Eddie V‘s is our new favorite restaurant. It was our first dining experience here and it was outstanding. Our server Jared was fantastic. The food was absolutely delicious. It was a truly wonderful Father’s Day. You don’t need to go to Abe and Louis or Ruth’s Chris in Boston to have an outstanding meal. Eddie V is where you should go.

Salem

About the restaurant

Surrounded by windows overlooking the Salem Harbor, Finz offers guests lively waterfront scenery in a comfortable open concept interior. Of particular note is the 40 seat bar which flows from dining room to lounge, floor to ceiling nautical wall, hand painted lobster octopus mural, open style kitchen and built-in raw and sushi bars. In warmer months, the outdoor patio dining along the water is superb, with spots in the shade or the sun to enjoy a libation or light bites. With events centered around local arts, Finz is the place to experience Salem.
