    I was recently solo traveling in Bar Harbor and was just not in the mood for another lobster roll…read more Italian food sounded really good this particular evening, and Porcelli's just happened to be right next door to my hotel. Score! I made a reservation for one but that wasn't really necessary on this particular Sunday evening in September. There were several patrons but it wasn't overly busy. I was given a four-top table which I was grateful for so I could spread out my Acadia maps and plan out my next few days. (It's a bit dark in the restaurant but I wasn't going to be *that* person and pull out my flashlight...) I ordered myself a glass of red wine, focaccia bread, and decided on the lobster tortellini appetizer, despite avoiding lobster, as already mentioned. My waitress let me know I could increase the number of tortellini so that it would be entree size. It was so amazing! The sauce was a sun-dried tomato sauce which was a great complement. The portion size was just was I was looking for. I can now attest lobster tortellini is better than lobster rolls. Great restaurant in Bar Harbor on Main Street! I look forward to coming back next time I am in Maine.

    The space is cute, albeit loud. We had a four top, space between tables is good which is nice. Our…read moreserver was pleasant but appeared largely uninterested. The food was meh...I had a gnocchi dish with mushrooms that had an odd brownish cheese sauce. The gnocchi were good but the dish didn't work. Ordered meatballs, hoping the creamy polenta base would be lovely...it wasn't. Clearly the polenta was either premade and refrigerated or sliced off a log. Lumpy and coarse it lacked consistency one would expect with the description of creamy. Meatballs were ok, dense and on salty side. My companions had better meals, with scallops that were cooked nicely. Overall, for the price point, we had higher expectations. It's not on our return list.

    Tidbit! The Anchorage Motel manager warned us with a whisper: "It's where all the tourists go. But…read moreit's good. It's really good." She wasn't lying. It was worth the 45-minute wait. Spend that time wandering Main Street's shops, because the wait was worth the bite. The shrimp and scallop scampi arrived swimming in garlic, butter, and pasta (perfect fuel before a half marathon). My uncle's fish and chips delivered an actual deep-fried slab of fish, somehow golden and perfectly cooked. And then the seafood pie: crispy, flaky, golden on top in a way that looks borderline burnt but is actually just butter and scallops doing what butter and scallops do. This dish was basically chowder, piled high with fish... And some more fish, with a dash of chowder. Even the blueberry beer came through; we got Orono's Wicked Maine Blueberry Ale, packed with actual blueberries floating up and down. Yes, we paid tourist prices, but we got generous, delicious portions and full bellies.

    Easy and satisfying spot in the heart of Bar Harbor! We got seated, ordered, and received our food…read moreso quickly which was amazing after a long day at Acadia. I would definitely recommend the pizza and the fish and chips, those were winners for sure. The lobster roll and the clam chowder were delicious in the mini lobster bake, though the blueberry tart was unfortunately a little burnt.

    Wow! What an amazing meal in Bar Harbor! We stopped in for happy hour to just grab a cocktail (and…read moreoysters for me) and decided to come back for dinner! Felt like an old steakhouse inside with dark wood paneling. Intimate and quiet. Sat at The high tops by the bar and had incredible And attentive service from Ron, the bartender there. He makes amazing drinks! Highly recommend the Beehive!

    I had my birthday dinner here on a cold, rainy night last weekend. It was wonderful…read more Service was very good and the inside of this restaurant is very charming with art displays on the walls and lots of wood. We had a wedge salad to start which was served a bit differently with their house-made vinaigrette. My husband chose the lobster enchiladas with rice and veggies and a cilantro cream sauce. These were VERY good and I was jealous. I loved them. I chose the fish of the day which was haddock with rice and veggies and a pesto sauce that was SO good! Very fresh and filling. Large filet of fish on this plate. For dessert, I wanted to try the Indian Pudding a la mode and our server informed me that it was very rich and was somewhat like pumpkin pie, ginger cookies and bread pudding. It was something different, but VERY potent and a bit much for us. We swapped it out for the blueberry apple crumble and were much happier with that. All in all, a wonderful dinner on a rainy night for my birthday. We'd happily come back to this spot for a date night while in town.
