Food was fantastic! Staff very friendly. A bit loud cause of layout but absolutely worth the trip!

Mediocre is the overall rating. How they were nominated for any awards is beyond me.
We'd been wanting to go here for several years and finally made it out. What a disappointment.
Pros- the mussels were very fresh with a delicious sauce and great sourdough.
Cons- the cocktails were fine. Nothing special. Fish and chips were mediocre. The batter was very thin and the fish was dry. For a $30+ meal, do something to the ketchup or make another sauce. And serve it with lemon. The mushroom fried rice was a disaster. The rice itself was extremely salty, borderline inedible. The mushrooms were overly sweet and there was nothing special about it. It needed spice and acid and texture. It was a bowl of mush and soft. There were even clumps of white unseasoned rice throughout. Rookie dish and so pedestrian. Our waitress was more worried about upselling us than checking in throughout the meal. Never asked about dietary restrictions or allergies. She had zero personality and it really made the meal even more boring. Overall will not return. Such a disappointment and it ruined my husband's birthday dinner.

Best meal within a 20 mile radius easily. Me and my lady go here monthly because it's just so good. I have yet to have anything disappoint andevery dish absolutely delights me.

I absolutely love Flux Restaurant & Bar. I’m from out of state, and every time I’m in Maine, my friends and I make it a point to come here.
My local friends are regulars, and it’s genuinely so sweet to see them interact with the staff and other familiar faces. Flux perfectly captures that homey, small-town vibe without sacrificing atmosphere or culinary quality.
The food and drinks are consistently divine—I’ve never had a disappointing experience.
One of my all-time favorite cocktails is the La Latina, and I highly recommend the mussels and poutine as appetizers. As for entrées, you truly can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, but I always find myself ordering from the specials.
A must-visit spot every single time.

Burger was delicious. Wedge salad very good. Service was great. Highly recommend
Excellent. Great bartender and service. Dinner was on par with a high-end restaurant, but without the pretensions. A place for a normal Mainer to enjoy a fine dining experience.

Grabbed some food to go tonight and it hit the spot. Far East salad- sooo good. Then had the Miso glazed Black cod. Amazing!

4.5 A nice surprise in the small town of Lisbon! We really enjoyed our meals. The atmosphere is nice. Our waitress was attentive. I highly recommend the Flux Burger and Fried Chicken Sandwich. It’s on the pricey side but worth it! We spend $120 including tip on 2 drinks, an app, and 2 meals
Stellar staple of the locals scene here in Lisbon. Don’t miss it if you have the chance. They do fish and wine particularly well.

We decided to do take out and ordered the Flux Burger and their Crispy Chicken Sandwich. Both were amazing and traveled quite well (from Lisbon to Brunswick). I decided to add on the Chocolate Dome desert because why not? We were blown away and it was the highlight of the evening (and the next because we couldn't finish it in one sitting)!
