Reviews for Olde Salem Cafe in Hanover Park, IL
Great German food! My father had Leberkaese, which is very hard to find made so tasty and authentically. My mom had Haxen, also... made in true German fashion. Also, the decorations were inviting and service was very friendly. Note: it was a bit warminside. Read more

Got a good deal on local flavor so thought I'd try it out. If you're using the local flavor deal, you need to use the whole... amount pretax so be ready for some leftovers. Not a bad little place. I tried their bacon cheese burger on their pretzel bunand their pretzel stocks. The burger was OK, nothing special but the fries were good. Fries were fresh cut, crispy and justthe right amount of salt. Pretzel sticks were good but the cheese sauce was meh. The vanilla cake was good as well. Read more

We ate here, Sunday mid-afternoon, and enjoyed a peaceful dining experience. It's a nice spot, for a very tasty homemade German... meal, along with imported German beers. The service was quick and friendly. The cafe offers live-music, during the more populardining-times, as well. We'll certainly eat here, again! Read more
