" Dire Wolf Tavern was a delightful surprise! As a food lover, I was thrilled by the variety on the menu. We started with the calamari, which was perfectly cooked—crispy and flavorful. I ordered the steak tips as my main, and they were cooked to perfection, tender and juicy. For dessert, the apple crisp was a standout; the combination with vanilla ice cream was heavenly. Overall, I left feeling satisfied and can't wait to recommend this place to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dire Wolf Tavern was the perfect spot to unwind after exploring Salem. The food was fantastic—our table had sliders, sushi, and even some specialty cocktails. The freshness of the sushi impressed us, and the staff's friendliness contributed to a cozy experience. Good ambiance, coupled with decent portions made it even better. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant to friends visiting the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Was excited after reading the reviews but was a little disappointed with my experience. The atmosphere was great, and the staff was nice, but my food was mediocre. I had a burger that didn't have much flavor, and the fries were too oily. The beers were well-crafted, though! I'm torn on whether to give it another try someday because my friends really liked their meals. " (*Curated Review*)

" We stopped by Dire Wolf after a long day of exploring Salem. My partner ordered the salmon sushi roll while I opted for the Korean chicken wings. The food was excellent but overwhelmed by the buzzing atmosphere, which made conversation difficult. The service was friendly but a bit slow at times. Overall, an enjoyable dining experience with top-notch food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic food and excellent staff! We shared a variety of dishes including the crispy calamari and fish tacos. The tacos were a little underwhelming, but the calamari was to die for! Also, the drinks were wonderfully strong and refreshing. While the food came a bit slowly, the overall experience was pleasant due to the nice ambiance. Will eventually return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great atmosphere and beverages! My drink was experimental and super tasty! Tried the nachos to start, they were worth it; however, the chicken was a bit dry. The tacos I had for my main course were good but could have used a bit more seasoning. Service was polite and attentive. Really enjoyed the experience and looking forward to returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had the chance to grab a meal after a long day of sightseeing in Salem. The Dire Wolf Tavern did not disappoint! The staff gave an enthusiastic welcome, and we were seated promptly. We ordered the poutine, which was drool-worthy! For the main course, I went with the fish and chips—so good! The batter was perfectly crispy. I would absolutely recommend this place if you’re in town! " (*Curated Review*)
