About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
Opening our doors in 1993, Salmon Dave’s has proudly endured as one of Greater Cleveland’s favorite local haunts. With an informal approach to upscale dining, our cozy neighborhood spot has gained a legendary reputation. After a recent head-to-toe renovation, Rocky River’s favorite restaurant is better than ever. The timeless character of the historic building lives on with distressed brick walls, crown moldings, and its signature mahogany bar. The updated feel is an eclectic balance of traditional and contemporary design elements, creating the perfect backdrop for Salmon Dave’s spirited bar scene and relaxed dinner vibe. Veteran chef Mario Brown and his talented culinary team offer new menu selections alongside fan-favorites, maintaining our promise of providing the freshest “Guaranteed Seafood.”

    Food and service was very good as usual. Music in bar was very loud, hard time conversing at our table in dining area. I almost left.

    Our table in our desired location was ready for us when we arrived. The service was attentive but not intrusive. The food (4 different entrees) was wonderful.
