    We came here on 10/28 for our first wedding anniversary dinner. Starting with the bread.. the butter that they give you is amazing and creamy. My lobster bisque had me wanting more. My husband got the pasta and ate almost the whole bowl. The steak bites had a mesquite flavor to them but they were good to. I felt like our server was stretched a little thin but overall good place.

    My visit, with a party of 3, tonight was AMAZING! Our seat was so cute. We were on the edge of the patio with perfect view of everything. We sat and listened to piano bar style music. Lots of American standards with Tony Gallo singing a few songs. Our waitress, Polly, was great. She gave us our choice of water, ( which I loved the choice)explained the cheese and charcuterie plate and oysters. The food was incredible. We started with the bacon clam chowder. It had the perfect smoky taste with clams in every thick spoonful. The chicken was great. It had a very crispy skin with a honey lemon sauce. It was served with potatoes, and arugula. The whole think had a perfect lemon taste The crab cake cake sandwich was very good. Seasoned perfect. There were good size chucks of crab. The coating and fry was perfect. It was served on a brioche roll. It was huge. I ended up only using 1/2 of the roll. The sweet potato fries were very good. They were almost double with fries. Crispy on the outside and softer on the inside. I forgot to ask for tarter sauce. But it had a aioli with a slight kick The Lobster Flatbread was amazing. The fig jam was my favorite Desert was my favorite. We split the Molton Lava cake and creme Brule. The custard was perfect temperate the crunchy sugar crunch was the texture my tongue needed to finish my meal. The cake left me speechless. I can't wait to go back and try the rib eye

    I was there this past Sunday. It was a beautiful day out and so we wanted to sit outside. It was about 2:00 in the afternoon. It was not crowded, at least not outside and it was near the end of brunch. The hostess was lovely and the waitress was really nice too. We ordered a cheese plate to come out 1st and then 2 meals, 1 was a salad one with eggs. The cheese plate came out and we had no plates or silverware or napkins so we started eating with our hands I finally was able to flag the waitress over and ask for silverware which she promptly gave us. I had to ask another waitress to find out when our meals were coming out. We ended up waiting over an hour for our meals which I think was absolutely absurd given that it was not busy and towards the end of brunch. I was never asked if I wanted a refill on my coffee, which was served luke warm. The food was mediocre at best. The eggs (huevos ranchero) were warm, not hot and just OK, nothing special at all. Beans tasted like they were right out of a can. My mom had the salad and she said it was ok. So not coming back any time soon. This was my 1st time.

    The Piano Bar at The Beacon. Always a good time.

They are so good different from your typical sub place and offer lots of different meats and veggie options. The staff is so kind, inviting and hardworking. I highly recommend that you at last try them just once. I wish I had taken a picture so that I could show and tell, but it will have to be next time I'm there.

I'm like OK just had a bad day no problem. When the food came out I just simply asked in a kind way if they have any hot sauce. Instead of just politely saying that they do but it cost, he very visibly annoyed said "it doesn't come with it .. I'll bring it". I was like okeeey what's the matter with this guys and when he does show up with the sauce even more visibly annoyed said it costs but he'll give it to me. But literally in every aspect it was really annoyed said. I refused to take it and paid for it of course. Why couldn't he just like a normal polite person said it's not included and there's a charge? Why make this experience so bad and be so rude and visibly annoyed? I don't need a smile just BASIC courtesy and not making me feel bad for just asking few basic questions for gods sake! I don't need this horrible service for over priced food!

    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

    First of all, Salem is a delight. The Adriatic is conveniently located on a busy corner.. it is…read morewelcoming and fun to walk in and be able to see the passing visitors.. The menu is fantastic.. Mediterranean specialties, beautifully prepared and presented, and fabulous service. We were a large party of 10.. but each course of our dinner was remarkably promptly served .. Highly recommend!!
