Salem's Diner sits on 18th Street South in Homewood, run by Wayne and built around its Philly Cheese Steak. The menu stays short: cheeseburgers, club sandwiches, and a breakfast service that now includes a Philly Omelet playing off the diner's signature sandwich. Dessert is brownies or lemon ice box pie.
Regulars point to the cheesesteak and the breakfast as the two reasons to go, and the diner has built a reputation as an authentic mom-and-pop fixture in the neighborhood, with friendly staff and consistent cooking behind the counter.
