    Came here on a week night with my husband and we had the best experience!!! We first started off our night with the spicy yellowtail crispy rice Absolutely delicious and they were sweet and savory in every bite. We also started with the caviar pizza. I loved that it came with egg and onion toppings on the side. For our main entrees we split the mushroom and truffle rigatoni and the surf and turf entree! The Rigatoni was PACKED with truffle flavor in every bite which was to die for. The surf and turf entree is completely customizable which is fantastic. We had it with their chimichurri sauce which is loaded with flavor. The cocktails are absolutely fantastic, my favorite being the coral crush. I could get myself in trouble with that one!!! Service was fantastic and I loved the vibes of the place. Perfect spot for a date night out in Cherry Creek or to celebrate any special occasion! I can't wait to go back!

    Food was exceptional. Service was not quite as good as I would expect for a high end restaurant.

    Visited Salt Water Social on a Sunday night & first impression was upscale, blue, underwater vibes! The way they tied the room together with their menu was the perfect touch. The food was amazing we had the surf & turf & the steak melted in my mouth it was one of the best steaks I’ve had in a while! Service was great we were checked on by multiple employees not just our server. They had a party going on at one of the tables under a huge blue chandler, it was such a vibe the aesthetic of the place is photo worthy especially for bdays! They played a mix of hip hop & old-school music, right up my ally sang the dinner away. Definitely a place I’ll be back to visit soon!

    Salt Water Social in Cherry Creek exceeded all of our expectations! Our waiter was incredibly thorough, fun, and attentive, making the entire experience feel special. The drinks were creative and delicious, adding an extra layer of excitement to the meal. The food was absolutely incredible—the truffle pasta was out of this world, and we couldn’t get enough of the tuna appetizer. Both dishes were perfectly prepared and full of flavor. This spot has such a fun and vibrant atmosphere, perfect for celebrating with friends or enjoying a romantic date night. I highly recommend Salt Water Social and can’t wait to return!

    Our group of 4 enjoyed a fun night out with incredible dishes. I’m a huge dirty martini girl and they have the best dirty martini with blue cheese stuffed olives and I would definitely recommend getting a caviar bump with it! We loved all the dishes but our favorites were the caviar pizza and the New York strip with truffle butter. The spicy yellowtail crisp rice is perfect to get for the table but really the food was so good you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Cannot wait to go back for a special occasion or happy hour.

    Had a beautiful double date to celebrate the engagement of my husbands and my friends. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted, promptly seated, our table was candlelit and set elegantly. The fresh sour dough to start was delightful, our first round of drinks came out quickly and were delicious, I had the sirens kiss and the lollipop garnish was delightful. Quicker than it was set down we finished eating up the caviar pizza topped with fresh chives it was so good. The third appetizer I shared was the spicy yellow tail crispy rice and I can easily say next time I go back I will order a whole one to myself. For one of the mains I was thoroughly enjoyed each bite of the Mermaid Surf and Turf, the shrimp was perfect. This is my second time devouring the Mushroom and Truffle Rigatoni, what can I say I just love a perfect pairing which is exactly what our server Chan did when he brought over our red wine. Nothing can top ending the evening to a live ambient dj, with espresso martinis and the Cheesecake Cone dessert. I know this wont be the final time I will be booking a reservation. So far for a babes night out, and for a celebration dinner Saltwater Social does not disappoint they understand the assignment.

    I came in the other night to give salt water social a try and it was delicious. It had a great ambiance and we had Katie as a waitress and she was so attentive and nice. We tried the caviar pizza and spicy crispy tuna along with crab fried rice and few other items everything was amazing. Will definitely be returning.

    Saltwater Social is a nice addition to the restaurant choices in Cherry Creek. The service and food were excellent. The vibe feels juxtaposed between hip/cool/sports bar (all the tvs)/loud AND fine dining menu. The environment might even feel a little sterile, dare I say cheap. It’s missing the intimate warmth that usually accompanies a menu like theirs. Our particular table was directly under a vent so our candle wouldn’t stay lit and no fewer than 6 times someone bumped into my chair where I was sitting scooted up to my table. We even moved our table over a few inches to try to get out of the path of people walking behind me. Menu highlights: Sourdough bread is delicious; yellowtail appetizer (we were expecting slices, but it was actually like a pate and was fabulous); Salmon Wellington is a work of art. If we return we’d just sit at the bar, that looked like the fun spot.
