KIDS EAT FREE on Wednesdays with the purchase of an adult meal!!

As a family of 6, we truly understand what it takes to have dinner with the family! 

Salena prides itself on its well-trained staff, menu options for everyone, and consideration of what a parent needs to make dinner successful!


We have experienced life as singles, as couples, and as parents (the first time… the second time…. the third and fourth times!) and know how each of those phases changes the expectations of a meal out. We know having a tried-and-true place for date night is important- your time is precious and we can’t chance wasting it on anything other than a great experience! And family meals- those that we are excited about because we are celebrating, and those that happen out of necessity- must be efficient and entertaining to ensure everyone gets what they need! 


Our menus are designed for the pickiest of eaters, as well as those that have dietary concerns. Our staff is trained to meet the needs of each individual who walks in, including our friends who are celiac, vegan, or vegetarian, and our kitchen is nut-free! 


To top it all off, our kids' meals end with a decorate-your-own cookie to make sure that the younger guests make it through dinner- yes, we are not above a bribe- I mentioned that we have 4 kids, right?! And if your kids are fidgety, we have toys and games if you ask the host. We truly want to make sure your meal as a whole family, and each member of each family has different needs to make that happen.
