"As the name implies, there is a multitude of salmon dishes available at Salmon River. There is also enough choices for those who prefer something else but you're missing something if you don't have one of their namesake dishes.
Service is excellent, the food and the wine list are very good and you're not rushed or bothered so you can dine leisurely or have a business lunch without interruption."

"The salmon was wonderful - maybe the best.
The prix fixe seemed like a value until you saw
that the cheese cake was about 1/8" thick -
about two bites.
The sounds from the bar grew louder and louder
until it was intolerable by the end. It appeared
to be one loud group but we recalled that
the same thing happened on our previous
visit.
