The Old Fish House Bar and Grill
We saved the best for last without even knowing it. We have been to just about every restaurant in the area and on our final night in town we decided to try the Old Fish House and we were blown away by the food. Service was amazing, the location and atmosphere is hard to beat and the food was actually incredible. There are a lot of places in town with a similar feel to them but the food is what makes this place a must visit. Had the catch of the day (grouper cheeks) and the red snapper... both were amazing but I'll be back just for the snapper. If I could visit just one restaurant in the area every time I'm here, it's going to be this place.
Visiting friends and they brought me where! Great choice . Had the mussels and the fried green tomato stack. I have eaten fried green tomatoes before , many times ,This is by far the best I have ever had they were not bitter , the combination of the cheese , balsamic vinegar ,bacon and banana peppers is out of this world . The hush puppies were overcooked, but were still delicious. Get extra guava butter to put on them , you will not regret it.
China Gourmet
It’s still so hard to rate Chinese food after eating at Kwan’s for so many years, but China Gourmet is a wonderful hidden gem in north central Salem. The service is great and the restaurant is cozy yet small. The food is delicious and flavorful and was fresh and hot. Pot Stickers were amazing. So was the Kung Poa Chicken and the Garlic Sauce Chicken. BBQ Pork fried rice was as expected and we will try a different fried rice next time.
I've been coming to this great little place since about 2014. The flavor and the tastes have not changed. The first time I came I pulled into the parking lot and thought to myself. I don't know if I want to stay, but I am so glad I did. I've eaten a lot of Chinese food all over the place and I have to say that when I come to Salem this is the only place I will eat if I'm hungry for Chinese. The staff are very friendly. The outside doesn't look like much, but inside is a very warm and inviting atmosphere. Nice tables. Nice lighting chopsticks on the table and the food is exceptional the sauces are thick and have loads of flavor. Also the portions are huge. The vegetables here are always fresh, never frozen. I don't believe I've ever had anything here that I didn't absolutely love. As you can tell by the photos it's always done hot and fresh and if you can't eat it all ,not a problem Take it home and warm it up later. It'll be just as good. Most everyone that we see there usually takes home a box... I usually get beef and something. The beef is always tender never cuts with a fork and as I said the vegetables are crisp and very good. If you're in Salem or close and you want to eat some of the best Chinese food, stop into China gourmet...
