Salt of the Earth- rustic American eatery & bakery

Excellent find in Fennville! We received great service from the wait staff and the chefs. The small plates/appetizers were beautifully crafted and most were served with a delicious sauce. We tried 3 of the pizzas, all were all delicious. The mac in a pie was the best. They have an excellent wine list as well. Thanks Matt for those extra carrots!!!

Driving by - looked nice. Sunday brunch 1230 pm. Great competent service. Friendly environment. Nice thoughtful menu. Wonderful food!!! Can't wait to go back for dinner. Higher priced but worth it.

Overall experience was not good. Seating time: we had a reservation so we were sat immediately. Wait time before drinks: very short, or waitress was quick to ask us for drink orders Waitstaff: not great. While she was quick to ask for drink orders she said she wanted to "placate" us with bread since the bar was running a smidge behind and once drinks were in and dinner orders were given we barely ever saw her again. Wait time between drinks and food: 1.5 HOURS. Food quality: every single item is overly salted so its hard to know if something is of high quality or even fresh. It's hard to make something overly salty and bland at the same time but they accomplished that. Food quantity: small even for fine dining. The Salisbury steak was the size of a deck of cards with a single tiny baby carrot and one redskin potato cut in half (not the fingerling potatoes as advertised) all for $17. The only thing on the menu of good size for cost is the pizza. Overall: not a good experience for the cost. They are ambitious to use locally sourced items but fall flat in preparation. Quality and quantity are not present for the cost. Hopefully the kitchen will get it together and make something worthy of the bounty that is in southwest Michigan. Until then, be prepared for small dishes with copious salt.

I visited on a Saturday night and got sat immediately. The wait for food was long, but it is all made to order from scratch, so I am not sure why everyone is complaining in the reviews. Are you a toddler? Eat a snack. Everything was great and cooked well. We started with the perogies and a couple glasses of wine, which were perfect. I had the bluefish with curry for an entree. The fish was cooked perfectly, but I thought the curry overpowered the fish and didn't compliment. Of course, this is just a difference in tastes between myself and the chef, so don't let this deter you! Dessert was a strawberry and whipped honey dish that was ethereal. Service was great, food was great. Well worth the stop.

Fantastic Service, good food. We loved the brussel sprouts we had as a side dish. Dessert was fantastic. My only complaint is I wish they took reservations.
