- TTedGreater Boston •13 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoAn elegant dining experience in Salem. #1 positive was our outstanding server and her assistants. They kept their eyes on us discretely and knew exactly when to approach. Very helpful and charming. Definitely deserved a 25% tip based on entire cost. Food was absolutely terrific, with one exception. Two of us shared popovers, arugula salad, and half chicken. Truly delicious and plenty of food for a hungry couple. We also ordered the duck onion soup. Fortunately, we were too full to need it. It was greasy. It didn't have any duck confit. Tasted foul, to be honest. That one "miss" didn't spoil a terrific evening. Great decor snd atmosphere. Pretty noisy, but not unbearable. We'll be back. Try the restaurant - you'll love it.More infoLedger Restaurant & BarPrice: Expensive• American• Salem•4.6
