The food was so flavorful, quickly prepared, and very creative with its presentation. Local sourcing and very high-quality ingredients. The service was on point, the ambiance was warm and relaxing, and the value was more than reasonable. The same meal in Portland would have easily cost forty percent more. I wish I had taken pictures of the meal, but I was tired and hungry and just forgot. My burger and fries were spot on. The fries stayed crispy from the beginning to the end. The burger meat was fresh and very tasty. The dessert was next level, and I did get a picture before eating it, lol. Whether you stay at the hotel or not, City Farmhouse is always an excellent choice.

I've been several…read moretimes and I make a point to bring every out of town guest there because it's not just a meal, it's an experience. This weekend I took my best friend and it was perfect, even in the middle of winter. The deck is still open with plenty of space heaters and even heated seat cushions. We actually got so warm we had to peel off layers, which feels like a small miracle in Maine. The two of us love a marg & taco outing, and make a point to scope out the best of the best. We started with chips and salsa and some queso, which were the perfect kickoff. Then we ordered the street corn succotash, my absolute favorite. It's packed with flavor and topped with the most delicious, salty cotija cheese that pulls everything together. I crave that dish. We split the smoked brisket tacos and the smoked pork carnitas tacos, and both were outstanding. The meat was smoky and tender, the flavors were bold without being overdone, and every bite delivered. And the margaritas? Excellent and refreshing. Exactly what you want alongside that food. On top of all that, the staff is consistently wonderful. Every single time we've gone, our waitstaff has been charming, attentive, and genuinely helpful with recommendations. They strike that perfect balance of checking in without hovering, and they make you feel welcome from start to finish. Terlingua never disappoints. Great atmosphere, incredible food, thoughtful touches that keep you cozy even in winter, and a team that clearly cares about the experience.

First night and meal in Portland Maine and we started off at Terlingua. We had a large group so we…read moreended up doing the family style dinner which was $55 a person but let me tell you, you get some much food. We started of with what they called snacks... That being Chip, Guacamole, and Salsa. I will say I was a bag fan of the Guacamole. I was very was seasoned and very fresh. So for the mains them Family Style comes with Smoked Prime Brisket, Pork Shoulder (Pulled Pork), and the Rotating Daily BBQ which for us I believe were Burnt Ends which are one of my favorites. For the side we had Mac & Cheese Cornbread w/ Honey Butter, House BBQ Sauce & Spicy Vinegar with Pickles and Salad. To start with the sides that Mac & Cheese was really good but the winner was for the the Cornbread with the Honey Buter. The 2 just paired together so well. For the mains my favorites were the Smoked Prime Brisket and the Burnt Ends. The Brisket was good., probably not in my top 3 all time but for sure a must try. The Burnt Ends were also very good. You can't always get Burnt Ends but when you can it's for sure a must. We really enjoyed Terlingua and can't thank the staff enough for working with us for this event. For sure a must stop in Portland when you have a big party. Just plan ahead because they are so helpful to work with.

We would have preferred feta or Gorgonzola cheese. We also ordered the pickled wings which were tender and juicy, they weren't anything like we hoped for.

Dinner was great- had the calamari appetizer, and stuffed baked haddock. While not the best I've ever had, it was pretty good. Mashed potatoes could have been more mashed - ran into some large hard chunks. Our waitress pleasant, but interrupted our conversation several times. Some social training seems to be in order. Additionally, she disappeared for over 15 minutes, leaving our drinks sitting on the bar. I fetched them for our table and she never even seemed to notice. Although the food tasted good, we will never be back, as both my husband and I suffered diarrhea from it... wasn't going to mention this but honestly people should know. I've never had to report this about a restaurant in any of my reviews.

They took it in stride and had a table for 12 ready right on time, even with a steady stream of regulars and tourists. The restaurant and brew pub feels like a golf club inside, casual and clubby yet classy. The food is AMAZING. Who knew a beet salad with goat cheese could be such an experience! Some of our folks appreciated that you can order from the kids' menu, and even there you can find something special like a house-made quesadilla along with the usual kiddie burger and Mac-n-cheese. But we never got around to trying their beers!

So, we decided to sneak over here after a busy morning at the lighthouse with our toddler for a nice, filling lunch before a later flight home. We must've gotten lucky on a Sunday bc our wait for three people was about 15-20 minutes quoted and we spent 10 minutes walking the block to entertain our toddler, came back to check-in and our table was ready! yay! We had a great table in the corner by the window which was excellent with our toddler. Our server, Brian, was wonderful and super friendly. Menu isn't huge but, has enough stuff that should be able to please most. We chose a small fry with the daily dip which was almost like a mayo-based honey mustard dijon and was delicious, with ketchup and vinegar for dipping. Fries were crispy and delicious. We got the green salad and the Cuban to split and loved both. The sandwich was delicious and the green salad was light and refreshing with some really yummy herbs on top to include fennel which isn't usually on a salad but I loved the taste for this one, worked perfectly with the dressing. My husband ordered their house-made cherry soda and let me tell you, best cherry soda of my life! We ordered two bc I drank about half of it. They have a charming outdoor patio area with about 3-4 other tables. Charming spot - def. recommend! Wait can get super long - by the time we left they were quoting over an hour for a table since it's smaller inside and large parties can take up almost all the spaces.

The fish tasted super fresh and like clean-eating without being at all flavorless or boring. You can swap the fries for a Caesar salad among other things. It's about $20 which I think is really great deal for a high quality fish sandwich and a small salad. The restaurant itself also has a very refreshing clean feel, feels almost like it's sanitizing just to be in there. I went back today and got the same thing as take out version because it was so good. I had been hesitant to go here because I thought of it as a chain and it's located in the heart of tourist-mecca-Portland. I had seen the outposts in New York City and in Philadelphia, and so when I moved to Maine, I went to other places first for "authentic" lobster rolls. However, of all the places I have been for seafood so far in Maine, this is probably my favorite, or a close tie with SoPo Seafood, but has the advantage of a seaside location and more enjoy-the-weekend vibes. It has a fun, uplifting, light feel and seemingly really good food. Highly recommend.
