We were greeted with a smile, Kendra helped get us sorted. We had a Fried Eggplant slice, Funghi-Porcini Cream Slice and a beer to share. The fried eggplant was delicious, the crunchy texture with the creamy eggplant on top of the pizza - it worked. Slices are large and plate sized, we were full with one each. Plenty of seating here, and they have a sauce bar that you help yourself to. I went for the hot honey and that added a nice kick to my slice.

The star of our visit was the mushroom linguini and the personal pizzas. The linguini was beyond fresh, perfectly balanced, the three type of mushrooms blended nicely and the truffle oil was the added touch. The personal pepperoni pizzas just hit the spot.

Because the crust is so thin, it pools a decent amount of grease in the middle when it comes out right out of the oven. The pizza is significantly better if you let it cool and rest for a good 5 mins. Also makes it much easier for kids to eat after it sets up a little bit, otherwise it's going to fall apart/have cheese sliding off/put your kids in a downward spiral if you're like me. Otherwise, reasonably priced for the area. Drink menu very good as well. Good lunch spot.

The funky outer-space theme is packed with incredible memorabilia, including signed items from Star Wars, Star Trek, The X-Files, and more. Everywhere you look there's something interesting to check out while you wait for your food. The pizza absolutely lived up to the hype; fresh, flavorful, and worth the trip. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and made sure our family had everything we needed. They had unfortunately run out of their famous garlic rolls, so we tried the gluten-free garlic slices instead. While we appreciated having an alternative, they just weren't the same. One funny family moment: my youngest was afraid to use the bathroom because of all the graffiti on the walls! Once I explained it was part of the restaurant's quirky aesthetic, he laughed about it. One small heads-up for future visitors: there is a step immediately outside the exit that can be easy to miss. My son took an unexpected tumble walking out. Thankfully, he wasn't hurt, but it's worth watching your step. Overall, the incredible pizza, unique atmosphere, and excellent service made this a place we'd happily visit again. If you're in the area, this place is definitely worth a landing.

I really liked the dough, the assortment of cheeses was fine (not my favorite but not bad), and the sauce was probably my least favorite part of it, I'm not sure if it was basil or oregano but that was the main flavor profile from it.

You don't actually get fries with your sandwich. No, that's considered a "luxury item" here--almost $10 for a pile of potatoes, as if they were hand-carved from marble. At those prices, you half-expect them to come with a certificate of authenticity. The dining setup is another puzzle. The ordering area is cavernous--roomy enough to host a small wedding--while the actual tables feel like an afterthought, crammed into tight corners and always overcrowded. Locals? Forget it. This place runs on tourist cash, and it shows. You'll find yourself trying to enjoy a slice while being elbowed by a family of seven comparing witch trial souvenirs. Service is friendly, but basic. Don't expect table delivery; if you want your food, you'll need to stage a retrieval mission across the crowded floor while balancing your overpriced fries like they're a Fabergé egg. Still, here's the kicker: the food is so good you'll put up with it. The pizza's delicious, the sandwiches are exceptional, and the fries--financial robbery aside--are worth it. Four stars because the food carries the place on its back. One star off for charging champagne prices in a paper-plate joint.

April 17, 2026 I…read morewent with my parents tonight to the Adriatic Restaurant (Washington Street), Salem, MA. We've started having dinner out twice a month and this was the most recent experience. I had gone online to the NORTH SHORE DINNING PAGE on Facebook and asked people about their experiences with the restaurant in the last two days and here's what people said: "great, tender meatballs", "great eggplant parmigiana", "very good experience". .... And what we found out is that they were right. Those things were all true! Now.... As to what we ordered: I got the grilled octopus. It was the only partial miss on the menu. Arugula just doesn't make a very good sauce and it was a pretty bad base for what would otherwise might have been a great appetizer. My mother got the Caesar salad. It was good. It's a hard thing to screw up. My father ordered the meatballs. They were amazing and delicious - just like Facebook promised. The tzatziki sauce was good. Maybe not as good as mine, but good nonetheless. So dinner.... Mine was the Chicken Saltimboca. It was so good that I'd bathe in the sauce they make with it. I loved eating forkfuls of the chicken with bites of the mashed potatoes. That was really luxuriant. My mother had the Eggplant parmigiana and she wiped out the entire plate. She loved it. My father.... Beef tenderloin tips. Maybe cooked slightly too much, but delicious. He wiped out the plate. To drink.... I was out of the hospital and recovering from brain tumor surgery, so I had the hard cider (3.5% BV), my father had the Peroni (Italian) beer, and my mother had the Bud light. I tasted the Peroni and liked it very much. The hard cider had almost no sweetness to it. It was dry as a higher end brut champagne.... Which actually set off the meal really nicely. My tastes weren't clashing and that was good. Our waiter, Sean, was great. Ask for him! We left a $32 tip, so the bill came to $197.85

Operated by Antique Table, Piccolo Piatti of Salem is strictly a takeout eatery (no table seating) which serves up a variety of paninis/subs/wraps with fries, chicken wings, pizza, grain bowls, salads, smoothies, acai bowls, juices, and can soda. The menu here is different than Antique Table and Piccolo Piatti Winthrop, which offers full service dining with mostly Italian food. I stopped by Piccolo Piatti mid-afternoon and the place was fairly busy with people hanging out waiting for their orders. I ordered a Salmon Bowl ($16 plus tax) which was ready in about 25 minutes after ordering since there were already large orders before mine. I watched the two cooks prepare food in the kitchen as I waited. The Salmon Bowl was really good with nice flavors, which had white rice, mixed greens, red onions, pico de gallo, hot tender honey glazed salmon smoothed with a pesto mayo. I will definitely have to drop in again for a hot sandwich with a smoothie!
