It was the very best meal we have had here (and we have had a lot of wonderful meals). For our first courses, the tuna tartare was so fresh and paired perfectly with the homemade chips. My husband had the mussels and the broth was drinkable, it was so delicious. We both had the filet for our mains. They were perfectly cooked medium rare with craveworthy pave potatoes. We sat at the bar and Courtney was a wonderful host/server/bartender working the perfect balance of conversation and privacy.

Our server brought out drinks very quickly and checked on us in a timely manner. The star of the show was the mussels appetizer. I have had many mussels in my life and this would be in my top three favorites. The sauce was so flavorful, mussels were cooked PERFECTLY, and it came with the best focaccia I have ever had. Our entrees were just as flavorful . We both paired pastas with a glass of montepulciano which was delicious. Highly recommend a dinner here if you need a pasta break from lobster rolls!

Porcelli's was just what we were hoping for as wrapped up our time in Bar Harbor. We were greeted…read moreby name by the host and seated promptly. Madison our server was friendly, attentive and helpful throughout our meal. The restaraunt offers both indoor and outdoor seating. We had the restaurant to ourselves initially so I cannot speak for the acoustics but overall Porcelli's offers a nice atmosphere for dinner. My family of four were eager to enjoy an Italian meal after days of traditional New England style meals. We began with the Strawberry & Burrata Salad and the Polpetti (meatballs with polenta). The starters were okay but the stars of the show came next. Our boys each enjoyed the halibut served with risotto. My husband had the Cacio e Pepe. He said it was as good as any he had while in Rome. I had the Gnocchi Mushroom Ragu. It was one of the top Gnocchi dishes I have had the pleasure of enjoying. Our ten year old son said it was the best gnocchi he has ever had. The texture of the gnocchi and the flavors of the sauce made for a flawless dish. The chef makes all pastas in-house and you can tell. The pasta dishes are exceptional! The entree portions are generous so you won't mind sharing a bite or two with your dining companions. I only wish we would have discovered this gem earlier in our trip. Do yourself a favor and make a reservation at Porcelli's.

The greens were tough and took up most of the salad. Other than beats and a couple of bits of onion and a few olives there was anything else in it.

It is that special!!

I've been to Delvino's multiple times. Was there last night- food great, service was good. But…read moreambiance was lacking. Mainly due to it being SO hot in the building. We overheard that the A/C was out, which I would've appreciated knowing before we were sat. Even with a reservation they placed us at a table that felt very cramped - so that coupled with the heat led to a less than stellar dining experience. While I will be back, but I will not be back in the summer/a hot day.

We started with spanakopita, which is baked and made of layers of phyllo dough, spinach, fresh herbs, ricotta cheese, and feta cheese. For dinner I had the mushroom pasta, which incorporated fresh pappardelle with locally sourced mushrooms. It was in a cream sauce, but the sauce was subtle and didn't overwhelm the dish. I also got the meatballs, which were so flavorful and delicious. My wife had the comfort bowl, which was breaded chicken over Maine mashed potatoes. But what took this over the top was the pear/apple compote and fried leeks. The owner spent some time with us talking about the dishes, the locally sourced ingredients (some from her garden) and Bangor. It was a nice night and a restaurant that I'd return to if I was back in Bangor.

The star of the show was their chocolate mousse which was some of the best we have had in a long time!

We had the place to ourselves for the first hour or so very quaint and we had the pick of a table. The server was superb with her knowledge and suggestions on what to try. We had a bottle of wine "Nebbiolo" which was so good and our meals (pork w/mushrooms) & Bolognese with all fresh ingredients. The only thing we did notice was the amount of food served on very large plates. Could have had a bit more of everything just saying. Also complimented the Chef throughout to the server and she said he loves to hear people's compliments but when leaving and he just barely acknowledged our compliments. Maybe he was tired but how often do you get a chance to compliment someone especially "The Chef" on their expert cooking. Anyway would we come back in the future but it does have a limited menu so best to check before making any plans.
