“I had the baked potato pizza. My husband got the buffalo chicken pizza. Everything was delicious. It was literally some of the best food I’ve tasted. The waitress was extremely nice and attentive as well. For 2 pizzas and 2 drinks it was less than $40. That’s a good deal for any restaurant on the coast“

“Great food, great sushi, great atmosphere!“

“Another special evening at Franny's! Malibu, one of our favorites here, was one of the specials and it was as amazing as ever! Always love the cozy atmosphere and the great music was just at the right volume to add ambience, but not be intrusive.“

“Outstanding dining selection and excellent cuisine! Service is professional and efficient!! Very nice wine selection!!! Our “Go-To” mid-coast restaurant!!!“

“Really nice waitress, great food - we will definitely return“

“My friend and I stumbled upon this winery by accident driving from Camden one day several years ago. When we saw the sign for a winery, we of course had to turn around and find it! I am so glad we did! I am a faithful follower now!“

“Great restaurant, creative menu. I had the granola and yogurt, would have been better with more yogurt since I was left with mostly dry granola to eat after finishing the small amount of yogurt. Tasty, but proportions need to be more balanced. Otherwise a nice breakfast.“

“Fantastic food, service & drinks! My personal favorites are the Beet Napoleon salad & Eggplant Parmigiano!! Best in town & love the generous portion sizes for a very reasonably price. Their house marinra/red sauce is INCREDIBLE! Thank you Rustica for serving up such great food to us l locals!“

“Good tasting Thai food. Good atmosphere and nice seating as well. They were accommodating for vegetarian and vegan food. Sadly they were pretty understaffed and there were long delays in the food.

Vegetarian options: The staff is accommodating and will adjust the recipe for vegan food

Parking: Private lot parking available“

“Hands down the best fish-n-chips I've ever had in my life, and I've had a lot of fish-n-chips. My wife had the bbq burger which was also great! This casual and comfortable place is a hidden gem that deserves a stop. If you can't deal with the full restaurants in Rockland, try this out!“

“Amazing food, staff and atmosphere!“

“As a born and raised Mainer we have been up and down the coast eating seafood all of our lives. This place is hands down one of the best. Seafood is plentiful as well as the best tasting. I consider myself a scallop conisor, l know a good fried scallop. This place is the best. And the fried clams are just as good. Take it from me you will not go hungry or disappointed.“

“we stopped in here after a long drive to Camden, ME for a little bite. the food was very good and the workers were friendly. i would recommend if you are in the area and looking for simple pizzeria foods.

Parking: 2 hour parking spots throughout town and two all day parking lots.“

“Amazed by the beautiful and delicious box of holiday cookies prepared here! May never go back to my own holiday baking again! Highly recommend!“

“The best burger I have had in a long time. Well seasoned and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend!“

“We took my sister out to eat for her birthday. We ordered 2 buckets.. seafood platter. Food was excellent! Servers were great. Even took pictures of us for me. Everyone was so polite and very fun. Food was served hot and tasted amazing. Best seafood place I've been to so far. Highly recommended. Even if prices were high, the food was well worth the 2 and half hour drive! Thank you all! 10 stars if I could give it to you.“

“I ordered the vegetable rice noodle stir fry with no scrambled egg and it is delicious I get it any chance I can it comes in huge servings so I can use it for three or four meals depending on how hungry I am but if u can have egg definitely order it with them it adds a smokey flavor“

“Good cheap pizza stop on a road trip. Easily the least expensive meal I've had here so far. Of course its not fancy but after being on vacation in Maine for a couple of days and paying crazy prices at most sit down places it does the trick.“

“We had a great dinner Saturday, the dressed oysters were amazing 🤤“

“Consistently delicious food. Nice level of spiciness and interesting specials throughout the year. Like most places, it’s hard to get out of there without spending at least $100 for two people, but it’s one of a handful of restaurants in the area where the price feels somewhat justified. My only complaint is that they replaced the Moo Tod with pork belly, which is incredibly fatty. I’m sure plenty of people find it appetizing, but I cannot stomach chewing on a slab of fat (even if it is deep fried). That said, the rice used in the multigrain fried rice dish is second to none. The noise level is quite high when the restaurant is full, so older folks or those hard of hearing may find it difficult to follow a conversation unless you raise your voice to the surrounding levels. Be sure to make reservations during peak season.“

“Found this place about five years ago now we visit every time we are close we're from St. Louis Missouri and I've eaten here 10 or 12 times in the last few years. It's a must eat destination when in or near Central Maine! The Lobster Fettuccine Is To Die For 😋 🦞👩‍🍳🍝“

“Visited here from upstate NY...Best meal ever and the coleslaw is the best I have ever had and I'm big on coleslaw. Will definitely be back, Everything was Cooked perfect!!!“

“We stopped down at the harbor for a snack on a lovely Sunday afternoon. Harbor Dogs is a tiny little stand, but they do a lot more than hot dogs! After a bit of deliberation we walked away with a million tons of food. Poutine! Asian fish tacos! Chili cheese dogs! Lobster rolls! Everything was delicious and those guys at the window? Top notch chefs. Get down to this unassuming shack and get yourself some amazing lunch.“

“My review is based off of the tamales just ordered. I grew up in Panama and it was one the best treats to get fresh tamales. It didn’t happen very often- but when it did, I loved them so much. And obviously in Maine- it’s almost impossible to find them- especially authentic. I was quite impressed with Sammy’s take on tamales. Of course- they are not the exact replica of what I had- but they are very impressive. And it’s A LOT of work to make them. It’s not Taco Bell. These are real tamales and I truly hope they don’t go away. Thanks so much for adding these into the Midcoast menu taking the time. Truly delicious. 🇵🇦“

“Have lived in a variety of places up & down the Maine coast and eaten at many a waterfront restaurant. Some, I think, figure the view will distract you from sub-standard food - lobster roll served on a tiny hot-dog bun, burnt/dried out fries. Granted, it's not haute cuisine you expect when you eat at one of these places, but done well, it's a delicious and essential part of a coastal visit. I had tge absolute BEST crab roll here - a small sub roll STUFFED with crab and just a dab of mayo. No celery/lettuce filler. Fries were moist! Ate 'em all. And I don't usually get excited about fries. Husband had an enormous fried haddock sandwich. Big piece of fresh fish that dwarfed the bun. Plus we got an outdoor waterside seat on the deck on a beautiful day, and great, smiling service. I live two hours up the coast, but hope to return and replicate this experience again sometime.“

“Hidden gem along Maine Coast. Food is amazing with Chef Katherine from Buck’s Restaurant joining the team.“

“The lobster roll was #1. The lobster red Ale wasn't too bad either. My sweetie gave the clam chowder a big thumbs-up. Thanks“

“fantastic food, great outdoor atmosphere! highly recommend!“

“Stopped here for lunch yesterday on a girls trip to Camden. I got the calamari, margaritas, and the waterfront Cuban and we all shared the brownie dessert. Absolutely delicious! They had so many enticing menu options it was hard to choose between them. They have indoor and outdoor seating with a beautiful view of the boats on the water. You won't be disappointed stopping here for a bite to eat.“

“This place is awesome At least once or twice a month especially in the winter my wife and I drive 1.5 hours each way the food is so good. We purposely over order so we have left overs. The staff is friendly and attentive. The decor is fabulous. We are from Boston originally and this restaurant is as good as any in the Boston area.“

“We stopped in on a Tuesday night for dinner and drinks while vacationing in Maine. We sat at the bar and there was no wait. The bartender was personable and attentive. We ordered a couple beers and had dinner. Fish tacos were pretty good. The pasta was good too. We walked here from the place we were staying so I can’t say exactly what the parking situation is but I’m pretty sure it’s on the street - not sure about meters. The atmosphere was laid back and easy going - there weren’t too many others at the bar while we were here but we had a nice conversation with a bar neighbor. Overall great experience.“

“The food was okay, but not special. The potato mash could have more flavor. But overall the dishes were good for the price.
We ordered cocktails, but No one told us about the happy hour special... A great waitress should do so in my opinion.“

“Good Experience at Rock Harbor Pub & Brewery

Finding parking in Rockland is tough, especially with an RV! Luckily, after checking in at the campground, they suggested I park at Pier 2 near the Light House Museum and Police Station. I was looking for a simple bite to eat and some time to walk around, so I stopped into Rock Harbor Pub & Brewery on Main Street.

The atmosphere was great, though the service was a bit slow and disorganized. It wasn’t clear who was handling customers, but no big deal—just added a bit more time to the visit. I started with the Rock Harbor French Fries and was curious to try their Rock Harbor Beer Cheese. The fries were basic, and the beer cheese wasn't what I expected—it was more of a paste than melted cheese. For my beer, I went with the Spruce Head Stout. It had strong chocolate and coffee undertones, but the balance was a bit off—the chocolate overpowered the beer a bit. It reminded me of Young’s Double Chocolate Stout from Eagle Brewery.

For my main dish, I asked the bartender for a recommendation between the tacos or another item. She suggested the Chicken Tacos, one of the most basic items on the menu. I think there was a missed opportunity to upsell, but I understand how it is being in the industry myself. The food overall was decent, and I left a good tip for the bartender on both card and cash.

All in all, it was a good experience. I’ll definitely be back!
