Me and the wife ate here last night. I must say the NE/SW Burger was fantastic, cooked perfectly. my wife loved the Blueberry Martini so much she had to have another. Our server was soooo friendly and fun, I feel bad. I can not remember her name. But not to worry, we will be eating again here tonight.

Standard coastal dining. Very friendly staff. Portions were enough. Food was decent. Quality spot but nothing extraordinary. You can’t go wrong here if you’re looking for a bite in Bucksport.
Always a go to for dinner when we are in town! The food is always fresh, service is friendly and efficient. Highly recommend reservations or you may not get in.

Fabulous service even though we needed to change tables due to additional guests. The haddock chowder was devine, unthickened and full of bacon, potatoes and corn. The swordfish special was beautifully fresh and cooked perfectly. Kimberly is a rockstar to our ragtag group. Thank you for a lovely evening!

Didnt think we needed reservations, but I do say make that reservation ahead of time. We waited 20mins for a table on a Friday night. It was worth the wait. They were short staffed but still managed to have great service and wonderful food. Kimberly our server made it felt like home away from home. We had the Duck with Rasberry sauce, Shrimp Scampi & Linguine, and the Cajun Grilled Halibut.

We enjoyed an excellent cup.of roasted tomato with crumbled bleu cheese soup.followed by bbq ribs. it was an excellent, tasty meal. However, whike the bread was served warm, the butter pats were super cold. i opened one to find that half of it had been previously removed by a knife - in essence, it we being re-served. i concede that possibly a previous patron took what waa wanted and gently pressed the cover on the pat back down to make it appear to be unopened. Regardless, that was not a pleasant moment for me. We do not enjoy struggling to get butter soft enough to spread.

My boyfriend, parents, and I had dinner here this past Friday evening and the food and service were phenomenal! The drinks, appetizers, entres, and deserts exceeded all of our expectations! Our server was extremely personable and was definitely on her A game, making sure that our drinks stayed filled and checking on us regularly to see if we needed anything. It was a bit pricey, but absolutely worth it. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the area!

If you're looking for a place that exhibits blatant racism, this restaurant is it.
As an Indian who has been in the U.S. for over three years, I've never experienced racism until I visited this restaurant. Unfortunately, this was an experience I had to pay for.
Here's what happened. My partner, a U.S. citizen, and I were celebrating her birthday and decided to dine at this restaurant. I ordered Mac and Cheese, and my partner ordered Meatloaf. Since I'm a vegetarian, she kindly offered her side of fries, making sure to inform the waitress about my dietary preference. The waitress brought fries that were practically burnt. It was clear this wasn't an accident.
But the most glaring issue was the dinner rolls. We noticed that every table was served dinner rolls as soon as they sat down—except us. When our food arrived, we patiently waited, noticing that even those who sat down after us received their rolls. Feeling marginalized, I asked the waitress about the rolls. Her response, "I'm sorry, I don't understand," was infuriating. My partner intervened, repeating the request for dinner rolls, to which the waitress replied, "Oh, do you want one?" Yes, we wanted the same treatment as everyone else.
Eventually, the waitress brought the rolls, avoiding eye contact entirely, making us feel even more unwelcome. To top it off, she handed the check to my partner, ignoring me completely. This was not about chivalry but about the implicit biases that became evident throughout our meal. My partner was horrified and insisted we leave immediately, vowing never to return.
This was undoubtedly my worst experience at a U.S. restaurant. Racism should never be on the menu, and I regret having to pay for this bitter experience. Enclosed are pictures of the food and our bill. Needless to say, we didn’t touch the dinner rolls.
Vegetarian options: This place will blatantly discriminate. Please think again!
The special chicken & shrimp picatta was delicious. As well as the parmesan crusted haddock. Topped off with couple of Baxter Stowaway IPA.
