   The service was exceptional. I arrived before opening and was allowed to sit at a table. The salmon cape was outstanding as well as the mussels. The grilled calamari were tender. The accompanying eggplant were nicely cooked small cubes. The tomato sauce was flavorful. There was no rush. We enjoyed ourselves at lunch

   Black Salt immediately gives you a feeling of being in a high end restaurant due to the service and ease with which are cared for. Every little item is placed with care and choices are identified for this evening based on a knowledge of the food and menu. Every item was delicious.

   Wonderful, fresh, inventive seafood dishes for very enjoyable evening out while traveling. We will definitely be back. Kenny was a very attentive server without excessive hovering. Lots of locals were there for happy hour. Their happy hour offerings must be very good! We were reserved for the dining room, and the service was wonderful even though we were on the early side of dinner. Loved the daily specials that seemed super fresh. Red Snapper tartare was amazing. The ahi tuna and crab cakes entrees were also fantastic. Drinks were well prepared and portioned. The cranberry orange crème brulee had a refreshing flavor and was just the right touch for a shared dessert. Thank you.

   Wonderful dinner of fresh branzino and hearty bouillabaisse, with a nice pinot gris. Service was excellent and very cordial. Dined in the delightfully sophisticated back room which was a new experience for me. Bravo, Black Salt!

   The Pemaquid oysters were bright, briny and beautifully shucked. Half our party was delayed by an hour and the wait staff was incredibly understanding, even though it was a busy Saturday night. Everything we ordered was fantastic--with special recommendation for the lobster tempura.

   The homemade ginger beer was great! Tell them less ice for a stronger taste. The crab cake was delicious! The branzino was amazing as well. Great service and food quality.
