The American Academy of Hospitality Sciences has awarded Salty’s Seafood Grills with the International Star Diamond Award.

As evidence of their service quality, Salty's included a letter from a recent guest in a press release.

"On a recent trip to Seattle, my friend, my daughter and I stopped at Salty's for dinner," according to the letter. "I'd been there before and had been delighted with the food and friendly service. However, when we checked the menu, we saw that there was very little that my daughter (a vegetarian) would be able to eat. We talked to the hostess and she assured us that my daughter's needs would be accommodated. She then took us to the table and spoke to the server. The server assured us as well, that they would be able to make something special for her. A few moments later, the Operations Manager came to our table to discuss with my daughter the type of meal she had in mind and how best to accommodate her needs. Everyone was so kind and helpful and they treated us like visiting dignitaries."

The award honors restaurants, five star hotels, resorts, airlines, cruise ships and luxury products that demonstrate a commitment to excellence in luxury services, according to the press release.

Salty’s Seafood Grills is proud to be among the elite establishments that have been awarded, according to the press release.
