I first ate at the Salt Cellar as a child with my parents.  I have a nice memory of having lobster.  It was fun to go to a restaurant underground, and at the time (in the 80's) it was considered a really fancy place to go.  \n\nSo that was the 80's and unfortunately, Salt Cellar is stuck in the 80's.  It still was kinda cool going down the stairs to the restaurant, but it felt like the air wasn't clean.  Seemed dank.  The bar looked nice, but the lighting in the restaurant were those weird orange ones.  Mood lighting?  Seemed depressing and old.  The pictures on the wall looked like were the same ones that were there in the 70's.  This place needs a make over!!!\n\nWe were seated and they took my fiance's drink order.  He was very clear about no water in his old fashioned.  It was served with water.  He sent it back, and it came back the same way.  Finally he just ordered straight bourbon. \n\nMy fianc\u00e9 had oysters and I had halibut ceviche. The oysters were gritty. The ceviche had a very sour taste and was loaded with red peppers. I think they used lemon instead of lime.  I couldn't finish it. Nasty!\n\nMain course I had the Salmon Oscar. The salmon was amazing, but it was ruined from being drowned in a very bad hollandaise. It tasted like glue. No lemon flavor. It was just bad!  I squeezed some lemon on it to try to fix it, but it was not working. Too much sauce and it was just awful!\n\nMy fianc\u00e9 ordered halibut cheeks that were pretty good, but the vegetables were so over cooked and drowned in butter. The baked potato was decent. \n\nI felt sick from the nasty hollandaise so we got the check and left. Disappointing!\n\nSalt Cellar is stuck in the past and in need of a makeover.  I was afraid of this, but went for nostalgic reasons.  Too bad. We won't be back!
