Meeting with family from the Northern part of Maine who invited us to Foresters. Who knew Lincoln…read moreMaine would have such a beautiful space! I've not explored this area so was pleasantly surprised to see more then a convenience store. The place has ample parking and clear signage. Meet our group outside and were escorted to our table quickly. We were set up in a back room with a table set up for the 12 of us. Once all settled in our drink order was taken and specials explained. Lots a talking and catching up. Drinks arrived in a timely manner and then food orders given. I ordered the Fish tacos with a salad instead of fries. Hubby has the bacon cheese burger, and son had shrimp scampi and Bang Bang Shrimp. Food came out hot and delicious. Everyone enjoyed their meal. No room for dessert so we finished our food, got to-go boxes and out to the fire pit area for continued conversations. Definitely enjoyed our time here and would come back if invited again.

A friend from Boston came to town for the weekend. She enjoyed the flatbread. The tacos were good -…read morenormally, the fish is fried. It is always refreshing when the chef will adjust fried to grilled. Forester's is a typical small-town pub. It was busy, but our server, Emmett was attentive and kind. It was a beautiful Saturday evening sitting outside, seeing an old friend.

I personally had low expectations, due to our experiences here in Maine, my wife was VERY…read moreexcited.... 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.

We finally made it! And it definitely was worth it. Stellar dinner where there are no stars for…read moremany miles around. The hospitality is well worth their Beard award. The staff was perfect, lovely owner always makes the rounds and the porch provides a lakeside view. Every dish was delicious and well plated. Dietary preferences are followed. It took 3 hours for the prix fixe menu to be served so be prepared.
