About this restaurant

Great for scenic views
Neighborhood gem
Great for outdoor dining

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.

Great outdoor dining space overlooking the harbor. Apps and drinks were excellent, especially the clam chowder. Our entrees arrived cold and after they reheated them the fish was dry and the rest of the dish unevenly warmed!

Service was great and the food was amazing. My dad got Greek steak tips and my husband and I split the paella. The clam chowder was delish too. Amazing view. Thank you Finz!!❤️

Wonderful location in Salem right on the harbor... esp. fun in the summer with their outdoor patio. Great for anyone ... including families with children. Extensive seafood menu but also other options if you're not a fish fan. Staff very friendly, helpful and well trained.

Food was great, well presented. I had to request water from waiter several times. Maybe because we didn’t order drinks he stopped checking. I requested an extra piece of bread for the seafood stew but it never came.
