When we showed up there was a slow moving line to get I. The door to order. The weather was showing impending doom but we were not deterred. I have had quite a few lobsters in my life but this goes down as some of the largest ones I've ever eaten. You order your lobster by relative poundage and the. They get them and weight them to figure out your total. Everything except for butter is an extra. We ordered 3 2+ lb lobsters and one 1.5 lb lobster. Mine was huge and man the shell was so thick you could not even break it with crackers and we had to beg the staff to bring out something industrial and then it was even a challenge. It was amazing as these come pretty much straight off the boat to table. We just finished as the storms came crashing down. This is due. And sorry ambiance but well worth it b

It has a lovely location next to the Southport yacht club overlooking the water. What I respect more than anything is that this place has a simple menu and they do it really well. The blackened haddock sandwich was on point and the Nashville hot chicken was one of the best I've had. The clam chowder was unique with some rosemary and I found it really tasty. Great beer on tap and don't leave without getting a milkshake because they're amazing.

The dinner on the other hand was poor to very poor on both my Hangar Steak dinner and my wife's Cabbage dinner. I sent my dinner back after the first bite because it had a very strong vinegar taste and smell. My dinner partners agreed. I was first told by the waitress that the chef said it's pre-brined and there's nothing they can do. I asked the owner Carlos if that was going to stand. He went away and came back after some time and said I can give you a hanger steak with no sauce. How could that be if it was pre-brined? He said that's one of my favorite meals. By that time, my wife and our friends were finished with dinner and the wine was gone. The fact that the owner did not offer to comp my inedible meal causes me to give a very poor recommendation. Each year we have visited the blue while at Five Islands and know Carlos by name. We will not be returning. Why would any owner lose a returning customer over the cost of a hanger steak?

Stellar and unique experience at Lady Oyster!…read more Fantastic views, locally sourced and delicious oysters, great wine pairings, and incredible knowledge gained -- cannot say enough positive things about our oyster tasting experience.

From the second we walked in this felt like a one of a kind experience. The table was set beautifully, Virginia and her team were so welcoming, and she is so incredibly knowledgeable. After the oyster tasting we enjoyed a lobster roll and then hopped on Captain Joe's boat for a tour of an oyster farm and a ride around this beautiful midcoast area. Timing of the tides worked out so that we got to see a bunch of seals. Captain Joe also helped us shuck some oysters while we enjoyed delicious rum punch cocktails he whipped up on the boat. We ended the tour with a beautiful sunset before heading back to the dock. Since moving to Maine seven years ago, it seems like during summertime, all the classic destinations have become so overrun with tourists and certain activities and places that are my go-tos have lost a bit of their charm. I think that's what I loved so much about Lady Oyster. Located in a tiny little peninsula village called West Point, it is off the beaten path, and almost feels like stepping back in time. I would 10/10 recommend Lady Oyster to anyone looking for a true hidden Maine gem. I hope to come back this winter for one of her dinners!

TLDR: Linden + Front does neighborhood new American better than anyone else in the midcoast…read more L + F is easily the best restaurant in city and they consistently knock it out of the park on all fronts. The staff are some of the kindest, most accommodating people in the business--the bartenders in particular are always willing to work with you to find exactly the cocktail you're in the mood for. The food is fresh and local. In particular the partnership with Bath's local butcher shines through in their meats, but there are plenty of options for vegetarians as well. They're also one of the only restaurants around where I feel confident I can bring my partner who has celiac. He's eaten here multiple times and the staff have always been understanding and able to accommodate him. The atmosphere strikes a lovely balance that feels sophisticated enough for an event or special occasion, but just as welcoming if you want to sit at the bar after work and have a French onion burger and drink.
