The Colosseum - Salem

I ordered the scalapinna alla pizzaiola with ziti, and I recommend asking for it to be spicy. My dish came with a tomato sauce, but it could have used more flavor, so I suggest making it a bit spicier.

The service and dining experience here are outstanding. I've never had a bad meal at this restaurant. The kitchen even prepared a special dish for me that wasn't on the menu.

We had an excellent experience at the bar with outstanding service. The drinks were fantastic, and the meals were delicious.

This time it was disappointed. we have eaten several times in this restaurant and have always enjoyed a good meal and service. but not on the last Saturday nite. our reservation was for 18 clock, which is when we arrived. it was very crowded with many parties waiting. we sat at 6:20 o'clock. had no waitress until 6:40, when another waitress noticed that we didn't care. she took our whole order, drinks, appetizer and entrees. the appetizer and first round drinks came fast. after. downhill at 8:15 the waitress explained that the kitchen was very supported, but our eating would soon be out. about 20 minutes later. my man had the calfse that the waitress says it is why it took so long. we said to the waitress that it was too late that we both consume at this time; she offered us a pull-out box. the second round of the drinks came only after eating and the pull-out box and the calfse, which is the most expensive item on the menu, was extremely fat. we were very disappointed, and we understand that a restaurant is very busy, but it was treated very badly. we ordered dessert and a cup of coffee. they could have given us the house. could have gone a long way.

Nice table nice atmosphere Had spaghetti and a salad Salad returned because was basically lettuce and two tomato s and 2 few sprigs of onion cucumbers and what looked like iceberg Waiter was just ok Was o good overall first experience but not sure I would head back Lacked a lot of vegetarian options
