The food was absolutely amazing, but the service was terrible. We had to wait around 30 minutes for our check without our server passing us once which is impressive for such a small restaurant.

I wish I could be more positive. Our first visit to Toast & Jam wasn't great, mostly due to the waitress, but we decided to give it a second chance. The second time around, things were better-the waitress was kind, and the food was pleasant. We revisited on Sunday, 11/23/25 and ordered a smoked salmon skillet to split, along with a side of bacon and two coffees. When the killer arrived, we couldn't find or taste any smoked salmon at all. We saw no pink in the dish of Salmon. Some of the country potatoes were sliced in a way that could make you think they might be salmon, but there was no pink color anywhere. As a retired restaurant and chef owner, I'm very familiar with how smoked salmon looks and tastes, and after thoroughly going through the dish, there was none. This was an $18 plate, and despite the menu clearly stating it's served in a skillet, it arrived in a bowl. They offered to remake itm but based on past experiences in the industry, I'm always hesitant to send food back due to potential frustration or relalationin the kitchen, or simply receiving a sidh that still isn't prepared correctly. we just finished our bacon and coffee and went to pay, At the counter, the chef who I believe is also the owner insisted he had prepared the dish himself an that salmon was included. To me, that was simply not the case. He also mentioned the apology, but it did not feel genuine. Another note people should be really aware of is they charge an additional 3% if you use a debit or credit card on top of you bill. This was not communicated, and We didn't notice any clear signage indicating this policy. That's sneaky in my opinion. Many people probably would not notice this. Not seeing the pink of salmon nor tasting it then being charged extra for using a card, left the whole experience feeling a bit fishy in itself. My suggestion to the owner: Place that beautiful pieces of salmon on top of the dish so its visible. You can always see the pink even when smoked. We wont be returning and will be going back to other places in Salem who take pride and don't try to repoff customers. Oh by the way my fork was totally dirty with food crusted on it and had to ask for another one also.

I had a great relaxing time. All staff and even the cook were very nice to me.You can tell being there this is fs a regular go to spot for some folks. Which is nice to witness the community. The food was really REALLY good. I got the smoked salmon omelet with breakfast potatoes and toast. I tried the toast and jam first (obiously) and it was yummy!! I them tried the hollandaise and it is probably the best ive had in salem. (Im not much if an egg person) but I went in for the omelet. And good gosh darn. It was amazing. The egg was soft with no crispy bits (as I despise a crispy egg) and the flavors all meld together great. It was a good first choice.
There's a lot of HEALTHY options. I wanted to find a place that wouldnt upset my stomach and be fried or greesy and loaded with cheese. and really im so glad i finally tried this olace. Im excited to show my partner who has a renal diet and often we cannot find places to go out to eat because of the limited options.
I also had to try their blood Mary. And it IS the best one ive had in oregon. I dont know what they use for the base. But its sure not prefix and its not v8. The pickled aspagus is great. And the pickled green beans are really good and a little spicy!! And CRUNCHY. I love a good crunchy vegi with my bloody Mary vs the usual over soaked soft ones.
It was a wonderful experience. And i will be back.

Convenient location with good food and fair prices. I really liked the decor and was excited about the menu when I first walked in. The day that I visited (a Monday), it was busy but not full.
The only thing lacking was the service. Perhaps my server had a bad day (it happens), so I'll definitely try them again. The food was fresh. My breakfast burrito was good with lots of meat. However, the salsa was bland, and I would have liked sour cream. I could have asked for it if my server would have came around, but that didn't happen. They do have spirits here and video lotto. there is a lot of parking options! The staff were great and the food was out quickly! I’ve only ever been here for breakfast but I have never been disappointed! The portion sizes are great and the quality of food is amazing! I highly recommend! The jam is fantastic (of course)

Service is so horrible!! Took forever to take our order, had to ask for a refill of WATER! Had to get up and get our own boxes to go. Staff didn’t check on us once after getting our food and was passed by multiple times.
