The service was very good, our bartender was attentive throughout our dining experience. The food was amazing and came out pretty quickly. We had a lobster roll (ordered warm) which was buttery, if you like it that way & Haddock tacos. My martini was very strong, maybe a little too much for myself, but not complaining! For dessert, we split the blueberry cheesecake, it was DELICIOUS. Would definitely return here if I was driving back to Maine in the future.

The food at Robert's Maine Grill was excellent, as it usually is for us, but the service on this…read morevisit felt off from the moment our server approached the table. His replies were delayed, his tone was monotone, and he did not seem confident with the menu. When my wife asked if they had the blueberry beer, he took the menu from the table and stood there reading it silently instead of checking with the bartender. Later, when my wife went to modify a dish, he said he was not sure they could do that. She told him, "I know they can. I do this every time I am here," and that is when he mentioned he had only been working there a few months. It explained the uncertainty, but it did not make the interaction smoother. The strangest moment was when I said I did not like the club soda. He came back and said, "Since you do not like the club soda you will not like the flat water, so I brought you a sparkling bottle instead since it is the same price." It was not rude. It was simply a very odd assumption and not something I have ever had a server decide on their own. On the positive side, the star of the meal, and honestly every time we come, is the shrimp cocktail. Huge shrimp served over crushed ice with cocktail sauce and extra horseradish. The shrimp were incredibly fresh, very firm, and had that perfect crunch with each bite. Absolutely delicious. The kitchen continues to deliver, and the rest of the staff seemed great, but the service at our table did not match the usual experience. We will be back for the food, especially that shrimp cocktail, but hopefully with a more confident and consistent front of house experience next time.

Opened the dip and it was a generous portion. The amount of tortilla chips was perfect. I would highly recommend a fork or spoon to put the dip on the chip because it was chock full of chicken. It had just enough buffalo sauce so it wasn't overpowering. This was definitely worth $15. They have specials often - Thursday is $18 lobster rolls so I will be going back!

Perfect bagel place. No notes…read more When you're heading home from vacation, you have to go out with a bang, e.g. one last great meal. But the car is packed, you're sweaty from packing the car, the dog's inside, it's ninety degrees out, and suddenly a sit-down brunch is the worst idea anyone's ever had. A breakfast sandwich is the obvious move... but Dunks isn't ending anyone's vacation on a high note. What you actually want is a bagel shop *that is also a deli*, because obviously you're going to convince yourself this sandwich needs something bougie like avocado. And maybe red onion. Maybe sprouts. Maybe all three. (See aforementioned note about still being on vacation) Of course you also need a place with online ordering, so you can tick little boxes and assemble your slightly unhinged sandwich in private. (btw the person making it is either judging you or admiring your vision. Cream cheese AND bacon? OK I see you.) Place the order as you're leaving Ogunquit and it's waiting for you by the time you hit Kittery. The next thing you know, the whole car is rolling down I-95 in complete silence because everyone is chewing away with cream cheese in the corners of their mouths. A word of advice, don't forget the napkins

Harbor Burger Shack, Kittery Maine. Our lunchtime visit to the Harbor Burger Shack was a pleasant experience. This counter service restaurant features a unique blend of nostalgic charm and modern amenities, including ample parking and indoor seating. Upon entering, guests are transported back to the 1950s era of car hops, surrounded by vintage memorabilia and classic arcade games. The diverse menu ensures that there is something for everyone, while the friendly and attentive staff provide exceptional service. The restaurant's milkshakes are a signature item, and their popularity was evident during our visit. While the food we ordered was good, it did not particularly stand out. It is worth noting that other local establishments offer more impressive burgers. However, the prices at Harbor Burger Shack are reasonable and in line with regional standards, making it a viable option for families. I would recommend this restaurant to families with children, as it offers a unique and enjoyable dining experience. read more

I recently visited Harbor Burger Shack and was thoroughly impressed with both the food and the atmosphere. The menu offered a variety of great options, and my meal was cooked to perfection. What stood out to me was the upbeat and fun atmosphere; it made the dining experience even more enjoyable. The service was quick and efficient, with friendly staff and my needs were met promptly. I highly recommend Harbor Burger Shack to anyone looking for a much better option to fast casual national restaurants. read more

The "classic" burgers that we ordered were well represented with the ingredients we like (beef, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion and pickle with some "hush" sauce - essentially thousand island dressing). We loved every bite !! We'd return here in a heartbeat, so if ever we're up in that area, we'll be getting those burgers again. Yummm.
