This very casual, simple cafe had very tasty food. If you do not want pizza, the menu is limited, but the soup and mussels we had was perfectly cooked and delicious.

On s’y est précipité par temps de pluie et on y a vraiment bien mangé. On y a fait notre première rencontre avec les huîtres de la ferme d’ostréiculture de Gruinart. Laiteuses, charnues et conséquentes, elles sont savoureuses et pas du tout salées. Ensuite nous avons poursuivi avec des moules savoureuses.

I was in touch with Yan for a few months before we visited the island because I know there are only so many places that can take groups of 18 people on Islay. From the start he couldn't have been more helpful. And on the day he was expecting us, we had two tables next to each other, and there was plenty of space and no rush at all. Amazingly, he had told us we didn't need to pre-order so we all took some time looking at the amazing seafood menu that is offered. I think most of us had different things but I can recommend the oysters, scallops and tuna steak very, very highly. I then had cranachan for dessert which I really didn't need but always find it very hard to resist. Throughout it all Yan was great. He has a wonderfully outgoing personality - he kept the children entertained while making sure that all the adults were well looked after with drinks and food. He dealt with our one allergy query swiftly and well and all in all made us feel very welcome. This is definitely a place I would recommend and one that I will return to when I next visit the island.

Booked a table here for our last night on Islay and it was the perfect end to a great week on this beautiful island. Excellent, friendly service and utterly amazing food. The Scallops, Beetroot & Goats Cheese and Mussels starters set us up for excellent dishes of Langoustines, Smoked Haddock Risotto and Tuna Steak (and a little side of Oysters), washed down with a very tasty Sauvignon Blanc. Delicious, fresh seafood from an amazing little restaurant. If you visit Islay and don't eat here you are missing a treat!! Booking recommended.

Yan’s SeaSalt Bistro continues to delight customers and locals with his delicious Sunday Roast Menu. On Sunday, January 17, 2021, we enjoyed our fresh & delightful starter: Loch Fyfe Smoked Salmon & Avocado with Cream Cheese Dill Lime Dressing. For the main course, one of us gladly took on Slow Braised Lamb Shoulder with All Trimmings while the other happily enjoyed Roast Confit Chicken Breast with Mash Potatoes & Peppercorn Sauce. For dessert, we savored (1) Warm Brioche Bread Butter Pudding with Chantilly Cream & Berry Compose and (2) Hot Chocolate Fudge Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream. The three-course Sunday Roast Menu is just £15 - Such fantastic fine-dining deal comes in fresh and generous portions every Sunday. On Sunday, January 24, 2021, Yan featured a few tasty offerings that celebrated Burns Night: a thicker version of Cock a Leekie Soup with Bread and Butter as one of the three starters and Traditional Haggis, Neeps & Tatties with an Islay Malt Whisky Jus as one of the three mains. For our dessert that night, we chose Yan’s Sticky Toffee Pudding with Toffee Sauce & Vanilla Ice Cream and Hot Chocolate Fudge Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream. We always left SeaSalt with happy bellies (thanks to Yan and his chef) and in cheerful disposition, especially after spending time with SeaSalt’s courteous, friendly staff and helpful: Jayne, Rebekka, and Dean. On Sunday and rest of the week, you can order from the regular menu as you wish - two of our favorite regular entrees are (1) Mixed Grill with Onion Rings and Chips and (2) Smoked Bacon & Leek Macaroni Cheese or have a coffee/tea break with Veronika’s Coffee Walnut Cake - another delicious delight! SeaSalt also has delicious and reasonably-priced takeaways. Many thanks to Yan and staff for their thoughtful hospitality and great service.

I was surprised at the choice available - almost too much I thought. Chalked on the board was squat lobster - crisp and plentiful. Followed by sea food linguine: prawns, scallops and more with just the right chilli hit. On the other side of the table a whole fish was devoured. We ate on different nights in the good Islay places, classier surrounds, but this was the best food, backed by a good bottle of Albarino and relaxed and helpful staff.

Booked a table for 4 last Saturday at 5.30pm for the Tuesday (last night). Arrived, checked in and were sat down - tables spaced apart and duly signed in - Covid compliant.Drinks order taken, food order taken, drinks arrived, food arrived....owner arrived !!Thrusting the booking diary in our faces he said we hadn't booked and despite repeated assurances that we had, we were accused that we'd taken advantage (of something, not sure what) and essentially we'd lied our way into the restaurant and lied about making a booking.We were told we'd have to: 1) eat quickly or 2) have the food as takeaway or 3) leave - this is whilst the food is sitting on plates cooling untouched in front of us and other customers are looking on with bewilderment.Booking errors happen so we'll forgive Sea Salt for this, but the approach of the owner, effectively accusing us of lying was jaw-dropping. Rather than explaining that perhaps there'd been some kind of mistake which could be sorted out he proceeded to start arguing repeatedly that we hadn't booked. For context, there weren't other customers queuing and/or waiting to be seated and we were a family group of 2 parents with 2 adult children; not exactly a boisterous group chancing their luck!We paid for our drinks and left.In the cold light of the following day, the experience was so bizarre that on reflection it's almost funny in a Fawlty Towers sort of way....ALMOST

I'm not a particularly picky food person, however my order was incorrect and the actual taste of the food can only be described as "chemically charged" the food had no connotations of Chinese flavour or presentation Soy sauce is not a flavour solution!

Since SeaSalt's dining is closed during the pandemic, the next best thing is its takeaway. Fish & chips are plentiful and to die for, especially with cider. Beef Lasagne & chips are rich delicious, too. A few weeks ago, we also tried the freshly prepared chicken chow mein, which went well with our homemade stir-fry veggies. Prices are quite reasonable, and Yan and SeaSalt kitchen staff continue to be hospitable, helpful, and cheerful during this surreal time of the world.

I ate from here 4 times. I tried the fish and chips...the pizza...the kebabs...the munchie box...the fettucine carbonara and the haggis. The only thing I would go back for would be the haggis. I'm on holiday visiting friends and I've been here a month so I've come on 4 separate occasions to get the food and it's always been underwhelming. Over priced for poor quality. I don't even think they make their own kebab meat, it's shipped in presliced. I stopped going and started cooking my own food. You could get a pizza with better quality from the co op down the road. Sorry if this is harsh but it's my own personal experience. There is no love in this food.

Everything was excellently prepared and tasted delicious. Prices were resonable and service was professional, although some members of staff can be less grumpy when addressing their customers. This can not be said for the asian waiters who were very friendly and service minded. We had a great night here both times.

We ordered pizza the next day, for take away. The third day on Islay we loved Sea Salt so much that we made reservations for 11 again for dinner. They did not let us down. Everything was wonderful. When we are able to return to Islay, Sea Salt will be on our menu.

When I write a review I do try and be constructive and always truthful. The Sea Salt definitely promises much, the exterior is nicely decorated and is inviting. The interior however is a bit of a let down and really is more of a cafe style rather than what I’d call a bistro e.g. little sachets of sauce on the table.

Yan and staff were very accommodating to two hungry travellers. Did takeaway on the first night in Port Ellen and then another meal later in the week. Although popular and full with reservations he squeezed us in for a delightful meal. Food was fresh and flavourful

We ate in Sea Salt three times during our trip to Islay and on all three occasions had excellent food and service.

Very disappointing. Over-priced food & unfriendly staff. Give it a miss & go over the road to the Islay hotel!

A quick stop in - happy service with a friendly face on a wet day. Excellent local food choices. Consideration given to a range of travellers on the day and their needs noted.

We recently visited for dinner in the restaurant and enjoyed a lovely meal including the special red mullet. Service was good and there was a nice atmosphere. We had a take away pizza the following day which was also really nice.

Had a take-away pizza whilst waiting for the ferry. It was quick, the dough was great and good choice of toppings. Would highly recommend.

My wife and I spent a wonderful holiday on Islay last week (we used to live there and love the place.) Three years ago we visited the Sea Salt for a meal and had a decent vegetarian choice. Last week the only choice was deep fried cheese and chips which neither of us fancied. Later in the week we dropped in for a coffee and a piece of cake. To our surprise they stated that they do not do just coffee. This was despite the fact that it was approximately 2-30 pm and the place was empty. Even more surprising that they have a large sign at the doorway advertising great coffee to be had inside.

My husband had the Hawaiian pizza and I had the nicoise salad. The pizza was great, nice crust and fresh toppings. The salad had a large portion of smoked salmon which was delicious. The atmosphere is comfortable and casual and it was nice to sit in the window. I would recommend a reservation, we were able to get a 7:30 when we called earlier in the day. When we walked by around 6:30 it was packed and were turning people away.

They cocked my order up, but the food I eventually eat was excellent. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. My partner enjoyed her baked hake dish. The first dish I was presented with was cold and not what I had ordered. But the two fish starter of scallop and black pudding and a dish of mussels with cream and chorizo with a side of chips were excellent. (Sadly no photos). Would recommend the three fish dishes that we eat.

Travelled to Port Ellen with Odin (Dog) so had to have takeaway but the fish and chips were excellent and the service good. Sitting on the beach with fish and chips and nice drink helped make it an excellent day out

Extensive menu, excellent tasty food not expensive, but not cheap either. A great location with good service and a very tasteful interior. The Take-Away was incredibly busy. We can highly recommend the Scallops & Black Pudding starter & the Fish & Chips - memorable! Thank you.

Our first visit we had a carry out as the place was too busy to take the 6 of us. We booked for the next night. Most of the food was very good however 1 of us still had plastic rapping round his chicken. The lady who appeared to be in charge offered a replacement which was not taken but the cost was taken off the bill. Wpould I go back, yes!

Very much enjoyed dinner at the Sea Salt in Port Ellen the other night. We started of with Bruschetta and Mussels then for a main, I had the Sea Bass special. All the food was fabulous. Make reservations, not much for dinning options in this little port town, but they are good anyway. Our server, Paula, was busy talking to the bartender, but she did ok when e got her attention. Would love to go back.

Idéalement situé à côté des quais d'où commencent les wildlife tours, pratique pour manger chaud après tout ce froid sur le bateau. Personnel +/- sympathique et efficace. Premier "fish & chips" que je goûte et franchement, super bon ! On sent que le poisson est frais et la friture n'est pas aussi lourde que celles que j'ai connues jusqu'ici. Frites bonnes, RAS. Sauce tartare se marie bien avec le plat. Chocolat chaud un peu petit mais correct. Tarifs un peu élevés, mais vu qu'est en zone touristique et en plus, ouvert en continu jusqu'à 21h (heure locale), c'est compréhensible !

I am giving you an excellent review based on previous visits but arrived Thursday 14th November at 11:15 and it was closed. Website says open at 10:00 and opening time on door says 10:30. Several people left disappointed during my 20min seat on bench. Off to Port Bannatyne for my brunch. Can you update your opening hours on door and social media platforms.

Ordered a guinness it was terrible tasted sour reported it. Pipes need cleaned The trainee Barmaid maggie wasnt interested charged me another pint when i asked for stella. You cant pay for food,and drinks all at once as she gets confused if you put 3 pints behind the bar. To much for her .Her attitude stinks when i says i will pay now. No go to the cash machine.. I wont be back i was a paying customer her attitude is shocking
