Saltwater Grill Specials & Lunch Deals

A chef’s feature might tempt you away from your usual order, but lunch pricing is the easier option to plan around. Here are the published lunch choices, what changes with the portion, and a few practical orders for different appetites.

Choose your order

What would make this meal good value for you?

Pick a goal to see a concrete order, its listed price and what is included. These are editorial suggestions using regular menu prices.

Seafood Po Boy · $12.99

Choose oyster, shrimp or fish, with fries already included. This main-menu order does not depend on arriving during the lunch window.

If you are visiting during lunch instead, the $11.99 Caesar Wrap includes fries and a choice of chicken or shrimp.

SWG Fried Sampler · $22.99

The plate combines 4oz fish, two jumbo shrimp, two oysters and one crab cake, plus fries and coleslaw.

Choose it for the mix of seafood. If shrimp are what you actually want, the six-shrimp platter is $17.99 with fries and coleslaw.

New York Strip + shrimp · $34.98

The $27.99 12oz New York Strip includes a baked potato, vegetables and garlic bread. Add four grilled or blackened shrimp for $6.99.

The total combines two listed prices; it is not an advertised surf-and-turf promotion. A ribeye with the same shrimp addition totals $36.98.

Portions change the comparison

A lower lunch price is only half the story

Lunch fried shrimp is four pieces at $12.99; the main-menu platter is six at $17.99. Both include fries and coleslaw. The $5 difference buys two more shrimp. If four is enough, the lunch plate costs less overall.

Lunch mahi tacos are two for $13.99, compared with three for $17.99 on the main menu. Again, fries are included in both orders.

These are different meal formats. Choose the lunch order if its portion suits you, rather than assuming it is the same dinner plate with a coupon applied.

Pasta comes with a salad

Alfredo Pasta is $17.99; Cajun Pasta and Seafood Mac N Cheese are $21.99. The pasta section includes garlic bread and a side salad, so you may not need to order another starter salad.

Compare a feature with its sides

When staff describe today’s chef’s feature, ask for the price, portion and accompaniments. A feature does not automatically mean a reduced price; it may be a different fish, topping or preparation.

For drink offers, use the happy-hour guide. Keep food-menu prices separate from any bar promotion when deciding what to order.

Catering & group-event quotes

Saltwater Grill offers custom catering for private gatherings and events. Ask for a quote based on your guest count, date, menu and service needs; no fixed public package price was verified here.

Before comparing a quote with individual menu orders, check whether delivery or pickup, serving equipment, setup, tax and service charges are included.
