We came in for dinner and had really tasty wings, smashed burgers, and a few drinks. The atmosphere was casual so we were able to hold conversations, relax, and just enjoy our meal together. The food came out in a timely manner without any problems. Our server, Chloe, was super friendly and helpful. The manager, Murph, also checked in with us and even gave us a quick history of the Salem Santa/Tree lighting happenings, when we wondered about the hoard of people wandering by outside. Overall, it was a comfortable, no-hassle dining experience.

Arrived at the Counter 10 minutes before reservation with two business clients to find it totally empty. After a few minute wait with no one to greet us I went to the Hotel Salem concierge desk. I was told the Counter was not open yet and service on the rooftop did not begin until 12:00. I showed the concierge my three texts verifying my 10:00 reservation and he apologized and stated he would inform the powers that be this “computer error”. Of course, I was embarrassed and wasted time with my clients. As of yet, I have not heard from anyone and feel angered at how they wasted my time.
