Review Salty Sow - Phoenix

Rob W
Nice atmosphere. Brittany, our waitperson was excellent. Food and drinks were tasty. Only quibble is the duck fat fries were not warm and somewhat stale. The busser said they would bring fresh ones. Our wait person returned a few minutes later and said they were fresh from the fryer. They weren't, they were warmed up under the salamander and 5 minutes later we're cool and stale like the first order. Bad decision from the kitchen. Otherwise, very good food, appetizers (deviled eggs are to die for) and great ambiance. Overall, recommended. We'll be back. As I said Brittany was great!

Food and service always great. Very clean. We get a bunch of appetizers and then try to eat our entrees and can never eat them all! Good thing this place isn't close to us or we would be broke and fat ha.

Excellent place for dinner with great ambience and service to make it a perfect location for a date night or a family get together. There is a walmart right behind the lot and hence parking spots are plentyeven if you do not find one right next to the entrance. The service is a standout with our waitress 'Amber' ensuring that we were well attended on a busy Friday evening. Reservation is recommended considering weekends can get a bit busy here. Don't miss out on their signature cocktails! We ordered the chefs vegetable platter and chicken thighs with mashed potatoes; bith were super yummy. They have a great choice of desserts as well; we had the Banana Foster Beignets and it was mouth watering with the vanilla ice cream. Overall a great restaurant and must visit around this area!

TLDR version: It's a little expensive and the servings are a bit on the smaller side. But the food and drinks are worth the cost in their flavor. The restaurant was fairly loud, but it's too be expected at restaurant on a Friday evening. We made reservations, but arrived early and we were sat before the reservation time. The restaurant was very clean and well decorated and in a nice area. The chorizo stuffed mushrooms (see picture) had excellent flavor and were delivered quickly. Their beer selection is kind of small, but they have a very interesting, albeit expensive, cocktails list it's with a try though. The pork belly (see pictures) was very tender and cooked perfectly it managed to be juicy and flavorful, while the outside remained crispy, the stone ground white corn cheese grits it came with was remarkably tasty. The swordfish grilled cheese (see picture) was more of a Grilled Swordfish Sandwich with a little cheese. Not that it wasn't very tasty but just know that it won't be as cheesy as a grilled cheese anything should be. We were still hungry despite an appetizer and the main course, so we enjoyed the fried bananas and the chocolate cake and the bananas were the highlight of everything, definitely try those. The chocolate cake was a little too thick for our preference but still very good. Overall, it's a little expensive and the servings are a bit on the smaller side. But the food and drinks are worth the cost in their flavor.

Casual place with an upscale feel. Menu is all on one page which allow them to perfect what they offer. Had the stack of pork chops, which literally was a stack of three. Very tasty.

Fun and delicious! My friend invited me here so that was my first time going there. I like the atmosphere and also the food was good. I tried the beef shoulder which was very tasty. We also tried the duck french fries and I would say that they were good but nothing extraordinary. Overall I would recommend this place if you like to dine and enjoy a little ambiance as well.

Food is great, very good service and live music. Their take on an Old Fashioned was unique with a bit of a bite. The special the day I was there was a 8oz country fried ribeye.

Took my parents here and they loved it. Service was very good. We had a glass crash on the table and wasn't sure if it got in our appetizers. Our server took all 3 back and got new ones rushed out to us

Tasty but pricey. Good portions. Beautiful presentation. Excellent service. Great for a date or special night out.

A fun combination of heavier and lighter meals. We had six of us, and there was something fabulous for everyone. As well, the terrific staff helped to make this a true five star experience.

You should come here for the Butterscotch pudding dessert. Full stop. It's that good. I'd drive across town JUST to eat that...but fortunately most everything else on the menu is pretty spectacular too. I've had had fish, steak salad, and me wife has had blacked rib eye tacos and various salads. All have been pretty spot on. In fact the steak salad had about the best steak I'd ever had on a salad. Not everything is perfect. The Brussel sprout dish wasn't anything special, and the overly hyped banana beignet dessert was way too greasy but otherwise a solid 4 star place. Then I came for brunch buffet. Every single thing was stunningly good. Not at all the mass produced buffets you get at hotels or casinos. 5 star biscuits available to order too. Overall. Probably my favorite restaurant in town right now.

Great interior design and bar set up. The braised beef shoulder was very well prepared, the lavender in the sauce added an amazing floral notes to the dish

I have eaten at the Salty Sow since it opened. The pork dishes are the stars. Every time I stray the food takes a step back. Like tonight with the prime rib. Sorry Salty Sow I need to support your strengths and what makes you different. I don’t want you to become another watered down tourist haven. My wife’s pork stew was marvelous. Our son was rewarded for trying the duck confit.

Atmosphere was perfect. We sat outside listening to the live music. The food was just as perfect as the atmosphere. We had two small children with us and they enjoyed the food and music as much as we did.

I only had an appetizer, the chorizo parmesan stuffed mushrooms, but it was great. Great beer/drink selection, as well as great service.
Nick Swearngin
Great service, awesome looking place and pretty darn good food.
Tristan Petricca
Wow, place is bomb! Came here for happy hour, had a great IPA and the chili chicken and cheese tacos. The tacos were INSANE!!!!
Joni Ramirez
Husband and I went here for a date night. It was very, very good food plus our waiter (John? ) was amazing. One of the co-owners was in house and stopped by to chat and even brought us an extra side of sauce. The smoke on the brisket and on the chicken wings was intense but delightful. Found out the chef was from my motherland, Texas, and that definitely explains how much I liked the brisket. The Brussels sprouts app was delicious. Will definitely be back!
Della Pace
My second time here and it didn't disappoint. The food was so good!! The happy hour menu is on point and the specialty drinks are just yummmmmm. Our server ,Mason, was great. If you haven't tried this place, GO!! What are you waiting for? I recommend the crispy brussel sprouts, the filet was so tender and juicy and the cheesy grits.. oh my, I could eat a big bowl of those alone. Don't even get me started on the desserts.. they were fabulous.

This place NEVERRRRR disappoints! Thank you, Ryan, our server, and Doug, the General Manager, for taking GREAT care of us last night! We've been fans since Salty Sow's first year in operation. They just keep fine tuning an already great running engine. Food and service is always consistently good. We typically ask for the same server when we book our reservation, but occasionally we just spontaneously show up and take the luck of the draw - and it's always been good. Last night we decided to sit on the patio for dinner because the night was cool. Service out there was spot on, and Doug, the GM came around several times to make sure all was well. The appetizers are delicious. I highly recommend the fried green tomatoes, though the ONLY criticism I'd give is that they give you 3 on a plate - and to share there should really be 4. I've made this suggestion many times. The guacamole with it is more than enough for 4 pieces. The pork shoulder, their beans, green chile pork, prime rib - ALL delicious and consistent. And if you make a meal of a salad, you WILL make a meal and a half with their salads. Though often "noisy" during peak hours, I LOVE the vibe of this place. It's where we go when we have guests in town and want to treat them to a delicious meal and consistently great service.

Fabulous brunch , now my favorite place in Phoenix for dinner and Sunday brunch, The food just has the right seasoning and not overbearing. Amber our waitress was outstanding ,even if she had to show me how to open the water bottle. Stop in give them a try , well worth it!
Karen Adamski Bethune
This is a greasy restaurant/gastro pub for pork, beef, chicken, and fish. They have a great happy hour. On the weekend they have live music on the Paris. They have a great wine list, as well as great cocktails. If you like port belly or would like to try it, stop in. Food, wine, cocktails, and service are great.
Amy Aliese
I'm a vegetarian but friends wanted to go, so I joined. The beet salad was amazing as was the quinoa and lentils. Not too many other choices but enough for a filling, tasty dinner! The sangria and creme brule were quite good as well! We were all happily sated at the end of the meal.
Erik Magnuson
Nice restaurant. laid back. Good food but sometimes even on a busy night it's really loud. Good place to bring the family for special occasions!
Charity Packer Woods
I had a great time on my birthday! Service was excellent & the food was on point! It came highly recommended and I will definitely do the same & we shall return!

Our server Dustin was great. Enjoyed the music, food, beer, and cocktails. Would like to see a more robust bourbon selection. Was excited to see they had Tower Station on tap.
