Great spot in downtown Salem. The ramen was delicious! Nice outdoor seating and friendly staff.

Bambolina and Kokeshi are in the same restaurant now, and you can order off both menus! Beautiful lunch date with my wife at the joint kitchen. Ordered apps off both menus and a bowl of ramen and split everything. Friendly and quick service. Good prices. Great food! Italian and Japanese are fun to mix together. Highly recommended!

BAMBOLINA/KOKESHI DERBY ST SALEM Hip pizza joint in historic Salem. Not your run of the mill pizza, these pies are cooked in their 900+ degree, wood burning pizza oven, and their toppings are extraordinary. We tried 5 different pies. We also got the Grilled Caesar salad and some (kid size) pork belly ramen. (Kokeshi is Bambolinas sister restaurant and you can order from either menu). All the pies were great, but my favorite was the Rosso (we added cheese) fantastic!! The San Marzano chunky tomato sauce is the highlight of this pie. I could have eaten a bowlful!! The pies are small, about 11" so it's best to buy a few and share. My brother enjoyed the Beef and Bleu pie and the pepperoni and hot pepper pie. The Forest Mushroom was really good too. Service was excellent, the restaurant is handicap accessible, gender neutral bathrooms, and a parking lot nearby. My only suggestion would be to replace the hard wood seats with something more comfortable.

Small menu but really great fresh pizza. You can see their oven and beautiful decor. I like that there are booths mixed with chairs, makes it easier for people with disabilities to get seating easier. Great service and right in the middle of town.
