| - Two things you should know about this place.
1) the food is delicious
2) the portions are tiny
4 of us decided to try this place out on Friday evening for drinks and nibblies...and we definitely got nibblies. I understand it's a tapas menu, but seriously? If the plates are designed for sharing, I would hope that they would a little bit more food on them.
We ordered the beet carpacio, the beef tartare, prawns, risotto, chorizo sausage plate and the pulled pork crostini. We had assumed, incorrectly, that ordering 2 plates per person would be sufficient. Boy, were we wrong.
I cannot complain too much about the quality of the food, wine or ambiance of the restaurant. Yes, the risotto was a bit underdone in my opinion, the 12 slivers (yes, slivers - not slices) of chorizo were very tasty, but way to small a portion size. I did really enjoy the beet carpacio and the beef tartare, but again...too little of either was served.
I guess if you're going to hit Salt Wine Bar you should be ready to pay for the ambiance, the place is lovely, but at the end of the night, be ready to hit up another restaurant for some cheap eats that won't leave you hungry (that's what we did).
