Came for brunch recently with the family. My kids got scrambled eggs, which were fine. I ordered my eggs over easy, but they were cooked over hard, yolk's were not the least bit runny which is the main reason to order over easy. My partner's eggs benedicts were forgotten, then arrived not fully cooked, assumed the order was rushed. For $15/$16 they should be able to cook eggs properly. Staff was friendly enough, but that doesn't make up for poorly cooked food that can be done better at a greasy spoon for half the price. I know they're trying to be fancy, but the food should really come first. Based on other reviews it looks like dinner or lunch is the way to go. read more

We visited with a group of friends and very much enjoyed our dinner. We were very impressed with the service that we received. Our waitress was very friendly, and they were very accommodating with special requests, which bumped this review from a 4 star to a 5 star. We started with Lisa's favorite, and I could not get enough of the roasted garlic. It was perfect. I enjoyed a pear martini before dinner as well. I had the baked haddock for dinner with a side of brussels sprouts. The brussels were very flavorful. The haddock could have used additional spicing but otherwise, good. We look forward to visiting this spot again! read more

Cozy ambiance but a bit noisy when a larger group is nearby. Delicious food and comfortable service. We were disappointed the place wasn't busier as they deserve your business and we'd like to see them do well. The prices are a bit upscale but the food was really good and the portions generous. read more

Everything was perfect. Great food, great setting, great service. The Good Table ranks among the many fine Portland restaurants.

You can't go wrong at The Good Table for breakfast. The location is set off the road and not far from the water. The atmosphere is very comfortable, but loud as it is open concept. But who cares. Once you start eating one of the cinnamon rolls, you are lost forever. I could eat one alone, but shouldn't so bring a friend or two. The food options for brunch are awesome and many ingredients are local. It does not matter if you have a group with various dietary needs, you can find something that will appeal to you and of course be delicious. Family owned and operated, you can expect a friendly smile and a hug if you ask for it. ;-) Juanita's Burrito and Tony's Corn Beef are top notch. Though, I like to eat a bit lighter and go for the Market Street or Italian Villa. Enjoy read more

We have done both dinner and brunch at The "new" Good table. They were out of most things on the menu during brunch which was extremely disappointing. I had a small burger that was mediocre. The pork schnitzel dinner was good but everything felt overpriced. read more

I stopped in for lunch during restaurant month, Cute nook kind of place. Not saying it's small at all. Good size parking lot, nice porch to wait on if they are very busy. Lots of small cozy tables that can be placed together if you have a large group. Good size bar. Some interesting drinks on the menu with there own spin on them. Lots of wines on the menu. The interior is nice and calm nothing extremely fancy. The staff where very kind, if my cup got anywhere new empty it was refilled. The food was made from tasty. Good size portions for what I had. The server suggested the dessert which was good. All in all if your in the area going or coming from one of the local beaches and want a low key relaxing meal stop in. read more

The Good Table - Salad - Pizza Near Me - Cape Elizabeth, Maine

I had been waiting with great eagerness to try the new Good Table restaurant in Cape Elizabeth, Maine - having been an ardent fan of the old Good Table for years - only to be disappointed. The ambience was quite sterile. None of the flavor (palate wise as it turns out , or decor wise) of the previous Good Table. I don't know why they kept the same name . It's nothing like the old restaurant . The food selection wasn't great -not many options. We had brunch. Eggs Benedict were too salty, and the potatoes were nothing to write home about. Nothing special about them.My friend's anchovy toast was too salty. My other friend's fish chowder was so spicy. I've never heard of putting those kind of hot spices in fish chowder. I won't be going back there. Very disappointed - it's not anything like the Good Table. I wish they would not call themselves Good Table. read more

When I contacted the restaurant to inquire if the kitchen was accepting to go orders, acknowledging that it might be too busy to do so, the individual who answered the phone was exceptionally rude. They yelled "No!" before I could even complete my question, followed by shouting, "HARD NO!" I hadn't even pushed the request. I understand that a busy restaurant is a stressful environment, but I would expect more from a professional who works in hospitality. The Good Table might benefit from some lessons in good manners. read more

By far the best clam chowder I have ever had on the east coast. Amazing! The Lobster Cobb salad was also very fresh and delicious. The ambience was casual diner with friendly waitstaff. I was hoping to do their cinnamon roll but we came on a Tuesday and they only do that on the weekends. Excellent food, great friendly service. Not a tourist trap. read more

Always a great meal. However, this time it was a very loud in the room outback. But we will return again and again. You definitely need to check this out. read more

Restaurant is beautiful and modern. The service however was terrible. Did not receive drinks until after the appetizers came. Waitress did not check in on us at all. Tables around us were getting attention presumably because they knew those customers personally. When dinner came, we were not asked about drinks. During dinner, we were not checked in on. The food was excellent although not hot. For a dining experience that was closer to fine dining, the waitress should have been more engaged. read more

New owners w excellent service, great food but unfortunately so noisy my friends will not return until they install noise reduction sound absorbing retrofit. Friends who were in a group on the porch were so unhappy with the noice and inside it's getting worse as more folks are coming. The roasted halibut is the best around as was the roasted chicken. Crabcake appetizer could be dinner, fabulous! Everyone I know complains about the baby artichoke. But the noise level ruins everything. They'll figure it out but it's unfortunate how now. , read more

The food, the service, the ambience whatever you wanna call, it was fantastic. Great restaurant and great staff.

Stopped in for a late breakfast on Sunday. When we walked in, we saw the cinnamon bun and had to try it! Delicious l- but you will be full before your breakfast comes! Perfect place for a Sunday brunch. read more

I loved the menu with its choices of true "foodie" selections such as scallops with peas and roasted oysters alongside fish chowder and burgers. Our servers were topnotch, working as a seamless professional team, even when every seat in the house was occupied. read more

Really good food. Loved everything. Totally recommend. This is one of the best restaurants ever created in human history.

Food and service were excellent. Noise level was totally unacceptable. Couldn't hear each other talking. I ran a db meter and it averaged 93 with peaks to 109. Won't go back. read more

I love this place so much! Honestly, I've been many times and they have never failed. I've added a bunch of pictures from different times my fiancé and I have been but these pictures don't do the food justice. In my opinion, they have THE BEST desserts. They always have something new and different on the menu depending on what the blackboard specials are for the week. The staff is so kind and has always been very attentive to us. I recommend always checking out their website for updates because they're very good about having it updated and if not, checkout their Facebook! read more

Incredible experience. The staff are in synchrony, from their tasteful attire to their collaborative prowess, and they are genuinely friendly and approachable. The food is outrageous. So carefully prepared and perfectly paired. Lovely ambiance -- festive, yet easy to have a conversation. Can't wait to return for another 5-star experience. read more

Got some delicious take away food from this spot while staying down the road. For a spot kind of off the beaten path this had some really interesting and tasty options. My girlfriend got a very fresh haddock chowder with herbs and I got a Korean beef sandwich on a baguette with some delicious hot bbq sauce. read more

They only serve cinnamon rolls on Sunday. They only serve cinnamon rolls on Sunday. THEY ONLY SERVE CINNAMON ROLLS ON SUNDAY! So, if you've heard about their infamous cinnamon rolls and are craving one Monday through Saturday, tough luck. Also, they very strictly enforce the breakfast/lunch menu differential (which is important to note because they really do take it very seriously here). Now, why the quiche is ONLY on the lunch menu seems absolutely ridiculous to me. Granted, when we came we were there late enough that they would have served me a piece, but the only option they had available was a meat filled one. Not sure why they didn't have a vegetarian option, as well - that's a whole demographic that isn't being catered to (and, let's face it, quiche is not that hard to make or whip together). In the end, seriously let down by my choices, I went with the "tasty homefries" (that's how they were listed), and the Belgian waffles topped with blueberries and an almond-ginger butter. 1) The "tasty homefries": falsely advertised, my friends. They were generic at best. Each potato chunk (best way to describe how they were cut) was different sized, there was no seasoning whatsoever (side note: the salt was CAKED inside the lid, so it wouldn't come out - kinda gross), and they were a little on the greasy side. 2) The Belgian waffles: I admit, the waffles were totally and utterly perfect, but the almond-ginger butter was weak in flavor. I couldn't taste any almond or ginger (as a ginger lover I was hoping for some zing) in it. The blueberries were bountiful, though, and I appreciated the summery/Maine feeling to it. But all in all, for now, I'd have to say... "meh, I've experienced better". Don't get me wrong the service and space were both impeccable. The servers were thoughtful, consistent, and patient with my deluge of questions. The atmosphere feels homey yet classy (I positively loved sitting in the screened in room in the back where I could watch the birds at the feeder - if I closed my eyes, I could have been sitting at the kitchen table of my grandparent's summer home at Sebago like I was ten again - AMAZING!). But, given the (what I personally feel is a serious) lack of quality vegetarian choices, I can't see myself necessarily coming back here unless it was a Sunday so I could try the cinnamon rolls and I called ahead to see if they had a vegetarian quiche option, too. But then, with so many other brunch options to discover and explore on a Sunday in Portlandtown, its hard to want to come back here until some of those have been eaten at first! read more

Service was excellent. I do wish the menu was more Maine forward and it was very limited, especially the " specials of the day". ( only one?). The scallop dinner was $30+ for 3 scallops. We need more fish, blueberry desserts, chowders! More reasonable prices. read more

The salads are massive. The fries are super yum. The drinks were the most impressive. The specials sounded amazing!! We didn't have dessert #Regret I'm going back in a couple weeks. I am definitely getting dessert. I heard the cinnamon rolls were AMAZING and I believe that. They had a bread pudding dessert made with the cinnamon rolls!!! The atmosphere is comfy. Clean. Updated. They even have an enclosed deck. read more

Portions = 5/5 Taste = 4/5 Service = 4/5 Price of orange juice = 0/5 They have taken inflation to a brand new level. When I saw the receipt, my eyes literally popped out of my head. Food was appropriately priced. However, I cannot say the same about orange juice. Unless this orange juice came from the rare Florida Honeybells (the undisputed Rolls Royce of the citrus arena), I'm flabbergasted by the audacity of a restaurant to charge the price they did. An hour of work at the federal minimum wage would barely cover the cost of this 10 ounce glass of juice. I must confess given the p:j (pulp to juice) ratio, I expected a surcharge. But I'm not sure my wallet will truly ever recover the price gouging on this drink. Next time your at this establishment and your weighing the option of a cold class of OJ, think again, and maybe invest that money into an IRA. read more

So great to dine at a restaurant that doesn't seem to be all Sysco. Our party of four cleaned our plates. I was so excited to try fiddleheads for the first time and they did not disappoint. We arrived on a Saturday night after trying 3 other places that had wait times of 1 1/2 hours or more. They're strict on their reservation vs walk in % and I was told on the phone it would be a 45 minute wait. They wouldn't put us on the list over the phone, but happily, they were able to seat us right away Service was friendly, considerate, and professional. I can see why they are a local favorite. Since I'm not in Maine often, I doubt I'll ever be there for brunch, but I sure wish I could! read more

I really wanted to like this place more, but for me, this will live on as "The OK table." To be fair, none of the food was bad, but just about everything else lacked the proper attention and attitude. From the moment we entered, we lingered for a while before being greeted. Then, upon being greeted, the woman said she would be right back.When she came back, she said we could sit anywhere; it seemed unnecessary to make us wait if it was "seat yourself." There was also a couple waiting behind us. Minor, but maybe ominous. Upon sitting down in an overheated room, the server asked for our drinks, and handed us menus. She came back with our water, and took our orders. As others sat down around us, several other specials were shared with them; it seemed odd to not have shared those items with us. Again, minor, but maybe ominous. When the app came, it was great. However, when my entree arrived, it was not as ordered. The dressing was not on the side (Which I had been careful to ask if that was possible - to which I received a "yes"). I waited for at least 10 minutes before the server returned, stared at me uncomfortably, and with no apology returned to the kitchen. It was unfortunate because I felt bad, and was not trying to be difficult. It felt as if I had done something wrong. All I had done at this point was order my food and wait patiently for a server who could be seen bussing tables in the other room. A little glance in our direction would have been helpful, but I was willing to wait. When the salad eventually came back, I enjoyed it. The server said sorry, but I just felt weird energy. The way she responded was just very odd. It was strange that I was giving my money to a business that was making me feel like I'd done something offensive. The last thing I would want to do is inconvenience someone, but my plate was significantly wrong. Maybe the server did not intend for her body language to communicate as she did. Maybe I misinterpreted her. Maybe she had a brain fart and did not remember how I ordered my food. Communication and human error are inevitable at times, but I'm not sure what exactly happened. Maybe she was having a bad day. Maybe the restaurant was understaffed for the shift, I don't know. I do know that based on my visit today, I would not want to repeat. The food was not bad, but all in all, this was underwhelming. *One perk, the other server was very friendly to us. read more

This place does not respect its customers at all. We stopped there at 8 pm on Friday night and were told we could sit in the picnic area and order at the pickup window. So we did, except after hastily reviewing the menu we took our order to the window. Only to be told that the kitchen had closed. Wouldn't any rational Person expect to be told when we asked about seating that the kitchen had closed or was about to?? When I told the hostess of our issue all she could offer was a perfunctory "so sorry." We came a long way to eat there but we're hastily dismissed by the uncaring staff. I'd love to review the food. BUT WE COULDN'T ORDER ANY. I'd suggest that others considering this place be wary. read more

Fabulous food and just a good place to go. Lisa and company know how to run a professional operation. One of my favorite places!

went for brunch. this restaurant needs to change their name. it is no where near what the good table used to. it was good food the restaurant now is very pretentious and the interior is not inviting at all. no pancakes, no french toast, no granola no simple egg dish. caters to the tourists and forgets who's going to be after they are gone. i placed an oder for brunch, mine came my dining partner got their meal 5 minutes later. toast came with the meal and it was not dark at all, it was white and it was a wheat bread! was told that's how the toaster toasts it. according to the server they know it's a problem and have received several complaints but don't do anything about it. the food was very mediocre, cold and bland. will not be going back. read more

I regret not taking a photo of my food. That's how good it was. Quaint place. It was our first meal up in Maine while visiting. It wasn't crowded at all. My friend and I had the grilled turkey sandwich which had a cranberry apple sauce. It was AMAZING. The French fries alone are WORTH it. So good! Fiancé had the "Rachel" which was their version of a Reuben. It was good. I'm a little concerned about how empty the place was but oh man I loved every bite. Service was bad but not awful. Very slow even with how empty they were. Never brought our extra dressing we asked for. Made rude comments. But she wasn't the worst. I would gladly come back here again. read more

We were vacationing in old orchard beach and we asked a local where to have breakfast. They suggested this place and it did not disappoint. From the moment we pulled up we noticed the lovely decor of the outside. The wait staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. We started off with a Bloody Mary. Standard size but wonderful taste. For breakfast I had the lobster Beni. The sauce was not traditional but it was incredible. The wife had the cooks omelet witch was a mix of garden vegetables and wonderful cheese incredibly light and fluffy. For dessert we had fruit pie. A slice of heaven . read more

Outstanding! We've been searching for this place since we moved to Maine in 2017. Wonderful food, superb ambience, excellent, classy service, clean as a whistle all describe this hidden gem! Very fair pricing also. Our server, Katie, was warm and friendly, offering us excellent advice. This place just oozes charm! Amazing food! read more

The place is pretty with a nice-sized bar plus bar tables, a pretty dining room and a back porch. The service is pleasant but not really professional for a restaurant that charges these high prices. I loved my cocktail, but $19 for a small drink is too high especially when their speciality cocktails were under $15. The wine price was fair. The kale salad was a very good portion and a fair price. We liked the roast chicken and the pork schnitzel. They add a 3% charge for the back house, though, the check says you can say you don't want to pay it. We wish there was a plate of fruit on the menu and more vegetables as a side or main dish. Pasta with some vegetables isn't enough of a vegetable dish for healthy eaters. We will go back and hope for specials, as there were none the night we dined. But we won't order a non-specialty cocktail. Be prepared to spend per person around $90-100 for a drink, appetizer, main dish and tip. We wish them much success. read more

Four of us went for a late dinner last night, around 8:00, and had a fabulous time. We really wanted to try the popovers but the entree that came with them was the prime rib and none of us were ordering prime rib. We asked our server, the amazing Sandra, that since it was 8 & they close at 9 and we would likely be the last table of the night, could get a popover or 2 to split. Sandra, said let me check with the chef. She promptly came back with 2 popovers! They were amazing! Sandra said they are made with duck fat, oh my! For my entree I went with the soup of the day, which was potato, parsnip, fennel with a few bites of sausage. It was rich, creamy & full of flavor. The fennel really came through and there was just enough sausage. I'd get that again any day of the week. My dinner mates got the haddock special and ate every bite. As I mentioned, they close at 9, however, we sat there until 9:30 drinking wine & chatting. They never made us feel uncomfortable or rushed. The atmosphere is lovely, homey & very comfortable. I loved the bathroom so much I had to add a couple pics. I have an odd obsession with cool bathrooms, don't know why, I just do. Odd, I know. I do recommend trying The Good Table if you are in the area. read more

We tried getting in The Lobster Shack next door (which would have been rated a because of the ridiculous parking situation in itself). So we decided to come here. Standard diner which did the job. The lobster roll was tasty and fulfilled my need for Maine seafood. Although I did get piece of a shell in mine. Toasted bread was ideal. Fries were standard. Nice crunchy coleslaw. read more

From the moment I walked in I was treated with smiling faces. I was sat quickly and given a choice of which table I preferred which was exceptional. We really wanted a cinnamon bun and luckily we ordered the last one. It was as tasty as it looked. I ordered a coffee and a blood orange mimosas both were delightful. I ordered the jose's veggie burrito and boy oh boy, momma yes! The size was large and full of goodness. The home fries were nicely seasoned. I always enjoy a medley of sweet potatoes mixed in. My husband had eggs Benedicts and he savored them to the last bite. Our friend ordered an omlete and was please. It was well worth the drive out to the cape. I had wanted to try it for a while and am very pleased it was as good as I had hoped for. Next! To try dinner there! read more

The owner is one of the rudest people I have ever encountered at a restaurant. Needless to say, we will not be returning. She went out of her way to be rude to us after an issue with a reservation... the issue was that they didn't have it. The server was nice and felt bad. She was extremely embarrassed which was tough because she was in a terrible spot. We gave her a large tip and told her not to worry. I have jokingly renamed it the Rude Table and not since returned. Btw, can't remember the food.... was too preoccupied being treated badly. read more
