First off, it wasn't as pricey as we expected! The people from Twelve and "small" plates? Yes, but the small plates were large and the prices somewhat more digestible (and entrées are available). Secondly, we didn't expect such swank! There never used to be places in Maine where you felt a bit underdressed and now there are several. Not sure that's such a good thing but what's great is the food and service: Swift, delicious, mostly local and we were glad they knew from where their larger shrimp originated (N. Carolina). A crab dip special, squash side (seasonal), cataplana, and pork pica pau really stood out, while the fried calamari was boring and part of the potatas bravas was beyond double fried. One problem was that the only bottles of wine under $40 were not available. Still we were four guests and shared one $40ish bottle, a cocktail, lots of food and a fabulous lemon bar (best ever?) and the total was $260. Not cheap but similar to most restaurants in its class. Can't wait to try brunch! read more
