Saltwater Grille
Reviews
This was a great experience from every aspect. Service, Atmosphere, and Food was all exceptional. The wine list was creative and a well thought out. Would love to come back.
The Saltwater Grille is an exceptional fine-dining establishment with gourmet seafood and excellent service! With its extensive menu options for both lunch and dinner, (not to mention the decadent dessert menu) there is a dish to suit every diner's preference. It is easy to tell the food is prepared properly and with wholesome ingredients too. My favorite dishes are the wedge salad, the crab cakes, the pesto salmon, and of course the warm bread pudding. Of course, dining out should be an enjoyable experience that extends a beyond savory meal. The hospitality I experience while dining at the Saltwater Grille is just fantastic. The new owners, Brooke & Andy, have done an excellent job of reaching out into the Litchfield community with open arms, kind demeanors and a kind staff. I've spent a good portion of my life working in the fine-dining industry at a country club, and the Saltwater Grille is absolutely comparable in both food quality and service. I would recommend the Saltwater Grille to anyone looking for a proper, enjoyable dining experience.
Terrible experience. We ate inside and had fruit flies, flies and large mosquitoes hovering over our meals the whole night (2.5 hours!). The lobsters were so overcooked they were spongy and the corn on the cob was rubbery as well. The waitress was good, but seemingly embarrassed by the food. My father-in law shelled out over $300 for this dinner for six. Will never return to this establishment.
Website, Online Reviews, and Atmosphere: initial impressions good until... arrival. No air conditioning (HOT and HUMID day), generic menu with choice selections. Service staff very pleasant however confused with only three tables being waited on...(delivering food to wrong tables).Salad(poor quality and charging an extra 2$ with entree)Chowder(mediocre and also 2$ charge with entree)and lastly Surf/Turf, under cooked over $. Will not return.
Atmosphere was very pleasant and wait staff very attentive. I thought entrees were overpriced for what you got, $24 to $44. The Lemon sole was excellent but it came with a mountain of sticky flavorless white rice and only 2 small slices of grilled zucchini. The cup of soup which was included was delicious.
