Salty's at the SEA

5 stars! This restaurant is famous for its clam chowder and boy, does it deliver! We ordered the clam chowder with Dungeon crab, on top and the blackened halibut. The halibut was paired with a rhubarb strawberry sauce, which sounds unusual but trust me, it works! Both dishes were absolutely delicious. Don't forget to also order the dessert. It's amazing too. Special shoutout to Mo, our server, who provided great recommendations and exceptional service. Highly recommend!"

Had the soup and salad. I'll be honest, I hate clam chowder. Until today I've never had clam chowder that wasn't cheap and gritty, lost my liking for the stuff. I was told by several people that you have to have the clam chowder at Salty's. It was SO much better than any I'd tried elsewhere, and this was just at the airport one! Thank you Salty's, for renewing my faith that good clam chowder exists in the world. Left satisfied.

It’s an airport so ambience is not really an option. Chowder is out of this world, definitely recommend! I ordered a chefs special honey lavender salad with king salmon. Very tasty but a bit pricey. Lovely staff, very attentive and on top of it. Thank you Nicole

The claim chowder is some of the best. Amazing sunset view of you are there at that time. The salmon BLT was very tasty. The lavender salad was great too. Joshua was a fantastic server. Very helpful and attentive.

Salty's at the SEA provided the perfect dining experience from start to finish, even for a solo diner. My server, Isabel, was an absolute delight—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly. She made my evening even more special. The food was truly exceptional. The seafood chowder was phenomenal, with a rich, creamy base packed with fresh seafood. I was especially impressed that they use non-GMO oyster crackers, a detail that shows their commitment to quality. The fish and chips were equally fantastic, featuring a perfectly crunchy breading and flaky fish inside. While the prices are on the higher side, it's completely understandable given the quality of the food and the current minimum wage exceeding $20/hour. It's clear they invest in both their ingredients and their staff. The huge windows offer a spectacular view, which was an added bonus as I watched the airplanes take off and land. It was a beautiful backdrop to a wonderful meal. I can't wait to come back!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Salty’s at Seattle Airport – A Hidden Gem! I had an absolutely amazing experience at Salty’s in the Seattle Airport—this spot is a must-visit if you’re passing through SEA! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and elevated, and the food? Next-level delicious. Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented—definitely not your average airport dining. But what truly made my visit unforgettable was Nikki. Her service was top tier—warm, attentive, and incredibly professional. She made me feel genuinely cared for, offering great recommendations and ensuring everything was perfect from start to finish. You can tell she takes pride in what she does. If you’re looking for a quality meal and five-star service during your layover or before your flight, don’t miss Salty’s—and ask for Nikki if you can. She’s a gem!

Great food with a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. This is exactly what you want while waiting for a flight at an airport. When you find a spot that offers good food it makes for a great day.I ordered the ahi Tuna Poke and a lavender honey salmon salad. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. The Ingredients were fresh, and the portion sizes were more than adequate. My server Sean was amazing. He was very personable, friendly and engaging. He definitely represented the establishment well and understood the importance of providing exceptional customer service. My ask is that management acknowledge him in some fashion for his work.
