    Wife and I wanted to go down the peninsula to Lookout Point, but needed to find somewhere for lunch first. Saw a few seafood places along Wynne Rd in Ridge, so went to check them out. The first one we came too was SALT and it looked pretty good, so we just went with it. The food was very good. My wife had the crab cake sandwich and I had the blackened mahi tacos. The homemade chips were excellent. There were a couple times the service was a little slow, but it seemed that they might have been a little short of staff. I know the crab cake sandwich said "market price" in the menu, but $34 still felt like a lot. But outside of the prices, it was definitely the type of place we'd come back to... but maybe only for a special occasion, not just a lazy Sunday afternoon.

    I was so disappointed in the food and service. I was so looking forward to trying this place. It took at least 45 minutes to get the appetizers and another 40 minutes to get the entrees. The wings and hush puppies were the best items we ordered. Salmon was over cooked; ordered a Greek salad, but it was a tasteless pasta salad. But the water view was great!!!!

    Crab Cake dinner with truffle potatoes and Brussels sprouts

    My husband and I had the most wonderful meal at Salt Waterfront in Ridge, MD. From start to finish, everything was incredible. We started with the hush puppies with honey butter which were warm, fluffy, and absolutely addictive. I paired them with a French spritz with pomegranate juice, one of the best cocktails I have had all summer. It was light, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. For entrées, we tried the catch of the day, snapper, which was grilled to perfection with a garlic basil butter. It came with coleslaw and fries, and I have to say the fries were some of the best I have ever had. They were crispy, well seasoned, and impossible to stop eating. I also ordered the crab cake dinner, and it was a standout. The crab cakes were packed with delicious lump crab, beautifully seasoned, and easily among the best I have had in years. The truffle potatoes were rich and decadent, and the Brussels sprouts were cooked just right, crisp on the outside with the perfect touch of sweetness. The setting felt like something out of a movie. Picnic tables with string lights overlooked the water and gave us the most beautiful sunset views. The playlist added such a fun and relaxed vibe and tied the whole evening together. Between the food, drinks, atmosphere, and hospitality, Salt Waterfront is truly a gem.

    This restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. I moved from a big city and I've had a hard time finding options in SOMD that I feel are more upscale with a casual feel and this definitely fits the bill. We went on a beautiful spring day and the sunset views were fantastic, the place is well kept and definitely new. What a vibe for summer time - looking forward to coming out in summer and hanging out in their big outdoor space. Service was good - got everything we needed and food came out quickly. Food and drinks - drink menu is full of MD staples and isn't upscale by any means but we really enjoyed the crushes and margaritas. The food was excellent with a great option for more expensive plates and lower cost options. I do think they have an opportunity to improve their entrees to include more options for vegetarians, they gladly modified my entree to leave the sausage off the pasta but I think any modern menu should have ONE vegetarian/vegan option that doesn't require modification. Will absolutely be back.

    What a hidden gem! We were driving down to Point Lookout Lighthouse in Scotland, MD and decided to take a break. This restaurant is right on the water has inside and outside eating plus picnic tables and a bar right on the water. We just stopped for a drink, but the food that was coming out of the kitchen looked delicious. Our server was super friendly. We will definitely recommend to others

    Trio dip

    Was visiting from out of town. My family an I tried this new restaurant in the marina. The ambiance was lovely, you couldn't ask for a better scenery for where we were. The appetizers and orange crush drink were the best, the entrees were okay. We had the trio dip, I suggest you have with the warm pitas, not the tortilla chips. The raw and fried oysters were terrific and I loved the orange crush. The service was okay. If I find myself there again, I will just have appetizers and drinks.

When you walk into the entrance, you immediately see beautiful waterfront scenery. This particular day, there were hundreds of geese feeding right in front of our table.

    First timers on Solomon and at Bugeye Grill. I will admit that we stopped by this restaurant…read morebecause it was one of the first ones that had outdoor seating (we were visiting with a dog). The restaurant had a nice variety of dishes and specialty cocktails...I think that I was more interested in the latter. ;) Since I have not visited Solomons, MD before, I cannot comment if the prices are comparable to other places in the area. However, most of the entrees were in the $25 and up range. I thought my fish and chips (I forget the actual name of the dish) were fine, and my spouse really enjoyed the crab cake sandwich. Although I thought the portion sizes for the sandwiches and fries were fine, the serving size of the mussels seemed a bit small. However, this could have been an optical illusion because the serving bowl for the mussels was HUGE, so the amount of mussels could have appeared to be smaller than what it was. I thought the outdoor patio was great especially with a view of the water and folks going about their business. However, some may not like the setup because you are right on the main street, which can be a bit noisy especially if a lot of bikers are cruising up and down the strip. Parking was a bit of a struggle (not the fault of the restaurant). During our visit, all of the public parking lots were full. However, we visited on Mother's Day weekend so maybe there were more folks (including us ) in the area than normal. I'll admit that since this was my first time visiting the area that I'm not too familiar about the ebb and flow of parking. Overall, our server (who reminded me a bit of a young Jodie Foster) was amazing. One thing that I really appreciated was her telling us about a potential delay for the food due to a large party. Although no one wants to hear that after ordering food, I think it's nice and considerate when a server provides a heads-up so diners can adjust accordingly.

    The food was decent, but nothing remarkable. The portions were on the small side…read more The service was good. The ambience is a bit odd. Black, red and white and kind of cold feeling.
