I had a great experience at Salt + Ko. The salmon and grits were absolutely delicious--perfectly cooked, flavorful, and very satisfying. I was also pleasantly surprised by how good the coffee was, which is always a big plus for me. Even though the restaurant was clearly busy, the service I received was excellent. The staff was attentive, friendly, and professional. There was a lady at the bar loudly complaining about the service, but from my perspective, the team was doing a great job handling a full house and keeping things moving smoothly. Overall, the food, coffee, and service made for a really enjoyable visit. I'll definitely be back! I had a great experience at Salt + Ko.

The waiter was delightful. Steak bites were seasoned well. Just kind of sparse. What prompted this review was the food server. This person was beyond apathetic! He would not use a tray so always only came out with 2 dishes. His lack of enthusiasm and care less silence was so lackluster. Probably just a good place for happy hour... read more

The food ass 64 dollars for skinny lamb and a palm sized plate during happy hour food was not good drinks overpriced

The food is always great when I come here, this my third time. the service is always terrible. Seems like it gets worst everytime. They move really slow. The bartender is bad because it takes forever for drinks to come to the table! tonight it took me over an hour to get a drink when I was sitting at table 1 and my food never even came out. It took over two hours before they took my food order' She came with the bill. Then I learned that she was the manager and she tried to argue with me about not paying for a drink that took Too long to come out! I had a party of four. Which was originally a party of two and then two more joined us, but the two that joined us got their food and drinks before we did! The table to the right of us got their food and drinks before we did! This is ridiculous. They planned a fight night party today and didn't staff enough people to handle the business they received! I was forced to pay for a drink that took over an hour to come to my table and then was told I was giving my food for free even though I had to wait over an hour for service and over 2 to receive it! The manager likes to argue apparently and doesn't care about customer service and customer experience! And i for one used to work at a restaurant and have over 13 years of knowledge! I was a manager a bartender and a waitress before in life! She is dead wrong. And she tried to blame her overwhelmed server! Reality check that there should never be just one server on the floor on a Saturday night read more

This was my second time at Salt + Ko this month, and I had to bring my sister and cousin along because I knew they'd love it too. We all agreed--the food was absolutely delicious! The standout for us were the cheeseburger fries (pictured)--so flavorful and perfectly indulgent read more

To be honest, I have been trying to have this culinary experience for months. I won a gift card at an event in the spring and was so excited to try them out. They are located in the Radisson hotel. Please note that they are closed on Sundays and some holidays. So, today was the day! I had lunch on Veterans Day. I was excited they were open. First, The Good: 1) I was greeted by Andi/Sandy as soon as I walked in although she was helping other patrons at another table. She was holding down the restaurant all by herself with five parties. Bravo beautiful! 2) SALT + KO has tons of seating options from cozy fireside chairs, couches, high top and regular tables and the bar. They also have a private room. The restaurant also has a DJ stand and dance area. They have a schedule of nightly events Monday - Saturday. My lunch selection was their Shrimp Po' Boy and their 4 Cheese Mac & Cheese. They were both delicious. I had enough of the Truffle Mac to take home for later. Now, The Bad: 1) It was 63 degrees in the restaurant. I sat right by the thermostat. 2) They were out of several things on the menu. I really wanted to try the sautéed broccolini. 3) The prices that were charged on the check were a few dollars higher than the price on the menu. I let it slide because my gift card was covering most of my bill. Please update your menu prices. It matters. Thank you. S + K is available for dining, events and catering. read more

First experience here and will be my last. My cousin reserved a table in their private dining room for 20 people. We were there for five hours! First it took like 45 minutes just for them to bring us a menu. It took so many hours to get our food and then when we got it, it was warm and mediocre at best. The cheese grits had little to no cheese in it, no seasoning and the creole sauce that they put on top of the grits was a mess! Tasted like cocktail sauce with a little bit of creole seasoning. What Creole sauce do you know is tomato based and looks more like A spaghetti sauce? Imagine seeing it on top of some grits, with some flavorless, dry seafood. The waitresses took hours to attend to us , when we got there is was empty so I don't understand why they didn't spring into action to fix things/ get things together before we showed up or during, Unacceptable. Lack of communication from staff/manager, after our party finally showing concern from waiting for hrs we were finally, told us they ran out of certain food items.... So you mean to tell me y'all didn't know you had a reservation booked for 20 people? Get it together. Then another hour and a half went past and we asked again then they blamed it on being short-staffed, but they were helping people in the main area that got here way after us, word of advice If you know you have a big party reserved, prepare a AHEAD OF TIME . We should've been your first first priority. I'm sure my cousin had to pay a deposit for us to sit for hours and for the food not be that great, or service was so disappointing. read more

We had a fun date night. We got here early and beat the crowd. The food was delicious. The people were nice, and the music was fun. The atmosphere was beautiful. read more

First, let me make this very clear: a reservation at Salt and Ko is NOT NECESSARY. The restaurant was completely EMPTY when we arrived on a Saturday night. Unfortunately, I didn't know that at the time I made the reservation. They charged my credit card $25 to "hold" the reservation. The website clearly states this fee will be refunded at the time of service (aka taken off your bill). That did NOT happen. Our server was kind and professional, and we did enjoy a few cocktails and appetizers. They were good enough, but nothing particularly special or memorable. When the bill came, I mentioned the $25 reservation fee we had already paid online. I was then informed it would not be taken off the bill, but instead refunded back to my card. That also did NOT happen. Sixteen days later, still no refund -- and to make matters worse, I received another email saying my reservation had been saved. At that point, I had to call my credit card company, cancel my card, and dispute the $25 charge. A complete waste of time and energy over something that should have been simple and automatic. Because of this experience, we will not be returning. read more

The food is flavorful and cooked well, the service was great. The owner is very personable and friendly, and we felt very taken care of. The space feels a little large, but it is modern and clean, and has some really cute little loungey areas; one seating area with a couch is near a fireplace, and it's really cute over there. The bar is lit nicely. For drinks, we had the owner's recommendation, which is called "bath water." Inspired by Salt Burn, this cocktail was made with a smoky mezcal and coconut water, rimmed with coconut shavings. It was smoky and sweet and tasty. I also had a basic vodka soda, and it was a nice pour. I do wish they had a selection of signature drinks, but if you know what you like, they've got you covered. For food, I had the lamb chops and green beans, and my friend ordered the salmon, green beans and mashed potatoes. Everything was seasoned very nicely and cooked well; the zip sauce was really yummy on the lambies. Both of us really enjoyed the green beans which come with carmelized onions on top, and were a standout side, where at many restaurants I feel like they're either under or over-cooked and lack any flavor. Mashed potatoes were good. I was excited to hear that they'll be trying more specials coming up soon; I'd love to see what they come up with because their catering is so good. I think this is an ideal place for lunch right now; if I worked in Southfield, I'd be here more often, as there aren't too many places like it. It would also be great for happy hour. I will say that I think the lighting was a bit too bright for dinner; I'd suggest they dim those lights. We were also there during the transition from dinner to R&B night on a Saturday night, and that time between 9 and 10:30 is a little odd - seating is removed, lounge furniture is brought in, and a DJ sets up and begins to play music. I think it would be ideal if they broke the space up a bit with more permanent soft seating, but I imagine the logistics are tough going from lunch all the way to late night. I do love that they have a big dance floor - this would be a great place to have a birthday party, and it looks like some promoters are packing the place out for events. I'd love to see that continue. Overall, a good experience, and I'd love to try one of their nightlife parties. read more

I loved my beet salad. The smash burger was tasty and presented well. Staff was attentive. Nice music, not too loud. The only reason I give them 4 stars instead of 5 stars is because there are no mocktails on the menu. I cant wait to try their brunch ! read more

My meal here was excellent. The "holy shitake" handheld was a fresh take on a vegan sandwich, and the side of broccolini was perfect. The service was attentive although the food was slow to come, especially in a mostly empty restaurant. The real issue was noise. The restaurant is poorly designed for sound management so every sound carries. Despite being mostly empty, the room was very noisy, which only made the patrons noisier. The canned music was also very loud and jarring. The lighting is also harsh. The combination made me want to leave ASAP. Despite enjoying the food and the courteous service,, I would not eat three again. read more

My son chose Salt + Ko to cater his wedding. We went to the tasting and the food was great. What we experienced at the wedding was nothing like what we had at the tasting. The steaks were so undercooked, even people that liked their steaks rare didn't care for them. The salmon was cold and dry. The vegetables were not fresh - they were obviously frozen as they were soggy. The manager wouldn't answer calls or emails from anyone associated with the wedding. So unfortunate. So much money was spent for such a disappointing meal. Do not use this company for catering, read more
