Almost naked men (only covering the privates), Waldo, clowns, trannies with REAL breast implants, a unicorn, tutus everywhere and EDC vibe all over the place! It was only upon leaving that we found out there was an event going on.. The actual bar is just a little further down Fremont Street. Pretty big space and can you say FREE parking! That's a big deal considering there's no more free parking anywhere downtown! Let's talk about the actual bar -- drinks were ok, got a Strawberry Fields (sour, strawberry, nothing really special type of drink), my friend got a Smoked Watermelon which was good! And the beers that the fellows ordered were surprisingly good even though I'm not really a beer person! They served food outside at the foodtrucks and they served rock solid pretzels for $1 each about the size of a Cuties orange at the bar (DONT GET IT)! Service also sucked! Bartenders had no system going on and they were everywhere. Took almost 20 mins each time trying to get someone's attention -- def turn off! It was a fun vibe and it was funny seeing everyone so festive for the event! Let's just say it wasn't my kind of vibe, lol!

A swanky, unconventionally shaped, contemporary style bar is the heart of the place with chairs and couches surrounding it. It is very dark (a little too dark in my opinion) with very dim lighting...I felt like most of the light came from the gigantic big screen tv's hanging above the bar) I actually like the look of the place but I feel like everything else is a contradiction. They had EXTREMELY loud hip hop music playing. Dance club loud, and this is very obviously not a dance club. (I don't think? Like I said Salt doesn't know what it is so how am I supposed to?) I was on a date and found it very difficult to have good conversation without constantly saying "WHAT?!" "SAY THAT AGAIN?!" ...the upside that I'm sure my date appreciated is I had to snuggle in close just so we could talk. The tv's were playing ESPN, highlights from one of the preseason NFL games. I love football but this just didn't make any sense to me at all. This place does not have a sports bar feel and the tv's seemed so out of place to me and I found them to be a negative distraction. When we sat down at the bar it was SOPPING wet. I asked the bartender for a napkin for my arm because I had set it on the bar for a second and he handed me a wet rag. Really? The drink selection is poor. I had a glass of Sauv Blanc that I disliked very much. My date was disappointed to find out they didn't have Guinness on tap. Their beer selection was nothing to write home about. The service was awful. The bartenders were too busy busting a move to the hip hop music to notice the needs of their customers. And did I mention there were only a handful of people in the bar at 11:30 on a friday night? So what is Salt? A hip hop night club? A swanky scottsdale lounge? A sportsbar? None of the above. Salt is just plain confused if you ask me.

Very nice selection of good quality dishes. As always, "healthy" can easily be undone by cheeses, mayo, and other yummy additions so be careful if your idea of "healthy" is low cal or low fat. The sammiches were fantastic, the dill potato salad - yummy!, and the tots were pretty good. The market itself has a nice selection of items that you don't usually find often in regular grocery stores (five+ types of quinoa! ;)). I'll definitely be back, whether for a specialty grocery item or for a great meal.
