Rockmore Floating Restaurant
- Salem, USA
- Restaurants › Other
That’s right: floating. Set on a barge in the middle of Salem Harbor, this clam shack is the ultimate place to refuel on a hot summer day. Catch the free shuttle boat from the Congress St bridge, but don’t forget to tip the captain.

Old Spot
- Salem, USA
- Restaurants › Pub
It's pub food, to be sure, but so perfectly prepared that it becomes a dining experience – a meat pie with beef and lamb in a Guinness stew, a slow-roasted pork sammie where the pork melts in your mouth, irresistible sweet potato fries. Dim lighting and plush pillows make the place extra comfortable and cozy.

Country Kitchen
At lunchtime, this little yellow house often has a line out the door, which is testament to its tiny size, as well as its amazing sandwiches. The Thanksgiving sandwich is the hands-down favorite, with roasted turkey carved straight off the bird. They don't accept credit cards and there's no seating, save the picnic table out front.

Blue-Eyed Crab
There are a few tried-and-true seafood restaurants clustered around Town Wharf. But if you like a little innovation with your fish (and perhaps a cocktail or a glass of wine), head a bit further east to this fun and funky joint, with sea-blue walls and fish floating from the ceiling.
You can still get clam chowder and lobster rolls, but you can also try shrimp and bacon tacos, pan-seared scallop salad or a crispy crab burger.

Bella Verona
The striped awning and overflowing flower boxes are the perfect gateway into this romantic trattoria in the heart of Salem. Owner Giogio Manzana has brought the flavors from his home region (Verona, of course) and the results are delightful. Aside from the impeccable food and service, this place is cozy, ie crowded. Don't plan on discussing anything too private over your plates of pasta.

All-American Diner
You are here in America's Hometown, what better place to eat than the All-American Diner? It's a classic red-white-and-blue place, with a breakfast menu that reads like a novel. From corn-beef hash to eggs Benedict and amazing omelets, all of the breakfast items get rave reviews (especially the home fries). If you prefer lunch, try the Thanksgiving sandwich.

80 Thoreau
Understated and elegant, this modern restaurant is an anomaly in historic Concord – but that's a good thing. The menu – short but sweet – features deliciously unexpected combinations of flavors, mostly using seasonal, local ingredients. There's also a busy bar area, which offers a short selection of classic cocktails and long list of wines by the glass.

Hermanos Cocina Mexicana
Just off Main St in an unlikely historic brick building, Hermanos serves authentic and creative Mexican dishes, from pork taquitos (mini-tacos) to chimichangas (filled, deep-fried tortillas). Head to the upstairs bar for excellent margaritas and catch some live jazz (from 6.30pm to 9pm Sunday to Thursday).

Capitol Grille
This warm, inviting restaurant and bar has tasty pub fare, with a decent selection of sandwiches, soups and salads. The other specialty here is a juicy steak, hand-cut and aged in house. In the evening the lounge often hosts karaoke, live music, or less fussily a sporting event on TV.

55 Degrees
In a former silversmith’s shop, this elegant newcomer serves delectable cuisine amid exposed-brick walls trimmed with artwork and old-world touches. The menu features excellent cheeses, quinoa and roasted-walnut salad, seared sea-scallops, roasted duck and other tempting choices. It’s matched by a decent wine list.

Shaker Table
The Shaker Table at the Canterbury Shaker Village serves a lovely lunch and a sumptuous candlelight dinner. The menu changes seasonally, but it features regional specialties and organic produce from the garden on-site, not to mention sinful desserts. Dinner and brunch reservations are recommended. The Canterbury Shaker Village is 15 miles north of Concord on MA 106. Take I-93 to exit 18.

Will it be malted vanilla or chocolate pudding?

Emperor’s Garden
Emperor’s Garden (or Empire Garden, or whatever it is called) is one of a handful of places that are recommended for dim sum. This massive space was converted from an old theater, and now it is a vast dingy dining room that gets packed with Chinese patrons, feasting on pork buns and shrimp dumplings. If your Cantonese is not up to snuff, use the point-and-choose method (that’s what the carts are for).
