Last week #JustJoey treated #BellisimoBecky to a couple of birthday gifts. It started with BBecky sitting for High Tea with some friends at Jolie Tea Company. That’s a nice way to start a day of celebration.
A little later the two of them ventured onto Settler for dinner. We’ll let Joey take the story from here.
“We went to Settler last night for Beki’s birthday and it was pretty great.
Great simple yet modern decor with the classic wood ceilings you are so often in Salem homes. Reminded me of the Neptune Oyster space downtown.
Food was incredible. They provided a complimentary “amuse bouche” of homemade cider and we ordered a bottle of sparkling Saratoga water.
Apps were the Charred Leek & Onion Labneh with pomegranate and olive oil, served with crostini bread. Then the Crispy Herb Falafel made of chickpeas, cilantro, parsley, and cumin, served with harissa aioli sauce.
We both had the Monkfish entree served with small fingerling potatoes, foraged mushrooms, and an herb butter sauce. Quite amazing.
We didn’t have dessert but they brought complimentary chocolate chip cookies at the end of the meal.

Only downside was they forgot to bring out the chocolate birthday cake/tart with a candle like I asked for, but at that point we didn’t want dessert and had chocolate covered strawberries at home.
Overall it’s definitely one of the best places to dine in Salem.”
