“The staff are always so friendly. It is always busy, but as a couple we have always been fortunate enough to grab a seat at the counter. The pancakes are incredible, and huge. More than enough to share. As a vegetarian, they will take meat out from different menu options and they have never messed that up. It's our go-to for diner breakfasts.“

Cook Out American •
1251 W Main St, Salem

“Don’t know what half these complaints are about unless from the local competition mad about loss of business. We have been at least 8 times or more since opening and have sent others as well. Every single one of our orders has been fast, accurate, cooked perfect, and delicious. Service is excellent. Those we recommended to try it also loved it. I never liked Cook Out before and could not understand the hype until trying this location. Well done everyone. Keep up the good work. Definitely our favorite and you are appreciated more than you know!“

“We always go to Applebee's whenever we want. Great service. I can't remember who our other waitress/waitor used to be.
However I will say tonight we went out for my little brother's 21st birthday and Tia or Tiarra made sure that we were well taken care of and felt the love all night long!! If you want amazing service come here the food can be hit or miss. It's usually pretty good but the service is always top notch, thank you Tia, you were amazing and made our night one to remember!!! 🥲❤ We're so thankful for you queen and appreciate the love 😭🫶🏻“
