We ordered: The Pickle Gambit, Country Mac's Cajun Mac & Cheese, Mac's Famous Mac & Cheese, & the Cinnamon Roll Beignets. The pickle spears were lightly, yet crunchily breaded & piled high on a plate with yummy, dilly ranch & a second slightly smoky dipping sauce. Both Mac's featured perfectly-cooked shell noodles & decadent cheese sauce! The "reg" Mac had hearty chunks of bacon & fresh basil ribbons. The Cajun Mac was SUPER flavorful & had andouille sausage bites & VERY moist chicken tenders. The beignets were pillowy-soft & served with an amazing cinnamon sugar cream cheese drizzle.

Sunday brunch menu is limited but has some great options that aren't available other days. The chicken and biscuit sandwich was amazing! One of the best biscuits I have tasted in a while. The chicken and waffles were delicious and not what I expected. The waffle was more like a flavorful waffle cone than a giant Belgian waffle. The fried chicken was very tasty. The bacon was crisp and wonderful. The over medium egg was perfect. My Diet Coke was never empty this time and the rest of the service was also on point. We had a fun discussion with one of the owners, I think and were convinced of his love of good food and New Orleans. Nothing fancy with the furnishings and atmosphere but more than enough for downtown Salem. I'll definitely be back!

We all know the beignet fried chicken sliders are good. But this is one of my favorite spots in Salem. Lastly, the service is always great.

Tonight I got the ribeye and it was easily the fattiest, and worst steak I've ever received in a restaurant. I ordered medium rare, and out of the half of the steak that I was able to eat, half of that was rare, and the other half was medium. I picked through what I could, and ended up leaving an absurd amount on the plate. I took a photo, but I don't think it would be tactful to post it here. Midway through our meal, our server came by and asked how everything was. And although I was apprehensive to say anything, I decided to tell him what I thought. And I get it. The servers have zero control over the food. So I made sure that we tipped well. But for $57 plus tip for a steak, I shouldn't be leaving the restaurant borderline angry. Despite the food, our server was lovely. But I think we might be looking for a new favorite Salem restaurant.
