Easy walk from the Limerock Inn. Wait staff and service was friendly and attentive. My wife had haddock and I enjoyed their crab cakes. Both were very good and were great on a coolish evening. We even split their carrot cake which was up to my wife's standards (she loves carrot cake).

Absolutely great! 2 breakfast dishes, 2 from the lunch menu. Out of 3 lobster rolls (at different spots) while in the midcoast this one was the best. The service is always spot on, what a great crew! Thank you Brass Compass!

We were pointed to the refrigerator case and assured they were made that day...wow. The daily lentil soup was too spicy and the building lacked any personality. Overall, there are better options and I wouldn't choose this again.I am sorry you did not enjoy our place. We worked very hard to satisfy our customers. As for the sandwiches. the Bread Crew is here until 3 AM baking our delicious breads every day year round, and our cook come at 5 and make all this wonderful sandwiches. Our daily left over are donated every day to the food pantry, churches as well as the Travis Mills Foundation and they have not been disappointed so far. The lacked of personality of our building must be because we are one of the oldest running business in Rockland. I hope Mr Anonymous855 that you will give us another try.

Not impressed. We both had the sirloin steak. I asked for med-rare it came well done. Lots of grizzle. Hard to cut with knife. My potato looked and tasted like it was cooked yesterday, then nuked. My mom said her steak nothing special. Over all the restaurant was clean, friendly staff. Nicely decorated. However the food in my opinion wasnât that great.

Stopped here for lunch after visiting the Farnsworth Museum. We had a short wait for a table, but the place is small and busy, and folks were coming in and giving their name and going out to wait. I had the Wee Meat Pies, an empanada made with brined and smoked pulled port with black beans and more. They were beyond tasty! My wife had the Honky Tonk egg rolls that need to be seen to be believed. They have house smoked chicken with cabbage, cilantro, basil and more. They are her go to favorite. So much, so good, from such a small space.

Home Kitchen is a SMALL place with incredible food and great service. They manage to accomodate loads of customers quickly while maintaining courtesy and good humor. I had the Chef's Salad (HUGE! almost couldn't finish it), and my husband had the Pastrami & Swiss sandwich, which he loved ("lean but juicy, perfectly prepared"). The homemade blue cheese dressing is to die for. Will definitely be back

In Good Company is a small restaurant featuring very fresh ingredients. We very much enjoy their appetizers. They have a good wine list and attractive options for entrees. A local halibut dish had a very flavorful corn and mushroom bed. Unfortunately, the halibut was somewhat overcooked, which is not difficult to do with the tender fish. It is not as tasty when that happens.The front room has a metal ceiling and it became quite loud the night we visited as a group of four at the bar was talking loudly and some other tables had voices that carried or raised their voices to be heard. Noise management is something to pay attention to.

We had visited Primo several times in the past, and returned during our recent visit to Rockland. In fact, Primo was a major reason for our visit, and we enjoyed two meals while staying in the area. Melissa Kelly and staff continue to shine! The menu is very creative, utilizing interesting ingredients, many of which are from Melissa's farm, and the food is beautifully presented. The service is professional, gracious and relaxed. The wine list is exceptional and fairly priced. Primo remains a destination place for us, and, obviously, for others. We wish Melissa many more years of continued success and we hope to return to Primo soon!

My husband and I have had numerous meals at The Slipway since it reopened after a year off. We have been beyond impressed by the creativity and quality of the food, as well as the exceptional service. We tend to order share plates from the always awesome, always rotating specials board and even after being fairly regular visitors for years weâve been blown away in 2019! Do yourself a favor and visit The Slip if you get a chance!

(Thomaston Cafe was closed for a while, and reopened under new management with a grand opening 10 Nov 2017 -- so don't pay any attention to reviews before that.) We went mid-morning on a beautiful Sunday, our first visit since the original Thomaston Cafe closed -- and there was almost no one there, maybe two other tables. My wife ordered crab cake benedict -- two thick crab cakes with perfectly poached eggs and hollendaise on a crispy grilled English muffin ($13) -- and declared it excellent. My prime rib quesadilla (also $13), on the other hand, was nothing to rave about. Both came with a side of uninspired red potato homefries. The regular coffee, drunk black, was good. The decaf, my wife felt, was watery (but, then, she always tarts it up with sugar and cream, so it needs to be robusto to withstand that.) Service was adequate, certainly the opposite of intrusive. Altogether pretty much an average experience.
