Best Fun Restaurants in Salem

We had an awesome experience at DanDan! Service was wonderful, every staff member was kind and warm. Food was so delicious. We had the dandan noodles of course, but also the market vegetables which that day happened to be broccoli in a mussel sauce, shrimp fried rice and beef chow fun. Things were served family style which our server let us know right away. It was great because our party of 4 could try everything. Would definitely come back. Also book a reservation in advance, we overheard a walk-in being told it might be a long wait.

This was an incredibly delicious meal! Definitely will be back. My only issue was that there were a lot of bones in the trout that we had. Other than that, everything had amazing flavor and texture components! Super delicious!

1st time dining, visiting from Chicago, family of 5 (kids 15, 13 and 13). Was concerned that the food would be average since the unique theme sells itself. Really enjoyed the “Bond Mi”—-brisket Vietnamese style. And as simple as cheese curds and pretzel bites seem, they were cooked perfectly—sauces were delicious! We enjoyed our time as private investigators after dinner. Highly recommend!

Awesome experience! Atmosphere reads fun and prices are reasonable. Love that they can accommodate large parties.

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.
