This restaurant is very close to my house so my husband and I popped in one morning before heading out for errands. There is plenty of parking in a large open parking lot. The restaurant doesn't look very big, but it definitely handles a lot of people. It was busy when we walked in but we were seated immediately (you seat yourself at any clean table and a server brings menus right away). We ordered coffees and waters then perused the menu, which is full of wonderful sounding options. I landed on the hash benedict and he got an omelet. We also ordered a blueberry pancake to share. My eggs were *perfectly* poached and the hollandaise was incredible. His omelet was full of meat. The home fries crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The pancake was MASSIVE and full of berries. Service was immaculate. 100/10 will return read more

Clean, friendly, fresh. What's not to like? Even the coffee's good. My egg sandwich was delicious and my son found his breakfast burrito to be "good." Appreciate the refill on the coffee, too. read more

Best breakfast I've had in a long time. Everything cooked exactly as ordered, eggs over easy, sausage well done, dry marble rye toast, home fries to die for. Service by Karina A++, thank you! $15.49 with tax, probably the going rate these days, highly recommend thank you. read more

April's II on highland ave was packed on a thursday at noon, but we were seated right away. i ordered the stuffed french toast which came with cream cheese and strawberry jelly stuffed between two french toast slices, slathered with strawberry sauce and strawberries + whipped cream. it was a delicious treat from my regular breakfast order. my friend who recommended April's got the dominican breakfast which was perfect in every way. service was excellent and we did not experience a long wait nor a rush. strawberry stuffed french toast 5/5 dominican breakfast 5/5 reliable, delicious, homey breakfast with extra sweetness. ambiance: 3.5/5 food: 5/5 service: 5/5 aprils ii: 4.5/5 read more

The foods good, there's just one manager who makes us not want to go here. She's always there and we call her the breakfast (insert Seinfeld soup reference here). We usually pick up our food to go, and this woman won't let to go orders have more than 2 creamers with their coffee. My wife asked for more and this woman actually said "that's all you get". She's unbelievably rude to people, especially people picking up food. This morning my wife picked up breakfast and that manager wasn't there, so she asked for extra cream. The poor girl very nervously said "I'm sorry, we're only allowed to give 2 per coffee. Luckily whoever was managing told her that was a crazy policy and to give people whatever they needed. But the fact that that's a policy to begin with is just bonkers. read more

I Love the LOVE. THE. FOOD. there. Is great . and the people there. Are. wonderful. People. They hav

One of my favorite places. The food is amazing and the staff is great!! We use to bring our class of special needs kiddos here and they were so wonderful to us! I have also brought my family and will continue to go. I just LOVE it!! read more

Saw April's II restaurant going into my doctors appointment sharing the same parking lot. The menu selections were all great, with a number of Caribbean specialties, but I decided to get what I've been missing: corned beef hash with poached eggs and country fries. So good! Had bagels too. A great breakfast and brunch place! read more

I'm very disappointed in this place. And it's too bad because the food is good. There was no response to my last review. As well I sent an email directly from their website and they never responded. This tells me they truly don't care! If they care about their clientele at all they would at least respond when I ask for a response! Terrible management service in my view! U til I hear back from them directly I will never eat there again. As good as the food is, there are many other choices!!! And I am sure to tell all my friends! read more

My mom and I made plans to meet here on a Thursday morning. She was able to grab a seat for us as I was just parking in their private garage. There are boots and regular low top tables available to sit at with a fair amount of space in between. To be honest, it was hard to decide as there were 5 jam packed pages to look through that are offered all day. Such options include omelette, sandwiches, flat breads, pasta, Dominican dishes, soups, salads, and more, oh my! For a started, we shared a corn chowder which was a bit more soupy and under salted from what I've had before. Even so, it was warm and scratched my craving. Nothing a little salt and pepper couldn't fix. My mom got their roast pork with a side of mashed and sautéed vegetables. I got the seafood mofongo as I saw a picture on Yelp that I just couldn't shake. The pork was tender and soft with the whipped mashed potatoes. The vegetables were more green bell pepper compared to the zucchini and other bell pepper colors for those who are curious. I was in LOVE with my dish as it tasted even better than it looked. I've have monfongo made by my ex's mom but this topped it ten-fold. Overall, I had a wonderful time with my mother. The dishes took a while to come out but that's understandable as the selection they over is massive! Also, the portions are very generous with lower cost. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. So much so, that I just had to get an order of peaches and cream waffles to go which were unsurprisingly delicious as well. I can't recommend supporting this local business enough. Prices were more than fair served by kind faces. read more

This place is nothing but the truth. It's not a large menu and not a large dining area, but that's a plus. I had the French Toast and Kielbasa one day, the omelet the next. Everyone else there that day was an Eggs Benedict fan. Kielbasa and Eggs is delicious. The French Toast is delectable, and the coffee is very tasty. I really enjoyed the customer service and attentive waitstaff. Great place for breakfast. Will come for lunch soon. read more

We had the shrimp fajitas and chicken Caesar salad and both were excellent! Fast courteous service!

The worst service, most rudest employees, overall vibes were awful. Whoever decided to open up a second location here should've rethought their decision. You definitely need a whole new set of employees because every single one of them has a stink face as though you just farted before walking in. The food is also disgusting so whoever cooks should be fired. Waste of money for sure. read more

Horrible and doesn't have good customer service skills. I would think they would be more handicap accessible than what they are due to the location. read more

Very welcoming Food was great Place was very clean and staff was attentive Their Lynn location is fabulous as well read more

honestly the food i ordered was mediocre, the chicken, in the chicken and waffles, was very under-seasoned. other than that, the service was very warm and welcoming and the ambience is perfect for a brunch spot. read more

Food: 50/50 Service: 25/25 Ambience: 25/25 *** poppppin music Total: 100 If you're looking for a bite outside of busy downtown Salem, look no further. April's II is delicious and affordable! They offer a nice mix of American diner food with some Caribbean Boriqua classics. I HADDDD to order the mofongo, and I was very happy I did. The shrimp was fresh and the sauce was flavorful. I loved reading the story on the wall about April. I love supporting these mom and pop businesses - you know you're spending money on quality food and helping folks put food on their tables, and provide jobs to locals. (: will be back next time I am in Salem! read more

A couple Sundays ago I went to this place as I do every Sunday and I ordered my usual, which is corn beef two eggs over easy. While I was enjoying my breakfast, I almost choked off a piece of a long hair from the corn beef. I told the daughter of the owner what I have found and I gave her that long piece of hair and I told her this could not be mine because I'm bald, And she said OK I'm sorry and I will give you 20% discount on your bill. I think this is handled poor poorly. What do you think ? please comment. read more

April's II - Dominican Benedict's - American Near Me - Salem, Massachusetts

I LOVE THIS PLACE! Amazing service, wonderfully friendly people (owners, staff and regulars [shout out to Roger!]) and the food... OMG, the food. This was hands down the BEST eggs benedict I've ever eaten (and I order it everywhere I go). The restaurant was hopping at noon on a Sunday during Labor Day Weekend, but we easily found an open spot at the counter and were taken care of right away. Even though it was packed (for good reason) it felt un-hectic and spacious. This place rocks -- it really has it all going on! read more

We moved into Salem last fall, and April's II happens to be just down the street from us! We have been a few times and enjoyed a nice mix of their breakfast and lunch options. This last Friday, we popped in for an impromptu lunch date and sat at the bar. I love the huge picture of April and the story. So much love there! The place is good sized and very well maintained and clean! Service is swift yet kind! Even the chef came out to chat for a minute while we were enjoying our meal. I opted for the April Salad with grilled shrimp. This is their take on a Greek salad with a very nice light dressing. Look at the flower, too; so pretty. While the salad was delicious, the grilled shrimp made me drool. I ate every bit of them. Hubs had the Rueben and was very satisfied with the taste, and the fries were perfectly seasoned. Iced Tea was so refreshing! Prices were extremely reasonable as well. This is a go-to spot for sure! read more

Food and service was good. I ordered the stuff french toast but then found a piece of hair in it so I didn't get to enjoy my food.

Great vibe as soon as we walked in. Service was great. Food was cooked to order but there was no wait even though the restaurant was busy. Food was very flavorful. read more

Hidden in a strip mall, but plenty of parking. Seat yourself when you get in, coffee is brought over quickly and so is your food. Service to get a refill of juice and the check was a bit slow though. The food portions are huge and very tasty. I got an omelette. My daughter got pancakes and my mom got French toast. Really great for all of us, and brought home leftovers. read more

So decided to try this place again after a year of not going there because of a hair in my meal. This time there was not one but TWO hairs in my omelet, the first one I tried to ignore seeing as to how it was only on the inside of the takeout container when opening my food but the second one was fully inside my omlete. So disgusted couldn't even get myself to eat any of the other food I got which sucks because the food usually tastes good. read more

The food is good, real good. A little on the pricier side, especially for drinks, but it's worth it. The problem is the service... if you go on a busy day, expect sub par service.. The food makes it worth it, but there's other places you can go in Salem and the surrounding area that gives better service and has comparable food read more

AMAZING!!!!! My friend and I love brunch food and we absolutely LOVE the food we got here. We ordered the Dominican Benny and Aprils Benny along with a side of corn beef hash. Every bite full was bursting with flavors. Poached eggs were cooked perfectly, corn beef hash was perfectly seasoned, the steak tips from April's Benny is outstanding, just melts in your mouth. We both loved it so much, we both orders a side of tips to take with us. Staff was extremely friendly and attentive but not in your face. Jonathan gave us great recommendation based on what we wanted. And even told us about a great sweet treat. Definitely recommend and will be returning. read more

I have tried Aprils II in Salem a few times. Each time had an omelet. The omelet was ok, nothing special, and each time the home fries that come with the omelet tastes like they were cooked in an old tin pan. read more

Very good breakfast place in Salem. The food and service were excellent and the prices very fair, as well. Generous portions--I got two pancakes and took some of it home with me. We're adding this to our rotation of breakfast spots. They're definitely on the right track, judging by how busy they were on an early Saturday morning. read more

Always a great breakfast at April's II. The service is good and the place is spotless.

Great service and food each time I have visited! Usually does not take any time to get a table and quick service. Food comes out nice and hot every time. read more
