And that more or less started a tradition with my wife and I of going in on birthdays and sometimes anniversaries. Sometimes, particularly in the dead of winter when all the tourists have gone from Maine, we go in just cuz. First of all, the menu and the cocktails. Just. F'ing. YUM. I'm a huge fan of the yuca fries which are crispy on the outside, perfectly soft inside, just the right amount of salt. The "Fall Green Salad" on the menu currently is just... It's a death wish meal. Like, if I'm ever on death row, and they're like "OK, buddy, what's the last meal you want?" It's going to be that salad. Well, maybe that and some lobster. ANYway the menu is generally small, which some people seem to take issue with, but changes regularly with seasonal foods, and all but the most picky of "Applebee's" fans will find something to enjoy. In other words, if you're expecting an eight page menu with low quality, bland food, this may not be the place for you. The presentation is always spot on, but the flavors? My god, I am just gushed over a salad? Yes. Yes I did. The sweetness with a nice bit of tart from the grapefruit, the slight bitterness of the radicchio, and then the curried pecans. This fantastic little crunch with the curry flavor and heat? Seriously. So freakin' good. The bartenders are wonderful and really know their stuff. Last night I saw a bottle I didn't recognize, which turned out to be creme de cocao. I've had DeKuyper and others, but this was so much better. I asked the bartender for a cocktail made from it and what she made.... *chef's kiss*. A tiny bit of coffee, some flavor from akvavit, some whiskey. It was so subtle, so delicious, and exactly my flavor pallet (I tend to be somewhat alcohol forward in my drink preferences). Whenever I'm in, I also order a "Last Word" since they always, always make them perfectly and it's difficult these days to find green chartreuse. The bartender very kindly explained to me what why his were generally better than what I made at home. And of course, the staff in general. We LOVE THEM. ALL of them. Magnus has a vibe, if you're a local in particular, similar to a neighborhood pub. The people get to know your face, they greet you warmly, they chat not just with you but with one another. It's clear, abundantly clear, that they like where they are. Parking is where you can find it on street in the area. We've never had any issues finding something within easy walking distance. The price, well lets face it, even going to eat at a local Irish bar these days is going to set you back, but for the current market I'd say it's average. We had three cocktails each, three appetizers, and one main dish for about $150, AND we had leftovers. BTW, refried yuca fries with over easy eggs? Perfect hangover food.

I for one know that I'll regularly be back.

Got a spicy margarita that truthfully was pretty watered down, not very spicy, and not very much of anything at all. The view is great but there's only 4 tables outside that get it so if you're not one of those 4 then you're basically sitting at a normal cocktail bar with okay drinks. Overall it's unique and different of ogunquit but I do think for a cocktail bar the drinks need to pack more of a punch (and who knows- maybe it was just a bad night).

Once you walk in and see the beautiful interior you really feel you're in a special place that not many people get to experience. We checked in 5 minutes before our reservation and our table was more quite ready so we found ourselves a couple seats at the bar. We did wait about 15/20 minutes for our table. Once we were seated, we were greeted with water and bread service. The homemade sourdough focaccia was incredible. I had to stop myself for reaching for piece number three. When looking at the menu, they have a couple different options. We loved the price is preset based upon your 3 or 4 courses. Doesn't matter what you choose on the menu, you just are charged or a 3 or 4 course option. Husband Course 1: TUNA SASHIMI Course 2: WOOD FIRED OCTOPUS Course 3: SWORDFISH Course 4: (dessert) HAZELNUT TIRAMISU The tuna was fresh, sliced thicker lots of flavor and delicious. Octopus was tender-had a perfectly light smoky flavor. Swordfish Nice cut of fish. Good flavor. Unfortunately this was a little over cooked. Didn't have a bouncy texture and a bit dry. Tiramisu had a lovely thick hazelnut flavor. Good texture. Myself: Course 1: BARLEY RISOTTO Course 2: LOBSTER FETTUCCINE Course 3: HALIBUT Course 4 (dessert) donuts Additions-- carrots Risotto was outstanding. This flavor combination was outstanding. I was dancing in my chair like a little girl. Fettuccine, everything is better with lobster. Perfectly handmade noodles. Delicate fresh lobster and light sauce. Halibut had a wonderful flavor. Nice piece of fish. But mine too was a little over cooked. All the vegetables were fresh and their flavor definitely showed that. The donuts were absolutely to die for. I am not a sweet person and they were moth watering. Overall this place is magical. I would eat here a million times over
