You’ll Love Dining In This Subterranean Seafood Spot In Arizona

Arizona isn’t particularly well-known for its seafood options but those that we have are actually pretty darned good for being a landlocked state. If you’re looking for a seafood restaurant that stands out from the rest, continue reading because we bet you’re going to love this one restaurant in Scottsdale.

This is the Salt Cellar, a seafood restaurant that offers one unique dining experience: it is located underground! What you see above ground is simply the entrance.

After walking through the doors, you’ll descend a flight of antique wooden stairs down to the restaurant and bar, both of which are cozy and decorated in a nautical theme.

The restaurant was built in 1970 and has been a Valley favorite since 1971. It’s an especially wonderful hideaway in the summers when the desert heat can become overbearing.

As for the menu, you’ll find many of your favorite dishes: clam chowder, perfectly sautéed scallops, shrimp scampi, and crab cakes.

So, are you ready to enjoy some delicious seafood in this subterranean retreat?

Salt Cellar Restaurant is located at 550 North Hayden Road in Scottsdale. You can find details on the menu and make reservations on their website.
