What? I can’t believe I haven’t reviewed SS until now. It is «sow» good. This lil piggie squeals with joy every time I dine here. The other night we porked out on Happy Hour specials. Loved their daily special of Guac, Salsa and homemade chips. Also scarfed down every last nummy bite of the Fried Chicken and Biscuit. They offer a variety of drink specials, great tacos, deviled eggs etc. The vibe is hip happening-and you can’t believe you have such a treasure in the neighborhood. Always great service. Hog heaven, for sure!

The Salty Sow is in my neighborhood and I’ve always seen this place but never really had a desire to visit but for some reason I really wanted to try a something new. So it’s was Salty Sow time. We walked in and the place is jammed packed and loud. Not music loud but people loud. We got lucky and got one of the last open tables. Woo hoo. We were greeted by our server pretty quickly and got our water glasses and our own water bottle for refills. I ordered off the daily special menu. Got the Ribeye tacos and a side of Bacon Mac & Cheese. So the ribeye tacos had guacamole, pickled onions, cilantro and huge chunks of ribeye. These where huge tacos. It was pretty spicy for me but really good. Very filling and enjoyed it. Only problem it was dripping with ribeye oil but that’s ok. The tacos came with a side of beans with chunks of pork. I’m a big fan of beans and this was good. Those chunks of pork really made it so good. I had to get the bacon Mac & Cheese. It was crazy good. Sprinkled with bacon on top. That bacon really made the Mac & cheese. I’ll have no problem ordering this again. My wife ordered the PV salad. Baby kale, with avocado, candied almonds, chicken breast, dates, blue cheese with a creamy dressing. This was so good and huge. When my wife took a few bites she said I wouldn’t mind coming back to this place. She’s never said that. She really liked it and I tried it and it was so good. The service was really good. Our server was very good. Really informed on the menu. He kept on bringing new bottles of water when the bottles got low. He kept on checking on us. So service was really good. Overall, we had a really good meal but I took off one star off cause of the really oily tacos, but all the other food was really good. Great service. Fun and lively atmosphere. Everyone was having a really good time. So it was really good and we will most likely be back.

Basis for my starred ratings(which skews heavily to the food or drink): 1 star: Never again. 2 stars: Poor food, poor experience, extraordinary measures in order for me to come back. 3 stars: Average, nothing really special, nothing particularly bad. 4 stars: Very good, would definitely return. 5 stars: A favorite, one of the best. This outpost of the Texas restaurant was a little disappointing given our expectation. We were expecting something like the Pig & Pickle in Scottsdale, but though the interior is what I’d call, country-sleek, the feel of the place was more akin to a high-end Carraba’s(albeit with better food.) Had the duck fat fries, the boudin fritters, brussels sprout caesar, and split the hanger steak. And a couple beers, because it’s a gastropub. If I’m comparing this to other gastropubs or other smart casual restaurants, the food didn’t stand out all that much to us. The fries were fine, the boudin fritters a little less than fine, the salad was fine, and the steak was fine. Everything felt a little heavy-handed and a tad over-seasoned. We’re definitely giving this place a second shot but not so sure we’d travel there regularly for the food.

Haven’t seen your friend in a while? I know a great place to catch up. The Salty Sow. Close your eyes and point at the menu. That’s how you find something delicious at the Salty Sow. Unless you are notoriously particular, you can’t miss. Your greatest regret will be when you taste the food of someone else in your party and it’s not your own. However, your solace lies on your own plate! Service is consistently good, and servers are skilled at pacing the meal, which, from my experience, isn’t common among Valley restaurants. If you’re inclined to eat as much, I highly recommend the Chicken Liver Mousse. The Asiago-Crusted Halibut is a menu staple, and with good reason. Pair these with appropriate wines or Salty Sow’s signature cocktails, and a bad day gets good and a good day gets better. Despite the above, I can’t give five starts due to service when seated at the bar. It’s decent at best and slightly frustrating at worst. In fact, in one instance, my 41 year old, salt & pepper-haired better half had a bartender almost make an incident over carding him. In fairness, a superior(and the other bartender) quickly apologized on his behalf.

Well done, Salty Sow, well done. I would give you six stars if I could. You got everything right… Great layout, awesome bartenders, spotless interior, great beer selection, killer meats, and it smells like pig heaven. Not the heaven dead pigs go to but the heaven I would go to and eat pig meat for eternity. Duck fat fries, pork belly taco, double cheeseburger with bacon… bacon conjured by magical pig wizards I might add. Sheer swine sorcery. Now please open one up north!

My boyfriend and I love this restaurant. It has an inviting dimly lit dining room and relaxed bar. We usually stop in for a bite before heading out on the town. I’ve tried many of the items: duck fries, Brussel sprouts, the beef tips, the pork even the mousse, stuff made out of something I’d rather not know, was incredible. The specialty drinks are also well thought out and not the same old Manhattan or house margarita. There are options, using the good stuff! That’s what we love about this place! The food is satisfying the drinks are original the ambiance is energetic and mature. You can dress up or be casual you’ll fit in just fine:) I highly recommend this place. We’ve been there at least a dozen times and have never been disappointed. IMO the bar top is the best seat in the house.

Well the bartender can make good drinks. We were there during happy hour. Ordered or happy hour tacos and it said for sharing on the menu. It came to the table the appetizer which said for sharing on their menu and it was only one taco. Maybe if the waitress would’ve said G you told me one talk or we would’ve ordered two but it said it was for sharing.

We met some friends here for some food and drinks. It was a suggestion of mine being that the wife and I had a really good experience here the first time we stopped in. The food once again was amazing! More than pleased with our selections. Here is what we ordered: — Pork Belly — Duck Fat Fries — Honey Rosemary Dipped Fried Chicken(this is a must try) — Pork Belly Taco — Spit-Roasted Pork Taco — Cornmeal Fried Catfish Taco Only suggestion I have is for the Bar. Gotta rotate the beer selection a little more.

I met a friend here for an early Thursday night dinner. They have live music Thursdays — Saturdays which is a nice touch but if you are looking for a quiet place you might want to try Salty Sow on another night. Our server was attentive but not pushy. The menu includes some interesting options and opportunities to try something new: — Pork belly taco — A little messy with egg on top but very good. — Crispy Brussels Sprout leaves — I could eat a huge bowl of theses. They were amazing. — Rainbow Trout Almondine — We both had this and agreed it lacked flavor. The crispy capers were a nice addition but it needed something more. If I’m in the neighborhood I’d love to stop back and try some other menu items.

BESTHAPPYHOUREVER. Every day from 4 – 630 pm, $ 5 – 7 small plates, $ 2 off all cocktails, wine and beer! Normally I feel there’s only a couple good items on HH menus and we also have to order from the regular menu, but there were so many yummy looking items on the HH menu here that we wanted everything on it! Truffled Deviled Eggs– generous portion with four halves, yumm Chicken Liver Mousse– wonderfully creamy, comes with toasted bread Crispy Brussel Sprout Leaves — sooo good, light and crispy Honey Rosemary Dipped Fried Chicken — I personally didn’t like the sweetness of it, but the fiancée loved it. chicken was perfectly crispy and cooked. Catfish Taco — really well flavored, one of the best fish tacos I’ve had Fried Green Tomatos– fiancée was very happy since he’s southern. comes atop a great guac Wonderful service, great ambience with a nice dog-friendly outdoor patio.

I pigged out at the Salty Sow’s Sunday Brunch Buffet and I will do it again sometime! I don’t mean to boar you with details but this buffet wasn’t typical of most buffets. Most buffets are just slop. The food here was a much higher quality and was VERYGOOD and not dried up or old. Everything was fresh and replaced quickly. I squealed with delight when I tasted the crunchy, sticky, sweet and flavorful boneless fried chicken. There was so much food at the buffet nobody can eat everything. Oh Lardy… There was Porchetta, Buttered Rainbow Trout Almandine, Fried Green Tomatoes in Guacamole, Beets with Goat Cheese, Brussels Spouts Caesar Salad, Cheese Grits, Hot Skillet Egg Dish, Jumbo Asparagus, Poached Eggs, Pork Chile Verde, Prime Rib Hash, Pastries and MORE! They will even make you an omelet if you request one. The $ 5.00 build your own Bloody Mary bar isn’t too shabby either with lots of hot sauces to add a variety of tomato juices, fun toppers like bacon and cheese stuffed olives and more. They offer comfortable low top booths and mostly high top booths. They have a large dog friendly patio too. At the time of this review the Sunday Brunch Buffet cost $ 18.95@ and is served 10 – 2 on Sundays. It ain’t no slop and feel free to eat like a swine.

The Salty Sow is a farm-to-table American Gastropub concept that started in Austin(got to meet one of the founders another time I was here). They’ve got a really interesting menu! Lots of cool, fun stuff to try. This time, I got the chicken thighs. They were quite tasty, but the roasted potatoes they were served with were outstanding.(What? Yeah… I don’t know, but they were about the best roasted-small-potato dish I’ve ever had). Duck fries were a nice starter(with the poached eggs to dip into). Sadly, nobody ordered dessert this visit, because they’ve got some great desserts!

Love this place. Great customer service, fun patio(they can’t help that it overlooks the Wal-Mart parking lot, LOL). Food is delicious and unique — my kids, who are total foodies, also love their innovative menu! We went the first week this place opened and loved everything about it – there is a sea salt caramel custard-type dessert that is to DIE for… And their deviled eggs are among our faves! This place does NOT disappoint. If you don’t mind the Wal-Mart in the background(just turn a blind eye or sit inside if you do) — then try Salty Sow for sure. If you are a hardcore vegan or vegetarian, this is probably not the place for you, however, their salads and cocktails are also scrumptious so pretty much everyone should give it a whirl! Enjoy!

Things at Salty Sow you need to eat before you die: Fried Green Tomatoes(come with guac) Chorizo Stuffed Mushrooms Cheese Grits Crispy Brussels Sprouts I can’t even tell you what their entrees are like because I blackout from a food high on appetizers alone, but I’ve heard great things about their fried chicken. They have a great HH on Monday nights, awesome patio and live music though I forget which days. This is always a place I introduce to family or friends from out of town for good vibes, great food and an awesome Dirty Martini.

Deviled Eggs Deviled Eggs Deviled Eggs, literally one of the best appetizers I have ever had, something about them having truffle sauce in them along with being deviled and melting in your mouth just makes you want to order a bunch of them as your man meal. Their charcuterrie board is pretty good too, last time I had it they had some mustard cheese that was just amazing. As for the main menu, nothing is better than their slow cooked beef shoulder, their bone in filet is a close second but the pork just melts in your mouth. Also their double cheeseburger is delicious and would be a close third. Oh and it helps that they have a good wine list as well as some interesting drinks(Maple Glazed Old Fashion is one of my favs). And whenever I can I go there for happy hour since it is cheaper, I mean you can get fried chicken for $ 7.00 and their truffled deviled eggs for $ 5.

Sugar. Oil. Sugar. Oil. Sugar. Oil… I try hard to review places based on how well they do what they’re trying to do… and not just my own enjoyment. For example… in this case, if I was eating at a dive bar, the amount of oil soaking my burger bun, and amount of sugar mixed with my Brussels sprouts –while not pleasing to my pallete– would have been accepted. However, it isnt a dive bar… this place is going for the gastro-pub hip-American-new eatery… and if that’s the theme, I need a LOT more from the kitchen. Resorting to covering savory dishes in sugar, and smothering everything in oil is a culinary cop out… Staff was professional and décor was awesome. The idea is right… but the dishes are just missing.

This place is the real deal. I have been here so many times now. I happy to say I am always please to bring family and friends here. the service is perfect, they are helpful, kind and very thorough. For my mother’s birthday they were so very gracious and generous for her treat. Very impressive. The food is so tasty. Some of my personal favorites are the truffle eggs and the lamb burger. I can’t say there is anything I have eaten here that wasn’t completely delicious with generous portions.

Still a fan! Looking for a unique brunch option? This is the place! For under $ 20/person you’ll find an array of savory items like cauliflower wild rice, brussel sprout salad, ham, porchetta, fried chicken and waffles, fried green tomatoes, green chile stew… PLUS eggs/omelets cooked to order. The dessert options/breakfast sweets are a bit of a disappointment but there are $ 5 mimosas and bloody mary bar, so who needs dessert! ;) I would still rate this the best buffet brunch in the Valley!

This is an update, and I must say it was a great time here last night. My dad had been wanting to check this place out, and since I’ve been once and liked the food but thought it was crammed for my liking, we instead went on a week day at an earlier time and it was great. The happy hour was good, we got an order of the deviled eggs, Brussel sprouts, and the duck fat fries. I do agree that I don’t taste that much of a difference in the duck fat fries, but they are tasty. the Brussel sprouts are great as always and the deviled eggs were a nice balance. I don’t like anything that is over truffle-y if you know what I mean? Also, I had the elderflower liquor spiked white sangria, and if you like elderflower, you’ll like it! My dad was so-so about it but I enjoyed it(mostly because it makes me think about elderflower soda in the UK… Ahhhh. The memories) I was interested in more Brussel sprouts so I opted for the the sprout salad with chicken. My brother actually stole the show with his French dip sandwich, that thing was huge! My dad ordered the 12 oz prime rib and had no complaints. Service was great, and super fast We’ll be back!(I prefer weekdays for sure at this place)

Walking up to the cute lit up signs out front, hearing live music coming from the speakers, and into this beautiful open layout of a restaurant; I could tell that this was going to be a good date night. My husband and I sat at a cozy high-top booth in the bar area. We were greeted by our lovely waitress who walked us through a few of their fancy drinks and their specials for the night. We decided on the Smokey Sow Martini(Titos vodka, with bacon and cream cheese olives.) and The Petey(Eddy’s Grapefruit Vodka, Mint, Orang, Agave, and Soda water.) Both were nice and strong. I would say the Smokey Sow was mostly a regular Dirty Martini for the most part but The Petey was pretty Unique and tasty. We also started off by ordering the Cheese Curd’s with Jalapeño’s and Sriacha Aioli off of nightly special and they were perfection! Light and fluffy with the perfect kick from the deep fried Jalapeño’s. And with perfect timing our Entrees were delivered. After much thought we had finally decided to try the Rotisserie-Roasted Pork and the Asiago-Crusted Halibut. The Roasted Pork was tender on the inside and crispy on the outside, accompanied by a nice side of pinto beans, avocado and red onion salad, and a side of buttered tortillas. This meal was good but it was our least favorite of the 2. We fought over that last bites of the Asiago– Crusted Halibut. Halibut was seared to perfection with gold crusted outside and a fall apart inside, topped with this delicate, buttery, lemon sauce that we mopped up with every last bite. The Halibut came with a side of broccolini that was also perfectly seasoned and cooked. We could not have been more satisfied. But we decided to give the desert special for that night a try and boy was it good. Neither one of us had ever tried Butter Milk Pie before and we were not to sure what to expect. The crust was flakey and buttery with a sweet creamy kind of custard inside, topped with fresh barriers, whipped cream and what I think was home-made vanilla ice cream. It was the perfect way to end our meal. I was so in love with this place. It was a bit of a pricey night. But the food was perfection, the guy playing on his guitar and singing was amazing. I even got his card. Preston Phillip was his name. He played all kinds of songs from Sublime to Imagine Dragons, all with his own spin on them. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable, I loved the open layout, the rustic modern décor and furniture. I can say that I don’t mind spending the extra cash for a place, and a night out such as this one. I can’t wait for my next date night here. We might have to try the Happy Hour next time and see what that is all about. I’m sure they won’t disappoint.

The wife and I finally got a chance to try the Salty Sow. They open at 4pm so we arrived when they opened. Our waitress greeted us with a bottle of water for the table and let us know the happy hour specials that they have everyday at that time. She was very nice and we proceeded to order our food. We ordered: — Honey Rosemary Dipped Fried Chicken — Duck Fat Fries(with a soft egg that was cooked for 110 minutes in a water bath) — Hanger Steak(with mashed potatoes, chimichurri, and red wine sauce) The food was great! We didn’t use the bernaise sauce that came with the fries. Instead we opted to dip them in the soft egg yolk… yum. The honey rosemary chicken was OMG delicious. The hanger steak was also very good and the potatoes delicious. Overall our experience was a positive one and we will be back to try more dishes.

Salty Sow is a tough one to review, I’m afraid. While I was underwhelmed by the food, especially considering the prices, I was very pleased by the interior décor and by the service. Being a budget-minded guest(whether I like it or not), I visited Salty Sow on a Monday night with a friend. Salty Sow had an all-night Happy Hour that night, which is what drew us. Unfortunately, the HH list was pretty unimpressive, featuring options«for sharing» like the $ 5 tacos where you only get one small taco for the price. How does one share a single taco??? After deciding that we weren’t interested in spending $ 5 for a single small taco, we placed an order for the Duck Fat Fries to start with($ 5). They were tasty, and well presented. My friend ordered the Honey Rosemary Chicken off the HH list($ 7) and was very impressed with it, as was I. The chicken was perfectly cooked(so moist!), the breading for the chicken was really well done(crunchy!), the sauce was delicious, and the biscuit was outstanding. I ordered the double cheeseburger($ 15) and was(unfortunately) far less impressed. Took about three bites and left the rest behind. Nice big patties, nice presentation, «just eh» flavor. Based on the food, coupled with the high prices and small portion sizes, I’d give Salty Sow a pretty low rating. However, based on the exceptional level of service we received from our server, Shelby, and the beautiful interior, I have decided to raise my rating to a 3-star review. Would I come back? Likely not for food. I think I would visit again, though, if I wanted to grab a drink somewhere upscale and comfortable with beautiful interior. Between the real wood features and décor, creative lighting, appropriately subdued background music, and high-end service, I could see visiting Salty Sow again for a lighthearted first date(drinks only) or to catch up with an old friend. Thank you, Shelby, for treating my friend and I so well. You were great. And thank you, Salty Sow, for creating such a beautiful ambiance and mindful décor.

Happy hour on a Saturday was excellent. We enjoyed their discounted house wines and draft beers, $ 5/$ 7 small plates, and the charcuterie board of the day. Our server was very patient with us and didn’t rush us at all during our very long dining experience. She also had all sorts of recommendations to enhance our tastings. I highly recommend the fried chicken and the brussel sprouts small plates(OMG). Best way to approach this place is probably with friends so you can try(almost) everything on their small plates menu. This is not your typical«one appetizer and a dinner entrée per person» kind of place. Step outside of the box and give it a try!

Shout out to Salty Sow for an amazing experience. My colleagues and I met up for happy hour here and we left feeling satisfied with the amazing food and great service. Service– Amazing and attentive service! I wish I could remember the individuals name who provided service but he was very easy going, gave great recommendations and kept the refills going of both water and drinks. Food– All around amazing. All of the dishes were fantastic. Truffled Deviled Eggs– If you like deviled eggs make sure to get them… If you don’t like deviled eggs. Get them! You will love them. Duck Fat Fries– Duck Fat and Fries… Nothing else really needs to be said. Honey Rosemary Dipped Fried Chicken– Man ol man. This dish was phenomenal. The chicken is very well done and biscuit. perfect. French Dip-Roated Rare– If you enjoy the combo of prime rib, horseradish and au ju then you will love this meal. Perfect spice, and flavors. White Corn Cheese Grits– Great side dish. Big enough to share with quite a few. Fried Green Tomatoes– Solid sharing dish for those who want to be semi Healthy Drinks– All were great! Between the 3 of us we tried the Maple Glazed Old Fashion, Little Larry, Copper State Mule, Mr Shaw and the Petey. I would have to give the nod to the Mr. Shaw. Atmosphere– Lively, busy, fun and slightly loud when it picks up. Comfortable seating, great lighting, anything and everything you could ask for. This may become my new happy hour spot.

This was great. This restaurant is so pretty inside, and service is very, very good. Definitely stop in for happy hour. The small plates are reasonably priced, and it’s fun ordering several things and sharing with everyone. Love, love, LOVE the duck fat fries. They’re delicious, and the egg on top is like icing on the cake. Seriously, where have these fries been all my life? Truffled deviled eggs are very good. Crispy chicken thighs are fantastic. If you like fried chicken, get this. The thighs are moist, fried perfectly, and just fantastic. Crispy brussel sprout leaves are a nice side to accompany the chicken. Only thing I would skip are the eggplant fries. They’re tender, but they lack flavor. The breading needs some work. They’re a good portion size, but I was disappointed, especially since I love eggplant. For dinner, I had the fish special, and it was amazing. I want to say it was trout. Even if you aren’t huge on fish, it’s worth gambling to see how good Salty Sow can cook it up. This place is worth the drive if you don’t like in Scottsdale. Cannot wait to go back and eat half the menu.

I like Salty Sow. It has a lot going for it, but there are issues. The good? I love the atmosphere and the décor. I especially like it when live music is being played. A great vibe. Service is solid. No water glass will go unfilled in my experience. Reasonably priced happy hour apps… The bad? Servers aren’t particularly helpful with recommendations. Specials of the day are plopped on the table. The menu does have fun moments and is not totally dependent on pork, but liking pork helps. Descriptions tend to be more appealing than what is actually served. A happy hour app taco served this visit was among the grossest fluid filled messes I’ve ever experienced in a restaurant. A doble cheeseburger had mass quantities of beef, but not much in the way of flavor. And so it goes. If the food was served in a different environment you would think it was very pricey for what it was. Will I return? Yes, on a Thursday… when music is playing. Alcoholic consumption also enhances the experience. Perhaps the Unilocal average of four stars is right, but I can’t get that taco out of my mind. Oh yes. The duck fat fries. They are good, but in the end they’re just above average French fries.

This restaurant impressed me so much for dinner that I came for happy hour a week later. On our first visit, our server, Mason was great — extremely friendly and attentive! The restaurant was busy and had so much energy! My fubby and I ordered white sangrias and it was amazing! I highly recommend especially since drinking half the glass, I was already feeling the alcohol! I loved their Brussels sprouts and lamb burger! They were so delicious! We also ordered the duck fries — the lamb burger included fries so I regretted ordering the duck fries because we couldn’t even devour half of the fries! It was truly a waste. The duck fries were good, but I wouldn’t order them again. Even though they were«duck» fries, they were just fries to me with an egg on top — big whoop. The bill came close to $ 50 which isn’t cheap but I noticed they have happy hour so I knew I would be back! A week later, we couldn’t stop thinking about Salty Sow. Very little do we go to a new place and we like it enough to add to our restaurant list. Congrats Salty, you made it to our list! We decided to try their happy hour and only ordered happy hour items — it was a big mistake but at least the next time, I know better. We didn’t order the lamb burger because it wasn’t on the hh menu. Instead, we ordered the Brussels, carnitas taco, fried chicken, chorizo stuffed mushrooms, the eggplant fritters, the catfish taco, and I got a Sedona Sunset drink. My drink was way too strong that I only managed to get in a few sips. The tacos were $ 5 each — I mean one big taco for $ 5 and this is a happy hour price! They were ok but I wouldn’t order these again — not for that price. The chorizo stuffed mushrooms again were flavorful but I wasn’t a big fan. The fried chicken was good but wouldn’t come back just for their fried chicken. And the eggplant fritters was just that — fried eggplant. Our server, Kayla, wasn’t that attentive either. She took forever to check on us and give us our check and I don’t think the restaurant was more busy than the last time we were there. The check totaled $ 50. My lesson: come back and order the Brussels and lamb burger — and a white sangria and if I come during happy hour, stick with that order and the check will be a few dollars cheaper because of the Brussels and sangria!
