearing so many great things, and as expected, it was bustling on a Saturday evening. With so many dishes to choose from, I knew I needed to try some of their seafood dishes. We decided to share the: - Oysters on a Half Shell - A classic choice for an appetizer - Seafood Risotto - The texture of the risotto was great - not too runny or clumpy. It comes loaded with shrimp, scallop, and halibut - yum! - Porkchop - The Korean pesto added such a fun flavor! - Coffee Crème Brûlée - This is generally one of my fav desserts, but the coffee cream took it to another level, balancing out the bitterness with the sweetness I think the amount was perfect to share and we both left pretty full and satisfied. Our server was also so friendly, and let us know that the dessert was on the house since for my birthday. With great food and a lovely ambiance, it was the perfect combination for a birthday outing!

    Came here for Valentine's Day, I'm a little late with my review, but I was thinking about the dinner today and it was amazing! I got oysters their granita mignonette was incredible!! The oysters were the cleanest oysters I've ever had and I am a self-made oyster connoisseur. I also got the steak frites. Steak was cooked perfectly, and the Demi glaze and chimichurri sauce were great.

    Art C.

    Nice place in downtown Edmonds but a bit overpriced. Service is a little slow but that's probably due to the regular brunch crowd. Nice brunch options with fresh seafood selection. Recommended if you're waiting for the ferry . Nice clean place .

    Steak
    Izabella O.

    I loved the atmosphere and feel of this restaurant. Home-y and cozy! We orders the calamari, autumn salad, and bread for appetizers. I ordered the New York strip steak and shrimp. All our food was prepared to perfection!! Our waitress was attentive but still let us have space and not feel rushed. We will be back!

    Tammy L.

    The service was friendly and welcoming. I arrived 20 minutes before my friend and was still seated at our table while I waited. The food was delicious, everything tasted very fresh, from the bread and tartare to the entrée and dessert. The wine selection offered a great variety, and the ambiance was beautiful. I especially loved the décor. I look forward to dining here again in the future.

    Had such a fun birthday dinner here! I had the salmon and it was amazing. Loved the outdoor seating

    Sausage & Bacon benedict
    Sin-Yaw W.

    Visited a friend nearby and yelp helped me to this place. Good thing we reserved, as the weekend-only brunch was clearly quite popular. Someone ahead of us was turned away from an hour-long wait for a table. Biscuit and Gravy was generously portioned. The gravy was thick, satisfying, and packed with flavor. Biscuit was still crunchy after soaking in all the gravy. Crab salad got lots of crab meat and a dole of tobiko that was slightly wasabi infused. That was a pleasant innovation and we enjoyed it. Sausage and bacon benedict was perfectly prepared, as mimosa. Bloody mary came with a healthy piece of sausage and shrimp. By itself, could be a small meal. Yelp at its best: picking a restaurant where we never been.

    Good times with the boys and some good mfing steaks.

    Absolutely! We welcome celebrations of all kinds, and can provide a nice romantic atmosphere for you both to enjoy.

The pickled radish balanced the bone marrow so well, and the flavor of the marrow w the seasoning was a great balance of savory flavors. The Santa Maria Plate had chicken, picanha, skirt steak, and sausage, but we asked for the extra surf and turf that came with scallops and prawn. The meat was very well prepared, with specific high marks for the skirt steak. Perfectly cooked and had that charcoal flavor you just can't recreate. The resateaunt is situated next to an art gallery and offers views into the gallery which is such a nice design touch and adds to the overall ambiance and experience.

My group also ordered the duck confit from the fresh sheet, the salmon and the steak salad, which they enjoyed. We also ordered dessert. We had the cheesecake and the sorbet.

On a cold or wet day, though, there are a couple dozen tables inside, and one of them has a firepit in it. You walk up a ramp from a busy street, and inside you see old dock pilings and ship rope cordoning off the upper bar from the main dining area. Kids are welcome, at least part of the day. We rolled in for a late lunch, and found a HH menu on the table. Perfect timing! 25% off drinks and apps. Our server was friendly, knew the menu cold, and had everything written down right away. They clearly know what they're doing here. We had waters before we knew it, and cocktails not long after. I got the southwest burger, which is messy af, but worth it. Good flavor all the way through, cooked perfectly medium. She had the seafood basket with tots, which was all also exactly at temp. The chunk of whitefish was steaming hot, really juicy. Scallops were legit. Big props to them for their tartar sauce--awesome dill pickle flavor. It gets loud in here, and rumor has it the owner is often in the corner, keeping an eye on everything. I could see it being pretty insane for a big game. They have lots of Kraken signage up, and you know it's a Hawks bar too. It kinda seems like everybody in Edmonds who's fun to be around has probably hung out in here, maybe multiple times. It definitely felt like the whole neighborhood was welcome and well taken care of. We had 2 entrees and 4 cocktails for $80. These days that's getting to be a fantastic value, especially at a place where they do everything right. I'd happily come back.

We didn't have a lot of time to just eat and relax as we were in a rush to get somewhere else right after, but I had scoped the menu out beforehand and knew what I wanted. We ordered the Pumpkin Quinoa Salad, the Campanelle Ala Pistachio, and I got a Cherry Bomb mocktail for myself. I will say that the Campanelle Ala Pistachio was what I wanted, as a fan of both pesto and nuts like pistachio. We both happily ate that up. I expected the roasted pumpkin to be warm in the salad, since that's how I would have done it myself, but it was chilled and cold. I don't consider that bad, but it wasn't my preference especially on a cold night. However the major disruption to our dinner was in the middle of conversation that while I was sipping my mocktail through the straw, my tongue hit something weird and stringy. My partner watched as I stared, confused and shocked, while pulling a very long blonde hair out of the straw. The end of the hair was embedded in a small piece of macerated cherry. I imagine what might have happened was the bartender lost a hair in the cherry mix while preparing my drink. While I guess this shows the drink was made fresh, it certainly didn't feel sanitary having pulled another human's hair out of my straw (and there's no way they could claim it's mine since I have dark hair). I lost my appetite for the drink immediately and ended up ordering a different kind. While our server whisked the old drink away fairly quickly, it didn't feel much like an apology. The Mocking Pear was much better though so I didn't feel the need to complain any further. I'm open to trying this place out again when the menu rotates, but I also hope their bar is a little more careful next time, that was definitely not the best first impression!
