    Stopped in for brunch on our way to Portland and we're so glad we did. We ended up enjoying this brunch over the next day's breakfast hands down. I loved that they offer fried green tomatoes and skillets, stuff that's not typically available in all breakfast/brunch joints. I opted for the vegetarian sausage Beans Wallace while the hubby opted for the Sabu Burger. Both were pretty darn good. You wouldn't be able to tell that the veggie sausage was in fact vegetarian. The only thing I would do differently if I ordered my skillet again is to ask for them to prepare the home fried potatoes extra crispy. All in all, it was a really great pit stop and I highly recommend. They even had an adoption event outside with some really sweet doggies that need homes. My 2 faves in one place - delicious brunch food and sweet lovable doggies!

    The food was great and it's not bad for the price. The staff were friendly and helpful with any questions we had. The inside was clean and family friendly. The outside was clean and there was a lot of parking spots.

    Let me start by saying this.... This place has breakfast starters!!! - Brilliant!! Why more restaurants don't have Starters for breakfast is beyond me. So for Starters... we got the freshly grilled Blueberry Muffin, Cinnamon Roll, and Apple Cider Donu! Fantastic!! For our meals I got the Sabu - Think Double Smash Burger, add pulled pork and pickled onions and you have a party. Did I mention they have Sweet Potato Tots??!!! When a restaurant has sweet tots, it's a must side!! California Breakfast Burrito - steak, eggs and add some French !! Yes, please. The French toast - to quote Mrs. B - this is almost as good as my mom's. She never said that about my French toast!! Overall great visit, and since Luke is a freshman we have 4 more years to enjoy!!

    House brewed ice tea was quite good

    Oh man, we chose this place because of yelp. Good choice. 4 of us went, I got the skillet Danny boy which was amazing. 2nd got the same as an omelette, which was fabulous. 3rd got shakshuka and practically licked the plate. The accompanying fried bread (that is not what they called it but indeed what it tasted like) was decadent. 4th got traditional French toast. 3 thick slices and he loved it so much. I would again order the Danny boy skillet. Doesn't taste like corned beef hash, it tastes like it is just corned beef. Very decadent. I tasted the Danny boy omelette and felt it was a bit over salted, but owner of omelette loved it nonetheless. He took half home, too. We started with 2 blueberry muffins right out of the oven for 4 of us. Almost couldn't finish them. They are big and light and very very good. Wait staff was excellent. Room was pretty loud, busy, bustling. Not a place to lounge around for sure, but we walked a bit outside after. It was REALLY great to go here. I think a big part of it, is that it seemed clear that the people who work here like the restaurant a LOT, and really like each other. I'm guessing owners and managers are nice people. I'm not just saying that cause owner is a deadhead either. Def going back there. We traveled just over an hour to go there cause of the yelp reviews. Well worth the trip. TY!

    Skillet, sandwiches and beers

    We had a really unique dining experience at Stages! You enter the restaurant into a homey living…read moreroom style room and you start your drinks and meal in there. They even have cards and blankets. The drinks were excellent and I really appreciated that they offered each drink as regular, low ABV, or no ABV. The first "stage" was a plate of small apps that were outstanding. This stage was probably our favorite part of the entire dinner! For the next stage we were transported into a six seat counter in front of the kitchen where they cook right in front of you. It was really cool to see what they were doing in the kitchen. They even had whiteboards up with their thoughts for future dishes, and that was really cool to see. Each dish was very unique and mainly featured vegetables. There was one tuna course and one course featuring a very small piece of meat (which was actually really tough). There were also two "cookie" courses. Some of the courses were amazing including the sorbet which came with some amazing unique sauces and toppings, and the squash course. Overall, we really had a good time at stages. We really loved the first stage and some of the dishes, but felt overall it was a little overpriced (175 per person prior to drinks tip or tax) for the type of ingredients (vegetables, cookies etc.) and success of the dishes. They do accommodate some allergies (for example no raw fish) but do not for dairy, which makes sense because most of the dishes had creamy based sauces.

    This restaurant is 100% worth all of the hype. I've eaten at several Michelin star restaurants from…read more1 to 3 stars and honestly Stages deserves to be in the top tier category with some of the best meals I've ever had. The tasting counter experience is a favorite of mine to begin with and the flavors and execution were immaculate. My wife took me for my birthday last year and the only thing I can possibly ask is what took me so long to come here? If you enjoy fine dining and are anywhere in the New England area, it is absolutely worth a visit. You will not be disappointed.

    If you're really desperate for a meal at Applebee's for some reason, I suggest you go half an hour…read moreor so out of the way and visit the Sanford, Maine location instead. This one is subpar at best and I've never had a really standout experience here, even once. Historically I've been served the wrong order, had very slow service, the restaurant has seemed dingy and dusty. On my most recent visit, we were seated at a booth next to a window. It was a cold day, and we could feel a constant draft coming through the window, to the point that we had to sit there in our jackets to comfortably eat our meal. The people I was with both ordered coffee and stated that it was lukewarm at best upon arrival at the table, and their food wasn't much hotter. My fiesta lime chicken was hot and tasted fine, but one out of three isn't a great track record. Prices are also outrageous- almost $80 for three meals (two of which weren't hot), two cups of coffee and a soda. Overall, I won't be in a rush to come back to this location and I'll save my very occasional Applebee's cravings for the Sanford restaurant instead.

    I realize Applebee's is a place you go when you want convience more so then a gourmet meal- hence…read morewhy I'm generous giving 2 stars. Came here with my family. Service was extremely slow - barely saw our waitstaff- son wanted dessert, but considering we waited over 20 minutes and had to finally flag down waitstaff to get the check- I told him forget it. Food wasn't much better. Ribs barely had any meat on them and my vegetable side was ice cold. Not "sitting- forgotten " ice cold- but they were "not cooked/ microwaved" ice cold. Never got plates with the appetizers. We won't be back.
