The ambiance is kind of rustic Maine and a great place to stop for food or drink. Alicia, our waitress gave us a great time, she was friendly, welcoming and efficient.

WELL let me tell you, it's safe to assume the restaurant is awesome if they win a James Beard award!!! So food, service and ambiance .... Food - Everything we had was awesome! I think you can say it is an 8 course diner including the roll with the whipped maple butter. You're given a few options for your appetizer, entree and desert, while the rest of the courses are standard for the night. I believe the menu, at least in part, changes thru-out the year. All of the dishes were a good size for a bigger menu. Flavors, textures and seasonings for each dish were very thoughtfully crafted, the effort and love is unmistakeable. Our meal was about 3 hours and it really didn't feel like it, everyone left full!!! It's priced at $115 per person, not including drinks or gratuity. Well worth it! Service - while the service was good, our server was prompt and mindful of drink refills as well as getting the order correct, however my one criticism of our dinner was that the service did not meet the standard of dining like this. At this level, you're paying for more, food costs more so the gratuity costs more and the expectation is higher for BOTH! No-one is okay paying for a BMW and getting a KIA. There really is an art and expertise needed to work as a server for a high end restaurant, you cannot serve people like your working at the Olive Garden. It reflects poorly on the restaurant when one of the team doesn't preform to meet the standard, and can affect the dining experience. We didn't care but certainly an area for improvement.... maybe just an off night. Ambiance - the restaurant is tastefully decorated, clean, plain and very spacious. It's not a $30 million building with fancy marble, it's got a small town feel and very comfortable. They don't have the tables packed in there. No-one likes getting their chair kicked or elbow rubbed while eating... Towards the end of the meal we met the chef and owner lulu, who was so down to earth, easy to talk to and very humble... such a nice person. If you're looking for quality fine dining in Maine then I absolutely recommend you make a reservation and take a drive. The Quarry is absolutely a hidden gem.

I had the scallops special and wild rice, both were delicious but I would have liked to have had a vegetable with the meal, that was about $26 The fried shrimp were large shrimp with the tails left on and the side of coleslaw was large chunks with little to no dressing. The fresh cut fires were a plus. The waitress was strung out, all ovwr the place, but very pleasant. This is a local "watering hole" and it has a welcoming vibe. Would atop again but saw other places that id like to try fist before going back.

It is in an old building with the most wonderful wood floors. There is a ramp outside for handicapped access. I got a great Reuben on swirled rye. It was so good. The star was a 4 piece fried chicken. It was hot and juicy with a light crust. Oh boy, was the chicken on point. I could wax poetic. The server was cute and rattled off ten different desserts like she was naming her kids--no hesitation! I thought that was impressive as I sure couldn't do that! The food was great as was the service. We will go again as it is only 45 minutes away from home.

Sorry we can't keep coming here. We can't have what we want and it's so simply. I guess the presentation is so off it's kinda a turn off. The people are the sweetest ever but the food up here in these small towns suffer -- and the food isn't really that good - but where do people go? It's pretty tough up here - there are a few places but again - either the price isn't indicative of food they serve like The Mill Cafe - not good variety of reason and just the usual chain places which all are terrible choices of food to put in your body. I guess if you don't care and want it bland -- it's fine for a quick stop in. I love food that smells great - looks great and tastes great. I'll be cooking more at home moving forward.

On 9/12/2026 We waited until 2:10 PM and not a single server came over to greet us, take our order, or even acknowledge us. Meanwhile, people who were seated after us were greeted and served right away. After waiting 45 minutes with absolutely no service, we finally got up and left. We told the hostess what happened, and her response was that she wasn't sure why and she told the server when she seated us. Unfortunately, this experience matched the other reviews we had read. The service was absolutely horrible, and we won't be coming back. If you're considering eating here, take the reviews seriously.
