    "Wedge" salad
    Michelle R.

    Awful Took forever to get greeted when walked in, I asked if we can seat ourselves outside they said "just give us one minute", they did say it nicely but the restaurant is dead. Ordering was quick but they were out of the blueberry beer I ordered and the iceberg for wedge. I took the recommended peach cider and got the wedge with romaine I will say my salad was really good, ranch was made in house and was fire Peach cider tasted like flat rose lol Fried Mushrooms were subpar - no real flavor Friend got salon tacos with beans, she said beans were good but salmon lacked flavor as well Lastly, my other friend got burger and fries, burger tasted frozen to quick cook and fries were old and hard like under heat lamp for awhile. Table would not level and even had napkins under legs to hold in place, was incredibly annoying I don't recommend and wouldn't come back sadly Server was sweet Fried mushroom

    Good food but they did get my burger order very wrong. Appetizers were probably better than my entree, drinks were delicious though! Big space with indoor and outdoor seating, but lacks parking.

    Flight of Six beers @ Gilgamesh

    Great lil spot!! Ambiance was nice and full of energy. Our server was engaging and personable. Food was good pub food. Nothing spectacular, I had the Firehouse burger with a Brioche bun. Great Smokey flavor. Fries were okay, nothing spectacular. My only issue was the beer, out of my flight of six beers, I only thought two were good enough to finish. The awakening was too coffee forward and bitter. The saison flavor seemed muted and lacked balance. The Blueberry lacked any berry notes and the barrel aged was way too Smokey and lacked depth of flavor.

    The restaurant at Gilgamesh Brewing is a welcoming, rustic spot where you can enjoy great beer and good food in a laid-back atmosphere.  The look and feel of the venue belies the fact that it's situated in an industrial park area of SE Salem, right near a busy road.  The deck in the rear is shaded and covered with lots of seating and tables available.  Both their beer and food tasting flights are first-tier! Tip: The Campus is Galgamesh's flagship restaurant, located just one door down from the brewery. We've visited here a couple of times recently, and, very much enjoyed the attentive, friendly service, not to mention their excellent food and beer.  My go-to meal as of late is: - Fire House Burger (1/3 lb. Wagyu beef pattie topped with red onion, house pickled jalapeños, Tillamook pepper jack cheese, peppered bacon, avocado and cayenne aioli on a grilled Teleera roll. - Stoney Fries (Stoney's hand-cut fries topped with chipotle sour cream, shredded cheese, peppered bacon and green onions). When the weather is warm I prefer their outdoor seating area, but there's a very cozy-looking indoor dining room which features a fireplace - I look forward to enjoying my meals here as the weather turns cooler :-)

    Drunken mushrooms, Gorgonzola burger, and chicken strips and fries

    We stopped by on a Friday night on the way down to Bend and we're thoroughly impressed with everything- the staff, the food and the facilities. The fried mushrooms were awesome. And not just button mushrooms, like REAL mushrooms and the ranch they came with was awesome as well. The Gorgonzola burger was massive and perfectly cooked. The chicken strips were pretty good as well, but I wouldn't come here for them. The fries were great and portions were huge. The beers were pretty delicious. I'm not an IPA person but my partner enjoyed them. I had two of the special tap beers and liked them a lot as well. We would love to come back for an event on their lawn sometime. The staff was super friendly to our dog and even fed her a cup of whipped cream with bacon bits on the top!

    Another stellar experience earns the all coveted, 5th and FINAL star. Came in tonite to find that their card system was down. So the fam grabbed a table and got settled in while I ran down the street for cash @ the nearby ATM (this kid only does electronic pay). Our server Addi was super sweet and kind, gave us just the right amount of time and space to figure things out... couple kids in tow and all (lol)! We grabbed some fried green beans and some buffalo wings to start. The youngins had the ginormous cheeseburger off the kids menu (awesome burger and value) and wifey and I shared the chimichurri steak. I had to grab a flight of their brews to sample... variety is the spice of life, right? All were filling, delicious and on point! When the bill came, the flight was there but with a zero $ amount. I pointed it out to Addi to get it corrected (integrity is a trait I hold dear). She was super cool about it and explained it was like that on purpose and that she appreciated us staying to eat even though their system was down... her way of going above and beyond to take care of us given their card system issue. These are the kind of gestures and level of customer service deserving of extra stars even if the food didn't match...which is not the case here. For all this and more, this place is absolutely earned MY 5 STARS!

    The portions here were plentiful and the food was great. I had the Mac and cheese tossed in Cajun sauce with pulled pork and bacon. It comes with green peppers and onions but I asked for them without. My girlfriend got the butternut sauce ravioli and loved the sauce and taste. And best of all? That's just the food! This place is a brewery. I had a Turkish coffee stout that was amazing. Portion was fantastic for my Mac and cheese and average for the butternut squash ravioli. Prices were pretty moderate as well.

    Great beer and food with a beautiful outdoor patio. They serve Oregon wines too. The beer flight is the wait to go. 4 oz pours! The Mac and cheese is rich and creamy. I had my chicken sandwich minus the bread. They are following COVID protocols. Plenty of parking in the attached lot. I wish they served their desserts with ice cream.

    Chicken Bacon Ranch burger with tomato spinach soup
    Kate H.

    Stopped by on Mother's Day. I was delighted with the service and speed on a busy day. The atmosphere was great with inside seating that looked inviting and plenty of covered outdoor seating. I had the mamba, it is great. It has a refreshing taste and is unique, which can be hard to find these days. My husband had the Doug Firocious. We had to buy a six pack on our way out he loved so much. The food was great. I had a chicken and bacon burger and tomato spinach soup that tasted great. Only drawback was the plating. It tasted great but looked, well plain. Definitely coming back

I had a caesar salad and fries to go with my cider and it was a lovely meal. This will absolutely be one of our go-to spots when in Salem from now on.

The inside atmosphere is sports bar fabulous plenty of seating for groups or couples.

I was thrilled to find that the scotch eggs were not only delicious but also authentically prepared. The yolk was soft and slightly runny, and the crust was perfectly crisp and flavorful. This establishment is a true hidden gem. While the food prices are a little steep, the quality definitely makes it worthwhile. We will be back!

Turns out they're right next door, tucked back a bit from the roadway so easy to miss you and when you're sober. Glad I noticed it as we were driving off, as it's a great taphouse with a large number of beers on draft, in excess of 20 I believe. Service is very gracious, and you don't have to commit to official tasters, they're willing to pour you a little splash of several beers for you to figure out what it is you'd actually like to taste. That said, we opted to do an official flight of four IPAs, one of which was a hazy. All pretty interesting; ended up ordering a pint of one of them to share. Like a lot of tap rooms, they use the app DigitalPour to list their beers so you can check them out online if you like. We'll probably be back again. We didn't order any food while we were there, but what we smelled, and looked at appeared to be pretty good. If we hadn't had such a large breakfast earlier at our hotel, we probably would've taken a flyer on something off their food menu; maybe next time.
