5 Best Cocktail Bars near Northport

“We went for Monday Dinner and ate out on the deck which was spacious, lovely and comfortable. We were greeted warmly and promptly and our server was terrific.

The food is fresh and delicious. We had the chicken quesadillas and the burger ( perfectly cooked) with fries (hand cut tasty not greasy) and coleslaw ( tasty). The wine was also excellent. This is a gem.“

“Excellent food in a beautiful location. The top notch attentive staff make you feel welcome. We eat at Salt Wharf almost weekly. By far, the best in the area.“

“Warm and welcoming, and Red knows her stuff. Wish we lived closer so we could drop in easily.“

“What a phenomenal dinner with family. Visited from far away, but I am thankful we ended up here. 1st, Chris was a fantastic host at the bar before we moved to our table. Addison took over and took great care of us. Portions were ample & everyone sated and happy. Highly recommend for the foodie and non-foodie alike. All can find happiness and be well taken care of at the same time.“

“Satori is a cozy, consistently excellent Japanese restaurant in the heart of Belfast — a town you might not immediately associate with fresh sushi, thoughtful cocktails, and a refined dining experience, but it absolutely delivers on all fronts.

The fish is reliably fresh, the sashimi is clean and delicate, and the signature rolls — especially the Miso Hungry — are well-balanced and deeply satisfying. Their cocktail menu is outstanding, and the sake list includes everything from approachable bottles to premium selections that show they take their drink program seriously.

The interior is warm and intimate, with a smart layout that gives every table its own space. The lighting is perfectly tuned — not too dim, not too bright — just the kind of low-key glow that makes a dinner feel relaxed and personal without losing any clarity. It’s one of those places where you immediately feel at ease.

The service has been excellent every time we’ve gone. The staff are professional, attentive, and clearly care about creating a good experience. We drive an hour to get here, usually once a month, and we’ve never left disappointed.

Located right by the water in the most inviting part of town, Satori fits naturally into the rhythm of Belfast — a place that already feels like classic coastal Maine. If you’re anywhere in the Midcoast area and want good sushi served with care in a space that feels genuine and thoughtfully run, Satori is well worth the trip.“
