About Restaurante Salitre
Lunch or dinner at Salitre is the kind of meal that pulls Cangas locals back within the week. The kitchen leans hard into the grill but keeps one foot in the sea, so a table here can move from empanadas and cockles to the arroz de choco — a squid-ink rice that reviewers single out by name — without missing a beat. The cheesecake closes things out and gets more mentions than anything else on the menu. Views come with the room, and the atmosphere reads as genuinely warm rather than performed. Alba and the rest of the floor staff are the reason people feel at home: they steer you toward dishes you wouldn't have ordered and do it with a smile that doesn't feel like a script.
In the last 90 days, Restaurante Salitre has drawn 23 substantial written reviews (50+ characters of genuine feedback) — recent momentum that is one of the signals behind its place on the hot list.
