    Everything about this restaurant was stellar: food was prepared beautifully (and delicious!), service was thoughtful, friendly and professional, cocktails and wine - excellent and the historic location was incredibly creative and fun. Lively room - especially considering it was a Monday night. We’ll come back here in a heartbeat. Best meal by far that we’ve had on our trip around the northeast. What a find in Salem!

    we had a wonderful dinner outside near the water. We were the only ones there. The food was great, the service was excellent. We had rotini, a Caesar salad, and split the Bolognese all worked great. Our server was phenomenal. A very nice experience.
