It started to feel like fall this past weekend, so we figured the crowds would be sparse at Sea Salt. I know that’s not good for their business, but as a neighbor and a regular of the Best Seafood Restaurant in the Twin Cities, it meant that we wouldn’t have to wait in an hour long line to order and wait another 45 minutes for our fish tacos. We wandered over to the park, and sure enough, no line. We were in heaven. And then we heard that we still have a month before Sea Salt closes for the season. Could we be happier?
I ordered my usual, the Shrimp Po-Boy. Husband ordered the Marlin Tacos, and together we devoured an order of the Shrimp Cocktail. Again, they did not disappoint. The Po-Boy was loaded with shrimp and just enough hot sauce for me to notice. The shrimp were fresh and along with the cocktail sauce there was a large pile of horseradish. The taco’s, in husband’s words, were “pretty good.”. They looked great, full of fresh fish, cilantro and Sea Salt’s own sauce.
I always get a little blue at the end of summer, but just knowing that we have another four weeks of fresh fish and seafood will make the transition a little easier.
