Chef & Story
Founder-chef Aria Nolen built Salt & Stem to celebrate small boats, local farms, and spontaneous hospitality. The kitchen writes a new mini-menu each afternoon based on catch and market arrivals.
Citrus-forward plates, hand-cut pastas, and charcoal vegetables define our nightly service. Come for a slow dinner, stay for the olive-oil cake and vinyl sets after 9.

5:00–6:30 is bright and quick for early tables. From 7:00 onward, the pacing slows for tasting-style ordering. Ask for the “coastline pairing” to match each course with low-ABV pours.
