The Salt Cellar Restaurant’s success is the result of its relentless pursuit of the freshest and highest quality seafood that can be found across the country. Over the years, the Salt Cellar has built a vast network of seafood suppliers who respect their demands. Further, they prepare their seafood in a manner that allows their customers to appreciate the quality and flavors of fresh seafood. For the past 40 years, owners Richard and Cindy Huie have always appreciated the unwavering support of all their regular customers. This loyalty has been the biggest reason for their long-term success.
IMPACT OF 2021 TRENDS: “The trend which continues to have the biggest impact on our business is the growing demand for freshness. Our diners appreciate the diverse selection of seafood that fulfill their needs. Another trend is the rapid growth of Arizona’s population, new residents from the west and east coasts who appreciate that we can deliver their favorite products here in the middle of the desert.” last year 2
