Well, goodness me -- this place is just lusciously delicious! First off -- fun atmosphere, with a cozy fireplace, original decor (including oyster shell chandeliers!) and clever signage. Jeremy was our server, and was friendly, knowledgeable, and handled my gluten allergy without batting an eye. The food? Our selections were off the chain. We started with the deviled eggs - extremely creamy; a little kick; topped with a crisp cornichon. We had 4 different varieties of oysters -- all perfectly chilled and served with both cocktail and a green sauce mignonette, with plenty of lemon. Now for the showstoppers -- I had the N'awklins shrimp and grits. Oh my! The shrimp were nestled on top of the silky cheddar grits, and blackened - seasoned beautifully and cooked just right - not mushy or chewy. But the star? The broth! Tomato based, the depth of flavor was unexpected, and so good, I could have eaten a bowl of just that. My husband had Cioppino, which I could not taste due to GF. His description -- the broth was rich and thick -- not like a typical cioppino broth. It was was chock full of seafood -- very hearty -- with mussels; shrimp; calamari; clams, and just a touch of heat. The bread was also a standout -- baked to order, and then charred. You may want an extra piece of bread, he wants me to tell you! Really -- go to Salty Mary's, ask for Jeremy, and stuff yourself silly. You won't regret it. read more

Great Sunday brunch with standout service--friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable. The place was lively and the atmosphere pleasant. Food was decent but not exceptional. The $3.50 oysters were okay, though not especially fresh and poorly shucked (shell fragments left in the liquor). Most dishes were heavy on Cajun seasoning, which overwhelmed the seafood rather than complementing it. read more

I'm not normally a "fish" person, but my wife loves it. Over the years, we've dined her and I'm amazed to say, this is one of the few spots where I actually eat fish. The Cod is deep fried, but you'd never know it. Not a molecule of oil. Nice tasting fries too! In a real twist, my fish-loving wife can't get past the Shrimp with Grits. It's a topsey-turvey world at Salt Mary's. We can't pass the Bread Pudding dessert, either. Give it a try. The menu is full of great food. read more

We had Sunday brunch there and were very pleased with everything the service food and ambiance. I had the Crab cakes Benedict and it was excellent, the hollandaise sauce was very flavorful and tasted fresh, the crab cakes were very good too. My wife had the veggie omelette and it looked and tasted great also. Both came with breakfast potatoes that were chunks of potatoes seasoned perfectly. We'll be back. read more

A group of us went here for Sunday brunch and a book club discussion! I have to say that everyone from the girl I spoke with on the phone, to the hostess to our server were sooooo extremely kind and helpful. Some of us did the brunch menu and some did lunch- all did not disappoint! I ordered the New England clam chowder which was delicious and the wedge salad. That was big and very tasty. They have a great seafood menu and it's decorated really cute inside. I did not order but they had a honey bread on the menu that I saw on another diner's table and it looked delicious! I really enjoyed my dining experience here and really want to try for dinner. It's hard finding good seafood items in the Midwest, but this place is a "catch" ;) Oh, one more thing- the shrimp tacos looked amazing and one of my friends ordered them and said she could have eaten 6- they were that yummy! You get 3 in an order, I believe! Check out Salty Mary's! We will be back! read more

The deviled eggs - as others have said - SO GOOD! Clam Chowder - AMAZING Our server/bartender (bc we had to sit at the bar) was amazing !! (Bree) This is in an old Friendlys restaurant BUT the ambiance is nice. They do have a few tvs and will put on whatever game you want read more

Happy hour. Deviled eggs. Avoid. Seemingly from a bag of peeled, gave up flavor in whites and yolks long ago. Shudder to think what it would've resembled without a little cornichon crunch. Burger. Server: "How would you like it?" Me: "OMG...hand formed?" Server: "Alas, no." So it came medium (ordered medium well) and unseasoned. But best factory patty I've encountered. Rounded edges and likely a half-pound. Great bun. Oysters...substantial...large w liqueur and the mignonette wasn't just poured vinegar...it was chewy, and it bit back! Shrimp...delish, again substantial...'bay shrimp' fears unsubstantiated. Mussels and fries...fantastic. Service...not rated, tho they did forget us in the shift turnover. We'll be back for more and different! read more

Everyone in our family agrees that Salty Mary's has the most delicious food. We always take our out of town guests here! Seafood lovers- Salty Mary's will absolutely exceed your expectations. Delicious food, a calm atmosphere, and genuinely friendly staff will make the visit unforgettable. There are so many good choices - clam chowder, parmesan garlic butter broiled oysters, fish and chips, coldwater grilled salmon, plus the deviled eggs are delicious! Time and time again, we could not leave without trying the bread pudding dessert. We appreciate the hospitable hosts, amazing dishes, beautiful presentation, and nice wine list at Salty Mary's! I feel so lucky we can have fresh seafood locally! I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Ease in parking. Nice ambiance. Friendly service. Excellent food quality and portions.

Came for an early NYE dinner. The service was friendly & efficient. We started with calamari & split a chop salad which is huge! I was hoping for king crab, but they serve snow, so I decided on a blackened walleye sandwich with cheddar grits in place of fries. It was very tasty. My son ordered the lobster roll and really liked it. We ended our meal with a cherry vanilla bourbon bread pudding and it too was delicious. I love this place! Nice little seafood house close to home! Forgot to snap a pic of dessert :( read more

Food was great, always is. Had a great experience with manager. Called to see if we could fit in one more, he put me on hold and I was on hold for a while. I figured they were very busy and hung up. The manager, Max, called back! It turned out they were too busy to accommodate, and that was fine. Great, great customer service!!! Love the food here, but will always remember the customer service! Great job Max! read more

It's been a while. This is one of my favorite spots for oysters. New oyster variety every time I visit this gem! The Freshest oysters on the west side hands down. Carlos is still killing it in the kitchen. Lydia the bartender was fast and friendly, great service every visit. read more

Great V-Day meal with spouse at Salty Mary's in Westlake. 25 valentine's in the books. Holy cats. We had tropical shrimp ceviche, lobster roll, Blistered Shishito peppers, bloody-mary deviled-eggs, bourbon vanilla bean cherry bread pudding and a black cherry old-fashioned for her. Yum. Will return for the 8 other things on the menu we want to try. BTW : the building is an old Friendly's Ice Cream place. Great remodel and re-purposed space. read more

Tonight I had little time but a craving for some calamari and a fish sandwich. I've been meaning to stop in for awhile but decided to call in an order since I had plans later. Thank god I called in the order and I'll be eating inside soon Their calamari was great but the blackened walleye sandwich HIT THE SPOT! And did I mention this was take out?! The bun on the sandwich was perfect and I loved every peppery bite! The walleye was perfect and their thin cut fries complimented the entire meal ... nothing was left. And now when I have a little extra time, I'll be planning when I can head inside for a meal. Thanks Salty Mary's and see ya soon read more

My first time here, not terribly busy at 8pm on Saturday. Food was amazing and fresh. Service from our waitress was good but kitchen and bar was slow for being slow. Lobster roll and oysters were awesome. We had the trout dip and crostini appetizer. A bit pricey but delicious and tasty. read more

This was a very nice stop along our journey out of Ohio. Nice quality seafood (oysters and shrimp). Definitely a solid dining experience.

I was no where near being salty after leaving here! We came here after a recommendation and were really impressed! The menu has a lot of delicious items that don't break the bank and good quality! We started with the edamame, which was soooo yum. Also got the cornbread which was sweet and delicious it could've been a dessert. The honey butter on it is to die for. The oysters also were great. For entrees I go the Po Boy and love how it was just ever so slightly fried. Great casual atmosphere and great food!! Definitely sending the recommendation along! read more

Our server was very personable and the food was excellent. It's a sports bar so it was noisy, and very dark, but that's ok. People were laughing and having a good time. I was disappointed when I asked about the all you can eat oyster special and was told they were "running out" of them, but we were happy with our second choices. read more

Server Heather was great... Started with half dozen oysters... Cioppino was outstanding... Disappointed that they had to remove the lobster from the menu and the lobster mac 'n cheese due to inflated prices but the grouper mac 'n cheese filled in nicely... read more

Stumbled upon Mary's and was delighted with the food and service (joyce). We at at the bar and had oysters and chowder and drinks. It was great. The menu looks really good and cant wait to get back to have a full meal. Thanks KenB read more

A nice place for Sunday brunch... great seafood and non seafood options! Service was very good, but the restaurant was pretty empty while we were there. The blackened walleye was a decent portion and well seasoned. The wedge salad was dressed well with lots of toppings. The fried chicken sandwich had like a fried fish breading/corn meal breading-- it was a unique take and I enjoyed it. read more

OH SHUCK YEAH! Woooohoooo open for business is the fancy, shiny & new salty Mary's! Beautiful interior and nice porch to sit & sip. I've been a few times already bc they are my BFF's & here is what I've tried. First night the big wedge which is an entree in itself. Loaded with bacon which is never a bad thing, and bleu crumbles. Nice plates too! I had the old bay shrimp entree it's the best I've had around here or anywhere. Big firm beautiful shrimp & the zippy horseradish cocktail sauce. Man I love a good shrimp cocktail & this is the tops. Blue point oysters next day for lunch. Beautiful & fresh off the half shell. Again the wonderful cocktail sauce that I like to add, and a vinegar based sauce too that was very good. Clam chowder also that day & it's great. Next trip we had the Phil collins drinkees at the bar. A Tom collins with purple stuff I could look up the ingredients but what fun is that. Nice list of specialty cocktails & a fine wine selection too. Fancy! That night the piping hot chicken reggiano, when max asked me how it was I couldn't contain myself THIS IS F GREAT!! I love a good pan fried chicken breast & this one is times 2! Man it was great & the creamed spinach comes with I smashed it. Shrimp scampi app next day for lunch, great big shrimp wonderful garlic base. I kept dunking the bread in there. Very filling. Such a good baguette I wonder where they get it. What else. Oh yes the deviled eggs, so good. Best I've had around here & I've been so routinely disappointed by other establishments eggs. These have a celery salt on them that is so good I cried. Nice & firm. Large. Little pickle & celery accoutrement. Great! So I still want to try more oysters, then the fried & broiled to see the differences. Such a large menu I've got a ways to go. The hanger steak. Fish & chips. Arctic char. Etc etc. see u there 5 stars easy. read more

YUM! It really is that simple. Friday Night Dinner just went up a notch thanks to Salty Mary's. We have seen the reviews and knew we had to get there before it became to hard to get a table. Party of 3, Friday night dinner and dessert, it was perfect. The buildout at Salty Mary's is clean, modern and spacious, with a great long bar and open kitchen. The warmer weather lends to a side patio with plenty of room. The dining area is a mix of low tops and family tables, so being the party and order from the menu, it's so fresh. We started out with quite a mix of appetizers and soup, with a few entrees ordered for sharing and well a little too much dessert, but we ate it all! The starter menu is hearty enough to order a mix for the table, especially when you get a mix of oysters. Everything was full of flavor and FRESH. I just wish I would have remembered to take a picture of everything along the way. The clam chowder was hearty and full of flavor...so said my mother and husband...it was chocked full of bacon so I had to pass, that only meant my mother got a bowl to take home. The tuna was fresh dnd light, the guacamole was delicious. We ordered 3 sets of oysters and they were perfect...the brine s c hot sauce mix was truly fire. Next up, we had the clams and fish tacos, both full of fresh flavor, toasty bread and perfectly steamed. We were getting full but there was still plenty to eat, the oyster po boy had the perfect bun, spicy Mayo and not yo heavy a dredge, the oysters were huge...only thing kidding were pickles. Did I mention the fries, think cut steak fries, I could not stop eating them. We managed to save room for dessert and we were not disappointed. The cinnamon Bundt cakes were moist and delicious, the cherry bourbon bread pudding was epic...so fresh and perfectly baked, last the seasonal berry cobbler with vanilla ice cream was hit, fresh, perfect crumble and well, I literally licked the dish. The space is inviting, but a little loud if you are looking for more of a quiet space. The staff is full of knowledge and if you are feeling feisty you can order a round for the shucking staff...you know you want them to ring the bell. I look forward to them getting a Sunday liquor license, brunch is just what they need. read more

Don't be fooled by this lovely Lobster roll. What we got yesterday looked like calamari tentacles on a bun. Nothing else. It was rubbery and tasteless. It was a 6" long and the aioli sauce and lemon wedge was the only flavor. The bar tender was nice and attentive. Great service but the prices are too high for what you get! Disappointed for first and last time customer! read more

This was our 3rd visit to Salty Mary's. It is turning out to be one of our favorites. Last night most of the servers all looked to be in their very young 20's. They could not have been more courteous! We started with 6 oysters on the half shell. Extremely fresh and bright. Only suggestion is to add horseradish to the condiments on plate. My husband stuck with his favorite BBQ Shrimp on Grits. He absolutely loved it! I chose the New England Cod Sandwich with Flat Fries. Both were excellent. Fish was nicely breaded without being heavy. I love the flat fries. I highly recommend Salty Mary's! Their food and service never miss! read more

Excellent menu and quality food. Loved the deviled eggs and trout dip. The oysters were great too.

I love seafood so of course this place was on my list. I got it to go and it wasn't bad. I ordered the Steamed P.E.I. Mussels and the Oyster Po Boy. The mussels were tasty and I like it more than the Po Boy. The Po Boy tasted mostly bready an didn't taste of much else. I will say I was quite confused where to pick up my food. If you're eating in you supposed to seat yourself but I saw no instructions of where to pick up. I ended up going to the bar after standing around a bit trying to figure it out. Overall not bad but not my favorite. read more

We had our dog so we sat on the patio. As soon as we sat down, the staff grabbed all the lanterns off the tables. The light in the parking lot kept going on and off so we would try to eat really fast when we could see our food. We ordered drinks and when they were brought out, the server said "whoops we forgot to put salt on the rim of your margarita. And then left. That's a pretty easy fix, but it wasn't offered. The staff offered to bring our dog water but never did. I had to bring the plates inside bc we hadn't seen our server in a while and wanted to leave. The Ciopino was served without bread or spoon and it was just seafood in unseasoned tomato puree. The staff was pleasant, but the management is clearly lacking in staff training. read more

Sometimes you just need oysters in November in Ohio. The space and ambiance leaves a bit to be desired. But anything they are lacking in interior design, they definitely make up for in flavor! I had the happy hour oysters ($5 for 3) and they were great. Large, plump and tasty! The oysters for the day were all from Virginia, and while I generally prefer the smaller West coast ones, it's hard to be that picky in Ohio. I also had the clam chowder and classic shrimp scampi - both excellent and I would order again! read more
