Our friendly server greeted us right away, took our drink order and then took our meal order when she brought our drinks within a few minutes of being seated. It was hard to decide what to get but my friend got the Irish Benny and I got the very generous sized special French toast that was listed that day with a delicious whipped cream topping and strawberries. Both were ample portions, cooked to perfection, very tasty, and arrived pretty quickly especially considering how busy they were! This was my 2nd visit and I will definitely make this a favorite destination having moved to Salem recently! I just wish I had remembered to take photos to share!

Okay, we've had a few amazing experiences here lately, so it was time for an updated review for…read moresure. The wings are amazing. We love the ones with everything on them. (Triple Threat?) We've had a few different kinds, and all of them have been perfect. The pizza every single time has been fantastic. The crust is so good, it's not greasy or soggy, and it tastes fresh and really perfect. The burgers and fries are really very good. The mozzarella sticks, though I could do without the stuff they sprinkle on top of them, are perfect. We've dined in and we've taken out. The dining in experience can be a bit loud, with a bustling bar and large parties of children and adults seated at tables, three or four tvs with all different sports going on, and music playing, but it smells so darned good in there, but you have to be in the mood for a crowd if you dine in during a busy time. When you do, the food is hot and fresh, and the beer for those who drink seems nice and cold. Pizza and beer. (Or no beer.) How excellent.

What we found to be a bit uninspiring where the suggestions offered as their most popular dishes. Often times you ask the server for suggestions. Though I wasn't planning on getting a burger it did come highly recommended. So I went with the Shed burger. The burger is pretty large and it comes loaded with toppings. It comes with red pastrami, caramelized onions cheese, and mustard on a roll. What it seemed to be was a frozen patty that was thrown on the grill. I might not be so critical if they didn't make that big of a deal out of it. Fairly tasteless and not juicy at all. Other recommendations we tried as well none of which were highly liked.

Orders were App was bang bang broccoli- great flavorful change pace from the typical bang bang cauliflower we find at a lot of places. One main was lobster roll on a gluten free bun. Side was sweet potato fries. My wife really enjoyed this dish. Second main was Korean Krispy Chicken side of tater tots. Chicken was cooked correctly and the sauce amazing. Drink was a non alcoholic Guinness. I loved and recommend this dish. Our server came back and checked on us regularly and offered dessert at the end. Now was it worth a $100 lunch after tip? Yes it is. Life is too short to not enjoy yourself. Now eat some great food.

You sit there for 30 minutes and you lose your appetite, causing the restaurant to lose money. Watched multiple people walk in and directly back out even with ample bar space. The food is some of the best I've had at the chain. Love the wings, feta dip, general tsos chicken, and burgers! Drinks and friendly conversation with bartenders is amazing! If you don't make a reservation, don't bother sitting anywhere but the bar. They have 6 hostesses on a given night and not a single one will greet you or act professional. Can't get an accurate wait time aside from "X number of people ahead of you". No communication that upper and lower level seating waits are different. At the end of the day, come here for the bar and decent food. Don't expect air conditioning or appropriate management.
