                                Atlantic Bistro, a coastal New England gem, delights with "excellent food" and "fabulous service." Known for its "consistently great" dishes like salmon, mussels, and chicken, the bistro features a cozy ambiance and an impressive wine list. Although service can be leisurely, it is "100% worth a visit" for the culinary experience.

                                  I had the chicken over mushrooms and thin sliced potatoes. It was delicious. My friend had the bacon blue-cheese burger and loved his as well. Nifty gem in a small coastal NE town.

                                  The food is nearly always excellent at the Atlantic Bistro. And, the food is nearly always very slow to come to the table. The restaurant does not offer any pre-meal bread, and we've tried ordering appetizers to alleviate the long wait for entrees, but appetizers are equally as slow and it's a long time between the service of courses. It's a love/frustration relationship with Atlantic Bistro. 100% worth a visit (actually, many visits) for the wonderful dishes and preparations, just know you will likely spend some time sitting at your table hungry.
