Brighton’s iconic seafront seafood restaurant has had a HUGE rebrand and refurbishment... and honestly? They’ve absolutely smashed it. @thesaltroombrighton has been serving incredible seafood since 2015, but this feels like a whole new chapter. The new interiors are effortlessly glamorous, the atmosphere is relaxed yet vibrant, and the whole place has a fresh, fun energy that makes you want to stay all evening
🍸 We kicked things off with cocktails, including the Margarita Verde…spicy, refreshing and dangerously easy to drink. 🦐 The starters completely stole the show. The prawn toast was hands down the BEST I’ve ever had. Crispy, packed with flavour and one of those dishes you’ll think about long after you’ve left. The seared scallops were simply divine, the oysters (served two ways) were beautifully fresh, and the edamame guacamole, served on a rotating sharing board, was such a fun and unique touch
🥩 For mains we tucked into a perfectly cooked fillet steak with French fries topped with caviar (why not?) an incredible tuna steak, and a Greek salad finished with watermelon granita that was exactly what you want on a hot summer’s day. Every dish felt considered. It’s the perfect balance of classic favourites and creative plates that never try too hard
🍫 Dessert was a rich chocolate parfait, washed down with an espresso martini, and was the perfect ending
The food was outstanding, but what really makes The Salt Room special is the whole experience. Gorgeous interiors, beautiful sea views, chilled summer vibes and genuinely fantastic food. And here’s the thing... I’m not actually the biggest seafood eater, but the quality here is so good that I enjoyed every single mouthful. Whether you’re celebrating, looking for a date night spot, or just fancy treating yourself, this is one to add to your Brighton list
I was invited to try this one. As always, all opinions are my own.
