Caprese Sandwich
Sarah S.

I was excited to try this place after seeing that it was so highly rated, but now that I've visited I'm unfortunately not sure what all the hype is about. But it wasn't all bad--I'll start with the positives! The staff were great--super friendly, welcoming, and helpful. I also enjoyed the fries, which were plentiful, and the pomegranate blonde ale, which was very refreshing. Although we didn't play, I was happy to see a stack of games on the bar. We were seated upstairs at the recommendation of the hostess. The decor was a little dated but it gave me a cozy and nostalgic feel. Now to the not-so-positives. I ordered the caprese sandwich and in the first bite, I was alarmed to feel something hard, sharp, and un-chewable. Confused, I had to fish whatever it was out of my mouth and found a small piece of what felt like some kind of wood. I realized after a couple minutes that it was the same color and texture as the toothpicks that held the sandwich together. I'm not sure how it got in my mouth--maybe a piece broke off in the kitchen and got stuck in or on the sandwich--but it was the first bite and I wasn't anywhere near where the toothpicks stabbed the sandwiches. Luckily that was the only splintered piece I found in my food, but I was very cautious for the rest of the meal. Honestly, if not for this, this probably would have been a 4-star review, but it put me a little on edge for the rest of the experience. The sandwich itself was decent--the bread was a little charred, but I actually kind of prefer that myself. Caprese sandwiches are always simple and good, as long as the ingredients are decent. The worst part for me was the price. I'm happy to pay a little extra for a great meal, but $18 for a caprese sandwich feels steep. I'm not from around here, so maybe this is normal in these parts where there are limited dinner options. My wife's tofu dinner was $23 for a small portion--back home we could get twice as much tofu for half the price. I always thought city life was more expensive, but I've learned my lesson here!

came across this place near our airbnb and were pleasantly surprised. the drafts were good and same with the food. the pizza was a 10/10 it had a good crust and was exactly what we were looking for. summer salad on the side for health. sat outside with a nice view of the water and the staff were friendly.

Great onion rings.   Ask for extra sauce.   Delicious!

First time to visit this location. Lovely view of the lake, with outdoor seating on a back deck of the restaurant, and picnic tables on the shore of the lake. The onion rings appetizer was the hit of the evening! be sure to ask for extra sauce. Our party had two sandwiches. One we got with the side of fries, and the fries are some of the best we have ever had. The side salad was very good and generous in portion. Service was friendly and effective.

We were here before - right when it became Nonesuch and the experience at that time was - well, not great! We thought we'd stop today and give 'em another try. It was quite good! The only thing that made it not five star was that it seemed to take a while (I blamed the caesar salad - which was wonderful - but wondering if they had to "make it".) I had the burger, an extremely good burger - with Pineland smoked cheddar, bacon and the works. And, speaking of works - the onion strings were sooooo good (but there were a LOT of them!) Wayne was being good, had the caesar as his side, to go with what he called one of the best Italian sandwiches - it was the NRB Italian. We asked Terri for extra plates because I had some of his salad and he had some of my onion strings. I had a Pilsner and Wayne enjoyed a marzen - both were quite good. Bonus that on 10/14 we were seated on the outside patio - it was sunny, a bit breezy, but amazing.

A flight - would be good to have the labels of what is what.

I love that Nonesuch has come to this region! I've gone to the big barn location in Scarborough several times, and was very excited to see their brews and bites land in the former Cindy's Dockside location. This is a prime location for people from the region looking for a nice night out as well as for "people from away" passing through. I loved the service and the view. The food was very decent for pub fare. Plenty of parking. I had a wonderful time with friends. My only complaint was that space-wise is it still felt like the previous establishment. Nonesuch has no shortage of creativity - make this place yours!

Stopped for a late lunch the service and people were very kind we did have to wait a little but it was only 5-10 min. worth it because the drinks were perfect food tasted amazing lots of flavor even the fries had flavor. The fried onion ring tower lol was really our favorite the ambiance was very family friendly the view of the lake on a nice day is always beautiful here! Highly recommend

Perfect view...

A pleasant evening sitting on the deck looking out at Range Pond. While I only had fries, the aioli sauce on the side was a delicious extra. And the Downeast Cider was excellent. Our server was funny and friendly. Honestly, it was the nicest visit so far. Highly recommend it.

Food was very good. The place is typical for Poland Maine. I'm sure in the summer with the lake there the sunsets are probably fantastic.

Over priced, Orders were not correct, food that wasn't ordered was brought to us. Risotto had a bad texture and tasted like plain oatmeal.

The Firehouse grill lives up to its reputation!!…read more The food was all in large portions and delicious. We started strong with mozzarella cheese sticks and the pretzel and cheese appetizer. Fresh and hot defined these apps perfectly! The sticks were warm and stringy, the pretzels were warm, soft, and salty. The cheese dip was actually delicious and tasted nothing like a can mix. For the main courses we had the home made mac and cheese that was topped with pulled pork which was sauced in Sweet Baby Rays and the Loaded Nachos topped with the Firehouse's award winning chili. The food all came out sized for a table of 8 with savory and sweet hints of deliciousness! The waitress was welcoming, outgoing, and offered sound advice on food choices. The cook staff was timely and efficient, and the bar tender was busy busy slinging cups full of the nectar of God (BEER!!)! The Firehouse House ambience lived up to the name with firefighter equipment, first responder memorabilia, and crafty decor. The only downside to this establishment is that is dark and throws a dive bar vibe. 9/10... we will be coming back here for sure (and ordering less food)!!

Gritty McDuff's in Auburn is an excellent choice for dinner and drinks!…read more I walked to Grittys from my hotel and sat inside the bar while they made our food to-go. The bar is spacious and on Thursday night they had someone playing life music. We ordered a pizza, burger, and pickle chips and all of the food was tasty. The service is also excellent! Only reason for 4 stars is I didn't care for their beers. I tried their blueberry ale and hazy IPA. I'm a bit of an IPA snob so don't let this ruin your opportunity to have an amazing experience. Grittys has an amazing outside dining area and a large menu! Check them out if you're in Auburn!

Having the option of sitting outside is fantastic! Loved that…read more Varied menu options - for beer, drinks, and food. Mac & Cheese with kielbasa was good. We were surprised to see a pile of jalapeños included - maybe it's on the menu and we missed it. Corn bread was moist. I opted for a build your own burger which was great. No bun, lettuce and tomato. The waitress told me to just tell her what I wanted on it and she'd get it for me. Cool. She didn't tell me I would be charged an extra $1 for a tiny bit of spinach, and 75 cents each for grilled onions and mushrooms. Not cool. I definitely would have just selected an "already made" option. I asked for sautéed mushrooms and onions so was a little surprised to get deep fried shrooms. There were good - I would probably order, and even be willing to pay extra, for them again. My issue was not being told. The seasoned fries were really good. The iced tea and Hazy IPA were (of course) good. Our waitress was a bit too attentive. It seemed almost like every time we took a bite, she was asking if everything was okay. Maybe just check in a couple times over the course of the meal? Please do remember that 3 is not bad. For me, it's a solid average.

Why do I always forget about this place? I've never had a meal that I didn't sit in my brain for…read moreweeks afterwards and it's pretty close to my house. I just never think Lewiston for a nice meal. But obviously I should. We went there for a couple drinks and some oysters, but then I saw a cheeseburger go by and I knew I needed in my life. It had to be done, my life wouldn't be complete unless I had it. It was cooked, perfectly, medium rare, towering over the french fries. This thing was colossal. Smoked Gouda, jalapeño and crispy onion rings piled on top. A single bite containing most of my favorite things. I have no regrets. We saw a gorgeous dessert come out towards the end of our meal so naturally, I asked the bartender about it. She said it was meant to be an evening special, I would ask if it was available for sale. After having it photograph, the chef came and delivered it personally. Much like his vision of a cheeseburger this dessert was flawless. Strawberry mousse with dark chocolate, ganache, and Oreo cookie crumble. I would've eaten it out of a shoe, a dirty one, a damn fishing boot.
