Located within University of Miami's RSMAS campus (next to Miami Seaquarium) the SALT team welcomes you for lunch, a casual drink and bar bites, or a beautiful waterfront space to host your next event. SALT and The Wetlab are proud to host a diverse mix of RSMAS students & staff, scientist and staff from NOAA (across the street), trainers from Seaquarium (next door), thirsty mountain bikers (Virginia Key MTB Trails are right across the street) and local beer enthusiasts!We'd love to cater your next event here!
Services
Founded in 1996 as a food cart on one of downtown Miami's sidewalk, it is now a thriving catering business and busier than ever. Beginning of 2014 Aaron took on the extra adventure of running his own restaurant/bar. His endless energy and ambition combined with a friendly staff has turned this dream into success.
SALT Waterfront Restaurant is located inside University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science (RSMAS). The inside dining area can hold 205 people and the outside veranda overlooking the Biscayne Bay can hold another 105 guests (total sq.ft is 3048). Located within the restaurant is the bar known as The Wetlab.
Traditionally run by student bartenders, The Wetlab was voted Miami's Best Kept Secret (2010) by the Miami New Times - but the secret is out! Our bar is open Wednesday through Friday from 5pm-close. Our kitchen serves a mouthwatering bar menu from 5-8pm. We love beer as much as you do. That's why we always have 17 local craft beers on tap! Ask your bartender for today's specials.

This is actually on the University of Miami campus, The occasion was a baby shower. The venue is very basic but the views are stunning! The catering (done by SALT) was excellent. Wish I could figure out how they made their chicken salad.

I have nothing but great things to say about Aaron Friedman and Salt. I held a Celebration of Life here last weekend and it was all I thought it could be and more. He glass windows were the perfect view of Biscayne Bay. I chose Salt because we did not have to worry about wind,rain, chill, or heat for our guests, yet we had the ambience of the water. It is so clean, and Aaron even included white linen table cloths to the floor
We had finger foods buffet style . Honey comb cheese display , Calamari, grouper bites, brisket, southwester chicken,etc. and had around 225 people. Everyone raved about

Haven’t been here in a couple of years but I always loved it. Really solid beer selection and a couple of good things to eat on the menu, plus a beautiful view and breeze, right on the water.

We were looking to have a beer and sandwich with a waterfront view. Cant really rate the place because SALT is the bar which was closed so we did not stay. It's only open for happy hours. The cafeteria was serving food which looked very good for lunch. If you want a view, sandwich, and a brew for lunch... try Whiskey Joe's down the street.

Mindblowing food quality! I loved the lobster here, but the service could use a little work. I'll definitely be back again for the lobster, but I certainly hope they work on the customer service. Thanks again!

The best spot and waterviews in Key Biscayne! It's truly fun for all ages, families, and UM students! The food menu isn't huge but the several items we had were scrumptious. The local and craft beer selection is a true crowd pleaser!
