    Garlic parm wings
    Erica L.

    We had a late snack to kill some time before our early flight back home. We had garlic parm chicken wings that were decent. Seems like a convenient option while staying at the airport hotel or waiting for your flight. It had regular American bar food options and probably some good drink options as well. I will say only one waitress working the tables and bar area that evening. She was doing great for what one person can do but another one working would have been better overall.

    The breakfast was great for being located in a hotel. The price is fair for the amount of food you get. Plenty of breakfast options. The waitress is friendly. I would say it's on the same level of an IHOP or Dennys.

    The lobster roll, the panko haddock, the blueberry pie, the whoopie pie and the chowder are amazing. Really gives you a taste of Maine. And Fonda is a great bartender and server.

    While it does not constitute fine dining, Tailwinds offers sit down dining. You can have a burger, pasta dishes and some other meals. It also has a bar. I love that they have partnered with local breweries and feature the "refueled" for the crew of fueling military planes.

    Very nice and clean restaurant. Could use some music or jazz to give it some character. Nice tables and comfy chairs. Great service too. Prices were ok as well. Had the burger with nice wedges of thick cut fries. Very tasty and delicious caramelized mushrooms that were added. I'll try the onion rings next time. Inside the hotel and I believe has happy hour.

    Seems like most people stop here if they are passing through or by the airport. My flight got delayed by almost 3 hours, and this restaurant was the only one open at 8pm. Giving this place 3 stars because my dish (lemon chicken with linguine) was quite bland. Tasted like a plate of pasta and butter, with chicken breast--not much salt? Portions were generous for the price, and waitress was very kind. Great service, and comfortable atmosphere to lounge in if you're waiting for a flight. Nothing to go out of your way for.

    Food had to be frozen pre-fab, tasted like a school cafeteria. We flew in at 1:00pm they're closed from 1-5, so we had to wait 4 hours.

    EDIT: The owner responded to my google review (see picture) and it speaks volumes. Rather than…read moreapologizing for their cook openly yelling at a group of customers who spent $500, management has chosen to report my review and make excuses about needing "reservations" for a food truck. Being busy does not excuse verbal hostility. Multiple people in our group of 10 left reviews because we all experienced the same unacceptable behavior. Future traveling groups beware: if you order a lot of food here, expect great food but a side of absolute hostility from the kitchen--and an owner who will defend it. ---- Original Review - I was part of the group of 10 that stopped by this spot recently before heading to the airport (which is conveniently just 5 minutes away). It is truly a shame to leave a 1-star review because the food itself was excellent, and the lady taking our orders up front was incredibly sweet and accommodating. When we placed our order, she kindly informed us that the food would be coming out in batches, which we completely understood and were happy to accommodate. However, the entire experience was soured by the cook in the back. As we went up to pick up our food batches, he began making audible, angry comments from the kitchen--clearly directed at us as customers and explicitly meant for us to hear. When we later politely checked in on the remainder of the order, he openly yelled and cursed at my friends, visibly angry that a large group had ordered food. I have personally worked in high-paced, high-stress environments--including busy retail and fast paced healthcare--so I understand firsthand how overwhelming a sudden "surge" can be. But professional composure is essential. We weren't upset about a 25-minute wait for a large, $500 order--we were happy to wait for good, fresh food. The issue was the verbal and open hostility from the kitchen. If you are traveling in a group to or from the airport, be aware that simply being hungry and ordering food might be treated as a major inconvenience here. It was a very disappointing end to an otherwise joyous group trip. I truly hope this feedback can be taken constructively so that future traveling groups can enjoy your great food in a positive atmosphere.

LOBSTER WAS COLD and not good and fries were greasy, undercooked and cold. After waiting 45 minutes for 1 lobster roll I nicely asked: Does it normally take this long? The cook charged at the open window and started screaming and yelling at me not to complain. This was at least our 8th lobster pound/truck in Maine in 7 days and by far the worst AVOID IT!
