Salty Dog closed

Word from the owner of the building is that on Friday night there was a confrontation and subsequent threat of harm from an irate neighbor regarding an ongoing dispute about loud music.

This is just a shame. All of it. I hope that the owner can work something out, the Salty Dog has become a weekly habit with us.

Please allow me to dismantle the rumour mill on this one.
There is no need for it.
I reopened The Salty Dog because [like the Lake Place Restaurant] I truly believe The Salty Dog is a part of SOWAL heritage. (something that is celebrated where I am from) I also new in my heart there is a niche market there which made the whole thing possible. Thank you all for confirming my beliefs.

The Salty Dog was closed Saturday for a number of reasons;
neighbors complaining, manager(s)being arrested, and finally a man was arrested for aggravated assault on one of the same managers. I don't get it
I am very disappointed as many of you are and I pride myself on providing a good,safe and professional work place for our team but It is just not worth hard working honest people being harassed. It is very disheartening to lay those same professionals off this time of the year, the repercussions run deep in our community.

Please allow this old dog to rest for a little while.
It will be available for private functions so if any one needs a function space for a holiday function or a wedding we would all be grateful for the business.


And by the way, The same awesome Salty Dog Brie Burger is available at ( lunch Only) Stinky's Fish Camp (267-3050)

Many thanks to all who support our sowal restaurants.

I am quite skeeved. I just drove by the Salty Dog (right after telling some vacationers how much I LOVED the "Totally veggie, Dude" sandwich), and saw the sign saying "sorry, CLOSED"! I was willing to tolerate them xfering to a sports bar just so I could have my Totally veggie Dude, (Which I would have them add that awesome smoked bacon to.....as I'm no vegetarian...) but now I cannot even do that!! What 'Skeeves' me is that, at least from what I read somewhere else, is that this commercial building was there BEFORE the surrounding homes were there. If they did their due dilligence, shouldn't they have known the risk of building a home next to commercial property that was built as a food/music venue?? ( I can hear the responses now.... so if I am wrong, and it was just a commercial property, no designation labeled, and they could NOT know that a live music business could/would come in, and if they were disobeying the noise ordinance ((were they??)) then Ok,......I understand their rant. I think.) If not, I am totally skeeved, pissed, sad and irate that this has happened-especially as it's only because a few people got together and protested! If it's this effective, then why aren't we doing this about our government?? (Hello?!!) God, I'm just feeling like things are so backwards right now.
I loved going to the Salty Dog. Have been wondering when the old 'snapperheads' would open again, and when it finally did, I was so excited. It had great food at a decent price, good service and various music to listen to close to home. I'm bummed. I feel badly for the musicians that play along 30-a. Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
