This review is not about liquor. It's about the terrific gift store and gourmet chocolate counter…read moreat Keizer Liquor. Independent, quality chocolate shops don't seem to last long, partly due to climate change and the rising cost of cocoa beans. See's used to be my go to chocolate shop, but they use too many artificial ingredients, especially for their prices. The handmade chocolates at Keizer Liquor come from Minnesota (I'd rather support locals), but for taste and gift quality, they are excellent, if pricey. The gift shop has lots of year round and seasonal offerings that will brighten any home. Most items are a little expensive, but they're regularly marked down in post season sales. I'm glad this store is doing well. There's not much that compares in all of nearby Salem.

I come to this chain every holiday season for Christmas crackers, a tradition over Christmas dinner every year. Also tons of candy, chocolate, specialty food items, gift boxes, home decor and small toys for gifts and stocking stuffers. I have a friend that is hard to shop for as they grew up in a wealthy family, but I can find something here for them almost always. This year it's a 9 pack of beer from around the world for $20.

They also have a little bit of everything else, jewelry, clothing, lotions, lip balm etc. super cute place to meet up with friends and grab something creatively crafted to sip on.

Xicha Brewing is good spot in Salem for sure…read more We ordered the barbacoa bowl, quesadilla, and nachos, and everything came out good. The barbacoa was good and well-seasoned, the quesadilla was simple but done right, and the nachos weren't overloaded or soggy just balanced and clean. I'd definitely order it again. We also tried three different beers a lighter, crisp option, a hop-forward one, and something more rounded/malty all of them solid. No weird aftertastes. Just well made beer that actually pairs with the food. The atmosphere is a big plus. The space has good energy, a lot of strong artwork and murals, and feels cultural instead of a corporate knock off like something that isn't authentic. It's comfortable, social, and doesn't feel forced or fake. The wait on the food wasn't too long. We got good food in about 5-10 minutes. Good food, good beer, good space. Easy place to come back to.

Decided to give Xicha a try this week. Ordered their two taco doblado and cerveza special. The…read moredark beer was not very good and the doblado was mediocre. Also the Resturant was dirty. Many tables were not cleaned and they were not very busy. So maybe short staffed? Overall not impressed, especially with so many better choices in Salem.

Food varies upon the featured food trucks. While there, friends enjoyed sharing a supreme pizza. Amidst the multiple drink options, there were only two canned non-alcoholic brews to choose from. Unfortunate as the climate of sobriety continues to gain popularity. The featured musician was outstanding, but I think the lack of acoustic sound proofing, mood lighting, and loud talkers distracted from his performance. There should be some sort of separation of those there to enjoy the music and others there to visit out of respect for the performer. Additionally, the poster misspelled his name and had no address (I ended up at another location). Small but notable gaffes.

The coin machines were in a room and honestly, there was not a lot of space. I was constantly being bumped into while trying to play a game. There are a mix of older arcade and newer games. I thought 50 cents for the old school games was a little much but can understand businesses need to make money. There's an ATM where you can withdraw money and there is also a machine where you can exchange cash for quarters. Overall, I would definitely come back here but think that if groups of 10+ are coming, then reservations should be made in order for it to not be so crowded.
