Brothers Taverna Salem

I emailed Brothers Taverna in Salem asking if they used round or brisket in their Reuben. The exact answer was "The Ruben comes from brisket our chef cooks the corn beef daily".

The quarter an hour parking in the nearby parking garage is now gone. I did learn today that they have parking in the back.

The inside is nice and bright with a big bar and the open kitchen in the back,

I ordered the Reuben on Rye (12). "Lean corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, Russian dressing grilled on dark rye bread". What did I get? Sliced round of course. The extra dressing didn't make it. The sandwich that was griddled, not grilled, was warm, and the bread was toasted. The fries were excellent. The service was slow, very slow. The extra place settings were left untouched. My table was missing the salt shaker. A Yelp check-in gives you 20% off. They now have a Portuguese menu.
