SeaSalt emerges in reviews as a lively Old Port seafood spot with a focus on fresh, tasty dishes like oysters, paella, seafood towers, lobster rolls, ceviche and shrimp tacos, plus solid drinks and a pleasant terrace. The atmosphere and views by the water are highlighted, along with a vibrant, welcoming vibe that many describe as perfect for a summer visit. Service is repeatedly praised for attentiveness and friendliness, with staff able to handle large groups and dietary needs, though a few visits note slower pacing and occasional inconsistency in timing. A few criticisms appear, including reports of pricey options, portions that feel small for the price, and a negative mention of pests on the patio, but overall the food quality and atmosphere remain strong favorites. Most reviewers say they would return to explore more items on the menu and enjoy the terrace again.
Such a pleasure to visit this restaurant. In the heart of old port with a scenic Terrasse & even better food. Seems like a revamped menu & boy is it good, altogether happy I came back to see what the new menu was all about. Definitely recommend if you're near old Montreal. It was a great experience. We even got a visit from the chef Rob.
One of my favourite restaurants in all old port! I really like that they update the menú each year, the quality never disappoints & the price is really good for the quality, also the service is really good, they answer all the questions with great attitude & trying to be as helpful as they can.
Amazing night at Seasalt! We were in Montreal just for a night & decided to go for a drink. We sat down at the nice bar & enjoyed a beautiful glass of red wine. The bartender was super friendly, professional & warm. & our waitress super kind. We loved our drink there & would go back with pleasure!
The food, service, & atmosphere at SeaSalt is great! Exceptionally friendly & inviting staff & delicious food! I've been going here for 3 years, & will continue. Hats off to Enrik!

Très bon service. Rapide malgré la grosse clientèle mais on avait été avertis. Notre serveur était à l'écoute & sympathique. Cocktail bon, bouffe respectable mais chers pour ce que c'est. L'ambiance était inattendue
A real gem of a restaurant in Montreal's Old Port. Great vibes, a beautiful terrasse, top tier food, & excellent service, even at the busiest of times. Food-wise, the seafood roll is absolute fire, the fish&chips deliver a lovely non-traditional twist, & everything else I've had has been super solid, & reasonably priced considering the location. Shout outs to Manager Enrik & Bartender Olivier, both true captains of industry. 10/10 would recommend.

Cocktail creations were out of this world. As far as seafood goes, especially in the old port, pricing was reasonable but the quality was immaculate. The house cocktail creations were also very well mixed & presented, hard to say which one was best between cocktails & the food. Also what is the best terrace in old port. Easy to want to come back to.
Our group ate at Seasalt on May 5th & were blown away by how great the food was. We tried the oysters, tartare, Caesar salad, fries, ceviche, sea bass, brownie, key lime pie & salted caramel doughnuts, all of which were absolutely delicious. The service we got from Gilles was also outstanding. Would highly recommend to anyone!
I highly recommend this place. It's nice, cozy & the food is great. If you want a drink, just ask Olivier & he'll do wonders ;) Everyone is nice & I'll sure be back this summer to enjoy the terrace!!
