Have always walked in sat down and ordered. This time, we did that, and was told we could not sit till after we order... where tons of people were sitting with no food in front of them and no numbers so how can you tell who sat and who did not? Let people figure it out like you have always done or collect names and call when tables are available to sit. What you did today was rude and not consistent. Felt we were pointed out and treated badly for no reason and very sad as a local that I feel compelled to post this. Post a policy so people know or collect names for seating. Not hard. This is not a staffing issue this is a policy and treating people respectfully issue doing what they have always done many times when you were NOT getting so much business as a loyal patron Times change... it won't always be like this...

The lobster roll itself was on a stale toasted bun, too heavy on mayo and drizzled with butter!? No, just no. I was so sad! This place was always so good. Not today!!!!

I was so excited & then I tasted the cream based broth with Old bay seasoning which I didn't really like but worse than that the enormous amount of lobster meat was not tender it was down right chewy. So much so I couldn't eat it. If I had not taken it home to eat & had it there I would have returned it. I 'm bummed wasting good money on a chewy lobster stew. I assume the owner was the extremely nice woman taking my order I hope she responds to my review & makes an exchange for something else to eat next time I come in. I will try the clam chowder & fried scallops next.

I don't really appreciate lobster so I ordered a hot dog. Mistake $3. The inside of Nunan's is so cool - a total nautical vibe, so our first mistake was not sitting inside. The lobster roll was tiny with only 4 pieces of lobster. Looking at what people inside ordered it was mostly whole lobster. Mistake #2 was not ordering whole lobsters. The hot dog also was tiny and simply boiled. Mistake #3 was not ordering something more substantial. The blueberry muffin and clan chowder were both very good. Our server was fantastic. Quick, cheerful. Cash only. To be fair we didn't sit in the right place or order the right food, but what we did order wasn't very good.

Ultramar has more seafood options, whereas Lost Fire has more meat. I prefer to dine at the bar. It's just really loud at the tables. There are acoustic titles on the ceilings, but I'm not sure it helps. Also, during my most recent visit it was so cold. Everyone in our group was cold and each time a new group of patrons was seated around us they remarked to the host about how cold it was. He said told one group that the temperature was warm for some people and freezing for others. I'm not really sure how that could be true, unless it's colder for the servers who are constantly moving around. Maybe just bring a jacket with you just in case. Additionally, during my most recent visit, our server was a little frazzled. For example, she took all the wine glasses off the table, but two people in our group ordered wine, so when she came back to pour the wine, she ended up grabbing wine glasses off an empty table to serve their wine. She also struggled providing market pricing on menu items and took a few guesses. It would have been fine if she just said she'd find out and get back to us. She did seem aware that we weren't really impressed and did frequently check on us afterwards. I ordered the restaurant's version of a gin and tonic. I keep forgetting I don't like their version. In my defense, it's been about a year since my last visit. I like a gin and tonic to be refreshing. Theirs is a bit more complex. I also had the filet with the garlic mash potato as my side. The mash potato was a little bland. It could have used more garlic or butter. One of my family members ordered the swordfish kebabs and those were a big hit. A few of us tried them and agreed it was quite the standout dish.

My companion's shrimp cocktail featured previously frozen shrimp that had not been completely thawed. A significant disappointment. Ambiance and staff were fine.

The Reilly Roll is baked fresh daily and is soft and slightly sweet. Simple, tasty, and satisfying. There were no lines and only a short wait, which made the experience easy and relaxed. The roll itself was good, though not quite as unforgettable as some of the others I've tried on this trip--that's the only reason for 4 stars (4.3) instead of 5. Still, it's a solid spot right by the water with fresh, quality lobster and a true Maine vibe.
