    Beautiful setting, incredible food presented as a work of art. The chef provided many little extras in addition to the nine course tasting menu. Lots of seating options - dine alone, at a communal table or at one of the fairy-like greenhouses. We were full to the brim at the end. Worth it!!

    Lovely remote setting on a rolling hill with sweeping views. This photo is of the Aragosta "Manager", Daniel at 3pm Sunday, smoking and talking on his phone, during service while every table was occupied, taken as we were driving out of Aragosta. Says it all. Made advance reservation including inputting my credit card as required. Drove three hours downeast from midcoast area and arrived 20 minutes early for 2 pm brunch reservation. By 2:30 all tables were occupied. Hostess, Scarlet, explained that all vacant shaded tables outside were reserved. I said "great, we have a reservation". She demurred. I asked "why is my reservation is less important? ". Her response was, "I'm sorry and we have more umbrellas coming next week". We were seated at an unbussed table indoors with Scarlet saying she'd be back to clean it. She never came back, so we sat down, as we tired of standing awkwardly over the table waiting. 20 minutes of more waiting to give an order for brunch. Ordered a glass of Pet Nat which was about a three-ounce pour served in what appeared to be a child's juice glass. Was delicious, though. The food Oysters and mignonette were superb. My main course, a burrata veggie "salad" was nice with crunchy veggies, but must have been a starter portion. My wife's lobster roll was mostly a bulky frank roll and both the modest portion of lobster meat and a tablespoon full of potato salad were not chilled, so likely in the over-40 degree food safety danger zone. Waited and waited to ask about desert. Lots of staff circulating but no one stopping to check in. Daniel never greeted our table but was fawning over a couple of elderly local ladies who arrived after we did, at the adjacent table who asked to be relocated outside. "Let's do it" was his response, after the run-around Scarlet gave us. We eventually put our credit card in plain view, paid and left, highly disappointed, especially with the complete lack of engagement from the floor staff. Had the distinct impression that were we viewed as low priority for Daniel and the Crew. No sense of warmth or caring hospitality. We had anticipated a much more special experience.

    Five stars for the pizza! Recommended by a friend, so I decided to check it out. I chose a…read moremargherita pie this time. Fantastic pizza! Now I will recommend it to others. Cool little spot, almost a backyard feel. Employees were kind and helpful.

    Wow wow wow! I think this was the overall best brewery we visited while in Maine! The beer and the…read morefood were incredible! Add in the ambiance and you get this gem in Ellsworth. We walked over from the main strip of downtown and loved the vibe as soon as we arrived. Walking down the stairs to get to the brewery versus the glass blowing shop was so cute. With apples on the ground from the apple trees, it couldn't be more "Maine". When walking in, you order at the bar for both food and drink and then there is a booth/trailer out back where the food comes out. The inside is set up for open mic night and then outside they have a full stage where they host live music. There is plenty of seating outside at the picnic tables as well. We ordered a couple beers, the Margherita pizza, the potato chips, and the Carrot Top salad. I cannot tell you howwwwwwwww amazing the salad was!! I have never had a salad like this and I ate every last bite. The roasted carrots were so good, combined with the crispy onions and the dressing; it was heaven. The chips were incredible and the dip that comes with it just elevates it that much more. I believe it was a pickle dip of some sort? I can't remember specifically, just that I needed a vat of it. Then the pizza?! We couldn't finish it but man did we want to! Add all this tasty food to a beautiful backdrop and we were the happiest little foodies in Maine. Hands down best stop in Ellsworth!
