There were two hosts to greet me upon arrival. The space can be a little tricky to find if you've never been before.. if facing restaurant from the street you need to go to the right of it in a little alley way like spot and door is on your left in that space. The ambiance is upbeat and medium loud. Medium to dim lit with 7 or so spots at the bar and then tables near window or in dining room. There are wine, beer, and cocktail options. I had a blackberry cocktail with egg white, blackberry compote and gin. It was very good. Not too sweet or sour and light and fresh. The customers varied from older couples to dad and their kid to people in their early to mid 30's.

When traveling for work, I try to get food that I would cook for myself at home and this was that kind of meal. The one "odd" thing was the insane amount of salt on their fries. They were fried perfectly, shoe string like, but I had to take my fingers and dust off the salt. I love salt! But they were WAY over done. Otherwise this is a nice spot. I will come back next time I'm in town.

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.

We were completely blown away by Timber Kitchen. Honestly, this was the best meal we had during our…read moreentire trip through Maine and New Brunswick. We tried the lobster bisque, lobster mac & cheese, a burger with truffle fries, a wood-fired pizza, and finished with the homemade Maine blueberry pie from their in-house pastry chef. Every single dish was outstanding. The flavors, quality, and execution were exceptional from start to finish. The biggest surprise? It's located in a Residence Inn. Don't let that fool you--this is a destination restaurant in its own right. A special thanks to our server, Nick, whose recommendations were spot on. He was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely helped make an already fantastic meal even better. Hands down, one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time and easily the best food we had anywhere in Maine or Canada during our trip.

A friendly bartender, and even a friendly couple from VA, made for some pleasant company. Now, warm butter on a lobster roll means you probably have to work back from 5 stars, right? But there was no reason to think lower score. Easy 5 stars. The food was delicious. And after the flight at Mason's earlier, then a pint and the lobster roll dish here, my sweet tooth kicked in and a nice ice cream sundae took care of that. Nice spot for sure!

Dinner on a Thursday night in July. We sat in the upstairs dining room. Great ambiance, 6 tables…read more Service was very good, food was variable. I had the crab cakes which were delicious but small for anyone with an appetite. The salad was fresh and well sized. My husband had the duck and it looked very good, he liked it. I opted for the scallops and risotto- I'd say it was the least tasty of the apps and entrees. Scallops were excellent but the risotto was a bit odd. It was a massive serving with lots of ingredients but lacked flavor. Raspberry Crème Brûlée for dessert was just OK. Love the outdoor rooftop bar. Will try that for a drink before dinner on our next visit. There are cute rooms with pool table, seating and games. Complimentary valet service. Will be back!

We started with brussel sprouts, which were very tasty, just a bit salty. I usually get the salmon or halibut-I went for pan seared scallops. Excellent choice! I do not use a lot of salt at home, so again, a bit salty. My friends enjoyed the fish tacos and grilled shrimp. More fish on the tacos and a little less salt would have made this a five star review. Overall, still my favorite spot. The bar, the restaurant, the dragonfly decor -- nothing but love! Maybe I'll secure the old bank vault room when I graduate with my Master's degree in May 2025.

The fried rice cake that accompanied the fish was a tasty addition. The asparagus was nicely cooked. There is an upscale ambiance to the restaurant. If you fly in to go to the coast or mountains this would be a nice place to stop for dinner. It's nice without being fussy (though you will not experience fussy in Bangor anywhere).

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.
