   We had an exceptional evening! Our server, Devon, was truly outstanding—attentive, knowledgeable, and one of the best we’ve ever had. From the start, we were offered thoughtful touches like various water options and a carefully curated selection of wine and cocktails, which set the tone for a luxurious experience. We never once felt rushed or unattended. The ambiance was elegant yet comfortable in our booth, with plenty of space, a beautiful view and a pleasant atmosphere for conversation. We would seek out a booth again! The lobster stole the show, from the roll to the surf-and-turf entrée in my opinion, and the spicy yellowtail on crispy rice was the standout appetizer. Other guests loved the mushroom pot pie. We also loved the Mermaid cocktail and the expertly crafted espresso martinis. They weren’t too sweet or liquor forward. For desert we devoured the bananas foster and molten cake! Parking was easy for us to find just outside the restaurant and very affordable. Every detail, from the service to the food and drinks, was impeccable. We can’t wait to return!

   Decent food. Way overpriced. Service was good not amazing. They did forget the bottle of wine I ordered for about 30 minutes and I had to remind them. Honestly it was good but not worth the $$$$$.

   My boyfriend and I had a great time having dinner! We tried a ton of things and were really impressed by both the seafood and the filet. The cocktails were unique and not too sweet. Atmosphere is fairly dim and music is loud, but makes for a romantic setting. Our server Brandon was great!

   I was excited and looking forward to a delicious meal with a friend. We walked in, and were greeted by a friendly hostess. We were sat right away in the dining area and were given a copy of the brunch menu. They had a lot of delicious and interesting options. I serve for Danielle, greeted us right away. She gave us some great suggestions. We settled on the Seafood Tower for 2. It was a pretty presentation with a nice variety of seafood bites. All of the seafood was incredibly fresh. The portion were a bit small for the tower & the lobster tail was a bit dry. Something that was odd, they don’t offer any accompaniments with the seafood tower (crostini, crackers or bread) the items on the top-tier could use it. They offer a great variety of specialty cocktails, and solid wine choices.  I started off with a delicious espresso martini. The bubbles I ordered with the Seafood Tower was nice, though a little flat. Please note they only currently have two mocktail or nonalcoholic options on the menu.. Heineken Zero & a Watermellon Spritz. For a new restaurant, there are certainly a lot more pluses than not. Some interesting things.. swanky seating but then fast food style dispensers of soap on the walls of the bathroom. One wall dispenser looked broken and not attached but sitting on the counter. Pricing was a little bit high, at least for brunch. Couple of examples… $48 for the crabcake Benedict and $41 for a smoked salmon egg scramble bagel. Dessert menu looked delicious. They do advertise a good looking happy hour, with great week day hours!This is something I would definitely come back to check out. Perfect for a shopping break, time with friends or to pop in after work if you’re in Cherry Creek. And definitely ask for Danielle for fantastic service!

   I had such an amazing dinner with my friends for a fun night out. The food & drinks was absolutely amazing my favorite was definitely the crap cakes, as well as the watermelon drink! If you’re having date night or a night out with the girls I recommend to make reservations and start the night off right with Salt Water Social! Enjoy 😋

   Food was ok- portions were small for the price and the flavors were lacking. Service was good in the beginning and then we barely saw our server after a complaint about the appetizers. Definitely wouldn’t go back, much better places to eat in cherry creek

   Salt Water Social has made its way to Cherry Creek, and it was an absolute hit. The team working there are well trained and the customer service was top tier! From beginning to end, our group of 6 enjoyed everything they had to offer. Christopher was our server, and he was beyond helpful with drink recommendations, and explaining the dishes we had. Couldn’t have asked for a better server. The drinks are well crafted, and smooth. Nothing too sweet, and well balanced. The Dirty Pearls martini with caviar bump was a favorite for me. I loved the rosé bubbles recommendation as well. The food was well prepared, and I can honestly say that if I had to pick a least favorite, it would be hard. Everything was so well made, even down to the sourdough loaf to start with. We enjoyed oysters, spicy yellowtail on crispy rice, caviar pizza, crab cake, Maine lobster roll, ciopinno, ribeye filet, crab fried rice, mushroom pot pie, truffle and mushroom pasta, lava cake, and bananas foster. Phenomenal. Be sure to stop into Salt Water Social, and enjoy a fabulous meal!

    Food is overpriced. Barely seasoned. Get better quality steaks and drinks at Ruth Chris or Ocean Prime. It’s really nice on the inside but not enough of a draw for me to come back.
