Restaurants near Bar Harbor Marina

The best part of the experience at RST was our waitress, Michelle. She was on point with recommendations and her personality and attitude were very warm and welcoming. The food did not disappoint. Neither did the atmosphere and the beauty of the restaurant. But by far, it was the experience of our server that made the evening outstanding for our girls night out!

Our server was very professional and attentive. There was some difficulty with the waiter hearing our order because of the proximity to the band. The band was NOT at a bad level. Quite the opposite. But there were occurrences where we couldn't be heard. There was also a situation where we ordered one dish that actually was not on the menu (one guest ordered Chicken Thighs) and the waiter misinterpreted that as a different dish. The incorrect dish arrived and we sent it back stating that it was not our order. We then informed the server and we discovered the mix up. But, that additional dish was STILL CHARGED to us. The additional dish was a 2nd order of the Chicken Chicharrones. Overall the meals and evening were great!

A wonderful addition to the area! The menu is festive and blends elements of a classic steakhouse with a modern touch. Ideal setting for a business dinner or celebration. We were celebrating my husbands birthday and our servers Stephanie and Carla went out of their way to make it special! We got an extra dessert and some champagne, they even gave my husband a card!

First off, use the valet. So what, it's 15 bucks plus the tip. You would spend that at any garage or street parking..really...not for me. Had 5:30 reservations on Labor Day. The hostess greeted us and we were seated right away. Our server was "Marissa". She was fabulous. She first walked us through some drink offerings and gave us a little time to consider our drinks. After the drinks arrived, only a short time, she walked us through some of the offerings on the menu and the "specials". She answered questions and gave great feed back. We opted for the calamari appetizer. It was great. This is not some coated and deep fried stuff. This is top quality calamari matched with fregola sarda, olives, capers and a hint of spice...outstanding dish We opted for two half portions of pasta as a second course. The squid ink campanelle was outstanding. The pasta, crab meat, cream and basil all came together and made wonderful flavors. We also liked the Lobster Ravaoli. The lobster cream sauce was balanced nicely. The ravioli were soft and tender in the middle and a perfect "to the teeth" on the outside. I have read some people that complain about the "bite" of the ravioli. They clearly have no idea what Al-dente means. Theses were excellent. The grilled sword fish was a huge portion (took a doggie bag) served over fresh seasonal veggies. The flavors worked perfectly. The short rib was fall apart tender and rich and flavorful. The pickled kohlrabi (which I have never had) added a wonderful contrast of sweet and sour. We were there for a birthday occasion, "Marissa" provided us with a complimentary dessert, which I thought was a wonderful thing to do. Would definitely go again. Cost, well folks you get what you pay for. We go out three or four times a year to a really "nice place". I have no complaints about the pricing. Reservation - definitely. Ask to work with Marissa. One of the best servers we have ever worked with.

The sushi presentation and taste (according to my boyfriend) was excellent. My entree, however, took a lot longer than the sushi. As someone who doesn’t eat seafood, this was the only issue I had with the place. The service for everything else was great, and we’ll definitely visit again!
