   Let me start by saying that we ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE. Ledger is our go to place for special occasions, and we will continue to be back. On this visit however, there were a few minor issues that we haven't previously experienced here. The Popovers, an absolute must everytime we come, were a touch overcooked and tasted it. Also the cocktails at $15 a pop shouldn't be 80% ice in my opinion. And while I understand that this place features the grill on the kitchen, the vegetable medley on my chicken entree had several pieces of delecata squash that were beyond a good char. As mentioned, I'm sure this is a "one off" experience, as nothing like this has ever happened before, but I believe in honest feedback as a way to grow and improve, not necessarily just to be critical. I've appreciated this place for the better part of the last 7 or 8 years, and know that everything can't be perfect everytime, no matter how hard we try. Chef Daniel, and this culinary team are very skilled (there's a reason he was previously nominated for a James Beard award), and the FOH staff is always attentive and welcoming!

   Our experience at this establishment was nothing short of exceptional. The cuisine was great, with each dish crafted to perfection. The cocktails were masterfully balanced, offering a delightful complement to the meal. The popovers at the start were an absolute highlight, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. My mushroom pasta was simply outstanding—every bite reminiscent of, if not surpassing, the flavors I’ve enjoyed in Italy. The ambiance was equally impressive, creating the perfect setting for a memorable evening. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone seeking an extraordinary culinary experience.

   Unreal food! We ate her for Valentine’s Day and every part of the experience was fantastic. The wine pairings were a great addition and paired beautifully with each course.

    An elegant dining experience in Salem. #1 positive was our outstanding server and her assistants. They kept their eyes on us discretely and knew exactly when to approach. Very helpful and charming. Definitely deserved a 25% tip based on entire cost. Food was absolutely terrific, with one exception. Two of us shared popovers, arugula salad, and half chicken. Truly delicious and plenty of food for a hungry couple. We also ordered the duck onion soup. Fortunately, we were too full to need it. It was greasy. It didn't have any duck confit. Tasted foul, to be honest. That one "miss" didn't spoil a terrific evening. Great decor snd atmosphere. Pretty noisy, but not unbearable. We'll be back. Try the restaurant - you'll love it.
