Jacko's Corner Shoppe

Great local place. Authentic food with a slant toward Indian flavors that pop. Well worth it. You won't find much better out here in a small town in the hills

A little gem on the corner of Main St. and Broadway in Salem, NY. This restaurant offers delightful small plates and desserts, as well as an excellent selection of beer and wine. As soon as we sat down, the attentive staff had water at our table, and at the ready to answer any questions about the menu. We opted for the charcuterie board and a selection of handpies. The handpies were absolutely delicious, and we especially enjoyed the green dipping sauce that came with it. The charcuterie board was a perfect accompaniment. For dessert, my peanut butter bomb was literally the bomb! Really, really good! I'm definitely looking forward to visiting again.

A classic ice cream parlor/candy shop converted into a local foods, small-plate community bistro. Really fun atmosphere. Very tasty, surprising dishes. Ask for the garlic popcorn with your craft beer. I had BBQ chicken sliders, my spouse enjoyed Salmon Tartine, and we shared a marvelous chocolate cake with local Battenkill ice cream. Every bite delicious. Left with wallet still intact. Try it!

Delicious brunch this morning! Both of us LOVED our meals.

Yummy breakfast sandwich and a sleepy girl mocktail, Kennedi is awesome!! :))

Seems to be under new ownership. We visited Salem and this was recommended to us and we absolutely loved it! they have small tapas like plates - great for sharing while having wine and drinks. Cheese plates had local cheeses that were top notch! Everyone was super friendly and it was a true neighbor spot to feel welcome at! Walking distance to the Salem Art Works and all the local shops. Can’t wait to stop in again and see what they add to the menu! Brunch is on my mind!

Salem is lucky to have this warm, convivial restaurant in town. I had salmon the last time I was there, and it was moist, not rubbery, with a smooth pomegranate glaze that lifted the dish out of the ordinary and expected fare. It was accompanied by a mixed salad studded with pistachios which gave it an unexpected crunch. The salad came with a delicious dressing. When I asked the owner what it was he said he "had just whipped it on the fly" which perfectly captures the spirit of Jacko's - delicious, informal, and surprising.

Had dinner here last night. It was vegan night - and I'm not a vegan, but it was delicious. I had the Stuffed Acorn Squash: highly recommend! I ate every last bite. It was also special event with some memoirs being read. All in all, a great atmosphere, yummy food, and a chill vibe!

My parents and I enjoyed a Saturday brunch here a few weeks back. I got the Signature Eggs, my dad got the Breakfast BLT and Sleepy Girl Mocktail, and my mom got the Breakfast Burrito. I am not a huge fan of brunch (usually) because it is often greasy. But Jacko’s dishes were so fresh, and this was one of the best brunches I’ve had in YEARS! My Signature Eggs were perfectly poached and the flavors blended together beautifully. I tried a bite of the BLT and of the Burrito— both balanced, fresh, and delicious. I also tried several sips of the Sleepy Girl Mocktail. It was so good that I really should have ordered one of my own. On top of the great food, the building is beautiful, and our server was very helpful and very patient. The owner was very nice to talk with and shared some of the history of the building with my folks. Salem is lucky to have this gem of a restaurant! I am excited to come back for another serving. This time I’ll have to get the famous Chicken65!

Dinner last night was DELICIOUS! The meatballs were incredible, followed up with warm spiced rice pudding. Such a treat! The pianist added to the calming atmosphere and even took requests. Just an all around perfect night! Thank you Jacko’s!

Jacko's catered our office Holiday party. The food was outstanding! We had Butter chicken, vegetable Korma, Chana Masala and a delicious festive winter salad. They delivered and setup everything for us. We would definitely recommend Jacko's to anyone!

We absolutely love Jacko's,!! The open mic nights, the board game nights, live music - all super fun. The atmosphere is very upbeat and the staff is super accommodating. Not to mention how they are always open to new menu ideas and given our dietary restrictions, that speaks volumes as to the type of business they are. We've been going there since they opened and will continue to support the good people who run this establishment. Small business rules :)

Jacko's is a pleasant surprise. The menu has more choices than I expected and I look forward to returning to try more things. The staff is a bit thin for a busy theater night, but they are very nice and took the time to help us order.

Jacko's is the place to be in Salem! We've visited many times as a family (there's comfy seating and tables to play the fun games they provide AND coloring books!). We've also visited as adults to enjoy their extensive collection of beers/wines/ciders, YUM! Their drink and food selections are thoughtfully prepared and presented. The private events we've attended were EXCEPTIONAL from the food to the service, warm and welcoming ALWAYS! Brought my youngest daughter on a mommy/daughter dinner date and she asks to go back often. Thrilled to share fond memories at such a gem in our sweet little town. Thank you Jacko's !!

My friend from Illinois and I fell in love with Jacko’s Corner. We recently went there for the first time. The ambiance, the food and the warmth of all who work there was exceptional. Enjoyed the live music so much. I felt I was invited into your home. The presentation of food was impressive & delicious. We decided to have dessert, which we don’t normally do. It was to die for. Some frozen delight with chocolate & peanut butter. We'll be back!

I went this past night to dine at Jacko's Corner and I just wanted to give the restaurant some constructive feedback on three things: 1) The Smoked Salmon Tartine is a very small portion to be a considered and priced as a Main dish, it would be much more adequate if it was an appetizer, especially the amount of smoked salmon served. 2) There was live music going on when I was there and even though the singer and the music choice were really good, the sound was way too loud for the size of the space. I literally could not hear what the people sitting beside me were saying, and one of the people who were with us even put on ear plugs to be able to stay at the restaurant. 3) We made a reservation a week ahead of time, but when we got there staff said they couldn't find it and that our table had already been reserved to another large group. That resulted into an uncomfortable and delicate situation where, while we were waiting for our food, the other group arrived and had to wait at a table behind us, as the other nearby table became available so they could merge.

We arrived at this restaurant after viewing the website with its beautiful photos of a delicious array of foods, and were handed a menu with 6 types of pizza. This might have been ok except a member of our group has Celiac and they did not have gluten free crust. We had to leave because GF options were insufficient for our needs. If you have a rotating menu, or if (as we found 2 days later) you only post updated menu info on Facebook, you need to reflect this info on your website.

I was really excited to try this place. I made a reservation for Sunday brunch, when my friend and I showed up at 11:30 the place was closed. Wish we would have known they weren’t going to be open before we drove an hour to get there.
