    Large roast beef combo with onion rings
    Jenn S.

    The number of times I've *almost* visited a Kelly's is ridiculous! Finally, this week I went to the Salem NH location. I ordered the large roast beef combo meal with cheese, onions, bbq sauce, and yellow mustard. I chose onion rings for my side and as I was dining in, used the Coca-Cola Freestyle machine for my fountain drink. The dining room was very clean, and had many windows for good lighting. It did, however, feel a little cold. They have quite a lot of indoor seating with a good number of booths along the windows. Tables with chairs filled the center of the dining room. I saw they also set up umbrella tables outside for warmer months. The person who took the order gave a standup with a number to identify me with my order and bring it directly to the table which was nice. I do t mind being called up to take my food at the counter, but it was a nice touch to be able to just relax and wait. It was a reasonable wait time of about 5 minutes. The sandwich came on a grilled sesame bulkie roll. The meat was warmed but not hot, so my cheese was not melted much, although it softened up as I ate. There was a generous portion of meat on there. I really enjoyed it, very tasty tender roast beef and a definite pink medium roast on it, exactly what I like. I thought the James River barbecue sauce was a great flavor with everything. I enjoyed the onion rings a lot, they are a light and crispy breading style. (I think the breading is partially made with cornmeal.) They did not need anything but a small bit of added salt. Very fresh and crispy crunchy with good solid sweet onions inside. Not too thick and not too thin. I'd go back, but I don't dine out much anymore because of the cost of doing so. The roast beef combo meal was ~ $15. So better than a sit down meal or even many fast food combo meals! They do have a drive-through pick up option, if you don't have the time to go in and sit.

    My family recently took a visit to this location. I've been to most of their other locations before. This time, I downloaded their app for rewards ahead of time. The drive thru was smooth and the staff members were so friendly! I ordered two sandwiches, fries, onion rings, chicken fingers and the fried shrimp. We loved the food! My husband likes the meat well done and it was the first time we tried it like this here. Everyone was happy! The only thing that we didn't love was the quality of the onion rings. They were overcooked and didn't taste that great. It was a fluke since everything else was fried so well.

    Plenty of handicap parking (5 I think)

    It has been quite a long time since I sunk my teeth into a Kelly's roast beef sandwich. Glad I have this spot as an option when I'm in the area. There was a short line to order when we arrived. This gave us time to read through the menu. I am surprised by all the additional menu items. Kelly's original location at Revere Beach was roast beef sandwiches, fries, onion rings, fried seafood and soft drinks. That was it, and it was the bomb. Those seagulls love them some Kelly's fries. The line did not move very quickly so be patient. After paying we were given a table number and cup. To use the freestyle machine tap the screen for the drink menu - there are many options- tap your preferred beverage and a new menu appears offering the option to add flavored syrups to your soft drink (vanilla, cherry, lime, etc) The food arrived quickly. These large roast beef sandwiches are quite large. We always eat them plain w/just a little salt. The roast beef is tasty and very lean. The sesame bun is toasted. Our side of onion rings could have stayed in the fryer a little longer, but they were good. Arriving unsalted in a paper bag we added a few salt packets and gave the bag a shake. Salt, pepper, ketchup, additional napkins and straws are located near the soda machines. Our table needed to be cleaned when we arrived, and we cleaned it again and thew away our trash when we left. Once the rush was over a team member came around and washed down the tables. Restrooms are near the cashier, both clean. Ladies has two stalls and a baby changing station. Plenty of parking and they have a drive thru. The parking lot is not attached to the Market Basket lot next door, but there is a pedestrian bridge between the two if you find yourself in the wrong lot.

    sorry not the great picture but... OMG!! Kelly's Roast Beef never disappoint! I did the slider combo with onion rings and I just couldn't resist. The onion rings were perfect and the slider was so full of roast beef.

    Terrible clam plate. I'm not a fan. The clams were old, the bellies had no flavor and no texture. The rest was rubbery, greasy and flavorless. The batter was no better than wonder bread. The fries were also terrible. They had no potato taste, were overly salty, stale and greasy. The onion rings were 50/50. The ones that were not burned were good. No cole slaw available. They should change their cooking oil way more frequently. I threw half the plate away rather than eat it and get sick.

    Kelly's extra large, jumbo shrimp. $15 they were 41/50s at best.

    I will never again visit a Kelly's location. They have fallen so far. I have never ordered a seafood combo plate and come away still hungry. I got whole belly clams n scallops w onion rings it was 33.50. It came out with 6 clams 6 scallops and a handful of onion rings. The clams n onion rings were good but the style of rings has changed. My scallops were burnt. The scallop was good but left a burnt after taste. When I complained they said everything is cooked on a timer. The replacement 4 were still dark but without the burnt after. Wife got shrimp they advertised xtra large jumbo shrimp we received 41/50s med shrimp. Since I was still hungry, I chopped off the charred coating to get to the scallop..

    Ambiance Service…read more Food This place was such a wonderful surprise! Little restaurant in a little town...big time winner! It's so cute, great for a date night or dinner with friends. The service was good. A touch slow on drinks and I think our server forgot to put in one of our meals...it came out quite a while after the rest of the dishes. She was such a sweetheart though and they squeezed us in when they were really busy, so I couldn't dock a star for that because everything else was amazing. The drinks were delicious. The FOOD! Oh my gosh, it was all SO GOOD! Calamari, steak tips, chicken, eggplant lasagna, gyro and baked scallops were all winners. The scallops though! I could go on and on about how wonderful the food was. We will definitely be back and recommending it to anyone who will listen!

    Everything about Kelari brings me back home in Greece, where I was born and raised. The hospitality…read more(philoxenia), the food, the service and the vibe, are as Greek as it gets. A place to decompress, and have an amazing dining experience, every time. The owners take pride of their restaurant and it shows in every detail. From the garnish on the drinks and the decorations, to the presentation of the dishes. The bar staff makes you feel like a regular, even if you walked in for the first time. The servers and host staff are always attentive and ready to help. Highly recommended!!!!

    Mother's day reservations were all booked but they were accepting walk-in's at the high tops. Well…read moreone hostess said they weren't but I told her 5 minutes prior I was told this by her colleague so she asked and was told by the manager "yes at a high top"....awkward but that's ok. We sat and were greeted by our server, she was nice and attentive despite being busy. I ordered a glass of the May Rosé special, and my mom got a nonalcoholic rosé. We both liked ours. Then we split the crab cake appetizer which we liked, although small...one piece for almost $20. We also were brought bread which was tasty paired with an olive oil mix. I ordered the butternut squash ravioli. There were only 6 of them but a good size, I opted out of a protein since they were a little pricey. I loved my meal, the sauce was creamy and paired nicely with the filling of the raviolis. My mom ordered the scallops that came with a lobster risotto. She liked hers as well and the scallops were a pretty good size. I will say the food was good and the overall experience was enjoyable despite having a high top even when I expressed to the host and manager it would be uncomfortable for my mother. We did see other moms receive a rose but my mom did not, I think only for the reserved tables and not any paying customer. Pricey but lovely inside and food quality was good just a little on the smaller side for portions. It's in a great location at the village so you can grab a bite to eat and walk around before or after. It made for a good Mother's Day meal.

    Valentines weekend To have pricing like a fine dining…read morerestaurant and then to just abandon all fine dining etiquette is an insult to the $375 bill for 2. This is truck stop small town dinner behavior. Which I love but my bill is also 27.50 at a place like that including drinks. Even Dunkin employees can not have personal beverages on the floor.... Let's keep it classy and sanitary.
