The food was exceptional and the service also wonderful, friendly but not fussy. Thanks for a great dinner and experience.
The singular best dining experience I’ve ever had. The food was thoughtfully prepared and perfectly balanced, the service was perfect, and the chef’s counter seating was super fun. You made our 22nd anniversary very special. Thank you!
Our server was so thoughtful and kind. He went above and beyond. Our food was spectacular! The steak was cooked perfect! The mussels were so flavorful and the sauce was perfect. We didn’t leave one ounce of food on any plate. We will be back to Maine, this restaurant being one of the best reasons! (Making the reservation was also a pleasure)
