We go here for trivia a lot and love Brad, the host. Most of the staff are freaking awesome and that is what keeps us returning time and time again. I love their lemon drops, stoney fries, and hot chicken sandwich.

The beer and cider selection is great and the food and service are good, as well. The building is pretty nice, too. I think the biggest downside is that it's in a corner of a really busy intersection so there's noise and exhaust.

Was there for a networking event, and everything was amazing. We went on a Saturday afternoon. So, 4 stars only because we want more.

Worst burger ever! Overcooked and dried out. No wonder it took forever for the food to come, and there were hardly any people there. Both my daughter and I ordered the woods burger and we will both never forget how bad it was!

Waited over an hour for food. Finally just gave up. When were able to get the waiters attention the food suddenly was on its way out. Other people that sat down 30-40 min after us got their food shortly after ordering. They were busy but someone dropped the ball. Just own up to it. We have been there a couple times and totally underwhelmed. Last chance and they blew it. Won’t ever go back.

I've had a number of meals at Gilgamesh Campus over a period of many years. It's usually reliably decent 'pub food' - burgers, sandwiches, etc. This time I thought I'd try what they call 'Steelhead Fish and Chips.' It was a real disappointment. There were three sizable portions of battered, deep-fried fish. Two of them were very poorly cooked - drenched with oil under the batter. Obviously placed in the fryer before the oil was hot enough, soaking up oil. And of course, the third one was very nicely cooked... the last one I ate....

Outdoor patio was nice and relaxing. Something for everyone. Beer options were good, would appreciate some prices on drink menu. Would go back!

I will never come back again! We were waiting 20 minutes for somebody to take our order, during that time they didn't even offer us water and although I called the waitress, she ignored me so I had to get up to find someone to take us the order. Some time later, a dirty and disheveled guy arrived and finally took our order, but another 20 minutes passed without our food being brought to us and again I had to get up from my table "already very upset" to demand someone who was apparently the manager to served us and I was standing there in the middle of the place literally supervising them to do their job. When the food arrived and we tried "it was cold" which meant that the order had been processed and they forgot about it for 20 minutes.Anyway, the food is mediocre, the prices high and the service lousy, don't go there, don't ruin your afternoon by wasting time waiting and getting angry with people who don't care about their customers and the quality of the food.

I really liked the food and my son really liked his beer. The only thing I could say is it was way too slow getting our food. We waited 40 minutes. That's a bit long. And they weren't that busy at the time we came in. That would be. My only suggestion is that they cut down on the time it takes to get the food.

Great service, but appears their kitchen staff no longer knows how to prepare their signature entrees. Burger was over cooked, dry and tasteless. Fish and chips was oily and tasted very fishy. Hand cut fries were overcooked.
This place is pretty awesome. Our waiter was great, the hard cider was great (we didn't try the beer because we're not beer people), and the food was great as well! It was a Monday so I'm not sure what it's like when busy, but I was really pleased that there were no obnoxiously loud noises and we were able to have a conversation without having to raise our voices.

Delicious and fairly quick! We were seated fast, wasn’t too crowded, and I was very happy to learn that they have comfort foods like mac n cheese. I struggle a lot with going out to eat (and eating in general) due to sensory processing issues, so my diet is very limited. Me and my boyfriend have trouble finding places that we can BOTH enjoy food at, and we are excited that we’ve finally found one! He loved his smash burger and I loved my mac n cheese. Their fries are tasty, too, I tried a couple lol. I love that the location is in West Salem, we could use more restaurants here and less fast food places.Dietary restrictions: I have a lot of sensory problems and they were kind enough to alter the mac n cheese so I could eat it with no problem!

Excellent Gorgonzola burger and tasty fries. Nívea, the waitress, was wearing many hats but was able to provide efficient service.

This place was recommended to us by our son's workmates at the Elementary school. We LOVED it! Beer was fantastic, service was above and beyond and the food fit all of our needs ... meat eater, vegetarian and vegan ... and more. This was a great first night's stop in Salem. Thank you, Rex and crew!

Super cozy by the fire. This is a nice place for a casual date and a bite to eat. Erin was a great server. Food was delicious, all the staff were very attentive .My only suggestions... offer guests dessert and y'all could use some plants/ greenery maybe some cool macrame to give it a more woodsy feel in my opinion.
