During my first visit to Salt Hamilton, the Asian menu seemed appealing and I must say that both the menu and the interior decor lived up to expectations. We ordered miso broth soup, sushi, and Katsu curry with a Scottish haggis twist, accompanied by a side order of beer cheese fries. The unique combination of Japanese and Scottish street food was high quality and fresh. We look forward to returning soon.

I can not recommend this place enough! Me and my partner stumbled across this place as we’re currently staying in Hamilton and just wanted to go out to eat. A hidden gem! The food is some of the best food I’ve ever eaten at this sort of restaurant and all of the staff were so nice and lovely! The deco is absolutely gorgeous and as the place isn’t too big it’s not loud or overwhelming like other restaurants are. I’m vegetarian and my partner eats meat and there were so many options for the both of us! If you come to this place don’t skip on dessert too! We had white chocolate cheesecake and raspberry and white chocolate mochi and it was delicious! Unfortunately we’ve traveled from Yorkshire but if we’re ever around again we’ll definitely be back!

Another one on the list that I've wanted to visit for a long time having heard only good things about the place. One word needed to describe the place - exceptional. Staff are super friendly, tasteful decoration complimented with a soundtrack to suit. Food was delicious, so much choice and plenty of vegetarian options available. All dishes were well presented. Attention to detail, from staff that evidently have passion for what they serve. Cannot recommend this place enough. I will definitely be back soon.

The staff couldn't have tried harder to make our first visit any better. Steve and the whole team went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and looked after. Please pass on our thanks to everyone working today. The food was outstanding. Unable to pick a favourite dish as they were all solid 10s! Can't wait to return!

We visited Salt for my birthday at the weekend which was our second time visiting. Both visits have been amazing. The food is absolutely delicious, we normally go into Glasgow for our favourite Japanese dishes but will now prioritise Salt in Hamilton! The service is good, very friendly staff. The food comes out pretty quick & is delicious. If you’re a fan of sushi you must try the crispy rice nigiri with spicy tuna. We’ll definitely be returning.

Excellent food and reasonable prices for such quality. Great selection for all diets, whether you want meat, vegetarian, vegan or pescatarian dishes. Or just want to enjoy any of the many excellent dishes offered up. We had a mix of everything and nobody had to compromise on their choices. Delicious whiskey sour and good quality beers. Essential to book in advance as it is rightly very popular. Probably my favourite restaurant in the UK.

First time visiting Salt Hamilton and it was lovely. Great food and immaculate restaurant. Staff were very attentive and friendly. The decor is lovely. Would definitely recommend. They had a lunch menu which I opted for. I got my pork belly ramen, chicken gyoza and a coke all for 15. Was the perfect portion size for me! Parking, there’s a car park called Auchingramont road car park, around the corner which is 80p for an hour, 1.20 for 2 hours
