  • This is my second dinner at Salute and I'll give this nice little neighbourhood restaurant (Laurier blvd) a lukewarm approval on the food. I started with tomato-braised meatballs as my app and had cod with scalloped potatos as my main. My wife started with a tomato salad app and had porcini risotto as her main. We shared a warm chocolate pastry for dessert. My thoughts: I waited at the bar for my table to be cleared and suggested to the lady who seated me that I'd enjoy a cocktail while I waited. "Good idea", she replied. And of course I sat there with no drink for 5 minutes as no one was tending bar. I let it go. No big deal. So we order cocktails at the table. bartender comes back..."sorry sir, Can't make a Manhattan, I don't have the ingredients...may I offer you a Martini. I settled on an original concoction he invented a few days earlier...and it was ok...but not anything I would ask for a second time. The Tomato-braised meatballs were fine but cod was disappointing. It was tender and buttery, but really nothing beyond ordinary as far as flavour goes. The Porcini Risotto was extremely salty and the menu does not note that it's prepared with truffle oil. I am borderline allergic to truffles, so factor that into my comments on the Risotto. The dessert was tragic. It looked like it was scrambled together in a real hurry in the hopes that we'd bolt it down and leave, so the staff could go home. And maybe, just maybe that was the underlying factor that night. It was early Jan. The Christmas holiday and New Years is just a few days in the rear-view and maybe people just weren't up to the effort. BUt it was my second dinner there....and it reflects my first experience...so I think that's the last time at Salute for us. The staff were great and the wine was nice...so for the sake of the very nice people working there, I hope others have better experiences than mine.
