One was like a small popover. So good. I got fillet and hubby got burger and we split the onion strings which was just huge. Steak was perfectly seasoned and cooked. Just very good.

First off, the moment we walked in the door the whole vibe was spot on. It was actually snowing when we got there! Our server kicked ass and I wish I remembered his name because I only want to dine with him moving forward! He truly made the experience!!! All the food was good, Only missing Calamari from the menu - only downside... I cant think of one complaint, Maybe if I have to come up with one - Only one stall in the bathroom, LOL But the service, the food, the ambience was 100!!! The food was soo good, everything was fresh, the drinks were great! Will definitely add to the rotation of regular places, going to Daniellas next week next for my Birthday as we havent been there yet either! Cant wait!

The bar is quaint-only seats nine and the restaurant area is also small and cozy and completely full. Sheena was our bartender who made an excellent espresso martini and Cosmo. We started with their grilled octopus appetizer which was fresh and tender. I had their fried rabbit special and Michael had their haddock casserole which had shrimp and scallops in it. Our entrees came with two sides-I chose the garden salad and vegetable medley (carrots/broccoli) and my husband had their homemade potato chips which were awesome! All dishes were reasonably priced. We will definitely be back.

Michael and I sat at the bar this past Saturday and Rachel was our bartender. She was FANTASTIC!…read moreKind, polite, efficient and funny. I had their signature "mule" cocktail which was very yummy. My husband had a draft in which Rachel had to change the keg but she didn't seem annoyed by having to do this. We have gone to places where the bartender was too busy to change it out and told him to order a different beer. But not Rachel. She also brought us waters and bread without us having to ask for it. We shared the crab cake appetizer and the duck entree, which were well proportioned and delicious. The bar was cozy and I love the blue paint color and thankfully the Celtics were not playing that evening because the bar does not have a TV. So if you are looking for a quaint bar that does not offer TV, a bubbly bartender, scrumptious food, than 9 Elm is the place. :)

The chicken pieces were really small, and well done, so if you don't like that type of thing you would not like this. But everything else was awesome. One brother got the shrimp and pasta dish that came with a ziti, and when I took a bite, I knew that this was something I'd want to get next time. The other brother got a spicy shrimp appetizer as his meal, and I'm not a fan of spicy, but he said it was very good. This place is huge, and a really good place to go, especially if you have people with different tastes. The menu was quite large and has a big variety.

His recs were spot on - starting with the wine. For our appetizers, we had the oysters and the whipped ricotta. They were incredible!! For our main, we had dry aged ribeye special for two. Oh my god - that was to die for! The side salad and potatoes were equally amazing. All in all, an excellent night.

The service was incredibly friendly but there may have been some miscommunication because we got the opening welcome spiel from multiple servers - but that's okay! We got to hear multiple differing opinions on the menu. I ended up getting the oysters, chicken, and the potatoes, and honestly I'm conflicted. The oysters were great, well-dressed, clean, and delicious. The potatoes were absolutely fantastic. The chicken however... saying it was magical isn't exactly right but I have never had such a perfectly cooked chicken in my life. I did not know you could get such a crispy skin with such clear grill lines while keeping the white meat so utterly moist and delicious. I'm still not entirely convinced that witchcraft wasn't involved and given its Salem, have to assume that's what happened. Us normal people will never be able to make anything to that level of perfection. Definitely looking to go back.

What a great way to start lunch on a Sunday. I had my regular, which is the bbq chicken plate with steak fries and a garden salad with italian dressing. Like before, everything was great! I got the salad first. It was fresh, perfect size and the italian dressing is just like my Mother's growing up! It brings back those great memories. Soon after finishing the garden salad, I was quickly served my main dish of BBQ chicken with steak fries. The portion size is great. The grill master was right on again....cooked perfectly and the perfect chicken breast size. I took my time eating and watched some ESPN talking about March Madness and all the games coming up on the Sunday. It was a great place to be and a great lunch to have! I have been to Champions approx. 6-8 times and each time I visit I leave satisfied with the service, the price and of course, the food! What a spot! One thing that I need to try are the steak tips! I have heard the battle about who has the best tips but I cannot offer my opinion because I have never tried the Champions tips! I will and I will write them up when I get a chance. Price- awesome Parking- easy...the have a small lot and plenty of on the street parking Vibe- everyone is in a good mood Service- all of the staff hustles...they are always moving and available Would I come again? stupid question....of course!

You can still get great food here and have an amazing experience. But it's not automatic anymore…read more Families have come here as a special treat/event for over 40 years. Tonight went with some friends after work on a Saturday late like 9pm. Sat at a table in the bar area. The ambience and decor is very welcoming, very soothing. Waitress was attentive and in rhythm with our needs. Drinks were basic and easy. Beer and wine. House Chardonnay was palatable. One friend got a vodka martini with olives and seemed pleased. Prime Rib can be tricky. I tried. Got a smaller version and ordered it medium. I order various steaks different ways, based on the cut and the location. Everything from rare to well done. The prime rib came out raw and basically Un edible. I hate to and rarely send things back but I asked to have it cooked more. It came back really quickly and still raw. I told the waitress I would take it home and cook it or I would like an entirely different steak. I settled on a top sirloin and asked that it be well done. I figured they would scorch it, but it came out well done not overcooked and it was excellent. Glad I stayed with it. I had eaten my baked potato with butter prior and that held me over and was great. I also ordered a bowl of clam chowder as an appetizer which was also very good but on the cool side, not very hot. Surprisingly had the same experience with sister restaurant in Beverly "The Depot" where the clam chowder was well done but cool not hot. Great Prime Rib that day! This is not an inexpensive restaurant, so I want it to be epic every time. It is still nostalgic. Will try again in the not too far off future and hope to upgrade review to 5 stars....

The bartender we had was quick and friendly, and we liked the draft beer offerings and the mixed drinks. We were very happy with our food. We chose to share the apple cider donuts (starting the meal with dessert), which were just as advertised. Delicious. We also tried the buffalo wings and the breakfast burrito. Yum! Delightful flavors. Only reason for 4 of 5 stars is the bathrooms needed some cleanup. I imagine it's hard to keep up with crowd control, so I hand waved it overall but is an important detail that sometimes gets overlooked when you get busy. Also easy enough to correct. Regardless, we had a really good visit. I wouldn't hesitate to go back again.

I definitely want to go back and try again but my first experience there was a little lackluster. Service was really slow - but the staff recognized that and provided a free appetizer. The oysters were fine but one didn't taste fully right - but that happens all the time and is part of the risk of eating oysters. The food order was messed up - but the staff helped expedite service to correct it. The portions felt kind of small for the cost but with all of that said the food itself was good and I would definitely recommend it as a nice date spot, nice night out spot, etc. and like I said, hopefully I'll go back sometime soon and hopefully my experience was just an off night.

We had the Brandt steak and the pan-seared cod, and both dishes were excellent, easy 8+/10. The steak came out exactly medium rare as requested, nicely seasoned, and the potatoes were delicious. There was a bit too much chimichurri for my taste, but that's an easy fix by just scraping some off. The cod was also very good -- simple, well executed, and moist. The cocktail, beer, and especially wine options offered plenty of great choices. Overall, Ledger is a great pick for a nice dinner in Salem -- excellent food and a great setting. I'd definitely return.
