"The brainchild of Martin Lange, who grew up in a family-run restaurant in northeast Germany, Salut! is a small neighbourhood restaurant in Islington, founded in 2016, with Martin running front of house and his brother (and co-founder) Christoph in the kitchen. It's remained a defining part of the local dining scene, with an open kitchen, around 40 covers, and a relaxed atmosphere."
"Stripped-wood tables and benches, dark paintwork, and a shabby-chic, rustic interior make this corner venue intimate, cosy, and welcoming, while the large windows let in plenty of light."
"My white fish ceviche starter, I believe, came with grapefruit rather than orange segments, coriander, trout roe (perhaps in the sauce), and toasted pine nuts, but was delicious nonetheless with fresh, firm slices of seabream and an excellent light, piquant sauce."
Salut! is a small neighbourhood restaurant in Islington founded in 2016 by Martin Lange, who runs front of house, and his brother Christoph, who leads the kitchen. The venue seats around 40 guests and features an open kitchen, stripped-wood tables, dark paintwork, and shabby-chic rustic décor that creates an intimate, welcoming atmosphere. Operating primarily in evenings with limited lunch service on weekends, the restaurant offers refined European cuisine. Dishes include focaccia with whipped truffle butter, white fish ceviche with grapefruit and toasted pine nuts, charred leeks with marinated lentils, and seared venison with black pudding croquette. The food demonstrates skilled execution and thoughtful plating, though some elements like room-temperature butter could enhance flavour profiles.
