Dined here several times. Really wanted it to be better as its right in our town center but at the end of the day we decided that after giving COOK several tries that it wasn't for us. Here is why: expensive for what you get, food is good but nothing special, and the ambiance felt a bit manufactured. But maybe that's what others prefer b/c this place seems to stay busy. Just our two cents!

The only problem was that the sodas were flat.
Otherwise, a fantastic restaurant.

I do not typically post bad reviews, but we had a very mediocre service. The waiter mixed up our orders twice and we had to wait for a replacement. So we ended up having food brought to half of our family while the other half was waiting.
Also, there wasvery long wait for the food.

The food itself was good.

Cooks made the most amazing, delicious mango coconut cod special ever with perfectly pickled cabbage! Great balance of flavors. Thanks. Great service, fun atmosphere as always. Also love fresh Maine Lunch on tap.

We had a great mushroom pizza with pepperoni. Best part is they allowed us to have cheese on half of it and leave it cheeseless on the other half.
I’m giving 4 stars because I think the drinks are overpriced. I enjoyed the Jack’s Abby Copper Legend Oktoberfest, but $11 for a glass of beer? Come on.

I've been here a few times, sat at the bar and had lunch and cocktails. Really friendly servers and the mushroom pizza is excellent. The crust is thin and tastes kind of like a saltine cracker. Plenty of mushrooms and cheese and great flavor. Looking forward to having it again.

Very nice atmosphere. We sat at the bar but there is outside and indoor table seating as well. The chicken parm and hamburger were delicious. The presentation was great. Glassware, table mats, utensils were upscale.

Monday 7-15-24: Would have been so much better if server had paid us any attention (instead of cleaning empty tables and ignoring us). Had to flag server several times for more water or drinks. Not good. Also, the lamb shank was excellent. But the shrimp scampi was tough, over-cooked. Not good again.

This was the perfect location for a very informal networking gathering of our PRO New England members. The staff, bartenders, and M&M BBQ teamwork spectacular contributors to our successful event.
