T-BONES Great American Eatery

Co-​worker and I were recommended to stop in and glad we did. We are from out of town. We Sat down near the bar and was greeted right away by our sever Meaghan with some popcorn. She got us our drinks, got our appetizer in along with some of their amazing bread. Gave us our appetizers and waited to put our food order in to let us enjoy what we had. She was very friendly and attentive. The food was amazing. Sooo good and such a great menu. A lot of variety. Vegetarian, kids and a lighter menu. Prices are ok.
Definitely would return and HIGHLY recommend.

One of my favorites. Good bar and bartenders. CBC is a great sandwich. The Cobb Salad is terrific but you have to ask for the original large salad.

Awful! Food was cold after long wait. Service was lackluster. T-​bones is always our go to restaurant and I wish we had just gone elsewhere! Sent my salad back because the lettuce was brown. Such a disappointment for our family birthday celebration!

I wanna love this place because I have had pretty decent meals before but my last visit was a little disappointing to say the least. I ordered the steak tip dinner and menu said 9 oz of steak tips. Ok. Great! Not bad for $ 18 I guess. Well… Plate came and there were 3 little tiny steak tips, about 4 oz’s of meat I would guess. Very cheap for paying $ 18 for the meal. So I was very disappointed. The flavor of the 3 morsels were great though. Just wish I got what I paid for. Also had onion rings and felt they were not cooked through and a little hard still. But still not bad abd flavorful and enough to complain to management about.

Situated on busy Rte. 28, this restaurant is the perfect respite from the hustle and bustle of shopping central, amongst all the shopping plazas. Parking isn’t an issue, as there is parking around back and on the side of the free-​standing restaurant.
The restaurant itself has been there for many years. Homestyle decorations yet somewhat modernized décor is a comfortable atmosphere for the home cooked, made from scratch fare. There are menu selections for every taste and preference. Many menu items can be customized to fit your wants or desires. There are also a great deal of vegetarian options available (which I believe can be modified began as well).
I have been to lunch and dinner here several times and there can be a short wait. If you are waiting, you are given a pager and can seat yourself in the wait area or in the bar area where there is the bar and full menu available.
In my opinion if you are a seafood lover you can’t go wrong with their seafood dishes which as fresh and flavorful. The salads, appetizers, and meat entrees that I have tried have been excellent. I’ve never had a bad meal here, honestly. Their desserts are made from scratch and are somewhat seasonal. They are definitely worth checking out. On my most recent visit I had a coconut cream pie which has a layer of chocolate on the crust. The apple crumble is also delicious and served with caramel sauce served as inspiration for a desert my sister made for Thanksgiving. I love these locally owned restaurants in the management group and have been to mostly all of them. Support local. Enjoy!

this restaurant food is expensive and not good. I will never return

Great place. We went for lunch with our kids and this is defiantly a kid friendly atmosphere. The food is good and at reasonable prices.
For apps we got the sampler and everything I tried was great. the buffalo egg rolls, the chicken tenders and the onion rings were all great. Some of the best I have had.
For lunch I got a burger cooked medium well with fries… the burger was great quality, cooked perfectly and the fries were thick cut and not greasy.
Overall a great experience. Wish they were located closer to us…

The outside/​interior of the restaurant looks so dated which has prevented me to come in. But their food is pretty good. They know how to cook steak — super tender and flavorful. I love onion rings but theirs tasted bland. Our server was attentive. I can picture myself coming back but not anytime soon. There’s better restaurants on Broadway.

Really enjoyed my visit to Tbones. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable and the food was well timed and very tasty! I will definitely return.

Umm we are obsessed with this place. We moved to New England about 18 months ago and have eaten here almost every week since then we have never had so much as a mediocre meal, the food has been amazing every time we go! Love it!!!

Hudson location is way better. At this Salem location it seems the inmates run the asylum. The bartenders are disrespectful, inattentive, resulting in unintended rudeness. I noticed less than acceptable patience for an elderly couple. Oh yes, the food was a 4 out of 5.

I like T-​Bones and their seasoning on their steaks, from what I tried on their other stuff… it is just okay. The place is Salem is good as kitchen actually took time with my special order of raw spinach salad with tomato. The person cut off the stems and made the leaves bite size. The preparer even sliced a couple tomatoes and sprinkled cherry tomatoes. They took time and I never get that. I eat out a lot both high and low. This was high end treatment and was VERY impressed! The barkeeps at this location do not ask for your T-​Bones card I sit at bar when I eat, so you need to recall for yourself if you are a T-​Bone fan! Barkeeps at this local are not chatty, but patrons are very nice and kitchen staff wonderful!

We just moved and found this wonderful eatery! Family of 5 all loves this place. Great food and service! Difficult to find these days. It’s now a go to place for our family. We love the complementary bread– it’s so good warm and perfect! Oh! So addicting!
We all think their clam chowder is to die for. The best we ever tasted! In fact, I will have to order a large bowl next time :-)
I’m so excited to return and try their many other excellent dishes. Now go try for yourself– you won’t be disappointed!

Delicious!
As a pregnant lady my mind is constantly changing on exactly what I want and sometimes it’s not on the menu. They have an amazing jalapeño burger on a pretzel bun that I wanted, but with chicken instead. They were super accommodating and made it for me :)
My mom had a regular burger and loved it.
They have great French fries and are a really fun diner, kind of similar to a 99, but I don’t believe they are a chain. It was a nice find nearby the rockingham mall and they had MUCH more on the menu aside from burgers (everything from pot pie to Mexican food).
Go check it out!

Headed here on empty and left on full. The broiled seafood was EXTRA-​delicious. Not too much breading, seasoned delicately and rounded out the French Onion soup, steamed veggies and bread that came with my meal. Wendy served us – she was a RIOT! Food always tastes even better when it’s served pleasantly.
Bottom line: This is a place where you can drop your hard-​earned dollars with no buyers remorse. Well done, T-​Bones! Till we meet again!

I was fortunate enough to find this place in Salem, NH through Unilocal!several months back. I have since made a handful of visits for lunch, dinner, drinks, and dessert. (No, not all at once, though I would if I could with this place!)
Each time I walked in, regardless of the crowd, I never had to wait more than 10 minutes for a table and usually was seated immediately.
The menu for T-​Bones is extensive and, although you might say it’s about the quality, not quantity, I say why not have both! In the 5+ times I’ve been at T-​Bones, neither I nor my guest has ordered a meal or drink they didn’t like or, more often than not, love. I especially need to highlight their selection of apps and burgers, namely the Jalapeño Pretzel Burger, which is phenomenal!
All this good food comes with friendly and timely service and at a great value!
I cannot recommend T-​Bones enough. While I can’t speak for the other T-​Bones or Cactus Jack locations, I can certainly say that if you’re in the vicinity of Salem, NH and want an all-​around dining experience in a casual setting, this is the place!

Always have a great meal here. Staff is friendly. Service is great. I ordered bone-​in Buffalo wings. The waitress put in boneless by accident (don’t want the breading). They reordered the right ones. Took the app off our tab. Manager came over and apologized. Then he handed me an additional $ 20 gift certificate.
None of it was necessary but it feels good to be appreciated.

Buffalo Tenders!
O yeah, the rest of the food is good too! Bar is always packed.

Met my date at T-​Bones yesterday night. I had never been there. It is a large restaurant with a big menu. Something for everyone. Our server was Amber, she did a great job. We got the Espinachos for an app. Tortilla chips around a hot cheese sauce. We liked it very much. Amber asked if we would like bread. A beautiful warm honey wheat roll came out. It was great. If you could put a 10 ounce burger on that it would be perfect. We both ordered burgers. She ordered the Caprese burger with onion rings. I ordered the M.A.F. burger with onion rings. They were both cooked perfectly and the rings were great. We enjoyed the food and the experience.

Yah guy! growing up in New England this was the kind classic American place I could always count on for a good meal. T-​Bones is a chain, but a small local chain so everything is still homemade. This is my favorite kind of eatery with prime rib specials and French onion soup. I came in at 4:00 on Friday and by the time I left the place was poppin’. Signs posted show that even the bar goes on a wait.
Complimentary popcorn at the bar is something I see less and less as the years go on, but they’ve got the machine working and the bowls put out.
Either the restrooms were recently remodeled or the cleaning standards here are Five Star. Even the brass floor drain sparkled! My last trip here makes me wish I didn’t live 300 miles away.
