18 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Salem

“My husband and I sat outside and had a lovely snack in the sun, away from most of the hustle & bustle that October brings to Salem. We thoroughly enjoyed the butternut squash hummus, falafel, and cauliflower & quinoa tabouleh but the real highlight for us was the apple cider! Holy. It was the best we had on our trip around New England. Not too sweet, served nice & hot, lightly spiced and so, so good! The service was wonderful as well! Best of luck to this crew, we wish you much success & hope to see you next fall!🍂☺️“

“Amazing service! Great food and drinks! Antonio was AMAAAZZZING!!! He’s the best server ever!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️“

“My fiancé and I were craving oxtail and decided to order from this Jamaican restaurant—and let me just say, the food did not disappoint! The oxtail was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Everything we tried was seasoned so well and packed with flavor.

I forgot to grab the chef’s name, but whoever was behind the food that night deserves a big shoutout. You can tell there’s real love and skill going into the cooking here. We’ll definitely be ordering again—highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic, delicious Jamaican food! I was not able to take pictures but we will be back and let me not forget my beef patty- I ate it for lunch and it was perfect!“

“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 had a delightful birthday dinner with family last night. Our server couldn't have been nicer--waiting to time things to our pace of conversation and needs. The food was delicious and full of flavor. Being Wednesday night, the noise level was very low and so enjoyable. Our only complaint was that we ate too much to be able to have dessert--our fault!!“

“We came for lunch where we were greeted by very friendly staff, the space is a bit dated, as is the old furniture...but the cocktails were excellent, the main course of fried squid and grilled octopus very tasty and delicious and of course the Pinot grigio- Friuli 🥰 you have to try it All in all, high praise for everything and every recommendation“

“100/10! First time experiencing CAVA and WOW I have no words for jow delicious the food is (my exact order listed below) On top of that, the service is EXCELLENT here. Karissa & Carissa were the friendly and helpful employees that let us sample things we weren’t sure about.

Order: Harissa Chicken Power Bowl (no greens) with saffron basmati rice, black lentils plus everything else that comes in the bowl. Flawless. Perfection in a bowl. 😙🤌“

“This place is superb. The food was delicious, fresh, tasty, VERY SUBSTANTIAL (one bowl will feed 3!) and a delight. The owner welcomed us with grace and kindness and told us that if it wasn't to our liking, he would make it right. We were gifted Rice Pudding (the cinnamon....oy vey!) and Baklava. Will be back every time I go to Mass General for treatment.“

“I have passed this place a dozen times with intentions of stopping, but I always ended up driving by. I finally stopped in this week, and I am glad I did. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. I wasn't aware that I arrived 4 minutes before they were closing. They still made me a fresh roast beef sandwich, and they re-fired the fryers and made a cutlet sandwich for my friend. They certainly did not neeed to do any of this so close to closing time. The food was all delicious. I highly recommend giving these amazing people your business.“
