We popped in for some oysters and they did not disappoint! Our server recommended the ones we got but I forget the name - terrible for this review, I know. They were small and briney and tasted like the ocean which is everything we want from oy...
sters off the coast! Our 10 year old got a blueberry soda and fries and loved both. My husband’s lobster roll and I kept stealing his fries they were so good. We’ve eaten at several places in Boothbay and they have all been better than anything in Bar Harbor. I always tell people to make the trip to Boothbay while in Maine because there’s just nothing like it and this place is no different.

Definitely the off-season and we were lucky to find this place open. The view was amazing, being right on the harbor and I can imagine it's insane in the summertime out on the deck. Definitely coming back for that. We came in with a very hangry...
and unhappy toddler, and the staff could not have been nicer. They got us settled in and our waitress brought waters, with a kid's cup & straw for grumpy toddler. We ordered truffle fries, shrimp cocktail, chili, and chili-cheese fries, which were all good. But grumpy toddler wanted ice cream and the restaurant didn't have any. Toddler wasn't accepting reasonable explanations, and we were trying to come up with Plan B or C when our amazing waitress came back and said the kitchen had located some ice cream in a freezer upstairs. How unbelievable that they would have looked that hard. I've been to hundreds, (maybe thousands?) of restaurants in my life, and that's the kind of effort that melts your heart. When our toddler is older, he'll be embarrassed by this story but we'll keep coming back here because we appreciated it so much, and you seriously cannot beat the view.

just went here for the third time in as many years. was not disappointed! we had the same waiter twice as he was super kind and welcoming. first, we had a nice and easy sit down meal and my quesadilla was very good. we came back two days later ...
for takeout since almost nowhere else was open, the bartender was super friendly, polite and eager to help us. good food atmosphere views and service. definitely come here if your around it and hungry! i will have to try the sushi next time.

We have been to Boothbay Harbor many times but this was the first time we ate here. I wonder whether it was because it was so tucked in. Anyway, the food was great! Lobster and shrimp Alfredo was excellent; all the other dishes were gre...
at too. We asked to be seated outside, without realizing the spot we were put in, the last open spot, did not have any ocean breeze but under a very hot sun. I wonder whether the waitress should have warned us. anyway, we enjoyed the food even though we were toasted ourselves. next time i will check the location out before committing to the seats. also, on the second floor, there are two bathrooms available to the patrons. one of them is very very tiny and the lock does not work. they should have kept that for their own staff, because i had made up my mind not going back ever to the restaurant if i did not see the much bigger and much nicer rest room by chance. here it is a picture of the hook on the door from inside.

You come here because it's on the harbor- The view is excellent, especially with outside dining option- but there are plenty of windows if inside dining is the only option. The view is excellent. Restaurant is ideal for harbor scenery.

as OK, but not great. service was average. We both ordered Japanese noodle with garlic sauce, vegetables and shrimp. The sauce was far too heavy, and soaked the vegetables so they were not "snappy" like typical asian dishes are expected to be. And the shrimp was a bit overcooked not having a chewy, dried out texture. Overall taste was good.
Highlight for me was the desert. I had the blueberry pie, which is not made on premises, but made by a bistro nearby. It was outstanding.
Go here for the scenery, not necessarily the food. Parking is difficult aeound the area. if you are lucky, you can find free street parking. all the lots nearby are $10 park all day. steep hills, not ideal for limited mobility.
gorgeous location.
