During our stay at the Embassy Suites, my family and I dined at Salt City Eatery upon arriving late. Hotel dining experiences can be hit or miss, but this place is definitely a HIT! The food is not just delicious, it's exciting! The chef's passion and technical skills truly elevate the dishes and overall dining experience. With techniques like spherification adding a fun element to some dishes, dining here is a unique and delightful experience.On our first night, we enjoyed bruschetta, steak sirloin, caprese chicken, and chicken truffle pasta – all perfectly cooked, beautifully plated, and generously portioned. The meal was so good that we returned for dinner on our last night. This time, we tried the salmon and burger with truffle fries. The salmon was cooked to perfection, with a beautiful presentation and delightful flavors in every bite. The chef's creation of lemon butter caviar to complement the salmon was a truly memorable touch!It's a shame that the hotel doesn't promote the restaurant more because it truly is a hidden gem! This unexpected culinary experience added to our already wonderful stay at the Embassy Suites.

Needed a late night snack but the boneless wings were the worst I've ever had. To add insult to injury, they didn't even have enough buffalo sauce to cover up the terrible taste.

For being inside a Hotel I am impressed on the food. It was truly good food. Took a little time, but well worth the wait. Now on the other hand Salt City Eatery doesn’t have the best atmosphere if you’re looking for quiet or private. With the hotel lobby entrance right next to the restaurant plenty of noise and action is there for you to engage with, as well and this is not the restaurants fault, but if someone’s in the lobby with there kids, well then enjoy the show with children.Now this is a review from someone who was looking for a nice place to eat that was different, not someone staying at the Hotel, had I been in the Hotel I would not mind that there was constant engagement with others. The quality of service was also decent, but the server was going back and forth between tending us and doing room service, she seemed to have her hands full, bless her heart. I feel as if there just needs some more engagement and maybe something that helps separate and make Salt City Eatery different and special. Most meals were between $18-30. Decent selection for appetizers. No desserts. A bar near by so plenty of options for adult beverages.

I mean they need a better cook! It shouldn't be too hard to make a French toast, is it? So why it taste like charcoal?Nice place though. Kind waitresses.

The most interesting place I've ever seen in a hotel the on demand breakfast that's made in front of you then the bar was awesome. Nice seating and they come get your dishes when your done. Well done
