Wandering around Salem on Mother's Day, we walked into Finz without a reservation and were told there was a 30-minute wait. We were called to a table in around 15 minutes, which was a first for us. Usually, a 30-minute wait really means 45 minutes. Finz sits on the water, and there's an outdoor patio area, but it was a... More

I recently went to Finz with my wife for our wedding anniversary. Saturday night and Finz was filled to capacity. Our waitress was pleasant and knowledgeable but slow to service our table. Cocktails were good but pricey. My meal, baked haddock , smashed potatoes and vegetable was presented and tasted like a home cooked meal. It was OK but not... More

Had lunch there recently; it was a nice day so we sat on the patio. The service was friendly and the food was really fresh and delicious. I split the lobster ravioli and the lobster roll with a friend. The lobster ravioli was so fresh and pure (not like some fillings that are mostly breadcrumbs). There were more chunks of... More

I had scallops which were fresh tasty and filling. My party had no complaints about any of the food served, and many of them had been coming here over and over. You've got to go if you are anywhere near Salem, even though there are a lot of good places around.

My husband and I were recently in Massachusetts to attend my niece's wedding, and happened upon Finz's on an outing to Salem. Wow! The food was amazing; in fact, it was the best seafood we had our entire trip. I had the Thai shrimp and my husband had blackened chicken on a tostada. The only complaint was the fact that... More

We sat on the deck and watched the boats. We split a chowder and a lobster roll, a little pricey but what you'd expect for dock side dining.

I had read the reviews on tripadvisor and was already looking forward to our visit. We visited for dinner and the place was packed so if you can, make reservations. However, we went into the bar which is huge and has tables. Our helpful hostess promptly had us our menus and our dinner drinks. The bar was busy and fun.... More

I enjoyed the nice atmosphere of Finz with our group of 18. We got our food fast and in healthy servings. The paella I ate was very good, with lots(!) of seafood but less rice than I've always had in paellas. Still, no complaints!

We spent a night in Salem and were in the mood for seafood. We went for a walk around the wharf, stopping in at the restaurants that ring it, and decided that Fyns looked like the best bet. The menu was a bit more adventurous than the typical New England fish restaurant venue, and we were excited about that. As... More
