Salt & Ko was amazing! Their presentation was exquisite and the food divine. You could tell the ingredients were fresh and everything was perfectly cooked. They had tremendous variety of delicious dishes to meet the range of dietary restrictions. All that said, my favorite was the chicken and waffle to go containers they provided at the end. The entire staff was incredible — so kind and efficient throughout the night but my hero is the person who gave me an extra to go waffle box. (:

Thanks so much for helping to ensure our friends had the wedding of their dreams and making this one of the best I’ve ever been to!

I had such a great time at Salt+Ko! The atmosphere was really nice — modern but still cozy — and the vibe was perfect for relaxing and enjoying good food. The service was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and you can tell they put thought into the presentation. Overall, it was a really enjoyable experience and I’d definitely go back again.

Everything was delicious and amazing, couldn’t have asked for anything more spectacular

I love this restaurant, and whenever I have guests from out of town, I know I can guarantee them a good time. The food is impressive and diverse and there’s something for everyone. Ryan (the owner) has clearly put his heart in developing an experience, not just a place to eat. I look forward to each visit, and every time I’m treated with care like I’m a brand new customer. Looking forward to how he takes this brand to new heights!

We chose Salt + Ko for our wedding because we wanted something interactive, and the chef-attended stations were a huge hit. Our guests loved being able to customize their plates, and everything stayed fresh and beautifully presented all night. The service team, especially Sharda and Ryan, made the entire experience feel organized and stress-free. The bar staff was attentive and quick, and no one waited long for a drink. We’re still getting compliments weeks later

Ryan was the best! He was super helpful with planning and worked with us to specialize the menu and cater to our needs. Plus, the foot was killer.

Ryan and his team were amazing!! I couldn’t have asked for a better crew to take care of me and mine on our wedding day!!!! Thank you for making it the best day of my life, the food was incredible as was the hospitality. Having a wedding during a pandemic was definitely stressful but Ryan made sure everything was taken care of and my day was stress free!

Just stopped in after work for a beer and burger. The service was good and the food came out hot and fast.

My catering cost $80 per person (without drinks) and, despite detailed planning and emphatic reassurances during the sales process, I spent a large part of my wedding day embarrassed and apologizing to guests. Due to my large guest list (150 people) we agreed on standing stations and discussed (with diagrams) that there would be 3 separate, double sided buffets to ensure everyone would be served quickly. Instead, ignoring the plans outlined in our contract and the directions of my day of coordinator, the 3 tables were stacked end to end and served from one side - the line took 90 minutes to get through. Maybe that would have been fine if Ryan’s team hadn’t show up 2 hours later than expected, or if they hadn’t started serving food 45 minutes late. Instead, my last guest in line didn’t eat until 9:30. The food was cold (obviously) and far below the quality of what we were served at our tasting. Despite multiple detailed conversations in advance about allergies, NONE of the alternatives discussed were available the day of and staff just shrugged when asked.

My wife and I used Salt and Ko to caterer our food for our wedding on October 5th, 2024 in Detroit. We had 187 guests and the total bill was north of $19,000. The quality of food delivered the day of our wedding was atrocious. Most of our guests, including my wife, had steak that was raw. See the attached photo. Many guests didn't bother to eat or finish their steak. The chicken dishes were rubbery. And the salmon, which I had, was dry and not seasoned. The vegetables each dish had you could tell were frozen and not fresh. The mashed potatoes were clearly from a box. We paid for bread and butter and there was none.

Salt and Ko told us they prided themselves on fresh, locally sourced ingredients but this was clearly not the case. For our tasting, the food was delicious. This is what we were expecting moving forward with Salt and Ko but that was clearly not the case when the wedding day arrived. Many guests were served their food cold even though we paid for a hot box. It turned out that a hot box wasn't used, but instead a plate heater was. The portions of food was also disproportionate. The guests that got their plates last had barely any steak while the guests who got served first had plenty of steak.

The whole day of experience was horrible and I do not want anyone to go through what we went through. We have reached out to Ryan and the team at Salt and Ko roughly 5-6 times over email since our wedding and we have not once gotten a response to at least acknowledge that steps were taken to help their bottom line on our behalf. They are extremely unprofessional and pulled the rug from underneath us.

In good faith, I can not recommend this vendor to anyone who is looking to use them for their wedding. I do not want anyone going through what we went through. With the amount of money we spent, including a non-negotiable 25% service fee on top of the cost of the food, etc., we expected much much more and we got left with barely anything.
