Salt Wood Kitchen and Oysterette - Marina (CA)

5 /5 Daphne Engelken: From start to finish the evening was splendid! The perfect place to celebrate our daughter’s 28 birthday. Fresh Nova Scotia oysters, aromatic cocktails, new on the menu, steamed mussels served with artisan incredible Otto bread. The piece de resistance was the service delivered by Shannon! From her descriptions and terminology to her passion of her trade and the space in which she is able to share her knowledge. Thank you all!

4 /5 rodolfo ramirez: This is our 3rd time coming here for the thanksgiving buffet, all food was delicious except for the calamari ceviche which was very under seasoned. Our server was great but the bartender was not so great, she did not want to make a drink from their menu because it had to be done a certain way and loudly stated that "they should just order something else". Our table was close to the bar so we heard her displeasure about making the drink that we ordered. Other than that it was great. I had the driftwood old fashion (seasonal drink).

5 /5 Kenny: Went for our anniversary dinner with some friends and had an amazing time. The food was spectacular, cocktails were on point, and a very nice cozy vibe.

5 /5 Cameron Oelsen: Definitely on the pricey side but worth it for a nice dinner out. The Cauliflower was phenomenal and the servers were so accommodating. Recommend a try!

3 /5 Sarah Kingston: We did not enjoy the dining experience at the Salt Wood Kitchen. We were staying at the hotel (reviewed separately - it was great) had partly booked as the restaurant looked great and we knew we wouldnt want to drive to go out for food. We saved going for our second night when we heard the Jazz was on in the restaurant. We were looking forward to what we thought would be a lovely, elevated evening of oysters, drinks, good food and music. What we found was a VERY busy open plan restaurant with way too much going on. The jazz was on but the poor man was completely drowned out by the wedding happening in the next room. We werent informed that this was happening when we called to book and it was completely disruptive to our evening. They had a loud DJ and there was no door separating the space, just a curtain. We also had a group of about 20 guys directly next to us and the door was constantly opening and we were directly in the draft. We shared food and only had three glasses of wine between us and the bill came to nearly $200. The food was decent but hard to enjoy in the chaos. We also werent informed that the main we both wanted was sold out until we went to order (and they had checked in several times). They did throw in a very tasty ice cream as we were celebrating, which was appreciated. But the experience left a lot to be desired and given it was the only restaurant on site, ever so slightly tainted our otherwise very positive experience at the hotel.
