    The staff here are exceptional! They are attentive, professional and very hard workers! Ben the…read moremanager is fantastic at keeping the staff calm and runs the restaurant like a well oiled machine! Deb and Aylah are absolutely the best bartenders around! They are patient, kind and always aware of what their diners need or what they may be ready for next. Deb is very knowledgeable about the menu and has tried everything, got my husband to try salmon and he never eats seafood! He enjoyed it, but steak is still his favorite! Ryan is a hard worker with a big heart, goes out of his way to wait on his diners and always jumping in to help out his coworkers wether it be with making their drinks or helping out anyway he possibly can. It was a busy night on this hot Friday evening and some diners may have left this evening not very happy with their experience, however, maybe if they had a bit of patience and looked around, they would have realized they were not the only ones dining out this evening and maybe, just maybe, they could have relaxed, take a drink or 2, enjoyed the atmosphere, the people around them and be willing to wait an extra 5 or 10 minutes for ketchup for their burger or even help the busy staff out by reminding the servers nicely, could I have some ketchup please? Realizing these people are people too and are busting their butts to provide you with a relaxing dining experience. They are doing their best in a very busy environment with many diners. I think you can wait a few minutes for ketchup remind them nicely without having a tantrum because you waited a few extra minutes. And ou'...Amy is great! She has been doing this a long time! She is friendly, professional and amazing at what she does! She goes out of her way to make patrons feel welcome and helps her coworkers to work their tables! The kitchen staff, while I do not know any of them, I imagine they work their tails off just like everyone else! The GM should be proud of the staff they have working here and how they kindly deal with all the personalities of the patrons that dine at this establishment, the great, the good, the bad, and the terrible. Nice job everyone!! You are seen and you are much appreciated for all you do!

    We came for my birthday dinner since I had posted on FB asking for best wing recommendations and so…read moremany people had mentioned LCG. It was a bit disappointing that they had ran out of wings from the previous wing night though - how can you have the best wings but not be stocked all the time? :( We ended up with the taquitos instead, my fiance got the cajun sandwich per our waitress's recommendation (flavorful and juicy) and I got the chicken piccata with linguine (good and dandy). With how many raved about the wings, I still want to come back and try them, and hopefully they'll have them in stock. There's a couple of street parking spots in front of the restaurant, but there's also a parking lot across the street near the water.

    We wanted to try someplace new and live in southern Maine, so we took a quick half our drive across…read morethe line and saw this place on yelp. We don't drink, so we got cokes and started with the Reuben egg rolls. They were good, but may be better with they had like a crispy won tonnie texture to them. Then we each had a steak and my partner also got chicken. The food was cooked the opposite of what we'd asked, so we figured they must have just switched them up by mistake. No problem, things were still delicious and fine. The waitress was delightful, efficient and quick, we thought about dessert but settled on heading out. Over all, cute place, had live music and an upstairs section. The service was good and the prices on par with the rest of the dining out world. I would never have known this place existed if we didn't think to try something new!

    The staff are outstanding and we are always impressed with your food, the amazing flavors and…read morecreations. You are incredibly talented and creative...so impressive. My husband always seems to be disappointed at restaurants by what sounds wonderful and then end up bland. Well, everytime we dine at Stalk, he is so satisfied. We always went to Portmouth for an outstanding experience in dining...now the gemstone is in our neighborhood, your cozy delightful Stalk. Thank you!

    I always feel so much better after visiting Stalk-it's a light in the darkness, when things feel so…read moredark that you feel swallowed up by it. A cook, myself, I've been held prisoner in jobs that make one feel discouraged due to indifference and laxity. Eating here, taking in the pride of craft and respect for the clientele makes me realise that places -and people-do exist that truly care about about the customer and strive to make them forget their lives outside the comforting walls of this restaurant. We shared a couple of apps: a crispy-skin chicken leg, indeed crispy and as usual, perfectly cooked, as usual. there are few greater pleasures in life like chicken that is juicy and cooked with an expert hand. It came with excellent ricotta mashed potatoes so good my daughter-who normally refuses to eat mashed potato-had to be fended off with my fork so Dad could swipe a couple forkfuls! The dark, flavorful sauce complimented both the meat and the potatoes. We also got the charred Halloumi cheese with pork belly with sweet and sour grapes and a whiff of finely chopped sage, again having to fend off my daughter for my portion...I was detecting a trend here... For the main courses, my wife got the Black Cod with nicely browned fingerling potatoes and braised cabbage/asparagus. She rarely ate unbreaded fish until Stalk introduced her to exquisitely cooked and seasoned fish filets. My daughter got the mushroom and eggplant kofta with a superb cashew hummus and grilled pita that was cooked with love-grilled enough to get grill marks, but not so long as to cook the life out it-they were still soft and fluffy, with just enough crisp to make scooping the hummus practicable. I got, against my usual practice of eating through the menu (as much as possible during a recipe cycle) to get the Sweet Potato Cavatelli-this is one of those dishes that I could never get often enough. the pasta dishes here are unfailingly excellent, with little culinary surprises in every one-this one, for me, in a dish with sausage AND pork belly no less, the unifying surprise is the Balsamic black butter! It just made every bite taste,,,right, perfectly complimenting the dish and making a delightfully whole flavour profile that one would not, perhaps, expect at a first blush. Taken with the Almond Romesco, it gave a slightly sweet, acidic depth that woke and gratified my palate. Again, as a cook, I appreciate the care and consideration on display that a dish such as this displays. It makes me happy... Our desserts, sadly a harbinger of the meals' approaching end, left us with a nice parting glow-the Coconut Rice pudding-with a mango compote, ginger candied cashews and flashy cherry crisps was nice, light finisher, as was the, wait for it, English pea Mojito ice cream. This follows the Mad Scientist-esque genius of Stalk's ice creams. The unbridled exuberance on display with the ice cream flavours, always makes me lean towards the ice creams over many other fine and tempting desserts...this was no exception. The peas provided a subtle pea flavor, the chill mellowing the flavor we typically associate with peas, but not losing it, is worth a victory lap on its own. The zest of lime and a nicely chiffonaded mint layered on the finishing touches without overtaking the finish, a sign of the practiced hands at work. I also must make mention of the French Press coffee service, there is truly no better way to take your coffee than via a French Press, it is so very nice to indulge in this simple life pleasure outside of my own kitchen... I would be terribly remiss if I didn't give a shout out to the staff-from the exceedingly professional and courteous staff, to the bartender who was very engaging and free with her smiles all night, the professionals preparing our dinner, who deserve much credit for turning Chefs' vision into delicious and intruiging plates of food for all of us to enjoy, and finally to Chef Nicole, who is everywhere making sure everything is running as smooth as possible, yet taking the time to chat with the patrons whenever possible. Our trips to Stalk are almost a pilgrimage-a reminder that cooking can be a joy, and that striving for that goal of making the diner perhaps, through the care and excellence of the food and its preparation, make them forget the nonsense outside the walls of the restaurant for even just an hour or so. This a lofty and noble goal, and one, for this diner, is always met. I hope it is for you, as well
