“Kokeshi is in residency with Bambolina (a wood-fired pizza joint, also delicious) and it's perfect! My husband and I (and our puppy, Dexter) stopped in for lunch on Wednesday and were treated to a wonderful meal with an awesome server and comfortable outdoor seating. I had the Spicy White Kimchi Ramen and my husband had the Margherita pizza. Both were amazing! I highly recommend stopping in when in Salem!”
“We have gone to Salem for 12 years and wanted to try something new. This was so wonderful that we plan to do it every year going forward. If you are visiting Salem, you must try this. Captain Scott and his wife were amazing and friendly. Can't recommend this enough.”

“I can’t say enough great things about The Babe! Our food was excellent, and the atmosphere was fantastic. I had the Mr. Falafel sandwich, and I was still talking about it days later! It was so good—perfectly balanced flavors with just the right amount of tzatziki sauce (heavenly), all wrapped up in a soft wrap. The one recommendation I would make would be to cut the falafels into four pieces just to make it easier to eat. But to be honest, it didn’t stop me from devouring the whole thing, and I will be back to eat another one! But it will be a tossup—do I get the truffle burger or do I get another Mr. Falafel? My boyfriend got the Reuben, and he said it was incredible as well! Our bartender was fantastic—so friendly, knowledgeable, and rocking these awesome little heart glasses. She really knew her stuff when it came to cocktails. They actually serve orange Combier, which I feel is the cream of the crop for making the best margarita! She made us a fantastic margarita, and I also had another drink with grapefruit (I don’t remember the name), but it was delicious too! We sat at the bar and had the chance to meet one of the owners, who was so friendly and kind. The whole place has such a welcoming vibe, and I can only imagine how fun it must be when they have live music. I really can’t wait to go back!!”
“I love this place! highly recommended. Impressed with the food and drinks, the atmosphere and also the staff. Kelly B was our waitress, she was awesome, our first time there, she had a great attitude and always checking in with us! thank you for the great service! we'll definitely be back!!!!!!😊”

“Went to On the Grind this morning after seeing a post about them having a coconut bagel. The ladies behind the counter are very nice and know each of their regular customers. I watched them greet many and knew exactly what they were going to order or already had a preorder waiting. I ordered the coconut bagels for my son and I. One with regular cream cheese and one with pineapple cream cheese and they did not disappoint!!! The coconut bagel with pineapple was delicious and not overly sweet and lots of toasted coconut. Highly recommend trying this little hidden gem!”
“There’s not enough good things I can say about these guys. Not only is their food delicious but they are the nicest people I’ve ever encountered in a pizza shop. They are always happy to accommodate and their flavor is always top tier! My coworkers and I go weekly, sometimes twice; never disappointed .Tonight they catered a group meeting I was holding,Each group member gave the pasta dishes 10 out of 10 stars! Thank you so much guys.”
“Absolutely incredible food and great chefs! There were 9 of us that all ordered different things and we all raved and wanted to share with each other, but our portions were all so filling. Wish we weren’t traveling because I’d want this place in my neighborhood!”

“We went for dinner at 10 pm after an 8 pm witch tour!! Was outstanding !! Food was delicious, our waitress Andrea was so kind and hospitable, she didn’t rush us and was very attentive ! Honestly the best hibachi I’ve had! DELICIOUS”
“Absolutely love dining at sea level with Shayna. My daughter (7) went for her third plate of pop corn shrimp... a new record. My tacos were outstanding! I didn't even need the extra crème I usually ask for... simply awesome. See you soon!”

“some of the more creative and better pizzas in the area. a wide variety of sandwiches, wraps and subs, plus salads and dinners (pasta or rice). what's not to like? love the melanzane and the shrimp scampi pizzas, but other combinations are good too (plus MYO, of course).”
“this bar with the arcade is cool. I like the vintage games a lot. however, these bartenders suck. they don't know how to serve multiple people at a time. there's two events going on tonight so busy. I waited about five to ten minutes for literally just a today refill. and yes two people walked past as I flagged them down.”
“I was there last month for the first time in 13 years. And it was the same as I remember. Everything was great the service the food. My favorite place to get seafood. I hope it doesn't take me another 13 years to get back. I live in Virginia and I wish this place was down here.”
“Good was absolutely fabulous. We had raw oysters, little clams and chorizo, my husband got stuffed halabit with shrimp and I got blackened salmon. Delicious. 100% recommend”
“This is a great neighborhood pub! Staff is friendly. Food is good & reasonably priced. I'm gluten-free, so I ordered my burger without a bun. They didn't have GF options available. But will go back again”

“Mia our was not only our cashier but she also took our order. She was kind and had a great smile. We thank God for her which is a reminder that each person can make such a difference. The best example is Jesus who demonstrated God’s love when he came to earth to die for your and my sins in the cross and by believing in him you would not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16”
“We love this place. Can always count on tasty food and quick and service from the staff. Special thanks to Austin and Yumira who served us with a smile. Our grandson loves the double cheeseburger, fries and mango frap. Thanks for the great year all of you at McDonald’s we wish you all a great and blessed Christmas for God has blessed you and us in His love by sending His Son Jesus to die for your and our sins in the cross! John 3:16”
“We really enjoyed the views and atmosphere on a sunny day. Great vibes. Good service. Delicious food! I enjoyed my lobster roll, and the delicious fries. However, it felt a bit pricey.”

“Went here for some snacks during my visit. Not a huge selection on the baked goods but good enough variety that it didn't bother me. I went here because it was a gluten free option and I need that for my allergies. I had a red velet cupcake, and a sweet heavy cake plus a fruity pebbles rice crispy treat my husband had a cookie but he didn't care for it but I loved everything I had! He did loved my fruity pebbles treat! It looks so clean in here and the service was nice the guy at the register was fast and pleasent! I highly recommend you stop here if you need gluten free treats!

“A&J King have been selling excellent traditional french bakery items for years now and have become a local institution. Over time, they've slowly been adding more vegan options to the menu. Vegan muffins, cheese, and cream cheese are available daily. They also sometimes have vegan cake, sandwich, and soup specials. There's at least one vegan employee that I know of and the staff is knowledgeable and accommodating. Plus, there's excellent coffee from local favorite roaster, Coffee by Design.”
“I visited Wolf Next Door Coffee for an iced tea and muffin before touring House of the Seven Gables and I'm so glad I did! The staff was so incredibly friendly, the food and drink was delicious, the cafe was whimsical and dreamy, and it is so, SO obvious how much they care about their community. I will definitely be returning on my next trip to Salem!”

“Great food, delicious drinks, excellent atmosphere, and best staff around!”
“Went here on what’s likely the busiest weekend of the year for Salem. Halloween. We sat outside to avoid the wait and even though it was close to 45-55 degrees out and I accentuate that it was BUSY, the food was still perfect, and the food came out without being over due. Like Gordon Ramsay level perfection. We were all so impressed that we were just talking about it now, months later. I apologize for not leaving a review sooner!”

“I've been eager to try this bakery since it took over! I'm so glad i did! We initially went in to get one thing each, and both of us left with a whole lot more than we intended to buy! The pastelitos were so amazingly fresh and delicious, and he made my Mango smoothie with a whole fresh mango! The flan was out of this world, and my friends Caramel Cake tasted like heaven! Even the french fries we got were fantastic! The gentleman who helped us (I'm guessing it was one of the owners) was so incredibly friendly, he definitely made two more local customers! We can't wait to try slices of his other cakes,as well as the other items listed on his menu! Great amount of food for the price as well! All around, a great guy, a great business!”
“I love that it is always clean they have accessible entrances and gender neutral bathrooms very good for me because I am blind and prefer single stall restrooms the staff is always incredibly awesome and friendly I would like to have more relaxing music other than that everything is great”
“there used to be this really hot barista who worked here he had like this really cute hat he wore and his eyes were so pretty and I wouldn't even order anything I'd just stand at the counter and stare into his beautiful eyes like woah he was so pretty I would sometimes imagine giving him a chaste kiss on his delicate barista cheek and then I'd get embarrassed and run out, the food was alright I prefer dunks”
“Food was prompt, delicious, and most importantly not hard on the bank! The wait staff are friendly and it’s my partner’s and I’s favorite food place in Shelby! I get the wings or Alfredo and he gets their meat calzone or Stuffed shells! (I recommend trying both✨)”
“One of my favorite parts of my entire Salem trip! The drinks are so perfectly named, the atmosphere was amazing, and the bartender was fantastic. Perfect end to my night!”
Cheap Eats
“The chicken salad is delicious. If you try it, have it on the pumpernickel bread. It is fabulous. Their sandwiches are huge! If you go with someone else you could split and still feel as though you've eaten a whole sandwich. Everything is fresh, the place is always clean and bright.”
“Food is absolutely incredible, my husband and i vend for Haunted Happenings in Salem every weekend in October and we are so happy we found a spot to eat that's delicious and affordable! Everything we've tried from the soup, paninis and rice bowls have been fantastic!”
“Great takeout. Everything was amazing and hot, with a nice presentation.
Homemade chips and coleslaw were very good. Cesar salad was great, as well as the burger and chx sandwich. Really pleased and will be regular customers. Nice job.”
“After living in Salem for a few years, I have no idea how we’ve never been to Bambolina before—but we finally fixed that mistake with Valentine's Day dinner, and wow, were we missing out! This cozy, locally owned spot serves up incredible wood-fired Neapolitan pizzas with a perfectly charred, airy crust. My wife went for the Black Truffle Pizza, an indulgent mix of ricotta, mozzarella, provolone, and pecorino, topped with delicate shavings of black truffle. Decadent, rich, and full of deep, earthy flavor—it was perfection. I had the Salmon Donburi Bowl, which was just as phenomenal. The pan-seared salmon was tender and flavorful, resting on fragrant jasmine rice with seasoned wakame, crisp cucumber, and spicy marinated mushrooms. The sesame ginger mirin gochujang sauce tied it all together beautifully—bold, savory, and just the right amount of heat. And then…dessert...oh my gods... The Chocolate Spuma was an absolute dream—silky dark chocolate mousse topped with cloud-like Chantilly cream. It was light yet intensely chocolatey, the kind of dessert that disappears way too fast but lingers in your memory. To top it all off, the service was next level—attentive, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. I forgot her name (sorry!) but she's one of the best servers we've ever had. Period. We left feeling full, happy, and already planning our next visit.”

“Very reasonably priced museum cafe! The tables are in the airy, beautiful atrium. The quiche portion was small, but the sandwiches and falafel wrap were tasty and a good value. (Photos include a Turkey BLT with no veggies, falafel wrap, and quiche). They have lots of drink choices as well.”
“The food here was fresh and hot! Looks a little sketchy from the outside of the building but it was very tasty. Take your food across the street and enjoy the water.”

“We have never been disappointed with the attitude and professionalism of the staff at Londi’s and today was no exception. The pizza was delicious with healthy portions. Our server was kind, and professional. We pray that each one of you who read this review will be reminded that all this delicious food is a gift to thank God for. And the best gift you could ever have is when in his love he sent his son Jesus to die for your and my sins on the cross, and if you believe in him you would not perish but have eternal life.

“All the staff were super nice. During peak season lunch hours, the waiters were overwhelmed and missed our table. When they got to us they were really nice and apologetic and comped our drinks. A very kind response to a reasonable mix-up. The food came quickly after we ordered and it was great! Thanks to the staff and happy October!”
“Came during a ladies trip in August. On our first day, we stopped by for lunch and drinks. The food was fresh and tasty. The drinks were cold and were made perfectly by the bartender. (espresso martinis were 💯) The next morning we tried their breakfast and it also did not disappoint. We sat outside both days, but the inside is beautiful and has murals on the walls. Staff were attentive and polite, I Highly recommend!”
