    Made another stop here (on purpose this time) and was even more impressed! Glad we called ahead…read moreearlier in the day to reserve a table as the restaurant was bustling on the Friday before Christmas. Love the cozy vibe of the interior so much! I opted for the short rib wrap with potato leek soup, and my husband and his friend both got the all you can eat fish and chips. We were all very satisfied with our choices! Can't wait to stop here during my next visit to Maine.

    River Drivers Restaurant is part of NEOC (New England Outdoor Center), Ktaadn Resorts. It is a…read moreseparate building from other pieces of the property and is a bit off the paved road on a dirt road. My friend and I came here for dinner and really enjoyed this place. First, the service was amazing. Our waiter was so nice, so attentive, and extremely helpful in terms of describing the foods and helping us choose beers. A lot of their draft beers are from the brewery they have on the property (Knife Edge Brewing). My friend and I liked their Blond Ale and their Moon Shadow Session IPA. The IPA was slightly citrusy, crisp, cold, and refreshing. Exactly how you would want a beer. For the food, we had the crab cake appetizer, the caesar salad, and the seafood pappardelle (pasta). Everything was absolutely delicious. The crab cakes were wonderful. Flavorful but not grossly fishy, soft, and the sauce accompaniment was great. My friend and I split the caesar salad and the pasta, so the portions you see of those in my pictures are HALF of what they actually are. The caesar was solid -- a nice sauce and clean, fresh romaine. The croutons seemed homemade and were really good. The pasta had three types of seafood -- shrimp, scallops, and Maine lobster. All delicious and with a tasty garlic lemon cream sauce . It was a good amount of seafood as well. I highly recommend this place. It's a little off the beaten path but well worth it!! As a plus, we spotted a wild fox while driving through the property to the restaurant!

    Anglers is one of our favorite restaurants and I am surprised to see that it has been over three…read moreyears since I have written about it, so here I am. Turns out it is even better than I thought, because I really tested it this time. Anglers describes itself as a seafood place, and indeed they make the best fried scallops I have tried anywhere around here. I usually pair them with clams or oysters for a seafood combo for that reason. But I went in a different direction this time. Partly, I admit, due to the current market pricing, as the current cost is breathtaking, but also because it occurred to me that a kitchen that can provide the very best of a particular dish probably does well at other choices. So I went with the linguine veggie scampi. Then it came down to what type of potato I wanted for my one side dish, so I up-charged my way to sweet potato fries, which were good as always. My wife went with the dependable fish and chips and made sure she included their garlic-smashed potatoes as a side. And what can I say, my veggie scampi was delicious! It came with a pointy French baguette sort of thing and was quite a healthy-sized portion. I must confess that I don't remember exactly what our dinner companion had, but it involved scallops and lemon and she really liked it. Rosie was our server so we received efficient and fun service. Normally you pay on the way out, but this was just before the dinner rush, so she offered to handle the transaction at the table. So, to sum up, a great meal, slightly less expensive than usual, and we all defrayed the cost of the evening by bringing home a second meal.
