Ledger Restaurant
About
Ledger is a restaurant and bar in downtown Salem housed in the former Salem Savings Bank building, which dates to around 1818. The kitchen takes what it calls a progressive New England approach: traditional 19th-century dishes, cocktails and techniques are elevated with 21st-century resources. The restaurant’s tagline, almost 200 years in the making, ties the menu to the age of the building and the old recipes it draws on.
Chef Daniel Gursha leads the kitchen, and his work at Ledger earned a 2022 James Beard Foundation nomination for Best Chef: Northeast. Besides serving lunch and dinner, the restaurant is listed as a function and meeting space, so groups can book gatherings inside the historic bank. Ledger describes itself as pleased to be part of the downtown Salem community, and its website introduces the people who run the restaurant.
