The interior is warm and welcoming with wood accents. Seated in a booth in the bar area we settled in and ordered some drinks. I got my usual tequila soda, my husband wanted a chocolate martini, and my sister in law decided on a French martini, something that my husband likes to get and she decided to try. The drinks were very good! The entrees we chose were the baby back ribs, a "classic burger", and the chicken Marsala. Everything we tried was delicious! The ribs were a very large portion and cooked to fall-off-the-bone perfection. My burger was very tasty and came with the biggest onion rings ever. So good! The chicken Marsala was as good as any ever eaten in any "Little Italy" . The server was very prompt and efficient. As a matter of fact, the staff all seemed to be relaxed and were working like a well oiled machine. We had a great experience and hope to return there whenever we are back in the Boston area.

My one complaint is that I have had one server the last 2 times I went there and she really brings down the whole atmosphere of the place. I believe her name is Alex. She has zero personality and when I asked her about something that was wrong she accused me of ordering incorrectly. She is very direct and not personable at all. She doesn't make you feel welcome. If I get her as a server again when I go back I will leave. I really wish the owners would see this review and do something about her. She totally brings down the vibe of my favorite restaurant.

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.

Food was solid and the drinks were on point. Everything came out pretty quick and most of the staff was friendly. Only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars: the vibe was a little creepy (which I know is kind of the point in Salem lol), and the boy who seated us was honestly pretty rude and made the first impression weird. That said, I'd still go back because the food/drinks and overall atmosphere are worth it -- just hoping the service/hosting is better next time.
