A very good meal, good service. Only down side was a large group that was exceptionally loud. It became hard for the 2 of us to simply hear each other.

I had 2 breakfast, 1 lunch, and 1 dinner at Fresh Salt during my stay at Saybrook Resort and Marina. Each meal was delicious. I enjoyed the variety of wines and interesting autumn cocktails. I was traveling on my own and dining solo, I appreciated that the wait staff was friendly and did not rush me through my meals.
