Staff is very friendly and helpful and the food was outstanding! We ordered a variety of sandwiches, I had the Operator, plenty of turkey, arugula, sliced green apples and brie on a cranberry nut toasted bread. Delicious and plenty of it! (yes, I got a box to bring home half for lunch tomorrow). Everyone enjoyed their sandwiches tremendously and the experience was great. Limited seating area, but we were able to find a table to dine in. 78 years a family owned business, happy to support local!

OMG the views are amazing…read more. Went right in the middle of their tourist season, yes its 2 months long at least and it gets crowded for a small village standard. this place has parking but its a first come first serve and it gets hard when everyone else is looking for one. Love the Lagers ( im a hazy Beer person ) but these remind me of my local brewery. Lovely owners, magagers, team players that make the entire trip well worth it. you can even bring your Pet. Now im sad i dint bring mine :( PS: i took some beer to bring back home and still have it in the fridge for that special occasion. Maybe have a collab with my local place, they make a mean Pumping Spice and Ocktober Fest

Outdoors is dog friendly and I made some furry friends while sitting out for a drink! The German style beers they have on tap included some unique finds and some styles you don't see too often. Bartenders were very friendly and helpful when I was trying to decide what to get, as lagers and ales are not my usual go tos but made up the majority of the offerings. I got the Salem Ale, a helles style, in a half pour- I love that they offer this smaller size since their other glasses are absolutely massive! This was an easy drinking, smooth beer with low hops, just what I wanted for a hot summer day when I only had limited time to spend here. My drinking partner also enjoyed their selection, and we really enjoyed the location. Would love to go back, very chill vibes and the people there were all so friendly and happy, patrons and employees alike - a rare occurrence in Massachusetts!

Speaking of chocolate, it's the local spot for me to go for my treats from home (Crunchie and Aero, I'm looking at you). They always remember me which is a very nice touch. I definitely come in on a basis from nearby Swampscott, but I am sure they have more regular regulars in a city of locals. The attentiveness is so appreciated! They even ordered a product I told them I'd be happy to see in stock! I am sure other reasons went into that choice, but it definitely brought my experience to the next level! In sum, amazing selection, very well curated, and the service is out of this world. Excited that they've opened a new store, because nothing makes me happier than seeing a small business succeed. Most of all, success of a small business well executed by great people who are passionate and good at what they do! Can't wait to check out the Reading location.

The burgers were overcooked, the grated cheddar cheese that was lumped on top was fresh from the refrigerator and not even melted, the French Fries were so overdone and over-salted, they were like wooden twigs.

For the main meals, I had the Mr. Falafel wrap which was freaking delicious. It was the best thing I had tasted there and I'd return for that wrap alone!

The restaurant is deceptively large with a pleasant atmosphere. Service was prompt even on a busy Saturday evening and our server was enthusiastic about the food. I had the goat burger, which was absolutely loaded with goat cheese. I appreciate that they are generous, so be forewarned it is a delicious and messy situation. I also tried the Brussels sprouts, which were terrific. I snuck bites of my husbands truffle fries, which were also super good. My husband ate every bite of his sea salt burger, which he reported was very good between bites. Also worth noting that the burger patties were gigantic. We finished up dinner with an Irish coffee. Yum! Overall, this is a really good choice for dinner. I'd definitely recommend stopping by here for a meal if you're in the area.

The ahi tuna poke was incredible, one of those dishes you could eat every day and never get tired of. I also tried the black bean burger and was blown away. I don't usually go for veggie burgers, but this one was fantastic -- flavorful, satisfying, and made me forget I wasn't eating meat. The service was excellent, too. Everyone was welcoming, attentive without being over the top, and just genuinely nice to interact with. It's rare to find a spot where both the food and the people hit the mark like this. Highly recommend Sea Salt for anyone who wants a great meal in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere.
