We ordered catering for our holiday party and it was amazing. The staff was incredible when I messed up the pick up time and still made it all happen for me. The food is high quality and tastes amazing. I've priced many different catering options in town and this is very affordable but much nicer than most local options.

This place was highly rated, and now I see why. We went on a Saturday, as one does, and went at about 12:30 p.m. The place was packed, which wasn't surprising, but there were just the two of us, so that worked out, and we were seated quickly. We ordered pretty quickly as well. There were many things to choose from, but we stuck with delicious sandwiches. They came with chips, which I believe are house-made. They were quick to refill our sodas there and we never wanted anything, despite the busyness of the place. They do catering here as well. It would be great to have something catered by them. I will come back here and try more of their offerings. It doesn't appear that they take reservations but another tip is that they have a counter so if it's just a couple of you that may be a way to go.

Best restaurant in Salem! Especially if you are looking for Soup and Salad! Great service and ambiance!

The food was amazing and the service was perfect. This place is always hopping, but carries a wonderful ambiance. Great quality of food. 10/10

Amazing food! I went here with my coworkers on a work trip and we all LOVED our food. I had the turkey dill & havarti sandwich and the curry soup, which were AMAZING. I could've eaten this again for dinner and still be happy. My coworkers had the pho soup and the pho dip, both were amazing as well. I tried the blueberry Italian Soda, which was just okay. I didn't end up finishing it. It does get busy during lunchtime, but we were lucky and didn't have to wait for a table. Our server was very nice and recommended some items for us when we asked. Would definitely visit again!

We were doing through and needed to grab lunch and wild pear came up on our search! Boy are we glad to have stopped!!! The chicken salad is a must have! So delicious. I also like that they offer a wide range of side options (with an up charge) as I don't always want French fries. My husband did get the fries and those were a pass. The dessert looked beautiful. We had a strawberry lemon cake and that was the saddest part of the lunch. The cake was soaked in milk? Like tres leches, but not because it was not good and not listed as being soaked. We will be back!

Still dreaming about the butternut squash soup from this place!! Everything on the menu looked delicious and everything we ordered was so good that I wish we lived closer to frequent more often. This is the perfect place to take people out of town or a stop for lunch during your road trip. It looked like it kept quite busy, but we were able to walk around the city during our 15 to 20 minute wait. There's only street parking but honestly, the city seems small enough that it shouldn't be an issue as long as you can walk around. Everyone on the staff was also super friendly and made sure we were taken care of!

I was visiting Salem for a half marathon and was struggling to find somewhere to eat as Salem seems to be a bit of a foodie desert. Ultimately I decided to try Wild Pear as it seemed warm and inviting when I was walking by. The dining area inside is intimate and they offer bar and outdoor seating as well. As I was dining alone, they asked if I was okay sitting at the bar, which I was. I started with their seasonal berry cooler cocktail, which was beautiful and delicious! It was almost too pretty to drink The menu had a good variety of enticing options, however I didn't want anything too heavy so I opted for the small Caesar salad. The salad was crisp, refreshing and not overly dressed. It was the perfect size for me, however they do offer a large size as well. The server was nice, but didn't check on me much, which is kind of odd for a bartender, especially as I was the only one at the bar most of my time there. She was also focused on figuring out a pay discrepancy on her check with the manager in front of me, which was a bit awkward. Overall this is a cute spot with good food and drink, so worth checking out if you are in downtown Salem.
