My salmon burger was excellent. My partner was less impressed with their salmon, finding the everything seasoning overwhelming. It was a lovely setting, though. Stick with the Tavern, as Nathaniel's can be too noisy with the musicians.

I have lived in Salem for several years. My husband and I ate at the Hawthorne many times, often with friends or family. I have always found it to be warm and welcoming, with excellent food.

We had reservations for Nathaniel's at 1pm, didn't get seated until almost 1:20 and were seated in the Tavern instead because they booked a baby shower in Nathaniel's. It was quite loud in there. Service was slighlty annoying, they kept checking on our table too often. When our first plate came out they immediately asked if it was good, didn't even get one bite of it. Our food took a half hour to get to our table. It all tasted very good, it was worth the wait. All in all, their scheduling and peopling skills could use work but the kitchen was on point :D

Had a great meal in a cozy New England atmosphere. The coconut curry was fantastic. My wife had the Ceasars salad which was also a hit. Nice beer selection. Service was friendly and efficient. Overall, an excellent meal.

Was told there was a 30min to 1 hr wait. That wait turned into almost 3 hours. Do not recommend.

An excellent place with outstanding service—truly top-notch! Highly recommend it. The Chicken Caesar Nachos and brownie are absolute must-tries!
My husband and I went to The Tavern Halloween night and sat at the bar. Allison served us with a smile during one of the busiest nights of the year. Her drinks were so good! We ordered a hamburger and mac and cheese. The food was delicious and again served with a smile. What a great experience!

Worst service in Salem. We got q reservation at 2:45 pm and we got our food at 3:47pm . The waiter didn’t cake, he did not refill our glass of water and everything took so long just to bring two burgers with fries. A waste of time and money. It’s very expensive compared to the type of service you get. We asked for mustard and hot sauce and of course we never got it. If you are visiting Salem, you will have a better experience eating in a food truck or somewhere else than in this place. I just want to clarify that we came in October but it was not busy at all. Also, the sangria was disgusting and the food was just okay. My husband asked for truffle fries and he got regular fries. Poor customer service experience.

Got deathly sick off of the fried pickles. Puked on my way home after a weekend in a Salem twice. Would not recommend these. Hubby said his burger was good, but I can't even think about eating here again.

The best meal in Salem we had!
We came back here after we stumbled upon the neat old and historic restaurant inside The Hawthorne hotel. We figured it looked nice let's try it out.
Everything we had was perfection! I've been touring all the pretzels every restaurant I go to this year and they had some of the best. The Chicken marsala was so flavorful and tender. The asparagus could not have been better prepared.
They have an impressive cooking team because it was all wonderful! Definitely a place we'll revisit!
