Sigh. I'd like to give Salute 5 stars for a number of reasons: 1) Membe - the owner. She really seized the American Dream. An immigrant from (I think) Nigeria, she started bussing tables and worked her way up to owning the place. She continuously gives back to the community, perhaps most famously by serving Thanksgiving meals to the needy - with full sit down service and dignity! And arranges for many support services for the homeless to gather in a "support fair" in the parking lot. She's active in a number of civic groups focused around enabling less fortunate people to help themselves. 2) The views are spectacular! 3) The service is impeccable 4) Its bar is a great place to meet other residents of Marina Bay (where I live) But, alas, the food just isn't good enough to warrant giving the restaurant 5 stars :frown: Don't get me wrong! The food is good and occasional dishes (I'm thinking particularly of the lamb shank) great, but not enough to bestow the coveted 5 stars.

Excellent food, attentive service, a beautiful bay view and warm ambiance! There’s also a lovely room with a fireplace. A wonderful restaurant to celebrate a special occasion or just celebrate life.

A lovely surprise! We were on our way home, hadn't eaten, and remembered a friend talking very favorably about Salute E Vita Ristorante which is owned and operated by a most remarkable woman, Menbere Aklilu. We didn't have the pleasure of meeting her that day but there is a table with her bio and information about her dedication to the community by the restaurants front door. Worth reading! It was very easy to find, lots of parking, and in a beautiful older, refurbished building. Service staff was terrific, the food absolutely top notch, and the view on the water beautiful. We will be dining there again and again!

What a beautiful and cozy place. Food was good and the location amazing. Our server was not that friendly and seemed a bit overwhelmed but we would come here again. Go for a walk afterwards to enjoy the scenery and water.
