Lively Station - Salem

My first dining experience at this restaurant was not just good, but truly amazing. The service by Darrell was excellent and the food, including the Hatch Burger and Fries I ordered and the Reuben Sandwich my fiancé had, was fantastic. The spiral fries were also a hit. I highly recommend this place!

The Logan brothers are certainly skilled at preparing delicious dishes.

I recommend sitting in the bar area for a better experience, as the main dining area can feel like a cafeteria. The bartender or waiter was very loud, which made things a bit awkward, but he was friendly. He seemed overwhelmed trying to make all the drinks and attend to all the tables. My boyfriend really enjoyed his steak sandwich and was all smiles, while my mushroom burger was decent but a little dry. The fries were delicious. I was happy to see they offer tasty non-alcoholic cocktails. Despite the mixed experience, I would definitely consider returning to this restaurant.

Such a cute neighborhood place. Love the casual friendly vibe. Lively elevates dining out in a relaxed but upscale environment. Love bringing friends here.Make a reservation!!

Took my family here for the first time since moving to salem from pdx.AMAZING service. Each of us adored the server we had today, although I can’t remember his name.He was very educated on the beverages offered, attentive to my gluten allergy, really cared about his job, and it all showed. Best service we have had in a very long time anywhere.They forgot my gluten free bun at first, but that was no biggie, they brought a fresh bun AND a huge slab of a rice krispy treat for me on the house because they felt bad!Just amazing amazing will recommend forever and make this a frequent place to visit. ?? Love the gluten free options, it’s all so easy to read on the menu.Also the best mocktail I have ever had. This place is IT.
