After paying, I learned of a miscommunication in the kitchen and was asked to check back in after about 10 minutes. On my second arrival, I was told that the "cornbread was just coming out of the oven" with no other updates or communication for the following 15 minutes . 50 minutes after calling (and receiving my 20 minute quote) I was out the door - no utensils, no condiments and a soggy burger bun. My meal: Burger was on the colder side, the cheese had gone translucent across the top of my patty. I had one hearty slice of romaine and a 1/2" thick crosscut of red onion as my toppings. Fries should have been hotter, and a serving of ketchup or other would have gone a long way. Corn bread was decent, and suitably hot for consumption.

This place is up and coming and will be a staple of Maine undoubtedly, so go while the lines are not long!

I don't often find myself in the Waterville area, so when I needed lunch I turned to Yelp and I'm…read moreso glad this spot popped up! It was a very convenient location on KMD with helpful staff and delicious food. My food also came out quickly and they had several tables and chairs on their lawn, so it was a nice spot to grab lunch. I saw recommendations for their fish tacos here on Yelp so I intended to get those, but they weren't offering them the day I stopped in. So be prepared for their menu to change and rotate. Instead, I opted for shrimp tacos and they were great! After looking at the menu I wasn't sure if I wanted poutine or fried mushrooms to go with my tacos so I asked the woman working at the counter. She highly recommended the poutine, so I ordered that and I'm very happy I did. Their homemade gravy had shredded beef in it, which was delicious. The cheese curds were melted nicely and the fries were fresh and high quality. What a great find! Thanks Yelp and Shebas Wicked Kitchen!

My husband and I stumbled upon this breakfast treasure yesterday morning. This was our first time…read morein that area of Maine, we had been up to look at a couple of summer houses and we decided to stop and grab something to eat while we were up there. We drove by and turned around to give it a try. The inside is a little boring, but quite clean. The service was fast and friendly. Coffee was OK, nothing to write home about. My hubby got an omelet and raisin bread toast. I got the raspberry pancakes with a side of bacon. Both meals were DELICIOUS! The three pancakes were as big around as the plate and the stack must have been 3 inches high - much more than I could eat. The price for this huge plate of pancakes ? $5.55!! The were fluffy, with a perfect golden outside and a lightly crispiness around the edges. My husband was equally impressed with his breakfast! The omelet was quite large, filled the whole plate and also looked light and 'fluffy'. Perfectly finished - eggs overcook quite quickly and tend to be a hit or miss item at many places. They have a small breakfast menu, but plenty of choices including a small section for lighter choices (egg beaters, light french toast, etc) and a children's menu. For all of that food plus 2 cups of coffee we paid $16.49 +tax. What an amazing bargain. This is easily in one of our 5 favorite breakfast places overall. Value for the money it easily is number 1! We do wish we lived closer so we could go more often, although I am sure I could easily go too often with food that excellent!

Stevie J's is back and better than ever! After several ownership changes over the past few years,…read morethe newest chapter under Mike--who's not only a U.S. Marine Corps veteran but also a Fire-Rescue captain from southern Maine--has completely transformed this local spot into something truly special. I had the Otis Burger, and let me just say... wow. Two perfectly smashed patties stacked with grilled pastrami, Swiss cheese, pickles, and mustard--it was a flavor bomb in the best possible way. Every bite hit with that perfect balance of savory, salty, tangy, and grilled goodness. My wife went with the chorizo enchiladas, and she couldn't stop raving about them. Authentic flavor with just the right kick, beautifully prepared and plated. The change from the previous ownership is night and day. The food quality is top-tier, and the service is nothing short of legendary. Even though the staff is mostly young and relatively new to the industry, you can tell they care. They hustle, they smile, and they're clearly learning fast. Also worth mentioning--Stevie J's social media game is strong! They're active, engaging, and do a great job getting the word out about new menu items and specials. This is exactly what Livermore Falls needed. Highly recommend checking them out--you'll leave full and impressed.

**This is an update from previous review left 2 years ago**…read more This is my first time back to this establishment since I wrote a 1-star review nearly 2.5 years ago. I have to say that their food quality and quantity have gotten MUCH better. It's still americanized Chinese food so to expect 5-star dining is an unrealistic expectation. The staff is friendlier and understanding of food allergies. The to-go dishes are taller allowing for more food to be stored. My family and I ordered the General Tso combination plate, the steak low mein combo and the Szechuan chicken combo. Additionally we ordered crab Rangoons and egg rolls. The rice was cooked well, my wife thought it was a bit crunchy for her, the general tso chicken was cooked well and the flavor was good. My son did not complain about his Szechuan chicken, oh and my daughter had the sweet and sour chicken. My wife said the crab Rangoons were a bit on the sweeter side, but they satisfy the craving for them. My daughter loved the egg roll and she typically does not like egg rolls. Overall, I am impressed with the improvement in quality, appearance and quantity. They are still not my local go-to, but if we are looking for something quick and don't want to travel 35 minutes to our favorite Chinese restaurant, they have earned my business back after losing it 2.5 years ago.

Bear Belly's have been open for a few years now, located in between Philips and Madrid on Route 4…read more We have tried a number of times to stop in but always off times wise. Today, we hit the nail on the head. Just opened for the day we parked in front. Walked up the stairs and read the sandwich board with specials. Walked in to a cozy environment with wood accents, musical instruments on the wall, local artists work on the walls (also for sale), tiny flower vases on each table was very inviting. We chose to sit at the bar. Bartender was happy to see us and gave us specials information and told us to just holler when ready. Menu had a good variety of food I chose the chili and hubby their smash burger. Kitchen is located directly behind the bar. It is sparkling clean! The stainless steel was glowing it was so clean, I LOVE that having worked in F&B. While waiting bartender made small talk which we like, not overly sharing but enough to feel seen. Chili came with homemade cornbread that was toasted and out of this world DELICIOUS!! Chili was really good too. Not too spicy, thick with diced tomatoes, tinier peppers, and nice pieces of meat. Wowza was that good. Smash burger did not disappoint either, hubby said it's one of the best burgers he has had. They have a full display case with their homemade desserts so you can see before you buy. I was stuffed so did not take up on the offer. We did get a glance at the chef when we came in and asked the bartender to please give our compliments to the chef! Make sure to check for their hours, they open later than other places on Saturdays. They have a food truck outside, maybe they cater? Lots of outdoor seating for the nicer weather. If you are in the Western Mountains of Maine, don't drive by, stop and grab some amazing food!

While visiting family in Maine, we decided to try Bear Belly's based on a recommendation from…read moreanother relative. There was plenty of parking, and the atmosphere was enjoyable--spacious, comfortable, and featuring an outdoor bar with live entertainment. Our waitress was attentive and provided excellent service throughout the meal. I ordered the burger with onion rings, while my wife had the pulled pork sandwich with fries and coleslaw. The burger was cooked perfectly, though the roll--similar to a ciabatta--was a bit too firm for a burger. The onion rings were fairly standard, likely the frozen battered kind. My wife enjoyed the flavor of her pulled pork sandwich but found the bun too soft. It almost seemed as though the rolls for our meals may have been switched. Her fries were unfortunately soggy, as if they had been sitting under a warmer. Overall, Bear Belly's offers a pleasant dining atmosphere and friendly service, though there's some room for improvement in the consistency of the food preparation.
