    A very nice brunch, except that that meatloaf choice was barely lukewarm.
    Salt & Ash - HalifaxResponded today
    Hi Robert, Thank you so much for joining us, we're sorry to hear that your meatloaf was barely lukewarm - this is of course not how it is intended to be served. I've passed that feedback along to our kitchen team so ideally we can see if that's a continuous problem, or a one off. I hope you let us know in the moment so we were able to provide a different (warmer) option for you! We hope to see you back soon. - The Salt & Ash Team

    This restaurant is beautiful. The location, the ambience, the decor- all excellent. Service is solid. There is definitely room for improvement with the menu. We dined with a group of 8. Most were relatively pleased with their meals, but there are limited choices. The steak was good. Medium rare was cooked just right. The gap here is that it comes with some steak butter and is presented on a bed of brussel sprouts. That's it. Steak and 30ish brussel sprouts? Jalapeno cornbread is phenomenal. Overall - loads of potential here. Menu needs a refresh.

    Overall food was good ( tacos and Cheeseburger). When we entered the restaurant at first we were told they didn’t accept walk-ins, even though I could see they had tables available but still they couldn’t accommodate us without a reservation, so we used the app to book a table for like 15 mins later. That first impression was not that good for us, but once we got seated everything went smoothly. The kids menu is just ok, we ordered chicken fingers.

    Hi Mike!! Thank you so much for visiting with us here at Salt & Ash. We've been in the process of training a brand new Hosting team, so feedback like this is valuable to aid us in pin pointing additional training needs. While I am not sure what happened in this exact situation, sometimes we do hold the door for Walk In tables if we are busy, the kitchen needs time to catch up with an influx of orders, or any other number of reasons that might require us to prioritize those booked through the reservation system. We are very glad that you were able to snag a table on the online platform and that we could get you in! We are glad the rest of the your time with us went smoothly, and are happy to take feedback on what else you'd like to see added to the kids menu! - The Salt & Ash Team

    Our server was attentive and very knowledgeable. If she didn’t know the answer she was happy to go find out for us! The food came out extremely fast and hot. Our server never left us waiting to order another beverage and the drinks arrived fast. We had such a wonderful experience! We highly recommend this establishment. We are all current or past servers and we were all so impressed. Thank you for a wonderful evening celebrating our friend’s birthday!
