    The food was absolutely fantastic! We started with the crispy falafel cakes as an appetizer. I got the pan roasted chicken breast and my friend got the roasted Atlantic salmon. Everything was delicious and the portions were huge! I really enjoyed the atmosphere, and the cocktails were very yummy. Can't wait to go back! I've already recommended to all of my friends.

    Great food and warm service. I loved the presentation of all the ingredients. A touch on the expensive side, but felt worth it for the experience.

    Very fun neighborhood bar. I love the vibe, the crowd (very welcoming, lots of young people there and then us in our 50's rounding out the older crowd!). Server was great and we ended up there on Drag Trivia night which was a blast! Good food and good prices. Definitely a great addition to Salem!!
