Dinner with my family. We traveled from St. Louis and we're very tired after the very early flight, transfer at Chicago, driving to visit Bowdoin so decided just dining around the hotel. This restaurant is fantastic- good service, excellent rib and wings, great special (my son loves it), and fresh seafoods. The experience was great to my family. read more

Food and vibe is excellent. Great service and friendly staff. Will definitely revisit next time in town.

Always have a great time here! My husband and I come here often. It's our favorite local date night spot

its too expensive for mediocre food. the ambiance is ok. the waiter had a don't give a shit attitude. Not the best choice here in lewiston.

Always amazing food and the best ambiance in the Lewiston-auburn area. Must try for a nice date night

Terrific historic location with parking and excellent menu offerings. Lewiston is fortunate to have this quality restaurant located along one of the city's canals. I ordered the tuna salad plate. Delicious bread served with every entree. read more

As the only fine dining restaurant in Lewiston, I find myself here often for work dinners. Unfortunately, I get sick about half the time I eat at Fish Bones. I have a seafood allergy and I thought it was from cross contamination, but speaking with colleagues this is apparently a common experience. I wish Lewiston had more options! I miss Fuel. read more

Took the wife here for a date night. Upon entry we were happily greeted and seated immediately. Restaurant is spacious and clean yet has nice seating for couples who want privacy. Waitress was pleasant and took our drink and apps order. Food was top notch and my tuna steak was cooked perfectly. I enjoy Fish Bones because it's fancy but not over the top pricing or dressy like for example (Primo) in Rockland. Highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Great place to grab some comfort food and relax. Great ambiance and atmosphere. It felt very "New England" and local. The food was terrific. The bread basket was amazing! I had the brisket bun with French onion soup, loved it all. I'll definitely be going back here! read more

Our party of 10 headed to Fish Bones to celebrate a birthday and for my family to spend time with my in-laws from Germany. As we waited for the entire party to arrive, our waiter introduced himself and took a drink order. He had the coolest accent (Polish) and demeanor. Once everyone had arrived, we were seated at our table near the open kitchen. Awesome table! Everyone tried different drinks and appetizers - all excellent. We had oysters, lobster Rangoon flat bread pizza and calamari. My meal was really good, which was salmon and mussels in the shell. My dad had the ribeye steak, and he loved it. We had such a great evening, and will definitely stop by again when in the L.A. area. read more

First Look: The interior of Fish Bone is clean, uncluttered and comfortable. The hostess seated us immediately and was very polite. The waiter was excellent; he was able to answer every question that was asked about the menu and the bar selection, offered suggestions for dinner and dessert and was generally superb. The Food: I started off with several appetizers: the lobster Rangoon which was awesome, the oysters, which in my opinion we're a little gritty but I'm not a huge fan of oysters in any case, the calamari was the best calamari I've ever had from anywhere, they were tender and flavorful and just amazing. The bread basket was great with three different kinds of bread. The Caesar salad was also pretty great. Anyway the entrée was definitely a star. I got the special for the night which was a lobster dinner which included a pound of lobster, red potatoes, asparagus, mussels, and clam chowder all of which were fantastic. The lobster was tender and flavorful, the potatoes could have used a little salt, the mussels a little less garlic, the asparagus, which normally I loathe, was great, and the chowder left me speechless. I finished up with some pumpkin cremé brulee, which was a perfect way to finish the meal. The Verdict: Without a doubt Fish Bone is the seafood restaurant of choice in Auburn and probably the surrounding 15 or 20 miles. If you're looking for lobster, haddock, or any other seafood, hit this place as soon as you can. read more

Stop this nonsense. I am sure that, in Lewiston, Maine, this passes for fine dining. I did not grow up in Lewiston, but grew up in a similar town which, like Lewiston, plays second fiddle to other towns. The need to have something special in a second rate town causes people to overvalue the good things that they have in that town. Fish Bones is a good example of that phenomenon. Sorry, folks, it's nothing special. You could get the same satisfaction from eating a meal at a well-run Ruby Tuesday's. Among other things, a place that gives you a beer bottle and only after serving asks you if you want a glass is not ready for the big screen. The salad had old iceberg lettuce. I stopped eating my entree' because I was rather sure that if I ate the whole gooey thing I would be sick. I'm sure this is great for Lewiston, but it's nothing to be proud of. read more

Never disappointed by Fishbones! One of my favorite lunch spots in the LA area. French onion soup...excellent, coffee...what it should be, fig bleu cheese flatbread...amazeballs! Fishbones spiffs up the Dirty Lew just a bit and renews our faith in the potential of the mid-state, urban scene. Don't reserve this restaurant for occasional dinners. Come in and check out their fabulous lunch menu. The quality, flavors, and prices will make you a frequent lunch flyer. *Special note* Kudos to the seating hostess who clearly has her act together! Not only did she seat us, got our waters poured whilst we were waiting for our waitress, but she also ran interference for us to help alleviate kitchen/waitstaff congestion. She is obviously invested in the diner's experience and not her own personal comfort. She saw needs and filled them. Other restaurants: take note! read more

My grandmother died last September, and after her funeral a group of 12 of us went to Fish Bones to have dinner, to celebrate my grandmother. Maybe it was the fact that the 12 of us hadn't sat at a table together since my grandfather died, but we had great conversations. They sat us in a corner and let us be, but we had great service - always showing up when we wanted it, but more or less letting us flow. We got drinks promptly, and food arrived at the right time. Everything tasted great and was cooked well, and the atmosphere was cozy without being claustrophobic - interesting because the place was fairly open. read more

Excellent meal from the Maine Restaurant Week menu. The seafood medley with baked haddock and shrimp and scallop skewers was perfectly cooked and moist and the sauce was flavorful without being overpowering. Service was friendly and attentive and well-paced. read more

Loved this place. On a Wednesday night, wicked busy. Our table was not ready so we found one in the bar. Was thinking we would stay there but then they came and got us. We were seated in the the smaller if two dining rooms. Quieter nice area, beautiful beams. Great waiter. Goat cheese and strawberry salad to start. Wonderful. Awesome seared tuna with Asian slaw and Jasmine rice. An amazing Salmon dish, and one haddoc dish. All wonderfully perfect. Creme brulee and key lime pie for deserts. $100 per couple including drinks and tip. A little pricey but worth the value. read more

I've been here twice: the first was for lunch. I ordered the chowder and it was delicious, and my entree was baked haddock which was overcooked and dried out. The service was great, but the meal was underwhelming. The second time I was here for dinner, I ordered the scallops which come with pork belly. The pork belly was dry and the scallops were okay, the flavors came together well and the sauce was great. The calamari and lobster rangoon were super good, but the crab fondue fell flat for me. I will probably give this restaurant another try in the near future and will update. The atmosphere was great and there were lots of beers to choose from. read more

Food is decent. Drinks are good. Clean and pleasant atmosphere. It can get very busy especially if there are many things happening at Bates; so I would definitely recommend a reservation on the weekend . read more

Excellent place. Was so glad we went here. Loved the sea food. Fresh and so gooood. The servers were all pleasant. And the food came in time after we placed the order. The place is also very lively and decor industrial but still charming. read more

Fish Bones American Grill was a really nice surprise. I went there with some friends last weekend and the decor was classy, the restaurant was located in an old renovated mill and it was beautiful. I had a dirty martini that was fabulous and my friend got a crocodile? I think? Maybe an alligator? One of the two. It was an unlikely mix of 4 different types of alcohol, but it looked beautiful and she said it tasted really good. I ordered the pan seared tuna on a bed of sauteed veggies and rice. It was delicious. This place isn't cheap, but if you want to treat yourself or take someone out to impress, take them to Fish Bones. read more

I have never had a bad meal at Fishbones, and sometimes I have had excellent food. This place is especially good for Maine Restaurant Week. Make sure to try the Lobster Rangoons. They are so sweet they could be dessert. The challenge I have is that sometimes the menu is a little limited, and if you don't want seafood that evening it is pretty hard to find something to eat. Once we just ordered a glass of wine and appetizer and went elsewhere for dinner. If you are a seafood lover, this is a terrific place. If not take your chance during MRW when you can see the menu online. read more

We went to Fish bones for dinner Saturday and really enjoyed it. The NCAA hockey tournament was in town so they were slammed. I have to say, the service didn't suffer. It was quick and friendly and he offered some nice recommendations. I had the Seafood Pomodoro Papardelle: lobster, mussels, scallops, tiger shrimp, and white fish in a tomato Parmesan sauce over pasta. It was very nicely done. Each of the seafood items were properly cooked and tasty. My wife had the toasted sea scallops and really enjoyed them. I really like the atmosphere and am pleased to see that they have put the old mill to good use. We'll be back the next time we're in Lewiston. read more

It is so nice to finally have a good place to eat in L/A. Fish Bones is a gorgeous renovated brick building with nice ambience. It can be noisy with no fabric to absorb sound. The menu is good but I would like to see them freshen it up with some new flavors, how about shrimp and grits with rotating preparations? My haddock was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. Service and timing could be improved. Try Fish Bones. I think you will like it. read more

Our wservice was absolutely amazing, but the food was awful. Sorry, but we will not be back; the service was the only thing that makes us even consider going back, nothing else. read more

I came here on a Wed for lunch with two co-workers. I am visiting from California on a work trip and was excited to try a lobster roll. My co-worker said, "A good lobster roll has very little dressing, so you can taste the lobster." I ordered the lobster roll and asked for very little dressing. The waitress said it is pre-prepared and the amount of dressing can't be changed, but she'll hold the mayo. Sounds good to me. . . I noticed right away that there was way too much dressing. I couldn't even imagine what it would be like with the extra mayo. There was TOOOOOOOO much dressing. The sandwich is small and it's very hard to eat. There's a cut out in a small loaf like bread. A bed of lettuce with the lobster on top of it. I looked and tried at every angle to get a first perfect bite - this was my first lobster roll ever. I ended up eating 1/2 the bread, all the lobster. It was not that great. I would not recommend. I will not return and am disappointed. I looked at other lobster roll pictures (from other high Yelped restaurants) and they are not overdressed like this one. No bueno! read more

Met some relatives for lunch at Fish bones today. And I really hate to be the bearer of bad news. I ordered the steak and cheese wrap with fries.:( The grease poured out of the wrap every time I picked it up and the fries had some type of coating on them and were cold . I enjoyed the coffee and the waitress was excellent.. And my sisters seafood chowder looked nothing like the one in the picture.. read more

We arrived at Fish Bones for a mid-afternoon lunch on Veterans Day, and were in before 3:00 pm. The ambiance of Fish Bones is classy-casual, with the exposed bricks and beams of the 19th-century mill that it occupies looking elegantly historic. Fish and seafood are featured on the menu, of course, but it's worth noting that the place does *not* come across as a Maine Fish Restaurant such as you would find on mid-coastal Route 1 -- and that's a good thing. We started with the Ahi Tuna Crisps, which are cubes of raw yellowfin tuna, well seasoned and served with vegetables on four fried wonton triangles. We ordered them dairy-free, which meant no "cusabi" (that's wasabi cream, btw) on them and we didn't miss it at all; the honey-ginger sauce was enough to make them refreshing and tasty. For her main dish, my mom ordered the seafood Mixed Grill, which came with one seared/blackened sea scallop, one jumbo shrimp (these two skewered), and a generously sized haddock filet. Again, she ordered dairy-free and didn't miss the lobster crema that they come with. The haddock filet was "cooked perfectly," says Mom, and the shrimp and scallop were "al dente" (heads up!) which is just the way she prefers. The seafood was served with Brussels sprouts and mashed potato (homemade, with skins). Both the side dishes were lukewarm, which Mom didn't mind and thought was intentional, but I was not so sure (?). I had the Wild-Caught Haddock Sandwich: a very large and delicious beer-battered haddock fillet on a brioche bun with greens, onions, shredded cheese, and other goodies. It was quite delicious! The "Penobscot fries" on the side deserve a special note: they are a thinner, crispier, and far superior alternative to steak fries. Really excellent. All in all, Fish Bones served us a well-prepared and affordable lunch (neither lunch entree was over $13). We'll be back again to this mid-upscale restaurant that adds variety to the LA dining scene. read more

Really good food, consistently great service. Can't miss the poutine and pulled pork!

Very good! We stayed at the hotel down the street and this was in walking distance. All the food was delicious! At night it tends to be more of a fancy crowd so leave your T-shirt and jeans at home. Lesson learned! read more

This place is comfortable and beautifully understated. The food is really delicious staff is professional without being too much. I love the fancy poutine on the apps menu read more

Crispy calamari and lobster Rangoon are outstanding appetizer choices. Service is prompt with a smile. Drinks do not skimp on the alcohol. The fresh baked crusty white bread and zucchini bread served with whipped butter in a wrought iron basket is a delicious and rustic touch to any meal. The filet was served in a frying pan. Not my first choice of serving vessel. The filet and its accompanying potatoes bacon and sauce reduction were outstanding. The special of the evening was a mushroom tortellini in a cream sauce with pan seared scallops. The scallops here are always outstanding. The house made tortellini was a little undercooked for my taste. Desert is a course you do not want to skip. The house made ice cream is great. The cream brûlée is always perfect. read more

On e of the best places in the LA area. Pricey, sure, but worth every bit of it. The drinks, the entrees, (we went as a family of four) were all beyond wickedly delicious. I had the salmon and it was done perfectly, just perfectly, and salmon is my favorite dish anywhere. I've been four times so far and I plan to keep right on going. The staff, the menu, the atmosphere are all top shelf. I have read some bad reviews here on Yelp of Fish Bones, but for me, it's never been bad at all. read more
