“Bruce and Dede do an outstanding job providing the best service possible no matter how busy it can get. I love seeing the staff every week and any of the locals that may be in there when I go. Great local café that 100% deserves a visit if you’re coming from out of town. Oh and they got the best scones/muffins you’ll ever have too ;)”
“35 Beach is worth a visit! In the old Beach Street location in Manchester-by-the-Sea. New owners completely remodeled inside, and it is fresh and welcoming. Food and service are excellent! I had not realized they served breakfast too, until yesterday when we stopped in - was excellent and happy to have such a nice breakfast spot back on Cape Ann...”
“Went here for dinner with my girlfriend. The food was really good! Service was decent (it was a little chilly in the restaurant) but as a whole -- it was a nice little place to grab a bite.”
“We were visiting Manchester by the sea and went to this restaurant for our first dinner, this did not disappoint whatsoever! First of all, the menu was amazing and had an exceptional amount of options. The ambiance was perfect with low music and lighting, great for families and couples on date nights! Service was pretty decent... we had a waitress who was training another one which was nice to see the work progress, overall they remembered everything and were very professional, kind, and knowledgeable.”
“My company has orders from here for over 4 months. They work very hard at their job. The manager does a great job. This place is spotless everywhere. Thank you for all your hard work.”
“Hailey was amazing food was amazing service from door to table was outstanding it was pricey but worth every penny and more I hope we come back when we visit Salem againKid-friendliness: They accommodated our 4yo and had no problem with our 10yo and other kids we had service was impeccable”
“My wife gets all the credit for introducing me to this restaurant. I didn't know what to expect, but definitely one of the best restaurants I've been to in Massachusetts. This place isn't just great food, but also extremely friendly staff. I unfortunately didn't think to take photos, but we got the whipped ricotta and shared the salad. I got the chicken dish and my wife the pasta. Everything was amazing. It does seem like the dishes are on a fairly frequent rotation so new dishes pop up unless I'm mistaken. Highly recommend trying this place out and make sure you get reservations as there is limited seating.”
“A small but very nice place. The food was wonderful and was nicely plated. we really enjoyed it a lot. was nice to see a menu that's a little different and interesting. the staff was really nice.”
“We held a Baby Shower at the Grove. It was just absolutely perfect. The food was amazing. The ambiance was just beautiful. Dayna and the team were accommodating and helpful.It rally was just lovely! Thank you”
“First time dining at Ledger tonight and we absolutely loved it. The food was wonderful (we both got the Cod special and it was incredible) and the servers were very friendly and accommodating. The martinis were very good. We sat at the bar and will definitely be back!”
“Lovely sushi restaurant, the fish was super fresh and tasty. The service was quick and the staff very knowledgeable. We'll be coming back as often as we can.”
“Delicious and unique ice cream flavors. Sophia accommodated our large party with friendly service. Small ice cream shop but still had plenty of seating. If I was a local I'd make multiple weekly trips!”
“When I stumbled upon Beantrust during one of my walks in Beverly, it was like discovering a hidden gem! From that moment on, it became my ultimate go-to spot for delicious cold brew coffee and amazing baked snacks. Their ham and cheese brioche is an absolute delight! But what truly sets Beantrust apart is Erik, the incredible owner. His enthusiasm is contagious, and his friendly demeanor makes every visit feel like a warm welcome. It's not every day you find someone so passionate about their craft and dedicated to creating a positive atmosphere for their customers. Beantrust is not just a café; it's an experience filled with excitement and genuine hospitality!”
“Pastries are delicious! We got the hazelnut buttercream, the pistachio (forget the name), pain au chocolat, and 6 macarons. Totaled around $35, which is expected for high quality pastries.The pain au chocolat was perfectly flaky and had a good amount of chocolate. My 1.5 year old loved it too. My husband loved the pistachio pastry. It was very light and fluffy. I loved the hazelnut buttercream, the flavor was so delicate yet so rich.The macarons we got were tiramisu, peppermint, rose, earl grey, lavender, and chocolate. I've only tasted the peppermint but it was delicious.We went around 4:30pm so not as much to choose from, probably because they were closing soon, but we were happy with our selections. We'll be back for sure when we are in the area.”
“Notch is everything you could want out of a brewery: excellent beer, delicious small bites, and plenty of space.Their beer is mostly German. I believe I had the afternoon Pils which was tasty and easy drinking.The service is incredibly friendly. At one point one of the gentleman walked past and ask if I wanted another beer when he saw it was empty. I've never had that happen at a brewery before.The food was excellent. I initially got the pretzel and my girlfriend got the pretzel bites. If I could've done it over, I would've just gotten the bites. The dip that it comes with was cheezy and it had bits of butter and I would come all the way back to Salem just for some more of that.We'll absolutely be back.”
“If I could give 10 stars I would. We have been going to A&D for months now and probably once a week on average. My 9yo son asks to eat there all the time. Why? Besides the food being delicious and just mouth watering (my favorite - the scallop tacos! every single time - not sure it's on the menu but ask for it!), but also because George & Nina and the rest of the crew take such amazing care of us. George is passionate about food, people and service. He lets us know when he has something delicious coming up on the menu so we can try it out. And if he feels something isn't right - he's not going to wait for you to say something.. he is very proactive! It truly feels like a family when we go in, we have such a great time :) Thanks George, keep up the amazing work, we are grateful for you.”
“This has been my favorite new spot since they opened. The ice coffee is amazing and the staff so warm and welcoming . I accidentally left my wallet there today and they found me and reached out to me. I’m so grateful they went above and beyond . 10/10 recommend them ❤️”
“Amazing! What can I say that these other 5 star reviews haven't said already? My wife and I went for our anniversary, but you don't need a special occasion to go. Just go for it! The dedication that Chef Sang Lee puts into each dish is life changing. What I love the most if that Chef gets the freshest fish right from Gloucester and New England. Keep it up! We look forward to our next visit.”
“Best Pizza I’ve had in town and the North Shore. Remind me Of the pizza in Italy. It’s definitely the closest you’re gonna get to pizza from Italy. The service is great as well.”
“My Fiance and I had a great time. Mary and Mark gave us great information on the history of the city. The diner also has the best home fries I have ever had; they were crispy and seasoned to perfection.”
“Spent Saturday for lunch and some great ? tasting beer here. Great staff knew there stuff. Talking to Mike and found out that they are now producing a dunkle german beer ? which we tried. We will be back for dunkle .Thanks Mike.”
“If I could give this place 6 stars I would. I love Thai food, and have pretty high expectations when it comes to Thai. Everything we ordered was better than I expected it to be. Definitely give this place a try if you haven't.”
“You have to reserve a table. We waited for 20 min before they asked us what we wanted. And what was frustrating was, the table next to us came ten minutes after us. Was asked what they would like before us.The food was excellent! The prices were more than fair.I’m glad I went and tried them.”
“I live 40 mins away and came to try the clam strips and scallops some of the best I've had in the north-shore. They give a good amount to. Pricey but worth it.”
“Great vibes, robust coffee selection, fun flavor add-ons, delicious toast menu (we had the avo toast and it was delish - can't wait to try the hummus toast). New fave coffee shop in the area for sure.”
“It’s a weird concept but pretty cool at the same time. Cookies are fun and really good but the vegan chocolate soft serve is absolutely insane. Oh and parking is a little nuts. Good luck with that.”
“Really good sandwiches. I got the only vegetarian option on the menu, but I'd definitely come back for another. If New Deal Fruit is a 10/10 (which I think it is), I think the sandwiches here are like a 9/10. I'll definitely be back.”
“Kind of a love hate thing here. Their food is good-great. Their coffee is amazing. Their wait staff is sometimes nice but also kind of like folks at a yoga studio. There is a lot going on here. The interior is cute. I can't decide if it is worth the general moodiness. But also, people get to have feelings. And it is a nice place.”
“I got the Chopper Cheese and it was by far the best steak sandwich I’ve had in a long time. Rich flavor, great quality steak, and a perfectly toasted bun. And the hand cut chips were perfect. I only had a brief interaction but they seem very friendly and the shop is cool. I can’t wait to go back.”
“Great pizza and a great place to go and take the family. We were the only ones in the restaurant today with the kids and the beer on tap was really good. Very fast service and ample parking. We will be stopping here next time we are in ”
