This is my third time coming here. I absolutely love the atmosphere and the food is good. I am really glad to see somewhere that offers so many gluten free options. All the plants and surrounding decorations are so pretty. I do have one complaint though that really ruins the whole experience for me and the reason our family probably won’t go back. Every single time I have come to this cafe I have experienced the man who cooks things (I think this is the owner?) is quite rude and hasn’t been friendly. My daughter commented the same thing as well. Today was a special day for my daughter and I and we are both gluten free so we chose this cafe to take our little family to for breakfast. We were met with irritation that we had 6 people in our party. He rolled his eyes and grunted like it was a huge inconvenience. We tried coming as soon as they opened hoping to not cause tension because I know it’s small. Already feeling unwelcomed, I tried to find a table and was snapped at by him and told to go to the back. Even my husband was surprised at the rudeness and irritation from this man. This is the third time we have been met with a less than friendly attitude from him. Kind of put a downer on the whole breakfast and special day. When we got home even my son said something about the guys rudeness. Such a bummer because this cafe would be one of our favorites but we won’t be back :(

Excellent service and food. We were there with a party of 8. They were able to seat us promptly. Most everyone ordered something different. Everyone enjoyed their food. It well prepared and delicious. I have a Gluten allergy. They have some GF menu items and made note of that for the kitchen.

Our server was extremely helpful with finding me the perfect meal after my recent diagnosis of celiac disease. Usually omelets are OK but your menu states that pancake batter is added to yours. The veggie omelet does not and it was delicious!

My wife and i have recently started touring the restaurants of Aiken and last night our journey took us for the first time to Salty Tomatoes on Laurens St. We were not disappointed! We sat at the bar and admired the fact the owner took pride in preserving and highlighting the old brick building walls and structure that Aiken is famous for. Simple but warm and welcoming. We were promptly greeted with a big smile by Halsey(?) the bartender. My wife was looking for a light, refreshing cocktail. She took Halsey's recommendation and was delighted with her choice. I had a cider. We decided (before entering the premises) that we would have an app and salad and then continue on to anther restaurant on our list. We decided on the Green Tomatoes and a Roasted Beet/Butternut salad. The presentation on both dishes was excellent. The tomatoes were fresh and the fry was crisp. The remoulade was delicious and had just the right heat to offset the saltiness of the tomato seasoning. The salad was a very large portion (perfect for the 2 of us to split) and had all the right elements (candied pecans, fresh goat cheese, fresh mixed greens and a house made dressing I can't recall the name of but was a perfect compliment). My wife is a big fan of arugula, which was not one of the ingredients in the salad. She offered constructive feedback to the owner (who we were fortunate to meet) who was very welcoming of our feedback and promised us that when we come back to please ask for any special requests and they would be happy to accommodate if they could (arugula is a component in one of their flatbread dishes). We wish we had time for Dessert! Not only were they all fresh made by the owner (an award winning pastry chef) but several of the fresh offerings were gluten free which is rarely offered and important to our diets! We will most certainly be back for dinner and dessert in the near future!
