Best Restaurants for Business Meals in Salem

Lobster Thermidor and wedge salad were excellent. Recommend reserving at the counter overlooking food prep area as they give a couple free goodies if you sit there. Also, if you stay at the Pfister Hotel, you don’t even need to go outside to access the restaurant.

What a wonderful experience on Christmas Day to come for the brunch spread! Some of the best Prime Rib I have ever had! Loved the Brussel Sprouts preparation and the barley salad! The apple cider zero proof cocktail was perfect! Tre Rivali has never disappointed us!

Kate’s service was fantastic. The timing of each course was perfect. We were never rushed but the pace was efficient which is important with starving teenage boys. The hangar steak, salmon and coq au vin were excellent. The ribeyes and filets were good. I love the festive and lively atmosphere but it was a bit loud for grandpa. Can't wait to return.

First of all I must compliment our server, Samantha L., she was delightful. She gave us the specials & also the history on the Harbor Burger. I must confess we are not big fans of seafood & since it was lunch time ordered the burgers—they were awesome along with the fries. We love looking out at the Lake Michigan.

Overall wonderful experience for a party of 11. Zarletti had a table set up for us in our own private-ish space in the back of the restaurant. We had our own server who was very good and stayed on top of all of our multiple requests. The food was OUTSTANDING. We ordered appetizers for the table, individual entrees with soup or salad, and desserts to share, plus drinks and wine. As a big group we ordered some of everything and it was all was great. The Ossobuco was to die for, the fish dishes, veal, and chicken were amazing, and the pasta was fresh and sooooo flavorful. Most plates at the table were eaten completely clean. Larger groups are required to sign a contract and spend a minimum amount per person ... and we, even in our total joy of eating, we did not meet the required minimum ... however, we were able to have the amount up to the contracted minimum not spent put on a gift certificate for future use. Don't worry about the contract. One small note, we ordered champagne to have with our appetizers and to make a celebratory toast. The champagne was uncorked and let sit AND the glasses used to serve it were large wine glasses. It had lost most of its bubbles very quickly with the uncorking early and pour into the large glasses ... it was still delicious but just not as festive and fun. Champagne should be served in a way that preserves its bubbles. We will return, in smaller groups.
