Lovely location on the Castine waterfront next to the Maine Maritime Academy…read more We came during inclement weather, and had to ask to be re-seated as our first table was very drafty and the protective plastic weather covering unable to be closed. At our second table we enjoyed watching the rain and yet could imagine sitting on the back deck on a sunny day. Service was okay and friendly. The food gave me a little bit of sticker shock, but we came for my first ever lobster roll. It was very tasty, but I really like tartar sauce and asked for a little on the side. Once the bill arrived I had sticker shock once more as they charged $1 for maybe a tablespoon of tartar sauce. I purchased a souvenir shirt (no sticker shock)

The handwritten menu on the chalkboard is cute and rustic. However, the service we experienced was the WORST!! Food was okay, just average, with small portions and extremely high prices: The omelet is large enough to feed a child, not an adult, and the Maine lobster roll is also small yet overpriced at around $30+$7 for French fries. $40 with fries, tax and tip makes the price higher than NYC prices. The $4.50 coffee cup does not include a refill (we were not aware that there was an extra charge for coffee refills util we saw the bill). For a simple light breakfast, also expect to spend an average of $40 per person! Last year, the gentleman server/proprietor was extremely rude and crude and disrespectful. This year, we had a similar dismissive experience with the other owner from Hawaii. For the sake of the survival of the business, I hope both owners would stay away from customer service and hire a more pleasant server instead. They both severely lack the communication skills and the enthusiasm to serve and be helpful. We decided that our last order would be a take-out. After ordering, we were asked not to wait for the food order inside the store; the proprietor asked to wait outside instead. A short time later, we were handed our food in several takeout white foam boxes, without a carry-out bag! The hinges popped open while trying to balance the boxes while carrying them. The quantity was a little disappointing but the quality was unacceptable because one of the fish orders we picked up was undercooked and could not be consumed! The rest of the food though was tasty.

Topped it off with a chocolate ganache with the most intense strawberry coulis I've tested in a while; it was fingerlicking good!

My cod was poached in a bright acidic ponzo flavored sauce was cooked perfectly with the silken texture which is hard to achieve except with very exact cooking. It was served over cooked scallions and was one of the best things I have eaten this summer. Simple salad was fresh and perfect. 2 pieces of toasted sourdough bread was an extra charge. Lasangna was vegetarian with a slightly spicy fresh tomato sauce and a generous portion attractively presented. For dessert we has a outstanding grapefruit sorbet and a luscious blueberry sauced tres leches cake.

Seeing it in the distance fills me with an overwhelming sense of excitement as it meant returning to one of my favorite hiking spots in New England (so far) and beginning a weeklong binge on Maine's freshest seafood. I absolutely love this tiny and unassuming (from the outside) seafood market and couldn't wait to be back again this year. Last year, it was the first stop to pick up ingredients for my weeklong visit to Acadia National Park. This year, after a whole year of telling anyone and everyone I knew visiting Acadia, it was once again my first stop after I started driving from Boston. Loaded Lobster Roll - check. Loaded Crab Roll - check. Dorr Hoodie - check. Fresh scallops - check. 5# bag of steamers - check. Calamari salad - check. A pair of lovely fresh and alive lobsters for later - check. Some of the freshest stuff at really competitive prices. What's there not to like? Oh yeah, there is Tim with his super sarcastic sense of humor. A conversation with him just absolutely cracks me up. Super nice dude with a lot of information and makes the overall experience here even better than it already is. I also got to meet the father and son owners during this visit. Always glad to meet the hardworking fishermen behind the amazing product that I've become addicted to.

My wife made some awesome fish and chips with the haddock, had some beautiful sautéed scallops, and the soup was excellent. Was about $75 for everything, and we'd come back. The two gentlemen running the place answered all my questions and were more than happy to assist.
