I dont have enough nice things to say about this place. I reserved the private room for my friend's bridal shower and everything was perfect. It was very reasonably priced, the food was delicious, and the staff was amazing. 10/10 would recommend for an event.

The main course, appetizers and down to the drinks were perfection we loved our experience here! The whole menu had a fall vibe for October which we loved.

Just looks fancy. Not all too great.

Great food and incredible service. This was a blast and a safe haven from the craziness of Salem in October, Rebekkah was an amazing waitress and despite all the chaos never missed a beat and was checked up on us multiple times! Food was excellent too, the Rigatoni Bolognese and Margherita Pizza was cooked excellently. Would definitely recommend and hope to revisit whenever the next time were in Salem.

I took my family here last night . I was very disappointed in the prices of the food that we received for what we paid. My husband could cook the meal he order that cost $28.00 The service was good but they don’t give enough pasta and to charge 18.00 for a screwdriver made with Tito’s is insane. And 243.00 for our meal and to be disappointed.

We ordered the falafel sandwich, the fries came to us cold. The falafel sandwich was not what we expected. The falafel is similar to a burger patty, so it was like one dried big ball of chickpea. We also ordered the shrimp risotto, it does incorporate the ingredients in a cohesive manner. It was dry and flavorless. The last item we ordered was the rigatoni bolognese, and it was the only item that tasted like what we expected. However, the pasta was undercooked and there was barely no sauce.
The servers were nice. The food was underwhelming.

Absolutely fantastic experience at Adriatic!
I stopped in recently and had an incredible time, thanks in large part to our bartender, Bekkah. She was not only warm and welcoming but also incredibly knowledgeable about the cocktails and wine list. You can tell she takes real pride in what she does—every drink was perfectly balanced and beautifully presented.
Bekkah made the whole evening feel personal and fun, offering great recommendations for both drinks and food. The service was attentive without ever feeling rushed, and her friendly energy really elevated the entire experience.
Between the amazing drinks, delicious food, and top-notch service, Adriatic continues to be one of the best spots in Salem. If you sit at the bar, make sure to ask for Bekkah—she’s truly one of a kind!

Great friendly Italian! Pizza is fantastic as good as we had in Italy! Eggplant Parm is also fantastic! Bekkah, Cristina, Zoe are all nice. Travel to Salem several times a year and this feels like home! Owner is a little cranky but his team is great!!

Bekkah is an incredible bartender. Busting her butt slingin drinks. Our drinks were on point. Cute bar, clean, friendly staff. We didn't have the food, but this was a great stop for pre dinner drinks.

The worst waitress in the area. They are rude and disorganized.
The prices are too expensive for too little of a portion. I ordered pizza and there wasn't really much dough in it so it barely held together, $24.
The bread basket is also not even provided like other restaurants in MA, $3. They charge you for it and give so little. It wasn't even hot.
Also the water isn't even filtered for taste.
And they didn't split our check like we asked.

I had the chicken saltimbocca (sic?), and it was pretty bland. No salt and pepper and the table, and they charge for bread. We went during a slow period, and the service was still not great as the waitress refilled drinks once and took a long time to take orders. The ambiance is nice but was overshadowed by the meh cuisine.

I had the pork tenderloin, which was excellent. Others had entrees that were meh. We had a decent sized group.. Apps were fine but also average - hummus, meatballs, although the munchkins were really good. The service, however, was terrible. We were rushed aggressively by the waiter when the restaurant was about 1/3 full. It was awful. Slow to refill waters, aggressive to turn the table. We would have easily spend another $100 or more but than waiter was clearing our water glasses before we finished the second bottle of wine.

October in Salem is always chaos. This being one of the only places to accept reservations sets them apart from others. The pork tenderloin was cooked to perfection. The bolognese was loaded with flavor. Topped it off with Tiramisu. Highly recommended!

Pretty average food. Overpriced due to location. Everyone was pleasant just wished the food had more flavor.
