Quirky setting with a real Austin vibe. Delicious smells hit you when you walk in the door. Friendly people and good service (but not hoveringly so). Food is great. Portions are large, so be prepared to take leftovers home!

We always love coming to the Salty Sow. We love the vibe and the eclectic menu as well as the awesome drinks! Jordan our server was great. Can’t go wrong with the deviled eggs, Brussels sprouts and duck fat fries for some shared appetizers! Rounded off with the filet, pork belly and beef shoulder. They have a great happy hour! Highly recommend

We had a lovely time and an enjoyable dinner before the Mariah Carey Show on Sunday evening. The only criticism is the air conditioning was too cold--makes it hard to concentrate on food and conversation when you are shivering!!

First time at this establishment. Very nice place. Our waitstaff was highly knowledgeable and quite helpful with the menu. The Truffled Deviled Eggs were very tasty and the brussel leaves (flash fried with a bit of Agave and golden raisins were great choices for appetizers. He did not steer us wrong on those. Will definitely go again.

I’m so excited for the updated menu (I’ve been waiting 7 years for something new). All the new additions were amazing. Highly recommend the pimento cheese bread & the new redfish.
