Toast & Jam - Restaurant in Salem - 5080 Commercial St SE #140, USA

That was the worst breakfast experience I've had in a restaurant that I can remember to date. The owner was our server. Most of the orders that we made came wrong even the juice for the 2 year old. We ordered pineapple juice, out came apple, we ordered medium rare steak, out came well done, we ordered bacon out came sausage. The food was horrible, overcooked omelette, the hash browns came out with more potato skin than potato and they were chewy like they had been reheated. Everything was unsalted, like completely bland. No toast came out with one order.... Which we found to be ironic since the name of the restaurant is 'Toast and Jam'. I would describe it as absolutely no care was given. It's clear to me that this is primarily a video poker establishment. The restaurant is just necessary for them to act as a casino.

A small neighborhood eatery with a good menu. Weekend breakfasts can be very busy with a wait in a small entry. A popular place for online, takeout meals stretches the kitchen staff at times. A full bar and separate video poker room add to the spot.

The Apple Crisp French toast was breakfast perfection!! 3 or 4 large fluffy slices of French toast with a very flavorful apple compote and thinly sliced toasted almonds. The apples had a fresh tang to them. All of the employees were cheerful and helpful. The coffee had a nice taste too. I didn't order the bacon, but my husband did and it looked thin and crispy. I couldn't finish it all. The picture represents my leftovers. Mmmm.

Convenient location with good food and fair prices. I really liked the decor and was excited about the menu when I first walked in. The day that I visited (a Monday), it was busy but not full. The only thing lacking was the service. Perhaps my server had a bad day (it happens), so I'll definitely try them again. The food was fresh. My breakfast burrito was good with lots of meat. However, the salsa was bland, and I would have liked sour cream. I could have asked for it if my server would have came around, but that didn't happen. They do have spirits here and video lotto.

Very good breakfast! I went with my 1 and 3 year old boys. They were busy but we only had a short wait and food came quickly! The food was good and my boys cleaned their plates! (They don't always) The only reason I give atmosphere a 3 star is because it is small and a little cramped. A group more then 4 would probably be an inconvenience to the space. I'd be happy to eat here again and try their lunch!

The food was outstanding and the staff was extremely friendly! I had the special "fair fried pb&j sandwich" which was deliciously unique... Highly recommend if you're in the area 😁

Great employees! We're from out of town and the brought us napkins and forks, the employees made us feel welcome. The food was so good! I got the daily breakfast special!

Second time eating here. First time was when I discovered the best hot wings in Oregon... don't tell anyone. This morning, I discovered the best Smoked Salmon Benedict and Cinnamon Roll in Oregon. Crispy bacon. Good coffee. Friendly / homely service. Looking forward to making my way through the menu.
