Fine Dining Restaurants near Athens, OH

“Wow. Our meal at Salaam was one of the best I’ve had in a LONG time. We truly tasted across the menu- three appetizer sampler (hummus, tzatziki, and muhammara), vegetable coconut curry, chicken coconut curry, and chicken thighs mains, topped off by the Italian cake and gluten free chocolate torte.

Everything was fresh, flavorful, and unique enough to really exceed other flavor profiles of Mediterranean restaurants. The muhammara is a must. Everyone at the table gasped from the tastebud explosion. The curry was unbelievably unique- all the flavors and textures played out so well.

Every dish we had was 10/10. I don’t rate that lightly. It was good to the point we joked about eating there again tonight.

I did take off some points for service. Our individual server was fine, but some employees were yelling at each other in the dining room right behind our table (older woman to young bus boy) that resulted in slamming glasses/plates/bus tray, making for a loud and awkward experience.“

“Always pop in here for a dinner or breakfast when I’m staying at the OU Inn. Loved that they had goetta on the menu for breakfast! The bloody wasn’t too bad either. Usually you can pop in without a reservation, but they do take them.“

“Fresh delicious and balanced!“
