Salt Bar Pizza Grill in Maldon

The food was only surpassed by the service we received! Little Lexie was so amazing at her job that we wanted to steal her to work in our own business. All the staff were fantastic but she was an absolute star.

Great Team. Delicious food. Must try.

Fantastic time! Kat was a lovely host! Food was very tasty. Two empty plates. Would definitely recommend the Diavola pizza.

Excellent food, great service and a niceish environment. The tables for two are too small to share food and it can be a bit noisy.

Lexie was brilliant and made our night x

Beautiful restaurant ! Delicious authentic italian food !

Wonderful service as always. Food is amazing can’t wait to come back for another meal

The evening was nice, pretty quiet, mid week night. No waiting for a table, Food good, lovely friendley staff... however because it was so quiet the staff were a little too attentive... we were probably asked about 3 times how our food was in the space of 10 minutes by 3 different members of staff.

Lex was wonderful - very attentive and great at opening bottles of wine, sommelier attentiveness;)

Giovanni is always a pleasure Excellent service and food is always amazing My favourite restaurant in Maldon ⭐️

Lexi and Lily were brilliant!! Food was amazing will be back

Lovely atmosphere and the service was great especially our lovely waitress Lexi

Celebrated a friends birthday, excellent food, great service, a special mention to Lexi and Lily who are a credit to Salt

Lex was fantastic, food was great and atmosphere great!

Wonderful food with fabulous service - special shout out to Lex and Evie

this place is absolutely gorgeous, i had lexie as my server and she was absolutely amazing i recommend this place if you want a nice night out to eat!

Somehow my booking got lost but they managed to find us an space in a busy mother's Day. From there, everything was excellent. Great food and service. My linguine al cartoccio was really good. Definitely I will come back.

Really nice pizza, really nice dessert. Lovely meal

Staff were lovely, food tasty, only downside is that we were sitting at the table closest to the door which I'm sure is lovely for the fresh air in summer but not so welcome on a winters night.

Great service and delicious food!! It's also beautiful inside and very well looked after.

PLEASE NOTE DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU HAVE A TODDLER!!! When arriving we asked for a high-chair, they bought over what I can only describe what looked like a potty that strapped onto an adult chair with one strap. Half way through the meal our 1 and half year fell backwards and hit his head. THESE seats are the worst thing I’ve seen and should not be provided. Just buy high chairs. What’s even more annoying about this is we when we went to the shop across the road after and they had high chairs for sale for only £40. To top it off, we were offered no compensation on the bill.. just acted like it didn’t happen. Also no changing satiation to change the baby :). Please do not use these seats you go here !! JUST TO ADD ON TO THE MOST ridiculous and insulting response below. Clearly this has happened on more than one occasion then as none of the people were drinking at our 11;30am booking. Our child was also at the centre of all our attention, being passed around the table and was only sat down in his high chair briefly whilst he ate his meal.

Nice food, nice people, nice service. Why would you not. Back soon

Lily Eva & Lex were THE best servers thank you ❤️

Great vibe, very friendly and accommodating as we didn't book. Food was excellent and we walked away thinking we had great value for what we had. Will come again next time we are in the market for some SALT.

Walk in Table for 6 on a Thursday brunch. Went for the "worker" menu @14.95 2 x courses (£19.95 x 3 courses) All meals were very nice(baked mushroom with chopped veg & mozzarella, fried calamari & whitebait and soup Mains 5x tagliatelle bolongnese 1 x meatballs with mash potato We also opted for 3 additional desserts Creme brulee(OK) & chocolate profiteroles (nice) Service was very good Service charge auto added

Came in with 4 friends a little tipsy after spending most of the afternoon in Datum Tap room drinking great beers. We were greated with a smile and quickly showed to a table and a round of beers ordered before we even had to ask. Food menu looked amazing and extensive. We ordered two of the meat platters and two pizzas. Steak was cooked to perfection and pizzas delicious. Would definitely come back with wife next time. Service was quick and very friendly.

Lexi & Lily very lovely & friendly!

Absolutely love this place. Vibes all around

Great service from Lexi and Lily, made us laugh and very comfortable.

Lovely dinner at Salt, with great atmosphere too

Lovely food, brilliant service and lovely atmosphere, definitely recommend for a romantic dinner, or dinner with friends.

Food was bangin, good service from Lex

Best goats cheese salad I've ever had x

Food was an absolute nightmare calamari seemed raw pizza was soggy and had no flavour tasted like it had come out of the backwater river chips were oily and tasted like fish and cost me the price of my front door.

Italian food is my favorite food. Here they make authentic pizza like the ones made in Italy 😁

Amazing, second time here. Staff are always friendly and food is unreal

Great service, steak and pizza were very tasty.

Lovely food, quick service, extremely friendly staff! Would highly recommend!

Evie our waitress was lovely, wine was fantastic, food was scrumptious. Chips weren’t the best.

Expensive for what is essentially pasta and pizza. Nice looking place but noisy. Won't rush back

Came for Valentine’s. We had an amazing meal and wouldn’t have changed a thing. Fantastic service, great atmosphere and incredible food. Would thoroughly recommend.

Just came here for a staff party. The chefs were amazing. Answered questions about food. baldo, gabriel and kristjan went above and beyond. The food was incredible. For the number of people that attended, they made no slip ups. Jen gave amazing service behind the bar, got orders perfectly correct and was quick to serve. The waiter and waitress’s were just as amazing. Very good night, very good service, amazing how the staff attended such a large table whilst still maintaining all over tables. Would recommend highly. Special mention to Jen and Alionka for such an amazing service. Thank you so much

Booked a table for 8:30 pm Arrived on time then to be greeted by a look at his watch as if to say this time of night. Was asked to sit at bar whilst waiting for a table Bar man tried his best to ignore us. Eventually sat down Not the best service no mention of dessert or coffee Unfortunately won’t be returning.

Me and my partner visited today, food was excellent, our server, Alexa, was great. Service and food was quick and delicious.

Salt is a fantastic restaurant, the pizzas are amazing and the staff are always attentive, especially Giovanni.

Thank you Alexa and team for the great service.

Amazing food staff are incredible love this place Kristian has a super xx

Lovely restaurant with great food 😊

Very expensive for very average food. A few slip ups with service, but ultimately style over content.

Always a fabulous time at Salt. The staff are so lovely and go above and beyond. The portions are very big and worth the price

Fantastic evening - thank you x

Booked last minute. Glad we did as the meal was great. Very reasonable too. The lamb cutlets (unbelievable) Serving staff were fantastic. Thank you Mitch and Amy. Will be back in the new year.

Food was exceptionally good and the severs are good. The organisation is appalling, starters getting served with mains and mains missing meaning others having to wait..

Great night, everything was spot on. The service, food and the atmosphere. Thanks

Very good choice and excellent food and service

Wonderful service. Amy was a delight and so cheerful.

I came here for my 23rd birthday and it was so lovely! Love the restaurant and the food. Even better was the service by Amy! Thank you

Giovanni is the top man xx absolutely the top man xx no one can top this amazing g man ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic food staff and atmosphere would highly recommend 5⭐️⭐️

First visit. Party of 4 adults. Saturday night. Great atmosphere and really good food. Service was a bit of a let down. Mains came up having not cleared the starter, then waitress took mains away when wife was still eating. Deserts were ordered but mine arrived about 5 minutes later than the others. As I say great atmosphere, good food, service wasn’t great.

Lovely meal with friends great service ..food and friendly staff thank you

Had a very nice evening meal, bottle of wine and cocktails here. Staff very nice. Great presentation and nice atmosphere. I had risotto and he had steak, both delicious.

Amy our waitress was awesome. So was the food! Will definitely be back 😁

The first thing that hits you when you enter the restaurant is the cacophony of noise. The venue is all hard surfaces, so all sound is amplified. We visited on a Saturday night, and there were a couple of large, noisy parties in, including birthdays, which involved the obligatory Stevie Wonder track being played twice whilst we were there, but so loudly that I had to hold my hands over my ears. The music remained at a volume so high that conversation was impossible. To be fair, when I asked for this to be turned down, it was, but it gradually crept back up until by the time we left, we could no longer converse without shouting again. As for the service, we watched as our drinks sat on the bar for 15 minutes before being delivered, by which time all the ice had melted. The two mushroom starters arrived cold and half cooked, and the mussels came without a bowl for the shell and no finger bowl. The mains were adequate, but arrived with no condiments and there were none on the table. At no point were we offered a drinks refill, and by the end we couldn't wait to leave. The only highlight of an otherwise miserable experience was our lovely waitress Amy, who listened patiently and politely to our complaints, explaining that you were short staffed and offering a liquore on the house as an apology. Give Amy a pay rise!

Delicious lunch. Highly recommend.

Very good meals and friendly staff

Great service and even better food. Thank you so much

Very elegant place to enjoy and relax. Delicious food with outstanding service. Thank you

Lovely restaurant, great service

Giovanni looked after us very well!! He made sure my wineglass was full at all times. Very knowledgable about the menu and brilliant at describing the specials. Great experience, beautifully cooked pasta and wonderfully flavoured bruschetta ❤️ will definitely be coming back.

I was looking forward to my a special celebration. But sorry to say it was not. We chose the cold meze starter for 2 when it arrived it did not look that appetising we were not even half way through when we were told our mains were ready. We said but still eating starter and was told that it would get cold if we didn't eat now. So we put the starter to one side. When the main arrived the lamb chops were so dry they were hard to eat. The swordfish my partner ordered was dry and he could only part eat. We felt constantly rushed and the food very disappointing.

Very nice place! Popped in for a late night drink. Friendly staff, beautiful interior design, venue looked great, so a future visit quite possible!

Great food and service, the lamb was amazing

Nestled in the charming town of Maldon, SALT Bar Pizza Grill offers an authentic Italian dining experience that transports your taste buds straight to the Mediterranean. Overall, SALT Bar Pizza Grill is a must-visit for anyone in Maldon looking for a taste of Italy. Whether you’re in the mood for a hearty pizza or a delicate pasta dish, you won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic food, knowledgable and friendly staff - Daisy is a star! ⭐️

We recently had a large family meal with around 20 guests from all over the world. Their team was absolutely fantastic throughout the whole afternoon we were there. The drinks were very nice and the food was perfect. I personally had the crusted lamb but between us we probably had everything on the menu with no complaints. Giovanni made sure we had everything we needed and also obliged my mother with a dance at the end to some Italian music. Our waitress was Millie and she was fantastic from the very start. She was so polite and has the greatest smile. It wasn't until we spoke to her that we found out it was her first ever shift. Thank you again, we will be returning soon.

A really good Italian restaurant that undersells itself. Great proper pizza and seafood.

We had a very impromptu visit to salt bar pizza grill today as a table of 5. firstly, the staff were very accommodating (especially to our 90 year old grandmother who wanted something that wasn't on the menu) I can't thank the chefs enough for this. we had a lot of questions, which again, staff were diligent and answered everything. the service was outstanding, and giovani is a lovely host. the food was exquisite, the steak was amazing, and my mouth is still watering with how beautiful the Italian tiramisu was. I literally can't wait to come back, even if it is just for dessert.

Lovely restaurant, beautifully decorated and friendly attentive staff. Waited a little bit for first drinks order but food was brought out quite quickly and no complaints for any dishes that were ordered! Personally had the lamb but would probably opt for pizza if visited again as that seems to be their signature dish!

Fantastic delicious food exceptional service

Great service, great atmosphere, great food. Thank you

Lovely staff. Real family feel. Extremely stylish interior . Amazing prawns and pasta. Will definitely come again.

We popped in on the spur of the moment and were very pleased with our dinners. Will definitely go there again.

Food was great. Credit to the chefs! Staff.... I get better customer service from McDonald's. Little man with a massive attitude.

Dined on Saturday at 5:30pm. We were sat in a corner right beside 3 families with the tables so close together we may as well have all been on one. The restaurant was not busy so I can only think that the reason we were all sat directly next to one another by the window, is to insinuate the restaurant is busy to try and get more business in. The waitresses had to squeeze past me to get to the next table without saying excuse me (this is a clear sign that you sat us all too close together) carrying next doors plates above my head. Drinks did not come until our food had arrived either so quite poor. The food was average, although no pizza cutter was provided and a blunt butter knife wasn’t cutting through. There was no service from any of the waitresses, appreciate they were all very young and one was clearly on their first shift, but because of this I would not have tipped. I do not believe adding service charge on to a bill without permission from the customer is right; tipping is a bonus for great service which unfortunately we did not have any of this evening. Quite disappointed as a whole and wouldn’t return or recommend. A very vanilla evening and nothing to shout home about.

Giovanni the best bar man and manager. Very down to earth and welcoming

Thank you very much for the lovely food and the lovely waitress lily she was amazing and giovanni was polite and I will definitely becoming again very happy 😊

Amazing food, amazing service. We’ve been at this restaurant several times and every time the service and food is amazing. Thank you for making my birthday special

Fist time visiting. Food was lovely. Service was shocking. Rudest man I’ve ever encountered in a restaurant. After reading some more reviews clearly it wasn’t a one off. Also wasn’t just once at dinner it was at several different moments. Definitely shouldn’t be working front of house! Shame as has put me off returning even though the food was nice.

Third time here, after a couple of mediocre visits previously. This time was a much better experience. Great service from all staff, especially Amy. Food arrived very quickly and was delicious. Pizza, pasta and risotto were all excellent plus 2 mixed salads and a bottle of house wine. Total £90 including tip. I’d definitely recommend on the basis of this meal.

Visited Salt with a friend, we were served by Millie who was very attentive. The food came promptly, and was very tasty. Thank you for a lovely experience!

This was our first time visiting, we are very impressed. Beautiful food and amazing service by Millie. We will definitely be back soon.

Milly was a fantastic waitress and made sure everything was fantastic

Had a lovely evening at Salt in Maldon, modern and very clean place, the owner was present and very attentive and polite, the staff was very friendly and the food very delicious, overall a great experience and a very enjoyable evening, highly recommended

We both had sword fish last night, with a delicious vegetable accompaniment. Served by a very nice young lady, Moira ? who went to Nottm uni. Overall a great experience. Helen n John

Lovely food and great service from Amy! Highly recommended!

Fantastic place, great food, very welcoming even with 3 kids in tow.

Excellent food, good service, a good atmosphere and very friendly staff
