A good little hole in the wall find. Not a huge dining area. The food is classic yummy American comfort. I was there for breakfast. The server was friendly and attentive but not hovering. She kept the coffee filled, took the order, delivered it. She checked back to make sure all was good, refilled coffee and came back again to remove plates and asked if there was anything else, how was it etc. The interaction with her felt natural and unforced. It is very hard to find service like this. The food was well prepared just as expected and the portions were ample. Just note parking and tables are limited.

We've been going to Josey's for years. They have the best Belgian waffles in Salem, and their biscuits and flavorful gravy are perfect. The service is amazingly fast, even when it's busy. The ambiance is similar to going back to a vintage 60s diner. The menu options and prices are epic!

Good solid breakfast at a reasonable price. It's the classic diner experience. We have never been disappointed.

Don't let the humble building deceive you. The breakfast I ate here was so freaking delicious. I asked for over medium eggs. What I got were actual over medium eggs - not too runny and not to rubbery. The hash browns were hot , crispy, and perfectly seasoned. My waitperson was very attentive without being cloying. I will eat breakfast there if I make my way to Salem again.

Wow. I've been coming here for twelve years now. Twelve. YEARS. The quality is as good as ever. Unfortunately, due to the world, the portion sizes have gone down (the chicken fried steak fits neatly on the plate, not overlaps, and is just as thin) and is about twice the price. Eggs, toast, pancakes, hash browns, gravy, steak...all as good as ever. Decor is the same. Everything else is like it was. And I still like coming here for breakfast on a weekend.

I live around the way from this restaurant. I had been wanting to try it since I moved to the neighborhood. I was not disappointed. The food is good the service has been wonderful everytime we have gone. The prices are certainly reasonable. It is a great place to go for a quick Saturday morning meal!!

Top service. Fist time there and I will definitely be going back again! Clean good food and amazing service.

We decided to try this place out based on reviews, and it was close by. The menu prices were a tad higher than the current pictures. They were really busy when we showed at 11am on a Wednesday. The staff seem to have a great team approach. It was nice to see, although maybe a bit understaffed. All were really nice. We ordered a Manhattan burger with onion rings, and the Chicken Fried Steak meal. The burger was good, basic, and the onion rings were amazing. The cook did mess up two parts of that order though. The CFS was large, but thin, and crispy. It tasted good, but I was shocked at how thin it was. The eggs were a perfect over medium. For covid they are social distancing, requiring masks, wearing masks, limiting how many are in the store and how many are seated, and controlling the flow of traffic. I felt comfortable eating in the restaurant.
