If you’re in McAllen, TX, SALT - New American Table is an absolute must-visit! Knowing Chef Delgado’s dedication to the community and his efforts to support local food banks, I was excited to try his renowned cuisine. Dining there with my daughter was a unique, unforgettable experience—a true journey of flavors from start to finish. Each dish, from appetizers to dessert, was crafted with incredible attention to flavor and presentation. Sitting by the kitchen was a treat, allowing us to watch the team work and interact closely with our amazing server, Hugo. We were well taken care of by the chef and his team, who ensured every moment was special. I’ll be making the 2.5-hour journey back to McAllen soon for another visit!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in McAllen. I recommend sitting at the chefs counter overlooking the kitchen. Very diverse menu and everything is outstanding including the service and the wine menu. I recommend it will return

It’s rare to find a restaurant that checks all the boxes. If six stars were available I would pick those! The staff is well trained and you can feel their enthusiasm for pleasing you. They want nothing more than to make this a very special experience. I had the duck (perfectly prepared), wife had the scallops (amazing texture) and a watermelon salad (fresh) My sister ordered a pear and cheese salad. We requested Brussels sprouts and asparagus ( the lemon curd was crazy good) for sides. It was my sister’s birthday and a special menu had been printed for her. A gift from the kitchen of Salt Chips and dip was brought just after the drink order. They were excellent. I know, potato chips? They were that good. We all had cocktails first and wine with dinner. Their Salty Dogs is fantastic. This is the best restaurant We have visited in McAllen in the two years living here. We will be regulars from now on.

Had a reservation on a Friday Night and was seated promptly. Have been here several times and service is always great. Recommend the watermelon cocktails, refreshing and slightly sweet. This time tried the scallops, which was a light dish but full of flavor. Shared the Baked Alaska, which was delightful. Was not a fan of the Prickly Pear drink, and the restaurant was warm. Several guests were fanning themselves. Regardless, would still come back.

My husband and I went here for a date night and it was an overall amazing experience! Our server, Apollo, was a big part of that. He provided great, genuinely happy service and his recommendations for appetizers and desserts didn't disappoint. I had the filet and my husband had the ribs, we enjoyed the fried burrata appetizer and ended it with the Baked Alaska which is probably one of if not the best dessert I've ever had. Would love to come back!
