| - Salut has had a great start, and has a lot of potential, it just needs to be tweaked a bit for me to rate higher.
I have been there four times now and been seated inside and on the patio. The service all four times was great! Friendly, attentive staff.
I like the house-made cocktails, especially the cucumber mule (but you gotta like ginger beer for this one).
The drawback is the inconsistency with the food. Although I love the creativity of the dishes, I can't count on it being cooked the same way every time. Case in point: Hummus Nachos. Amazing the first time; warm, slightly crisp pita with the hummus, balsamic drizzle, pomegrante, feta and red onion. What a tasty surprise!
The second time the pita was overcooked, crunchy and quite greasy. The third time it was undercooked, soft and not holding the weight of the topping well.
I think Salut is great in concept, the patio is nice and the staff is pleasant. They just need to get their footing with the food. The good outweighs the not-so-good though, and I'll continue to visit.
