Salt on the Pier

Service was great, food was a little on the average side. My scallops were under cooked and the fish was a little dry.

Lovely food with an extensive menu and a huge choice of beverages too. Really lovely staff and so nice on a hot day sitting outside on the balcony listening to the sea.

This was a first Table booking and another return visit back to Salt on the Pier Restaurant out at New Brighton by the Pier.
I have to say that this is an innovative Restaurant which seems to be doing something right.
Even though it was early at 5-30 p.m. the restaurant had 14+ people and it continued to fill up with customers.
While waiting for our food to come , we had a discussion as to why this was so.
Salt on the Pier has themes and special offers more than the average Restaurant reminding me of one of our very Favourite restaurants
" The Old Vicarage " out at Halswell which caters well for locals with their offers/loyalty card rewards.

Back at Salt on the Pier, On Thursdays , they have a Steak offer at $10 which sounded very cheap so we will now have to go back and try it for ourselves.

On this Thursday, I had the Chicken Tikka Marsala Curry with Naan and vey nice too.
For her, it was the Salmon with vegetables cooked Al Dente and that was a very good dish too although a bit more Pesto would have been good.
Desert was a definite with my choice the Sticky Date pudding and she choose the Double Chocolate Cheesecake.
Both were good value for the price especially the Cheesecake which was a generous serving.
Salt on the Pier has its own busy vibe and seems well supported and part of the local Community.
We think that it is well worth a try - and we will be back again too

Service was very good and attentive without being over the top and we were very happy with the whole experience.

Parking is o.k. with options by the beach but not all that close but no problem on a fine night.

Awesome food and stunning view! Service was lovely too! Definitely coming back!!

All four of us thought the food was excellent. Presentation was good and the variety of tastes and spices made a memorable meal. Service was very good as the restaurant was quickly filled.
Overall very good value for money.

We are a party of four and ordered Blue cod fish&chip and Seafood bounty. The portion is decent and taste delicious. Really good experience for all.

Very good

The seafood chowder was delicious.

Lovely experience dining with our friends at Salt on the Pier.The food was great and servings were so generous.We did not wait long for food to be served and staff were friendly and helpful.

Great service and delicious iced chocolate drinks! Food was average

very good

Great restuarant with an amazing view. The staff greeted us on entry and were very polite and consistant in seeing if we needed anything else.
The meals were absolutely splendid with huge portions and the seafood and meat cooked to perfection. Highly reccommend and will definately be going back

On arrival we were ushered to our table . Because the restaurant was very busy with a function we asked to be moved further away and this was no problem. The service was excellent and our meals arrived promptly. They were delicious! We would have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant to anyone. In fact we will return....

Relaxing with great service the lady who served us it was her first night working and she did a wonderful job

Four of us had a great time and loved the food, enjoyed everything we chose. That feeling when you come away feeling well fed and happy. The waiter was great - put us at ease and nothing was a problem. I've recommended First Table and Salt on the Pier to everyone I've told about it since. Thank you for a great experience.

Great service bad food

We all enjoyed delicious meals which where well presented. The dessert that followed finished the meal off nicely.
The service was great and as for location, Seaview wins all the time.

Dinner at Salt on the pier was lovely. We had a fantastic view of the sea, and it was a nice atmosphere. The service was excellent, our waiter was very friendly and good at his job. Our food was well presented and most important very tasty. Will continue going back.

Have always had great service and good food at Salt. The Orange and Vanilla Creme Brûlée is wonderful.

Firstly, the view of the beach and pier, and the sound of the waves was beautiful. We ordered the sharing platter for an entre and it was delicious. The chicken and squid were nice and crispy, but the ribs were amazing! I will definitely be back for more ribs! I ordered the lamb shank, it was falling off the bone, the vegetables were yum and the sauce was gone too soon! My partner ordered the surf and turf and commented how good the prawns were, and the steak was cooked just how he liked it. Service was attentive, and food will have me going back!

Amazing food

Our first time to Salt on the Pier. What amazing views and a lovely restaurant. Friendly staff and lots of space. WOW the food was amazing and generous. Great tasting and everyone loved their meals. We are definitely going back and would recommend it to anyone. The surf and turf and seafood platter were huge highlights. Steve

Food was fantastic and our waiter was friendly and attentive. Most importantly, we got a spectacular view of Brighton beach, the pier and the yacht I didn't know had beached ashore! It made for great conversation

It was a great time. Being that it was a quiet Wednesday we were actually the only two in the whole restaurant for the hour and a half that we were there

In result the service was impeccable
As was the food

A great time. Look forward to my next visit

All good

Food was amazing! Portions maybe a bit small but other than that was all fantastic!

Great

Superb food and excellent service - thank you Salt on the Pier for a wonderful dinning experience - we can't wait to come again :-)

Great place for a nice relaxing family dinner. The view of the pier in the evening was just stunning

Great attentive service. Love going here

Not bad.

Nice food and fast service with a view

Great selection including plenty of gluten free options. Highly recommend.

Excellent waiter; very friendly . Food was great . A lovely evening thank you

Salt on the Pier is always one of my favorite restaurants and again we had a fabulous meal with excellent service.

Service was great, very friendly and the food was quick to come out to us.

Great food and service. Would not only be back but would also recommend.

Very Good

It was surprising quiet for a Friday night at Salt in the Pier. We got excellent service and the food was amazing! The meals were actually so big I couldn’t finish them. But so tasty! We will be back for sure!

The servings were big n yummy. We love the seafood chowder. Great experience, thank you!

The entree was very minimal only just enough for 4 people, the mains were presented beautifully and cooked well-desert was good and not a long waiting time in between so that was good. Only one staff on which he managed well but could've done with another helper to do drinks and so on, we would defiantly return as its local and was very nice.

We had lovely meal at the Salt on the Pier. Thank you.

It was my birthday so we went to Salt on the Pier. Nice view, lovely ambience.
We ordered blue cod fish and chips which was not up to standard as fish was quite soggy. Moroccon filo was very tasty dish . We will order it again. We also had desert which was excellent.
Service was great.

best service , best food

Wonderful food, wonderful service, wonderful view

Loved the food - the calamari was tender and perfectly cooked. The steak was also cooked to our liking. The service was excellent too. And the view, priceless!

Food was good. Service was too. Good but not great

Fabulous meal. Restaurant was a little cool to start with, but attentive staff soon had it sorted. Garlic loaf for starter with a glass of wine was very tasty. We had fish of the day - superb, and Sea Food Bounty - delicious. To finish, Cheesecake of the day - Banofee - wonderful, and the Orange and Vanilla Cream Brulee - lovely creamy and sweet. Relayed our feedback to the staff which was warmly received. I'm sure we will dine there again.

Very good

Gorgeous food, lovely service and atmosphere, totally recommend and will come back again - using First Table makes this such a wonderful meal. We had whitebait fritters, lamb shank and pork belly - each delicious! And desserts were yummy!
