"Can we come back here tomorrow?" During our explorations of Salem, we decided to get out of the city to avoid a 3 hour wait... for the restaurants in the immediate area. Our friend works in the area and recommended that we come up to Ripple. I wasdisappointed in the fact that I wasn't able to get the advertised New England Poutine since they were out of Clam Chowder. Mysecond option of the scallop casserole did NOT disappoint though, with the topping being very uniquely spiced and felt like theperfect fall dish. The mashed potatoes were also wonderful with the rice being an acceptable compliment ( I would probably getdouble mashed next time). DO NOT go to Ripple without getting dessert. We were fully prepared not to get dessert, when wefound out that the owner prepared them personally herself on a daily basis. After we heard all of the options, we got all 4 ofthem and shared at our table and every one of them was a hit. Finally, we felt INCREDIBLY welcome in the restaurant, with theservice staff and clientele alike making the restaurant feel like dining at home with friends and family. Being members of theLGBTQ community, often times we feel a bit on the fringe when we dine out. This felt like home. I'll absolutely be back duringmy next visit to the area. Read more

I'm not an expert on Clam Chowder by ant means, but I know from the Chowder I've tried soo far. Thicker is better in my book. My... wife and I both choose Ripple's Chowder our favorite. The waitress Linda was very helpful and very nice. The owners are goodpeople that come out and say hello and talk. And it's on the water. ???????????? Read more

Our visit to this venue was such a fabulous experience that I have to share. First off the waiter was the best I've ever had.... Secondly, and most importantly, the food was truly excellent, from our drinks, right down to their "sliced" fries (and I'venever had fries like these you just have to try them to believe). Thirdly, the place is so clean, has outdoor seatingoverlooking the water, fresh lavatories, and to top it off the owners run the place. If you want a satisfying meal that isreasonably priced with lovely atmosphere and great service this is it... Read more
