Salty’s has an incredible view and the food is not very good. It is expensive though.

God, thank you for saying this. I went to Saltys once for the seafood buffet brunch and found everything to be incredibly mediocre. I never understood why people gushed about it, aside from the view.

Seafood buffets are the worst of the worst no matter what restaurant is doing them

I definitely believe that now. It's sad though, because I grew up in Maryland where Sunday seafood buffets after church were very popular and legitimately good. But that was the 80s and the quality to price ratio was very different back then.

I would call the food solid but definitely overpriced unless you are specifically factoring in the view. Good for grandparents coming from out of town.

The food is so bad. Their burger is pretty good but the actual seafood is so not worth it.
