We sat at the bar on Monday night. Everything was great! The blackened trio was very good. Our bartender Dan was an absolute rock star! We love when the service elevates our experience to another level. He did just that. Drinks were amazing and came out fast! Overall it's was a great experience and we will be back! 10 out of 10! read more

We made reservations through Resy and asked to sit on the patio as it was a beautiful night. We were told the patio was walk-in only. So, people who do not make reservations get the best seat?! Crazy. So, if you want the patio, DO NOT make a reservation lol. The food was excellent. We all had a halibut variation and it was as delicious with a lovely presentation. The house salad was very over-priced. I would have loved a smaller, cheaper salad. My 5 year old ate every bite of his grilled cheese. The kids menu was great! Only negative was the seating. I was literally touching elbow with the man at the table next to me. We were also there to celebrate a birthday (noted twice in reservation) and no mention was made which was a bit disappointing. Overall, we would go back, but next time we won't make a reservation. read more

Disappointed this annual visit. The service was good and the atmosphere is nice, but the food is just bland. We had appetizer of the mussels in red sauce - tender mussels, but someone hid the parsley, garlic and red pepper flakes from the chef. The entree of fish and chips despite having fresh haddock had a cracker like bland coating. No attempt at a peppery Italian seasoning on the breading which was not tempura crispy. The second entree was a classic shrimp scampi- it had no heavy dose of garlic and basil and parsley. Shrimp looked boiled not sautéed with crisp ends. Pasta was al detente. Butter sauce was good. read more

We went to The Maine Catch after a recommendation from a friend. We were sleeping on this place! The food, the service, the atmosphere? Perfect. We called ahead and made reservations for the patio. This was our first time fine dining with our 6 month old and we had the best experience. My husband had the clam linguine which he said rivaled the spaghetti ala vongole we had in Italy and I had the broiled seafood trio (absolutely DIVINE). I am gluten free but currently also dairy free due to my baby having a dairy allergy. They were super accommodating of our allergies/intolerances and if our food was AS delicious as it was with modification- I can't even imagine how good the rest of the food is with dairy and gluten. We loved our meals so much we came back a second night for a repeat. This place does not miss. The oysters were incredible as were the drinks. Drew P. was our server and he was an absolute delight both nights. Highly, highly recommend The Maine Catch! read more

The Maine Catch was really good. We had lobster rolls, the clam chowdah, and the scallops entree. Everything was excellent, particularly the chowdah. I wanted to try the lobster Cobb but was just too stuffed. We took a slice of the blueberry pie to go. That is the only thing I recommend you skip. Our server was EXCELLENT. Some of the best service I've received in recent memory. read more

This was our 2nd time here and it was just as good as the first. First due to a special diet I need to be very careful about my eating. They were so accommodating with everything. And the up charge was minimal. The server was extremely friendly and very helpful when I was ordering. The blueberry pie was amazing. The atmosphere is rustic but very warm and cozy. It has it own off street parking which is a plus in Ogunquit. As with anywhere in Maine everyone who worked there was so friendly. Just a great place to eat and hang out. read more

I really enjoy this restaurant. I love the location. For a place that is not by the water, it is very charming. We have been going there every year since it opened and it is always consistent and good food. When you consider how much other places in the area are charging (and the food is not as good), their price point is great. The servers are always on top of everything and lovely. Get the cornbread! You will not be sorry. read more

The food here was delicious and the ambiance was great for a romantic dinner with my wife. The lobster Newburgh came in a delicious sauce! My salmon was cooked perfectly! Our service was also great but felt a little rushed. Overall a great place for a romantic dinner!! read more

Bakers dozen oysters, New England clam chowder, crabcakes, charred brussels sprouts, steamed lobster-- paired with Orono Summer Ale and Cushnoc Hard Tellin. Excellent but lobster tail was on the overcooked side, and brussel sprouts are slightly too charred for my taste (my partner enjoyed them though). read more

Each one of the meals was fantastic and full of flavor. The location is very cute and unique. A very close walkable distance to Perkins Cove if you'd like to go there after dinner. The host and Weight staff were all extremely friendly. We had the halibut and the clams linguine and the blackened seafood trio. As well as a blueberry pie with ice cream for dessert. Overall, a great birthday dinner was had and we will definitely be back. read more

Amazing restaurant wow. Service was great, our waiter Benjamin was very timely, kind, and he gave really good suggestions. Cute ambiance, we sat outside and it was very cozy. As for the food. All of us were scraping every last bit of everything. Our table ordered the mussels in white sauce, oysters, stuffed lobster, blackened seafood trio, and scallop linguine. We came in a big group and our whole table went silent while eating. Cannot recommend this place enough read more

What a delicious dinner!! Everything was absolutely perfect. Our waitress was excellent and even with my elderly parents asking ridiculous questions and taking forever to answer her, she was still happy and very kind and understanding. We had a little bit of everything on the menu. My husband had oysters and said they were the best he's ever had. My daughter and father each had mussels one with red sauce and one with white wine sauce. They both practically licked the bowls clean. I had a fried haddock sandwich and it was delicious. Cooked perfectly. Definitely recommend you check out The Maine Catch in Ogunquit! read more

Came here while we were staying at the Blue Shutters inn last weekend. This was recommended to us by the staff at the inn and it was only a short walk. Very convenient location. We made reservations only a couple hours ahead of time. We were seated upstairs and our server Shannon was amazing- very friendly and nice. We ordered the garden salad which was actually quite a decent portion and nice. I ordered the grilled salmon and the hubs ordered the lobster Mac and cheese. When they brought the entrees- mine was incorrect - was a scallops dish instead of salmon. We told the server and she corrected the order. I ate the salad meanwhile and then the salmon arrived. It came with rice and a side of their kale vegetable medley which was nice. The salmon was tender although there were parts of it that were blackened almost burnt. Hubs liked the Mac n cheese - quite a large portion so he had leftovers. The restaurant seems popular as it was fairly crowded and the ambiance was cozy. Seemed like people sitting at the bar too. Overall good food and great service! read more

The Maine Catch has so much potential. The food was terrific -- everything we ate was delicious -- but the service (or lack thereof) left a lot to be desired. Thankfully, we went to The Maine Catch on Saturday with reservations, as they were packed. The restaurant is beautiful and has plenty of parking; it's between Perkins Cove and Ogunquit's Main Street, nestled amidst countless of trees. They have outdoor and indoor seating. From the moment we walked inside and told the hostess we had a reservation, we were met with a cold vibe, very unlike Maine and Ogunquit ( and something you wouldn't expect at a restaurant of this caliber). Our waitress's service was no better. She seemed checked out, and everything felt very transactional. The food made its way to us quickly--sometimes too quickly, as in the case of the crispy calamari starter--which led to a few misses, like having the food arrive before our drinks. Our waitress just seemed to not care. She'd talk to us in passing and do the bare minimum. It was one of the worst services we've seen at a Maine restaurant. The one thing that saved The Maine Catch, and the reason they're still getting 4-stars, is the food. Our crispy calamari was perfect; not too much breading or super greasy, as is usually the case. The accompanying sauce had a nice kick to it. My partner's lobster mac and cheese was the best we've ever had, and the portion was generous. My blackened salmon, with rice and veggies, was also a 10/10 and probably one of the best salmons I've eaten. The rice was cooked to perfection. Would we come back to The Maine Catch? Yes, the food was good enough to keep us coming back, but I do hope they improve their service. read more

The cocktails and food are delicious. The towers are great if you have a large table party. The restaurant has nice outdoor seating and a more rustic indoor seating. Our server was ok. He didn't seem patient with 4 kids orders and he didn't take an order correctly. They remedied this by giving us free dessert. The blueberry pie was more like a jelly inside and wasn't really fruity. read more

Quick friendly service , very intimate cute indoor and outdoor seating , easy parking or walkable from many little inns and resorts on Shore road with delicicous food sums up The Maine Catch The blackened Salmon and Pan seared Halibut were our picks for dinner and did we not live it . Delicately flavored the fish spoke for itself ! It was cooked perfectly a gentle nudge and fit would break away. The side of rice , kale with veggies and broccoli rabe plus parsnip purée was everything that was needed to complete our meal. We were completely sold on the fish that I missed mentioning the plain Jane fried calamari appetizer though the pepper relish on the side was a bomb This is a sea food lovers paradise . Don't miss it if you are in Ogunquit. read more

This place was next door to the hotel we were staying at and decided to try it after reading some reviews, we entered into the restaurant to find a very Rustic but charming/romantic coastal place. We were met by a friendly host who promptly seated us. Within 3 minutes our waiter came by with water for us and took our drink orders and made some Recommendations on appetizers. We went with the raw oysters and clam chowder. Within 5-6 minutes the waiter brought our adult drinks and the appetizers and then took our meal order, my wife ordered the Roasted beet salad with goat cheese and I ordered the Scallops with the roasted potatoes, with corn and bacon cream sauce. Both of these we highly enjoyed and recommend, Our waiter was always on point with checking on us and keeping our water topped off. We highly recommend this place. read more

Oh my gosh this place was ahmazing!!!!!! Had been driving all day with nothing delicious to eat for the day other than tourist fast food. Called to see their hours and they said they closed in 35 min. I hated to be the last table but was really in a bind for good food and new to the area and being from the west coast (time change) I was starving. They were really so kind to us and everything tasted delicious. We were quick to order to help them out. Our drinks were delicious and when I say our food was delicious. I'm not exaggerating. Everything tasted great and that stuffed lobster with bacon, scallops shrimp. Omg!!!! It was like heaven in my mouth. Thank you for the delicious meal and not being short with hungry travelers coming in late in the day. read more

Very good seafood and land food in ogunquit! It's a little down the road towards Perkins cove and can be walked to. The service is good and nice atmosphere. Skillet Mac and cheese is fire and lobster scampi is great too. Salmon is also good. On our list for vacation every year! read more

Best dinner so far in Maine. From the service to the quality of the food, this is a must go to spot in Ogunquit. I wasn't feeling great from a rough day on a boat, and had the steak - which was delish - but my crew had stuffed lobster, stuffed shrimp, and seafood linguini. Everything was 5 stars, stuffed shrimp was 4. Shannon our waitress was the nicest and most attentive human ever. Pro tip; make a resy/ you won't get a dinner table otherwise. You just won't. Focus on lobster and DO get all the desserts. They are homemade. read more

Very much enjoyed our meal at The Maine Catch. Servers were very attentive and informative about the selections. We knew nothing about this place and just happened to walk by looking for a meal and a cocktail. Found 2 seats at the bar and was thoroughly impressed with the menu selections. The lobster rizzoto was very good. The lobster was prepared perfect, not over cooked and the rizzoto was very well seasoned with both mushrooms and a balsamic glaze that complimented the rice very well. My wife elected to go with crab cake appetizer which was ok, but maybe slightly over done. The local oysters were prepared clean and presented perfectly, also very good. Would absolutely go back. read more

Great food and service! Had some oysters to start - they get most from Damariscotta region, so you know they are going to be good - and they were great. Had the halibut for a main - nice portion and cooked perfectly. Anyplace else this last thing would not matter - but they have plenty of parking! read more

We went to this place on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy but the only thing is they lost my reservation So my time got pushed back which is a little annoying. However, I was excited to be sitting outside because it was a gorgeous night and you don't get many more of those around here. My mom got the lobster roll and she liked it She did say it tasted lemony. My son got the chicken fingers and he also like them. I got the Bob fried clams I don't personally think you get enough for $40 but they were really good. I would definitely be back and make reservation next time read more

The Maine Catch describes itself as a casual fine dining establishment. This family-friendly eatery features rustic and modern decor with many references to the sea like buoys, portholes, and lobsters. My cocktail glass was chilled with ice while the bartender shook and crafted the cocktail. While I enjoy a cold glass, this method is not my favorite because it usually leaves the glass somewhat wet. The olives were sized well and tasty. The drink was strong and enjoyable. The Maine oysters were shucked clean and tasted exquisite. My lobster roll entree was fine, slightly small with average fries. Also, since this lobster roll was just okay, there are others available in the area that I would recommend enjoying instead. read more

100% perfection. :-) This was one of the best restaurant experiences my family and I have had. Service was stellar. Timing of when food was served was just right. The meals were all in excess of what we were expecting in terms of taste, texture, seasoning, consistency, temperature, and overall awesomeness. Scampi with lobster: brilliant, and not skimpy at all on the lobster. Sirloin steak: perfectly cooked and seasoned. On point onion rings. And superb lobster mac and cheese. Desserts were also thoroughly enjoyed. We will be back! read more

One of my favorite places to enjoy fresh seafood when I'm in town! A quick walk from our hotel, this place always delivers. We usually sit at the bar, bartenders have become like friends... great recommendations and drinks to sample. They do have a few outside seating to enjoy a drink and the night weather. I love their lobster roll, oysters and fish n chips. Sometimes we order set a bunch of food and share. Great beers on draft, always some delicious local tasty ones to try. read more

My wife and I enjoyed our evening dining here. Pros: large parking lot (not easy to find in ogunquit), extensive menu including seafood and other options. The oysters we had (bayside and norumbega) and the clam chowder were above average. Service is friendly and quick. Good beer and drinks choices. Online reservations. Cons: I enjoyed the taste of the seafood newburg but didn't love the version they did - it was essentially a soup in a skillet with bread crumbs on top. Overall, I would recommend the restaurant to visitors of the area. read more

We've been multiple times over past few years and in past years they've served a solid clams and linguini dish. In 2025 I've found the portion size cut in half. Small clams circling the edge of plate. A small scoop of pasta clumped in middle. What was of it was tasty, however I left as hungry as I arrived. I've had good meals here in past. Maybe this was an anomaly, however there are two many great restaurant options in Ogunquit to go short on portions. read more

Delicious and quaint find a few steps away from the busy downtown Ogunquit. My boyfriend and I had a reservation but we noticed that walk-ins were still possible. We were sat on the restaurant's patio, and our server Kenroy was very friendly and set a good vibe for our dinner. We started with some Maine oysters and some calamari, which were fine. I also had a white sangria which was very refreshing and went very well with our fish-based dishes. The star of the show was the spaghettoni with clams. They had a slight kick, so just be aware of that if you're sensitive to spice. Otherwise, the saltiness of the clams were perfectly balanced by a light garlic, wine and parmesan sauce. The spinach was also a nice touch. The spaghettoni itself were cooked just over al dente, making for a great dish to close a day in this beautiful town. read more

Beyond spectacular! Fabulous service from hostess, Nikki, greeting though freshly brewed coffee and creamy coconut cake. The "bakers dozen" oysters were very well presented with a divine rendition of mignonette and a not overly "horseradish'd" cocktail sauce. Beautiful restaurant, although we ate outside on a perfect evening in the very well appointed garden inspired outdoor dining area. Cocktails were well served and, happily, "pre-Covid" portioned!! I would however recommend they apply more suitably sized "larger" olives in the Martinis. I had the absolutely very best seafood Newburgh I've ever had and my wife throughly enjoyed her well crafted crab stuffed haddock. This has to be one of the very best restaurants in the area and on site parking this close to Perkins Cove is yet another plus... read more
