We enjoyed our meal. Jalepeno corn bread was delicious, as was the seafood chowder! A great spot on the Halifax river walk with views of the water. read more

Thirty minutes wait for a hot tea mid afternoon. Never arrived. Servers out of control. Managers absent. Wait staff running the show. Servers passing off tables to others. Saw another couple walk out as we did. Lack of management and service. Menu was odd too. Pass. read more

We stopped here at the last minute and the food was worth it! The freshest brick oven pizza and great salads. The jalapeño cornbread was great also. Nice atmosphere on the water. Definitely worth a stop! read more

Loved this place. Visiting from LA, and I wanted to get some good fish and chips. Thankfully Yelp didn't let me down. The spot had gorgeous decor, nice and open space, and a deck over looking the water. Outside there's only 2-3 tables by heaters, and we weren't at one, but our server brought us blankets. Service was great! Now on to the food. I loved the batter, the tartar sauce, of course the fish was made to perfection, and the fries were so good! I got a salad on the side which was well dressed with a house made salad dressing. The table wanted to share a pizza and I'm so glad we tried one. It was really flavorful and I loved the crust. Great service, great vibe, great food, I definitely recommend. read more

Had lunch here. It was so amazing. The ocean views are spectacular! Big windows on there sides! The food and the service was outstanding too. I didn't get one of their wood fired pizzas but several in our group did. That looked delish. I went for the burger. It was incredible. So many layers. All of them completely yummy. If you're in Halifax you need to spend some time here. We enjoyed ourselves so much. The place is beautiful too. Thanks to the team for a great lunch adventure! read more

Salt + Ash Beach House is a great restaurant by the Halifax waterfront - we were able to sit outside for lunch. We ordered the Fish & Chips ($28.50), Crab & Leek Chowder ($18.50), the Iceberg Wedge Salad ($18.50), and the Jalapeno Cornbread ($10). Our favorite was probably the Crab & Leek Chowder - it was different but super flavorful with lots of chunks of crab in it. Your could really taste the jalapenos in the cornbread, but it wasn't overpowering. The Iceberg Wedge Salad was disappointing - it was heavily coated with dressing, too much cheap cheese and too much processed bacon bits. The Fish + Chips came with a nicely sized piece of fried fish which was crispy on the outside; make sure to ask for malt vinegar to go with that! Overall we had a nice lunch outside at Salt + Ash! read more

My sister and I took a trip for our first time to Halifax and we went here our first night. It was a Friday around 730 pm and we were able to get a table outside with a beautiful view! Our waitress was so nice and she stopped to talk with us about local shops. We really liked our food, my burger was really good and the patties were nice and crispy. I would definitely recommend this place to others! read more

This spot had the best ambience! It has a great view of the water but honestly the layout and decor made me just want to keep my eyes inside instead of on the Harbour! The food was really great - I had the chili glazed pork belly and the kale quinoa salad. Will definitely return! read more

Salt and Ash lager. Very good Jurk Haddock tacos17 CD. Very tasty. They were not very large but with the tater tots it was a nice meal. They did not have any hot spice, some did not want to order for fear of hot spice. Meatloaf sandwich was very good and was of a substantial size. Service was good Note they were using the brunch menu well after 12 on a Saturday. read more

Every course was fantastic, great service from Sean and fantastic views. I enjoyed the ambiance and laid back ambiance. But the fresh ingredients and skillful preparation and presentation make it great date night or casual nite out. Can't wait to try happy hour or lunch menus read more

In the touristy waterfront district, Salt + Ash manages to attract a crowd of locals, and in particular, local white-collar professionals -- despite the "beach house" name, nobody is showing up in shorts and flip-flops. The name is nonetheless pretty apt, because it's right on the water and boasts a convivial atmosphere -- cheerful and quite loud, but in a pleasant way, with festive vibes that don't cross the line into drunken shouting or anything like that. The decor, like the patrons, is quite polished, and floor-to-ceiling windows wrap around most of the restaurant, affording impressive views from virtually every table. Those windows, btw, are practically equivalent to one-way mirrors -- from the outside, it's not apparent that Salt + Ash is actually open, even when the dining room is jam-packed. The menu leans toward hearty fare, such as chowder and deep-fried this and that, but also offers lighter bites, such as crudo and "charcoal veggies." There's plenty of seafood, and quite a few dishes are inflected with spicy elements usually associated with Mexico, the southwestern U.S. or Japan (e.g., jalapeno cornbread "elote" with queso fresco, tater tots with sour cream, salsa and avocado, and scallops with chili oil and cilantro). There's also plenty of pizza, which is ubiquitous around Nova Scotia, perhaps a legacy of Giovanni Caboto, better known as John Cabot. The pizza that you'll find around the province is often quite good, and Salt + Ash's pizza is no exception. We ordered the "maritime mushroom" pie, and it had a pretty exemplary crust (lightly charred, foldable but not floppy), plus a legitimately wide variety of fungi, including maitake, shitake and portabella. (The variety of cheeses, however, could be scaled back -- the Boursin-style cheese was a bit overpowering.) Fish and chips are also textbook -- one enormous fillet, a lively tartar sauce and a stack of battered-spud spears. I strongly recommend the "beach house salad," which is a big bowl of vibrant lettuces, pickled red onions and shaved beets. The aforementioned charcoal veggies are also excellent; they consist of various root vegetables cooked al dente and plated with style. The salad and the charcoal veggies are both steals at just $6CAD. And speaking of prices, they're extremely reasonable across the board, given the quality, the upscale vibe and the super-skillful service. You'll pay about as much for similar dishes at the boardwalk shacks just a few hundred yards away. So yeah, if you're strolling around the waterfront or working nearby and feeling hungry, Salt + Ash is among your very best bets. read more

Came here after trying to get a table at the French not on the same block where no one even acknowledged us. So the service at this restaurant was a welcome surprise. Every one was very nice, the vibe in the restaurant was very relaxed, and the food came out in good time and was delicious! read more

My friend and I came here on a late Sunday night. The place was already thriving with their bingo night. The ambiance of the restaurant has a beach house vibe with modern architecture and fireplaces everywhere. They also have outdoor seating on a patio with fire pits as well with the view of the harbour. Happy hour happens twice a day every day and we happened to be in during happy hour as well. We ordered their pizza of the week which was their posh Hawaiian pizza and their nachos but with tater tots. The food was really good, and the service was great as well bringing smiles on everyone's faces. If you're in Halifax, I would definitely come back here on any night. read more

Had a nice lunch with some friends at about 1 PM. Quite noisy in the restaurant. The food and service was really good though. I had the smoked haddock chowder which was delicious and different. Friends had the haddock tacos because it was taco Tuesday. The single piece of haddock was deep-fried. Hubby had the babe burger which might've been a little overcooked. Fries were hot and crispy and good. A kid got the kids pizza which was huge for a kid serving. The ice cream of the day was strawberry pineapple and three scoops, served in a chilled bowl. All in all a good experience, except hard to talk with the noise level. Harbor views are exceptional unless it's foggy. read more

We had lunch at Salt & Ash on our only day in Halifax. We knew it was a good choice upon walking in. A modern, yet cozy feel with fire place and wood burning oven. The dining room is set on a pier so overlooks the harbor. The staff were very attentive to two small children. We enjoyed the delicious burger cooked over the open fire, lobster corn chowder, kale Caesar, and grilled vegetables. All dishes were noteworthy. For ambiance, food quality, great views, and staff, this was very good value. Highly recommend. read more

Had a nice lunch after getting off the cruise ship. Some lunch places on the wharf seemed over priced and reviews were mediocre. SABH was a little further down the wharf but worth the walk plus we got to sit outside because it was an usually nice day in October and they had heat lamps. We had wedge salad, tacos and lobster corn chowder. The restaurant was relaxed, reasonable, nice ambiance, the food we ordered was great and the service excellent, what's not to like. read more

We were craving a burger so we went to a different place but it didn't open till 4. So we said we wanted to try salt and ash so we went today. We both. Ordered BEACH HOUSE CHEESEBURGER 23. pimento cheese, dill pickle, iceberg lettuce, thousand island sauce, fries They had no fries gave us tater tots Kinda odd The burger was fairly small with a ton of 1000 is lol and dressing on it Seemed to be more for youngsters. Definitely not a gourmet burger. Place was dead but service was still slow not sure why We definitely won't be back. read more

Service was friendly and fast. I found the food delicious and not overpriced - I had the pull apart bread appetizer and grilled haddock. Restaurant is beautiful inside and they must have great ventilation because it did not smell smokey despite the open fire wood oven. Highly recommend! read more
