8 Best Cocktail Bars near Salem

“My daughter and I were converging on the area from other states for some Hokie madness, and we’re gluten free for medical issues. We were late into the evening but were well welcomed and never felt rushed. Food was fantastic! I’m bringing my husband back the next time we come through the area.

Dietary restrictions: Many, many gluten free options!“

“Gluten allergy here and a vegetarian . We both were able to eat here. Wanted the duck with risotto but told there were no substitutions. Bummer. Nonetheless the chef was excellent and food sourced freshly. The service was good. The food and service gets it five stars but they need to allow substitutions. I get why they don't though — it was very busy. Parking was confusing cause the lot is down the street and a lot of spots say LUNA in the parking spot but customers for Fortunato can park there.“

“Very cool atmosphere, great appetizers & wine menu. Felt like a different city. Went on a Friday evening. ❤️“

“Excellent menu with straightforward options that go beyond typical Italian fare. The portion sizes are reasonable — not excessively large! Excelent menu, simple choices not your regular italian, much better than "regular" portion sizes decent, not ginormous! !“

“This was our first time going to Lucky and went at the advice of a friend. We were not disappointed! From the time we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly hostess/server and brought to our table. We dined on the garlic scrapes an appetizer and amazing! The kimchi, garlic, soy and honey along with the fried garlic scrapes were an unlikely combo, but oh wow- did it work. I dined on the shrimp and grits, which was a new take on the classic and everything on the plate was perfect. My husband opted for the evenings chef special, which was Spanish cooked octopus. If done incorrectly, octopus can taste like a tire; but this was so tender you could cut it with a fork. It had a slight heat on the back end with chili flakes. Dessert we had the “davaroos” which are homemade lavender shortbread cookies with a lemon curd sauce. It was delicious!! Don't even get me started on the craft cocktails. Whatever you can think of, they can make and impeccably I might add . Hands down an amazing experience. We will be back!“

“4 Star: Food: using less chicken with more rice as a filler for the ACP. Menu Cost: If you ask for a side of cheese dip, you will pay/receive the pricy appetizer only. Raised prices not shown on internet menu. $2 added to my bill!“
