Salt & Silver am Meer

A colleague from Hamburg recommended that I eat here without fail. The Fish Fingers Royal for €24.50 were the most expensive fries, comparable to McDonald's, with five fish fingers I've ever ordered. The "royal" was just the price; a complete rip-off! As for the staff, I'm giving them five stars and only tipped based on that. For lunch with a glass of white wine spritzer and a tip, I paid €35—definitely too much. The ambiance is more like a snack bar, which wouldn't bother me if the prices weren't so steep and the menu promised gourmet quality. Conclusion: I won't be returning to this restaurant, and every cent is worth it for the amazing view and attentive service. It seemed like a few other people had a similar experience that evening, and the ratio of potatoes to fish seems to often outweigh the fish. Very disappointing.

Very nice restaurant, friendly service and excellent food.

Great – booked quickly through Open Table – very friendly welcome. Great food and a fantastic view!

We already knew one of the cookbooks and were keen to try the restaurant. We thought the food was really good! My favorite was the roasted feta cheese – combined with kumquat, red pepper cream, and yellow beetroot chutney, unusual and delicious! But the rest of the dishes were also really good. The steak was also perfectly grilled. The service was also very friendly and the atmosphere was lovely 😊

Helpful and carrying staff. The food was great, served in a special copper plate with a lid. Location marvelous with a view to the North Sea.

Beautiful ambiance. Wonderful sea view. Great food. Very friendly service. Highly recommended 👍🏻

Nice place, great view on the terrace, very high prices

A dream wedding. Our expectations were exceeded. And the chef went the extra mile. A cool atmosphere with a stunning view. Every course was explained beforehand. Pictures say more than 1,000 words. All in all, full marks. Thank you so much for letting us be a part of it. See you soon, Olli & Sabine Hensel.

The staff is friendly and our tables are served quickly. We had two meals, one very good, the other good (the vegetables were still too firm). The view is very nice.

Torn between two options Staff super friendly, attentive, and quick Convenient menu selection Sensational view (even from the toilet 🤣🤣) Food quality decent Price high for tourists / Michelin guide: I don't understand the latter Parking is a rip-off: if you want to eat in the evening, you pay €8/€13 for parking: a parking voucher would be desirable.

Ambiguous. On the one hand: You get upset about the prices if you don't check online beforehand. Otherwise, you stay away or remain silent. So we deliberately "swallowed" €52 for a 450g steak (including bone). The quality wasn't outstanding either. On the other hand: The Salt & Silver Spritz and the Salt & Zero Spritz were excellent as aperitifs. So was the salmon fillet and the Mille Feuille for dessert. And you can't complain about €6.50 for a liter of sparkling water and €2.90 for an espresso. The service was very attentive and helpful despite being fully booked. Regarding the (unique) ambiance, I refer you to the other reviews to avoid repetition.

Food was very good and staff friendly but paying with card is a tip to choose it which is a bit wrong

Really the worst thing I've eaten for that price in a long time. We had steak for 80 euros and three of us wanted to eat it - two children and me. The portion consisted of 30 percent bones. The meat was nothing special and there wasn't much of it (which wasn't a bad thing as it didn't taste good anyway). For that price you expect an explosion of flavor....the salmon with leek and mashed potatoes for 33 euros was also completely tasteless. At least the fries were tasty. But in the end, with tip, 280 euros without alcohol for 3 adults, including 2 women and 3 children, and then such a strange meal was very disappointing and even with the best will in the world you can't understand these reviews.....I mean, I also go to McDonald's on the highway and I'm not complaining because I expect and get McDonald's food there. And here I was expecting the highest level of cooking, but it could hardly have been done much worse....so extremely disappointed.

A stilt house right on the endless sandy beach. Excellent cuisine, a wonderful experience.

We wanted a bite to eat here in the evening. Despite what we considered to be a rather steep pricing policy, we found the portions to be very small. Unfortunately, we were all disappointed with the food overall. The ambiance, of course, thrives on its magnificent view and the location itself, but everything inside is a bit dated.

The prices are high. The staff is super friendly. They accommodate special requests. The food is good. The ambiance and location are priceless.

Disappointing! We remember the previous restaurant, "Seekiste." Fantastic! But it's nowhere near as good as its predecessor. Neither in terms of quality nor in the portion sizes. The price-performance ratio is inadequate!

Average experience and nothing special! We reserved upfront, but were offered any random free table. Entrees were nothing special, mains/ fish was fresh and cooked on point prepared. However, overall it was too salty in my opinion, both Cataplana and sea bass.

Amazing view, great service. Food was very good but not as good as the food in the Hamburg location.

Very good restaurant with delicious food and drinks.

The first visit was really good, but this time, unfortunately, things weren't quite as good. Little things were constantly forgotten, and the table wasn't clean – it's no fun getting your clothes dirty. Some dishes were really tasty, while others were noticeably weaker. Unfortunately, the overall value for money wasn't good enough. The view is nice, but it couldn't save the overall impression this time.

Dogs are allowed during the day, but not in the evening... so silly! Sorry, I don't understand the beach concept. We were sent away in the evening, even though we were there with our dog at lunch... (The incident happened a while ago, but I just got upset about it again for a reason.)

The location is great! We received a very friendly welcome. The first waitress at our table was unfortunately a bit grumpy, but the second waitress was great! The cake was good. There are too many dogs there for our taste, which was unfortunately noticeable in the cleanliness – dog hair everywhere, both on the seats and on the table.

Really nice staff. The ceviche and the red wine sauce with the chicken were a dream. And then there was the view of the sunset by the sea. A perfect meal with a delicious espresso martini.

The food was tasty but nothing exceptional; unfortunately, the value for money was absolutely not there. A very nice location on the beach, but the restrooms were very dirty. This should definitely not be the case for a meal that costs €250 for two people.

Great location right on the south beach of Sankt Peter Ording! We were there in the evening and had a fantastic sunset 🤩 The food was excellent and the service was friendly and fun! There were small dishes for the grandchildren. We'll be back 😊👍

Ideal, with paid parking right on the beach. Very nice view, sheltered from the wind.

Very tasty food, very polite staff, nice ambience and a great location on the beach

Mega mega unjustifiably expensive, with a very nice view.

The food was manageable in terms of quantity. I would have left hungry without an appetizer. Some of it was overseasoned for my taste. The staff was very friendly. All guests are on first-name terms, whether you like it or not. Great ambiance, although it was quite windy at times in the outdoor area. Limited selection on the evening menu.

Nice place, good service. Delicious. However, I paid over 80 euros for a fish, which I felt was a rip-off.

I definitely recommend this restaurant. I had a kind of stew with muscles and catch of the day served in a bit hot tomato and pepper Sufo and potatos. Really delicious! Service was very frendly. The best food / price ratio we had in this area so far! A must have on your to do list

The prices are a bit steep, but I knew that. The fries were a joke, even for kids. Over 8 euros for something like that? Really? The competition can do much better! But other than that, the food was really delicious. The view is amazing! The glass walls outside protect against the wind. Unfortunately, dogs are only welcome until late afternoon. The servers were routinely friendly. There are a lot of stairs, so it's not wheelchair accessible. If you come by car, it's even more expensive!

Top-notch dining right on the North Sea beach! Super-friendly young people clearly enjoy their jobs. The food is top-notch. We'd love to come back. The Hrdlika family from Uhsmannsdorf, Saxony. See you again!

My husband was extremely happy with the steak, even though he would have ordered a smaller amount (if it had been possible) (not in retrospect, but in advance). I wasn't really full, so I would have had to order an appetizer. Everything is expensive, though. The view is great, but unfortunately, the many puddles also cause mosquitoes. Nice logo, nice water bottles. Very friendly staff. Card payments accepted.

No dogs allowed in the evenings No parking anywhere, I came especially dressed well with my small (clean) dog, but no chance Really a shame, I would have been looking forward to the food and wine

Delicious food with a great view!

Great atmosphere and very good food. The menu is very limited, but the selection is truly delicious. Prices are high, but for a good dinner, it's definitely worth a visit. Reservations are essential; it's easy to book through OpenTable. Service is very attentive and courteous. Wine and Jever Pilsner on tap are very good. You can also eat outside when the weather is nice.

It was actually fully booked on Sunday evening, but even though I was alone, I still got a table on the terrace with a sea view. Service was perfect and fast. And the food hardly needs any words – simply perfect! The price and quality are spot on. Whenever I'm in St. Peter Ording, I eat there – even with large groups. The owners put their heart and soul into their work! Keep it up!

Great food! Friendly service. I'd gladly go back.

The atmosphere is great, the staff very friendly. The price-performance ratio and quality are abysmal. We had four pieces of cake, which were supposed to be apple and plum for €6.50 each, more pastry than anything else, and not even an eighth of an apple or plum on the slices. Two lattes, one of which was just below lukewarm and even then barely touched the coffee, an Aparol (not good at all), and two small cold drinks. All together, €60. I understand that you have to pay for the atmosphere, but this was absolutely terrible... any cookie or coffee at McDonald's is far better...

Great view overlooking the sea. The food is really delicious. Unfortunately, my steak wasn't medium as ordered, but English. Upon request, they recooked it, but unfortunately, the fries got cold in the meantime.

I was there with my family. It was a little expensive, but luckily I didn't have to pay. A great view, friendly and reliable staff, and the cappuccino was delicious. I also really liked the milk foam art. I'd love to come back. xx

A great place to eat and drink everything very tasty 🤤

For me, two starters and one main course weren't enough... I had to have a second one, it was just too delicious! The two of us spontaneously came; the staff was super friendly, and the ambiance was lovely. Reserve your outdoor seating online! We'll be back, thanks for the great evening!

The drinks are good. However, it takes forever to get anything, and if you dare to ask if your order was forgotten, you'll be treated like shit. Not recommended!!!

Best spot in SPO! Super friendly service, incredibly delicious food, and one of the best espresso martinis I've ever had. Plus, that stunning view... Simply perfect! A diverse crowd and a super relaxed atmosphere. If you're looking for innovative cuisine and a breath of fresh air ;-), you shouldn't miss this place.

The ambiance and location are top-notch, and the service is also perfectly fine. However, the prices are really steep. If they're going to be so high, at least the quality and quantity should be right. €20 should be enough to fill you up, but unfortunately, that's difficult.

We only had a latte macchiatto here - the service was friendly, the view of the sea is beautiful, but paying €5.50 for a lukewarm latte plus glasses only 2/3 full is really steep.

Unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. The service was friendly, but the kitchen is closed from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. – something that wasn't clear beforehand. Dogs are only allowed until 5 p.m., and a few hours before our 7 p.m. reservation, we suddenly received a message that our dog wasn't allowed. We just wanted a drink, but despite waiting over ten minutes, we weren't able to order anything – while the table next to us had already been told that we had to leave with our dog at 5 p.m. sharp. The overall situation was simply unpleasant. For us: 1 out of 5 stars. What a shame.

We've been to Salt & Silver in SPO several times this year. The service team is always super friendly and excellent. Nice people with relaxed service… the food is consistently excellent and always delicious. Great starters, good main courses; we love the Cataplana – a delight. The ambiance on the beach in Sankt Peter Ording is wonderful with its panoramic view of the sea and beach. The restaurant is one of the wooden houses built on stilts, with the charming charm of a beach hut, with all the positive attributes. We absolutely love the place. Dogs are allowed until 5:00 p.m.

We sat there for a cappuccino and later some cake. It tasted excellent. It was incredibly beautiful to watch the tide come in from there.

Here was every just awesome! Food, Service and Location! It's not cheap that's for sure but it's definitely a place to go if you like good quality food and service!

The staff is incredibly great. Coffee is a bit expensive, but it has oat milk. Great view.

The view of the sea is uniquely beautiful. Unfortunately, the service was unprofessional at times. This spoils the lovely ambiance. Perhaps we just had a bad day.

Our visit to Salt & Silver was another great experience for us. The food is wonderfully seasoned and presented. The staff is always attentive, competent, and relaxed and modern.

So far, only coffee and cake: but ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. There hasn't been an opportunity to eat yet, hence the three stars. But we were greeted and served very warmly. The location is unbeatable, no words 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I recommend listening to the story of Salt&Silver via various interviews/podcasts. It's been an incredible amount of effort and trouble to winterize the restaurant. After a walk on the mudflats, it's definitely worth stopping by and enjoying some delicious baked cake... Or other dishes...😉🤩

The food itself is good; you can't complain about the quality (although it is sparse in places). But it doesn't match the prices at all. In our opinion, it's completely overpriced. A child's portion of fries costs €7.50, chicken nuggets an extra €9... and we got a whopping three (with two small children). A carafe of filtered tap water cost a mere €6.50. The staff were friendly, but our first drink order was completely overlooked; it didn't arrive until well after we'd already had our food. Our second drink order only came partially. We canceled the missing portion because we wanted to leave. There are plenty of other restaurants in SPO with much better value for money. We certainly won't be coming back.

The staff here were great - very warm and welcoming, and accommodating! Our meals were incredibly tasty! And the views from the restaurant is breathtaking.

07/19/25 We actually wanted to have dinner together. The menu didn't appeal to us. I thought the menu used to be much more varied, two or three years ago, and, to be honest, cheaper. However, I didn't think it was good service that it took about 40 minutes for a pilsner and a coke. Therefore, only two points for service.

Not recommended! I long for the days of the "Seekiste" (Sea Chest). There, there was something delicious for everyone at normal prices. And the selection was huge! With almost the same expectations, we stormed into the "Salt & Silver" and were quite unpleasantly surprised. The menu is very small and the prices are significantly inflated. I'm happy to spend a little more money for good food. But these prices are out of this world!!!

Very tasty and perfectly prepared. The main course was excellent. The bread in the starter was a bit dry… but the main course really made up for it 🤩. The fish and meat were excellent and generously sized. Service was 3-stripe-friendly 👍

Great location right on the beach. Very friendly staff. Food and drinks are regional and delicious. A definite recommendation for a visit, whether just for a drink or a meal.

Nice ambiance. But that's it! The price-performance ratio leaves much to be desired. The coffee was cold and half empty... Far too expensive for that. This was my last visit to this establishment.

The stilt houses in Sankt Peter-Ording are incredibly relaxing, so this location is absolutely unbeatable. We haven't eaten this well in a long time; all three courses were handcrafted and of excellent quality. All the dishes tasted truly amazing! That's why I'm giving it a full 5 stars. I'm deducting one point for the ambiance, as the tables weren't clean and the seat cushions were stained and had burn holes. Even though this is a beach restaurant, the ambiance could reflect the sophisticated menu a bit. A glass with a candle would certainly add to the atmosphere of the location. I'm deducting two points for the service. We made a reservation for my 50th birthday via OpenTable. Here, you can state the reason for your visit. My husband did this and also wrote in the notes field that we were celebrating a birthday. This question creates expectations for the guest: a nicely set table or perhaps even an aperitif on the house. None of these things happened. Coming from a family of restaurateurs, I value good service with good communication skills. The two young waitresses here still have room to improve their customer interactions. A smile and a slightly less bored attitude would have been more pleasant for the guests. We certainly would have ordered more drinks if the service had been more attentive. This is, of course, just my personal perception of how welcome I felt as a guest; it may be different on other days. Overall, Salt & Silver by the Sea is an absolute recommendation if you want to enjoy a truly good meal. We'll be back!

Conditionally. The location is sensational, the food is more show than substance and simply overpriced. More suitable for a sundowner drink...

Always GOOD! Thank you so much! ❤️ See you soon.

Great food Top service It's possible to park on the beach, a great experience :-), but there's a fee, but it's a one-time fee.

The food was okay, but a bit bland and nothing special for the rather high price. The cleanliness of the restrooms left a lot to be desired.

The location is great, but the food has unfortunately deteriorated. We had a fresh, grilled halibut. The fish was no longer of the quality we were used to. It's a shame. The value for money has become negative.

Awesome, beyond words! Upscale dining, super delicious! Great atmosphere, fantastic view of the water, right in the middle of it all!

The fish was expensive but recommended. The grilled sea bass with pesto was good. The appetizer and dessert were also good.

Very cool. Top service, cool atmosphere 😍😍😍

A lovely ambiance with great seating; we sat on a lounge bench with a direct view of the beach and sea. The rhubarb spritzer was delicious, as was the homemade soft serve ice cream. It wasn't as sweet as other soft serve ice creams.

An ideal spot right on the beach. Since we didn't eat, I can't comment on the dishes. However, there was an interesting daily and evening menu. The staff was very friendly and attentive, something some in the restaurant industry could take a leaf out of their book.

I'm only giving it one star because the very tasty food was overpriced and the portions were too small. I think paying €40 for a main course plus a glass of beer is unreasonable. It was also very noisy inside, making conversation difficult.

The food was of very good quality and fresh, but quite overpriced. The atmosphere was very nice, as it was in the days of the Seekiste (Sea Chest). The selection of dishes was rather limited. The service staff was friendly and pleasant, but not very attentive. I wouldn't go there again.

Disappointment. We ordered turbot for three people, but unfortunately, we only got a small bowl of potatoes for three. The next table served the same portion for one. We couldn't reorder, and there was no apology.

The food is delicious but completely overpriced. A steak that costs €59 and isn't served hot isn't appropriate. You have to understand that the price is mainly for the amazing view.

The food was ok, the prices were way too high and the service was unfortunately very bad so I didn't find a recommendable place to eat there again

What's going on there is a complete rip-off! The prices on the menu are incorrect; there are two menus and different prices! The food is completely overpriced and not justified!

The Friesenmerquez was super delicious

There were eight of us eating there. Only I wasn't satisfied.

Very friendly and attentive service. The ambiance is unique and the food is excellent. It's also perfect for families with small children.

What an evening! The service was incredibly friendly and attentive – we felt welcome from the very first moment. The value for money is absolutely top-notch: great quality, superbly delicious food, and truly excellent drinks. We were particularly impressed by the unique location right by the sea – simply the perfect place to relax and unwind. We'll definitely be back!

Certainly the best among the local stilt-dwelling restaurants – with a slightly urban charm and a much-needed focus on zeitgeist and trends – an enrichment for SPO.

I only discovered it last year, but I've even been there twice this year! Whether it was sea bass, oysters, or steak...everything was simply an experience! I was also lucky enough to enjoy the sunset in this extraordinary location with fantastic weather! The view of Böhler Beach with horses in the background and a kitesurfer rounded off the wonderful evening and made it perfect! Great and very friendly service without being fancy!

Wow! 🤩 Relaxed, top quality, and great service. It's really fun to go out to eat again. Thank you🫶🏼

Only the soft serve wasn't that good, but otherwise everything we ate and drank was top-notch. The prices are absolutely reasonable for the location and the quality.

Super friendly staff. Fast service. Delicious cakes and tea. Highly recommended.

An incredibly beautiful atmosphere. Great service, and a fantastic location. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to my expectations. A great steak, no question. Overall, though, the food doesn't live up to the very high price. Even for my partner, the portion wasn't big enough. Dessert, at €10, is overpriced. But I still have fond memories! A revised menu, and I'd gladly come back.

Always world-class! Top service, top quality, and top location!

Friendly and attentive staff. However...€16 for two beers is quite a statement!

Good ambience, food unfortunately a bit too expensive

Of course, a cool location and good service (even if it's always confusing when a total of 4-5 people rotate through your table). BUT: not recommended for vegetarians at all. The more or less only vegetarian main course consists of vegetable sticks (including rock-hard celeriac) briefly thrown on the grill. Everything is oversalted and served on rather boring puree. How do some restaurants always get the idea that people who eat vegan/vegetarian only eat vegetables? What about protein in the form of legumes, tofu, etc.? The world is vast for that! It's a real shame that such an expensive restaurant makes no effort – especially since it's already well known in the village that the vegetarian option is useless. But what are people supposed to do who want to go out to eat with friends who just like fish? So please offer something better!

One of the best restaurants we have visited.

What more could you want?! A wonderful evening in a fantastic atmosphere, with super-friendly service and super-delicious food (I'll do what you read on many menus today: oysters, ceviche, feta cheese, North Sea sole, mille feuille, and yogurt ice cream—the amazing taste is best experienced for yourself anyway!!!)

Very good location, great view, friendly service. The food was just very expensive. What a shame.

Wonderful. We had a lovely time and high-quality food. Thank you very much.

Great view and very friendly service, but the food leaves a lot of room for improvement. So the value for money isn't good. What a shame!
