Flavorful food and drinks with great service and atmosphere, but definitely a little overpriced. $16 for four slices of bruschetta, $7.50 for truffle fries, and a $12.50 old fashioned. Great happy hour and brunch specials though.

Pretty good American fare bar food, panini, pasta, bruchetata, and salads. Roast your own smores. A little bit on the expensive side though. Just 2 Entrees and fries came out to be $45.

Usually the food is good, but the salmon I ordered was undercooked. Also, only orzo was served with it. Requested some veggies, but none to be had. For $23.00 I was very disappointed. Best deal is Happy Hour and getting just the appetizers and a bottle of wine for half off. Their appetizer menu is very good. When it is nice the patio is great and dog friendly.

We went to Salut for brunch prior to attending a football game. The place only had a few customers which didn’t explain the somewhat slow service. We sat on the nice patio which is dog friendly. If I was to rate Salut on the taste of their food alone they would be 5 stars on this visit. One friend had the Breakfast Burger which he proclaimed “the best burger I have ever had, no need to add ketchup”. The other two of us had the Biscuits & Gravy. The chorizo gravy packed a ton of flavor and heat. But it was plated on a warped wood board. It was odd and while I am sure it was fine I felt it seemed unsanitary. I will continue to include Salut on my weekend brunch recommendations as the food, location and patio are very good.

Carson was our waiter who was very attentive and not intrusive which is always nice . The food was average and nothing special especially when I ordered a quinoa bowl which was lot of quinoa and not enough of what it was suppose to be i it like no avocado and small amount of feta cheese and spinach . I asked for slice of bread with my salad and got charged for it ?! We are from east coast and even at average or even fancy restaurant we always get a nice basket of bread . Even the chicken kabob had only 2 small piece of pita and the kabob was burned The manager was nice to come by and offer avocado when I was done with my salad and then offered to take few dollars off !

The food was very good and the portion size was enough food. Good value for what we ordered. The service was a slow but we enjoyed the long dinner. Try the bruschetta!

Very fun dinner before a show at Mesa Arts Center (only about 15 minutes away). The hummus nachos should not be missed - tasty and creative. The entrees we had were good and sitting on the patio on one of the first cooler evenings was a great atmosphere.
