We always try to find good local spots along the way, and I'm so glad we decided to stop here because this place was SO good! There are plants everywhere, which I loved, and it just has such a welcoming feel to it. I got the steak and eggs and asked for my steak medium rare, and they cooked it perfectly! Honestly, probably one of the best breakfasts I've had in a while. We also got the honey peach latte and had it made half sweet, and it was amazing. I'm also a sucker for fresh baked goods, so when I saw they had fresh-baked cinnamon rolls, I had to snag one for the road. Overall, we're really happy we decided to make this our stop. Everything was great from the food and coffee to the atmosphere and service. We're definitely saving this spot for the next time we're road tripping through the area. If you're passing through and need a breakfast stop, definitely give this place a try.

One meal was enough to feed me all day, and the Spanish coffee I got was mixed perfectly.

Other reviews mention rude service staff, but my experience was the total opposite. I wish I could've gotten her name to give her a shout-out. :) I do have to mention the lack of parking. There were still empty tables when the parking lot was already completely full. There were maybe eight parking spots altogether, but that would be my only complaint.

The cook was extremely thoughtful, and gave it to us with oven warming instructions, and not yet with icing or sprinkles -- and gave those to us in large containers to apply right before serving, for best results. It was a very generous, thoughtful delivery by Noble Wave. My brother and his now spouse had spent their first date at Noble Wave, eating this dessert, and it was a phenomenal time at our wedding rehearsal dinner to have them re-tell the story of their first date, and then share with all the rehearsal dinner guests such a delicious and excellently presented dinner, fresh tasting and presented 8 hours after pickup. Thank you, Noble Wave!

This really is a shame because the food is incredibly good. Very large portions. We split the chicken and waffles and our friends split the ladder. Would I come back? Unlikely. I mean, I'm all about tipping but when your job suddenly stops after bringing my food and there's nothing else what tip do you deserve? Very disappointed in the service.

I mean really, how can you be so petty? I ordered a 6.00 strawberry lemonade that equates to a…read moremedium drink anywhere you go, and I asked for them not to add ice. So what happens? I get 1/3 of a drink. I've been in the restaurant industry for over 20 years and I have absolutely zero patience nor empathy for places like this. I paid 6.00 for a small drink that was mediocre at best because they don't know how to balance lemonade with simple syrup or strawberry juice. We won't be ordering from here again and I'd suggest you didn't either. Also, medium poached eggs have a runny yolk: if you put poached eggs on your menu at least do them properly. We got hard poached.

The menu is huge, with a lot of interesting, slightly retro offerings. I went with the sausage patties with scrambled eggs and 3 buttermilk pancakes. My breakfast companion went with Eggs Benedict with hashbrowns. We shared a side of corned beef hash. We asked if we could have sausages on the Eggs Benedict instead of the Canadian bacon and, after checking with the kitchen, the waitress said it was just fine. The food was all delicious, with the eggs rich and buttery, the sausage patties huge and tasty and the pancakes excellent. The Eggs Benedict was decadent and flavorful, and the hashbrowns yummy as well. The corned beef hash was yummy and had a nostalgic flavor. The portions were huge, and we got two more breakfast servings this next morning. This place isn't cheap, but super fun for a special morning treat.

Y E L P : Fork Forty Food Hall Restaurant & Food Review…read more Ventured to Fork Forty Food Hall for lunch yesterday for the first time and I was pleasantly surprised. As food halls are all the craze, it was pretty cool to learn that Fork Forty is Salem's first food hall. It is a cozy food hall featuring six of Salem's best eateries in the historic Gray-Building - which I also learned is a building that has a long history of eateries that have occupied its spaces over the years. So, it's only natural that this food hall graced this historic building. What a unique legacy to be a part of. All that Google-worthy factoids aside, I must say, I really loved the industrial feel of the space. Loved the use of blacks and white - which allowed the food vendors signage to really stand out and pop against the darker field colors. Also, the food hall itself wasn't too busy - especially for lunchtime. So, that was great because the wait time for the food was minimal. The food hall was lively, clean and had ample seating. There is a water station with cups for patrons that want water only. There's also a bar within the food hall - so, if you wanted some libations with your eats, that was also an option. All in all, it's a great spot with various cuisines. There's enough to tickle your fancy pending what you have a taste for. Some of the cuisines range from Mexican, Asian, and Mediterranean cuisine to name a few. I opted for the Mexican vendor, Suzy's Taqueria, and I am so happy I went with them because they did not disappoint. The food was fresh and the price point was great!! Very affordable lunch prices. (**Visit Suzy's Taqueria page to see my review on their street tacos.**) Since this is a food hall, I didn't really interact with the staff as much. My order was placed at a kiosk - which had no wait time. Once my order was placed, the wait for the tacos to prepared was less than 10 minutes. The server brought them out to my table - which was my only interaction with the staff. So, that's about as much as I can speak on that. However, all interactions, though minimal, were very pleasant. For a first visit, I was pleased. I will definitely visit again before my departure from Salem to try out the bao spot or the pizzeria. Also, the history of it, is pretty cool!

The salad and breadstick that made one of the items an entree was embarrassing. It was literally the smallest salad I've ever seen. Ordered chicken on both Alfredos but only got it on one.
