Restaurants in Salem

“Always great for American Diner fair with a Western VA twist. The regular opening server ( I'm horrible with names) is a food service tornado, running the whole front of the house solo until 8 or later. Chicken Fried Steak and Country Ham breakfasts are my go-to, but really you can't go wrong with anything you pick.”

“I got pizzas for the office and everything was great and the price was right too! I definitely recommend!”

“I spoke by phone to Joe to see if he could get me a gift card for a very good friend,. We worked it out to where it could be picked up the next day. Joe was very helpful and my friend got the card with no trouble at all. Great customer service!!”

“The food was fresh, delicious, and cooked by a very sweet lady. Thank you for excellent service and sharing your talent. This stop on our roadtrip was really worth it.”

“Plenty of fun events at both locations and all of the bartenders are always friendly and welcoming!”

“We've always gotten pizza (which is great!) but recently tried cheesesteaks and calzones - they are delicious! My mom even said it's the best and ever had. Such a cute, underrated gem in Salem. ❤️”

“Fantastic pizza! Great service!”

“Had a 5* experience. Food was made to order correctly and during the wait, I enjoyed a friendly nice conversation with a female employee. I was greeted as I came in by another male employee and was thanked on my way out. I think her name was Myaih. Very friendly, professional and polite. Get home and all 3 of us were happy with the taste of our sandwiches . Thank you!”

“I ordered the flat bread pizza online. It was delicious and ready to go when i arrived. Will be back soon! The staff was so friendly.”

“The Stromboli and wings were very tasty. The food was hot and cooked nicely. Carlos was friendly and helpful and the facility was very clean. Nice place.”

“Very friendly staff !! Good location..”

“If you have not tried Stave and Cork, you definitely need to!! The owners and staff are super nice and the atmosphere is great! Love their sandwiches (prosciutto, fresh mozzarella and fig jam?! 🤤) and their charcuterie boards are perfect. You can choose the wines for your flights. I can’t recommend them enough!!!”

“Great California burrito!”

“Great dinners with generous portions, dog friendly patio and excellent waitress Corinne who was very accommodating and it was apparent she loves her job!”

“We love our local CFA ❤️🐓🐄‼️”

“Me and my husband got a #1 key west club sub a couple days ago , it was made by a nice gentleman and it was one of the best subs we have ever had! We had never got anything other than the yummy icecream but the food is fantastic too!”

“10/10 A must stop for anyone in Salem for sure! As someone recently diagnosed with Celic the staff was excellent and super knowledgeable. I have not experienced good bread after being diagnosed until NOW. I cant express in words how absolutely delicious the bread is. It has absolutely opened my eyes into what is possible in a gluten free environment. I also dont want to forget to mention how incredible the sweets were. I hands down can say I just experienced my favorite cupcake of all time today. Chocolate Cookie Dough. Just trust me and get one and thank me later.”

“Absolutely lovely place!”

“A friend and I stopped in Salem, VA on a long road trip and loved this coffee shop! The vibes were immaculate, the staff were friendly and quick, and the drinks we got were delicious! I got the Headless Horseman and my friend a Chaider, and both were our favorite drinks we’ve gotten this season!”

“Delicious food and very quick service.”

“I've been to a ton of breweries throughout the country and Parkway is by far one of my favorites. Excellent brews, great taproom, and chill vibes. I look forward to stopping here every year while in town visiting our daughter at Tech. Cheers! 🍺”

“So I’ve been to this location a few times and it’s always a positive experience. The staff is friendly and service is great. I absolutely LOVE the coffee here, one of the best I’ve had for sure. Definitely one of my fav new spots!”

“A great local casual hibachi spot. Portion sizes are superb for the price and the staff are very welcoming. The drive thru speaker is sometimes distorted but not enough to make ordering difficult. Would take a friend 🧡”

“We had a party of 7. The food was all delicious & timely. Very friendly. Definitely recommend!”

“good cheeseburger 🍔 and onion rings”

“Brisket was absolutely perfect. Tacos were a delicious alternative to a heavy sandwich. Staff kind and helpful. Vibe is chill and prices are fair. This is my new favorite BBQ spot in Roanoke!”

“Real Mexican flavor with Great service!”

“Leonore’s Pizza is fantastic - I haven’t had anything there that wasn’t absolutely delicious! We are “wing people” and I honestly think Leonore’s has the best wings in town and they’re HUGE!!! You get the biggest bang for your buck with those and they’re SOOOO worth it! Every time we go in to place an order, we are greeted so warmly by the owner and he is ALWAYS smiling! You can tell that he truly loves providing delicious food to everyone who comes in. On our last visit, he recommended we try his homemade eclair and all I can say is WOW - I’d keep on going just for that alone! Leonore’s has become a family favorite and I highly recommend them to everyone. Order ASAP - your taste buds will thank you! ♥️🍕 **Photos will be in the comments! 🤩”

“Horrible food, horrible wait time, a more descriptive review on Google. Left hungry and went to Arby's and had much better food. I give this restaurant a negative ten. It made me give at least one star.”

“Our first visit and we fell in LOVE with Elderberry’s! We had drinks, a delicious variety of foods for lunch, and shared a big cookie one of the party couldn’t resist. There’s a LOT to choose from, a lot to tempt and a lot to satisfy.

We chose the Mac and cheese bowls in 3 varieties and all were a hit, as was a fantastic wrap and salad. Iced coffee, smoothies and signature drinks were all raved about and that cookie! Delicious.

The staff member was super sweet and helped with choices and extras. Very nice experience. The environment is uplifting and super tidy and has both indoor and outdoor spaces. A wonderful experience and I truly encourage everyone to patronize Elderberry’s.”

“So sweet and friendly and the food was great too!”

“Delicious food, salsa bar, affordable beer (domestic and Mexican beer on draft). Highly recommend for authentic Mexican food.”

“My husband and I go everyweek to dine. Best food and customer service.”

“We had the BEST celebration with our daughter’s Roanoke College friends last night! Tracy was an experienced and knowledgeable and patient server. The food was “off the charts” quality… the appetizers, salads, steaks, desserts, drinks…. Every bit was TOP SHELF!!! Thank you for an experience we won’t forget!!!”

“I stop by Sam’s when the hunger for a good hot dog hits me, and they never let me down. The dogs are delicious and the service is always done with a smile and a heartfelt thank you from the staff. The chili and slaw are made in house and perfect for their dogs. The slaw has a little more vinegar tang than most and it works well with the other toppings. I’ll be stopping by there in just a few minutes to ruin my bicycle workout with some dogs and a cold can of Coke.”

“After a 10 hour car ride we were looking for a place to eat, and franks was one of three options open. Safe to say it did not disappoint! The pizza was really good, and the staff was extremely friendly! We came in about half an hour to closing, and they were kind enough to put in some drinks and two pizzas for us! Thank you guys, keep doing amazing!”

“Beautiful & Delicious - often when food looks pretty, it doesn't taste great...that is not the case with Petals & Sugar!!! Tasty sweet treats in a variety of colors and shapes!! 🥰🍰”

“We went to have dinner tonight at Mac & Bobs. We sat on the patio and had Gavin as our server. He provided us with excellent service. He was attentive, friendly and went above and beyond. Excellent job Gavin! Thank you for an enjoyable experience.”

“The staff were very professional, I came in to get a free entree for a promo. I spoke to 4 different employees while being here and they were all nice and fun to talk to. I don’t remember their names. The food was made perfect and they checked on me a few times while I was eating in the lobby. 10/10 would come again”

“Great place, great service. Every time I go, Patrick and/or Melanie are sure to treat me with the best service you can get. I would recommend purchasing drinks from this establishment. They’ve got some fantastic selections all over the menu. I will definitely continue to return. 10/10. 100/100. A+.”

“love there pizza and you cant get unlimited toppings”

“This place is really good, nice and clean. Awesome staff and service. Delicious pizza with a generous amount of toppings. I recommend ordering from here if you're in the area. I will definitely order again whenever visiting an area around.”

“Absolutely delicious food! We definitely recommend the spinach dip with pita bread as an appetizer. The homemade chili was out of this world - I could have made a meal on just that. The wings were great and there were so many sauces to choose from! Definitely recommend this place to have a great bite to eat!

Kayleigh was a great server as well!”

“Good friendly people they’re good food”

“Food is delicious and was served pretty fast”

“love there pizza and you cant get unlimited toppings”

“They have always been super friendly whenever we've gone and we've liked everything we've gotten so far! I was impressed and surprised by the tableside delivery and checking in on how we were doing. I appreciate that the teppanyaki isn't sauced and salted to oblivion, portions are large (x2 meals for us), and the ramen is loaded up with goodies. Yes, the dine-in area is small but take-out is an easy option since they are relatively fast and everything is prepared to-go style.”

“Me and my husband got a #1 key west club sub a couple days ago , it was made by a nice gentleman and it was one of the best subs we have ever had! We had never got anything other than the yummy icecream but the food is fantastic too!”

“Great chicken, super friendly cook, good thing its pricey or I would be eating there everyday and be fat as a hog?”

“My family has always loved this restaurant. Salem Szechuan has been consistent over the years. recommend: hot and sour soup 👌 chicken with garlic sauce 😋”

“I order Latte Ventie Sugar Free Vanilla, all the time.”

“Casino was an awesome dude. Very pleasant and got my order correct. Gotta have my fish on Fridays and I'll be choosing this Long John Silvers mayhaps every time”

“I did lunch take out. The food was ok. Baked spaghetti was alright. I was underwhelmed by the steak and cheese. I guess I expected more from an Italian restaurant. However, those chips they served with the sandwiches, so so good. Im not really a chips person, but with these ones, ate every crumble”

“Wow. Thats absolutely all I can say. I’ve gone many times, but this time I had the crew make something more custom. The cook that assembled our nachos in a BFD style personally delivered his masterpiece. I couldn’t believe how delicious our dinner ended up being. I can’t say it enough, wings is my absolute new favorite place to go. And I can’t get enough!”

“Jimmy John's is a great submarine sandwich and it is HARD to find a good submarine sandwich in the South !! One of the best chain options out there! Highly recommended!”

“Best Chinese food in the area! Friendly and clean.”

“I order Latte Ventie Sugar Free Vanilla, all the time.”

“I was Happy to try the Flamethrower Burger w/Fries,along with a Medium drink/Flurry(Awesome service worthy of 10,000/10,000 of awesomeness)”

“Awesome place to eat. Very comfortable seating friendly staff and amazing food”

“Was very nice people very helpful”

“The staff was nice but the food seemed like it was all prepped the day before and the bread was hard. It was not bad but it was over priced for sure . Subway used to be a place you could get lunch are a good price but that time seems to have come and gone”

“I loved my mole poblano and my kids had a great time! The staff was more than accommodating and the drinks were stellar. The price was a bit steep for sure but very worth it with how they managed everything! Plenty of high chairs available if you have multiple small children. I asked for avocado slices for my babies and they were fantastic!! Happy babies and a happy me.”

“Rose did an excellent job. Today August 17 2026 Monday I made a purchase of two Tuna subs. Rose did a good job preparing my order, and I appreciate her kind attention in making my subs.
-The photos speak for themselves as to how delicious they were prepared and look-. 5***** stars for this Subway store.”

“Got the MEATBALL SUB. like usual, only this time asked if I wanted it spicy, and I said sure. Let me tell you it was GREAT. BEST MEATBALL EVER.”

“I know Hardee's in New Ulm MN has had some issues, but I went there today and was more than impressed! there were at least four people working there and they were so friendly and the food came really fast. it was fresh and hot and delicious! I can't wait to go there again, it looks like they have really pulled it together!”
