Ledger is one of my favorite restaurants in Salem. I try to go at least once a month however I have back to back reservations this week to celebrate spooky season being over. Not only is the food always delicious and amazing quality the staff is always happy to serve you and very accommodating and welcoming. The spooky drink specials are always fun although it’s the Ledger Painkiller that gets my vote every time! My go to is either the burger, the pasta, or the half chicken but you can’t go wrong with anything and it’s a sin if you skip the popovers

My only complaint is that the restaurant was way too warm; it was an unusually warm fall day, I'm sure that's why. The food was excellent from beginning to start, the wine pairings were perfect for each course. The service was excellent with knowledgeable info shared about the food and each beverage pairing.
