“I'm not a big seafood guy but that doesn't matter whenever I eat here. Their steaks and burgers are second to none. They also have a great selection of appetizers made out of scratch.”
“My husband and I stopped here on a whim and were blown away. The food was absolutely incredible!We live busy professional lives, but the cozy shop had an atmosphere and backstory that not only left us admiring the owner, but made us want to find a greater connection to the food we eat.While we were there some of the local patrons came in and the owner greeted them by name. We struck up a conversation with one of them while the owner helped the others decide what they wanted.Charming place, people, and food.”
“I am somewhat biased as my son works here. This coffee shop / pastry / bakery nestled on the Kittery for side may be one of the the most atmospheric places in the area. Loved by the locals and all that visit from distant lands. It is a destination worth checking out.”
“Great food and some unique combinations of ingredients. Spinach salad was excellent. Very tasty roasted garlic dressing. Had the stuffed sole special. Sauce was a lemon caper which over powered the delicate fish although my friend loved it. Tight seating so not much privacy between tables. We got there just before 5pm on a Thursday in March and place was almost full. They don't take reservations so go early.Parking: Small parking lot for restaurant. Street parking available”
“There’s nothing like a New England breakfast nook. A sweet, yet no nonsense waitress; solid, home cooked food like my Irish eggs Benedict; and comfortable interior made for a great experience.”
“We've stopped here before and it was great so we made a return trip and all I can say is WOW!!! The spicy guava chicken sandwich was PHENOMENAL! I can't forget about the yuca fries that were so delicious! Thanks for a TASTY lunch!!!”
“UPDATE 2/27/24- After a few good experiences we brought some out-of-town guests. Several of the food items were cold or barely heated and had to be sent back. It was kind of embarrassing after telling our guests what a great place it is, disappointing....PREVIOUS REVIEW I expected tender, juicy, smokey, meat with a good bark from a barbecue restaurant. What I didn't expect was the surprise of smoked maple sugar granules in the oysters, a delicious fiddlehead relish with the coffee rubbed smoked pork belly, and the grilled pound cake, probably the best dessert I have had in years! Very attentive service as well. Wow!”
“Good place for a quick lunch. Nice menu options with tasty roast beef. More like take out. Even with gas fireplace, seating was lacking coziness. Sandwiches were served on a hoagie roll. Chips are extra. I was expecting something nicer for bread. Very good service and friendly staff.”
“I enjoy this place a lot. Old school. Wish they would open the dining soon. They had a hard winter with the flooding this January. This venue is right on the water. Real cool watching the boats come by. Best salad bar in the area. Pumpkin bread rocks!”
“Nice selection of different styles of beer. My wife and I have very different tastes, but we both managed to agree on one we both liked. Nice place to chill and chat. Kit was friendly and helpful.”
“Very friendly staff and I really like the creative add on toppings list, the pizza was top notch outstanding. This place is my new favorite place to get pizza that’s close to home. Well done. 10/10”
“Friendly service, though can be a tad slow sometimes (I figure it happens during peak hours). Food is consistently good, and I can say this because we’ve been going to this place for years. Comfortable atmosphere.”
“Very authentic. Hot, tasty food. Generous portions and amazing service. Best restaurant in area. If you're a truck driver parking at Irving oil, bobtail over and check this place out! Really great!”
“We happened upon Definitive while visiting outlets in Kittery.We are glad we stopped by. Their space is clean and comfortable, staff friendly and helpful, and their beers - especially their session IPA delicious.They have a range of beers and rotate taps frequently. So there is something for everyone here.”
“This is the best coconut broth I’ve ever had. We subbed the salmon for the chicken in the laska!! They gladly altered the dish for us. Buns were amazing. We really enjoyed watching the staff. Very calm and collected.”
