A good lunch place. Great sandwiches with generous portions. Order at the bar and food served at the table. I had the "Standard" with italian cold cuts and I could only eat half and saved the rest for later. My wife had the chili dog which she said was very good. Three others in our party agreed the food was good and a great place to eat. Local beer on tap, Would stop there again. read more

If you want good food do not go here, however if you enjoy waiting over an hour for your food and then being gaslit about it not being over an hour by an argumentative waitress with an insatiable ego, to eventually receive an empty lobster shell with no meat in it, than this is your place. Oh and also be prepared to pay a little extra for your baby sitter ! Happy 5 year anniversary to my wife and i!! read more

Waiting time was almost an hour for a burger and hummus. Food is great but not worth the waiting time. They gave a discount out of goodwill which we appreciate read more

Hidden gem in southwest harbor with fantastic food that's worth the wait given that they don't take reservations, aren't open Saturday and Sunday and are clearly popular. The inside was cozy and rustic with a clear fisherman's vibe. My wife and I ate here for our 15th wedding anniversary while on vacation in Acadia. We started with the fisherman's chowder, which is probably the best chowder I've ever had. It wasn't too salty (which is almost unheard of) and came with tons of lobster and other seafood. We both devoured it. The only problem was trying to make sure that you didn't burn your mouth because it was so good you didn't want to wait to eat it. I got the tuna and green bean casserole while my wife got the pasta bolognese. Both were good, but the tuna really stood out. It was seared, sushi-grade, blackened tuna over chopped green beans that weren't in any way over-cooked with a small pea-shoot salad. The name didn't do the dish any justice. We also had a few decent local beers in cans, which both paired well and were yummy. read more

Wow! One of the most unique and high end menus. Incredible food! (I got the Short Rib Stroganoff, pictured above) The atmosphere feels like almost like home! And the service was OUTSTANDING! The owners and staff were top notch! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

I so want to give them a higher rating. First they don't take reservations, waited about 15 minutes. Not bad for a Friday night. Waited a bit for a waitress to come take our drink order, by that time we had all decided what to have for dinner. Caesar Salad and Pork Belly Toast for apps. Both plenty for three and both very good. I got the short rib pasta, gnocchi and bolognese for the boys. This is where they lost a star - it was relatively crowded. There were always patrons waiting for a table - but it had to be about 30 minutes between app and entrees. It did seem that the staff kept saying thank you for your patience. Food was delicious. We'll be back to try them again, food is that good! read more

We caught the sunset at the lighthouse and started heading back to one restaurant we had in mind. I asked my friends to keep an eye out should we stumble upon other options, and as we drove by, Harbor Table caught our eye. We had about a 30 minute wait, but we grabbed some drinks and enjoyed watching the chefs in the open kitchen. The restaurant is quaint and quite adorable. Once seated, Kayla took amazing care of us, learned our names, and made the best recommendations. She let us know they only had a couple of servings of one particular dish left, so one of our friends got it and she sprinted to let the kitchen know to save it for us. We received our appetizers quickly, and although the main courses did take a little while, we didn't mind. Suddenly, Kayla and the owner came out with complimentary limoncello shots and two non-alcoholic options, and they said they wanted to celebrate our friend who beat breast cancer, and applauded her strength and spirit - non a dry eye amongst us upon doing so. That made the experience so personal, and Harbor Table quickly became one of my favorite spots in Maine. The food was all very delicious. I ordered the lobster bisque, and it was warm and chock-full of lobster. Everyone was satisfied, but honestly, the personal touch and caring nature of all the staff was what won us over the most. I highly recommend you drop in and enjoy Harbor Table. read more

Great ambiance, make a reservation by phone call, they can run out of food quickly. They're very transparent about their availability.

Wherever you may be staying on MDI, you have to make sure you eat dinner here at least once. The food and all ingredients are fresh and made to order right where you can see it. The Short Rib Stroganoff may actually be the best comfort dish I've ever had. The Pork Schnitzel was the perfect combo of crispy, juicy, and flavorful. The staff is fantastic. 100% you need to make a stop here if you are in the area! read more

We stopped in at this lively and eclectic little eatery after a long hike, looking for some comfort food and we were glad we did! The hummus was the best we have ever had! It was sprinkled with pine nuts and roasted mushrooms and served with an incredibly soft homemade pita. The flavors combined in a truly stellar fashion. The cheeseburger (two smashed patties) was hands down the best entree on the table. We also ordered jambalaya and pork schnitzel and gnocchi. All were very good but the pork schnitzel was a little over cooked. Several of the entrees with a really fresh green salad in a light vinaigrette. Overall, would highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Great service and amazing food. A must visit while on the island. Worth going out of your way.

This is the kind of place you hope to stumble upon when you're traveling- cozy, scratch kitchen, small menu bursting with flavor I came on a Sunday around 11am and the restaurant was pretty full. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very attentive to us We ordered the lumache Al pesto pasta (I added over easy eggs for breakfast) and my husband ordered "whitefish" salad on toast, which he loved. The pasta was fresh and wonderful. It was an unusual pesto with hazelnuts and included pickled fresno peppers. I came back the next day with my laptop at the bar and was treated very kindly by all as I customized a vegetarian breakfast for myself - modified brat and eggs. Do not not get the potatoes when you visit. They are heaven. I eventually also had the carrot salad, which was almost like a slaw with this addictive tahini dressing. If you're looking for delicious food and to be warmly treated like a local for a few hours, this is the spot for you read more

Still my favorite restaurant within 100miles. Great food and service. It's a must go place. read more

We stopped in here because it was close when it started raining. They have a really wide brunch selection and everything my group got was good. The meals cooked in cast irons like the Dutch Baby and Brat & Eggs were the best. The kitchen was kind of in the dining room which was really cool, we could watch them cook and smelled the great food while it was cooking. I took off a star because it took about an hour to get our food after sitting down. This was probably because they got a rush of people at the same time and the kitchen looked really small. All the staff were rushing around to accommodate everyone. read more

We were so lucky to stumble upon this gem- very few places to eat - and this town doesn't need another place because there's no competition. The food and drinks were outstanding! The popovers beat everywhere else. Must have the clam-crab fritters! And the chef is a genius- adding rapini to a pork sandwich- Rich, tasty, and like nothing else! Do not pass by without eating here! read more

Our 4th visit! Tasty comfort food. Our most recent visit last night the host was very nice regardless how busy it was. We sat at front window. A little tight but cozy, and we got seated right away. The waitress was very attentive to allergies of our party. We had the chicken cutlet, and a smashed burger. All very tasty. The chef even modified their calamari appetizer to accommodate a tree net allergy. As a backup option there is an outdoor "beer garden" in the back where guest can wait for a table, or have a quick snack and play table top games. They now have lobster rolls and steak skewers. Also plenty of parking. We will be back! (photos are from brunch last summer 2023. Not sure why this gem of a place doesn't show up on my yelp search, but it should!) read more

I've never been to Harbor Table. I've actually never been to Maine. But I did call them once because their number is (incorrectly) listed on an Amazon support page. The voicemail message is hilarious and it made my night. They can't help me with my order, but I would eat here, because they have a sense of humor and that goes along way. God speed! read more

Service was good. Never left with an empty glass of water which I appreciate. I thought the decor is nice and it's cool to watch them make the food. Good lighting and the music is not too loud. The hummus was so amazing and is a must get. I got the bolognese and the portion was great and it tasted great. Leaving the place satisfied and with a full stomach. If you are in the area it is definitely a must go. For sure a great restaurant in the Acadia area. read more

The harbor table was open later than most. We didn't expect much and were pleasantly surprised to find the food was excellent.

I've been to Hearth & Harbor a few times now, and gotten take out 3 times. I must say it's nice to have truly great pizza on MDI. The quality is amazing. The flavor that pizza oven gives the pizzas is like none other around here. During the Spring & summer seasons they add several unique appetizers, and now are adding more entrees and pastas. Cocktails a delightful and not overly complicated. The beer and wine selection is great too. The staff is pleasant, professional, and timely. The dining room is gorgeous, and clean. It can get busy during the summer so I recommend getting there early. If you have to wait for a table, I recommend you do so. It will be worth the wait. Take out food holds well too. I've ordered several pizzas and appetizers that carried my 20 minute drive without losing quality. Also that lasagna and smoked chowder are two of the best bites on the island. read more

Wow - amazing pizza in the middle of Acadia NP!!!! This is probably my favorite restaurant in the area. The setup of the restaurant is fairly simple - you walk in and order at the counter and then choose an open table. No reservations, so perfect for walk ins! There is ample space in their outdoor patio area with heaters next to each table. The pizzas are made fresh in their pizza oven. The fennel sausage pizza was amazing. Perfectly blended flavors and a thin delicious crust. Also ordered the beet salad which was great. read more

Very charming historical building. A lot of small cozy rooms. Service was quick & attentive. If you order a martini be sure to specify a double as our glasses seriously came half full. My halibut entree was one of the best preparations I've ever enjoyed. Very convenient walk from the waterfront hotels. read more

Who comes to Maine for pizza, you may be thinking? Well, think again! Hearth & Harbor was AMAZING and was unanimously a favorite meal between me and my bf. After hiking all day, this was just what we needed. We ordered the beet salad, the spicy lobster pizza, and the clam pizza. Hands down, the spicy lobster pizza was so unique! I've never had anything like it before, and each slice had my tastebuds buzzing - whether that was from the spicy oil or happiness (probably both) is debatable. I'm happy to say that they didn't skimp on the lobster chunks either. The clam pizza was also super yummy! Definitely has more of a seafood taste to it if that makes sense, but I enjoyed it. Ordering is done at the front, and you take a number to whatever table is available. We sat at the front, but there is more seating further inside. Love the vibes of this place and the staff is super friendly and attentive. Don't miss out on some of the most memorable pizza I've ever had! read more

Harbor Table - two pizzas and a pitcher of beer - Beer Bar Near Me - Southwest Harbor, Maine

What are the odds that the one night we stop by out of the year was y'all's one year anniversary party? Congrats on being awesome! I suck at math, so I'm not gonna speculate on the statistical odds, but I will say it was clear from the start of our dinner that folks love this place because the restaurant was packed, even though it's off season. More importantly, the pizza here is dope and the service was great, despite what some salty dogs have said in other comments. Our pizza came out quick, even though there wasn't an open seat in the house. So how was the pizza? Well, it's everything you want from a wood fired za. As a matter of fact, it was/is so damn good, we decided to come back. The ingredients were fresh, the sauce was spot on, and as you can see from my photos, the cheesiness didn't disappoint. We also had budino for dessert that was better than your nonni's. Seriously. Maybe the best I've ever had. But, "who goes to a pizza restaurant twice while on vacation in Maine?" Well, that's a decent question, Chief. But life isn't all Lobster rolls and Moxie cola. The answer is a big-brained traveler eats pizza twice. Not to mention they have a spicy crab pizza which is like the best of two worlds: Pizza and Seafood. And did I mention budino? What about lasagna? What about a really great beer selection? Need I say more? Should you eat here? Well, if all the locals are eating here I'd say that's a solid indication that, yes, you should. Should you eat here twice? Well, I'll let you decide after you try that first slice . . . and the budino. read more

Honestly SO delicious. I'm vegetarian and got the Beech Hill Pie and Lasagna. Pizza crust was flavorful and just the right amount of chewy while still able to hold the toppings. Sauce was great, toppings were primo, just the right combination of herbs. Lasagna is seasonal, I think, but they heat it up in the wood fired over and my god it's so good. Homemade pasta, amazing sauce, right amount of cheese and again, the herb blend was perfect. Boyfriend got the Maine Dude (I think that's what it's called) coffee cocktail. Loved it, and he has high standards for cocktails read more

By far one of my favorite dinners on the island. We typically stay in NEH and eat on that side of the island but this year decided to try SWH. Glad we chose this place!! Food was perfect even though things were a bit slow. From the chowder to the chicken cutlets and bolognese the entire family left happy. Oh and the chocolate mousse was the perfect ending! It was all well worth the wait. read more

Great food! Fantastic service! Superb atmosphere! Met a lot of locals. Great folks and so genuine. Will definitely revisit

I hesitate to give Hearth & Harbor five stars, because it would only become more difficult to get in. Reservations are not offered, and this place is POPULAR, even in late season. We were seated at the window top, the only two remaining place settings in the restaurant at 5:45 PM. Those that followed waited up to an hour for the tables to turn, or left dejected to search out other dining options in town. I doubt very much anything close to the quality of this chow exists on all of Mount Desert Island. There is palpable energy to the restaurant that betrays the anticipation of its diners - this place hops. The service could not be more friendly, the cocktails are good, and the food is amazing! We had the acorn squash soup, beet salad, Margherita pizza, and a very special chicken pasta, but there were many more menu items we wish we could have tried. The pasta (made in-house) and wood-fired pizza were as good as any we had on recent trip to the Mediterranean. Very much look forward to returning. read more

I would give this place 6 stars if I could! The food was AMAZING. we had the Caesar salad (topped with anchovies which I've never send before-- very inventive!), the crab fritters which were served over some thousand island-esque aioli, and a pepperoni pizza. Everything was TO DIE FOR. I will make it a point to go back here next time in in Maine! The drinks were also really good. Also I loved that you could order a drink and then take it to the back patio "garden" area and play a game or cards while you waited. Nice touch! read more

Tried to come here for dinner with my family and the host was incredibly rude, did not end up eating here. We said we had 5 people and he immediately was like "No, I already have big groups we can't do 5 people"in a very rude tone of voice. My dad saw a table nearby and before he could even say anything the host immediately was like "Don't tell me how to do my job, I have a waiting list right here, there's a waiting list for a reason", etc etc and he kept going off even though we never said anything to imply we were telling him how to do his job? We were just asking and all he had to say was "Oh sorry, that table is already reserved but I can put you on a waiting list!" But instead he was incredibly rude and acting as if he was better than us and as if we somehow insulted him. I was so shocked because I have never seen such a rude host before. I've worked in customer service before and this person was incredibly incompetent. Maybe it's because I'm from NYC, and people are usually very nice there. I was also highly suspicious that it was because we were Asian, as most of the people here are white. He ended up putting us on a waitlist and said it would be 30-40 mins, but we were so shocked and extremely uncomfortable so we looked for another restaurant and found one next door that was much kinder to us. read more

I am giving Harbor Table five stars because it is just a wonderful place. The food is modern and full of flavor. The ambiance is warm and welcoming. Lots of yummy things on the menu. I especially enjoyed the roast pork on toast. The pork was porchetta with a really nice cider mustard sauce. My husband ordered the wood fired burger, it was delicious. The bar selection is great. We really enjoyed our dinner and the friendly service. I hear that the brunch is wonderful too. It is a popular restaurant. Consider going early. But the wait is worth it! read more

We came here last night (group of 8) and had one of the best dinners we've ever had. This may seem like an exaggeration but we literally could not stop gushing over every dish. We tried: - both Caesar and beet salads - amazing - meat and cheese board - one of the most creative and delicious I have ever had (pictured) - 5 pizzas - omg The pizzas we will dream about were the spicy crab and the smoked haddock. The clam pie was also unreal. The wine list is great too. Please do yourself a favor and come here. It may not be the Maine faire you were originally looking for but you will not be disappointed. The staff and chef's were all so friendly and welcoming. Wishing this place a glorious future and most likely will be going again this week. read more
