This was a fantastic, and romantic date for me and my significant other on Valentine’s Day. The menu was small but delicious. Very small place with a bar and tables. Lighting gives a romantic feel and the music isn’t your typical feel but still was enjoyable. We ordered the lasagna and the filet mignon. They were amazing and so flavorful and tasted very healthy and organic. We also got the flourless torte cake I believe it was and trust me get it! It was delicious. Overall very happy with this experience

We were sadly disappointed with our meal. The weekly menu offered only 4 “small plates” and 3 “large plates”. The selections looked quite interesting, so we ordered 3 of the small and 1 large. They did not skimp on portion size, so that’s good. But across the board, seasonings were heavy-handed, making dishes barely edible. Way too much salt in everything. Too much garlic in hummus, too much dressing on the salad, too much confit on the burrata (which featured lots of pomegranate seeds instead of the promised strawberries), too much hot sauce and oil floating on the soup. Not only did this affect flavor, but it made dishes less visually appealing - kind of sloppy looking. The service was fine and the drinks were very good.

The Block is a jewel on the MidCoast, nestled in historic Thomaston. Featuring fantastic food from a select menu. We had the Mother’s Day brunch starring chef “Wiley” who delivered mouth watering brisket hash and French suzette toast. Boom! Owner Marty personally handled the front of the house, making us feel like family.

Love the food, great service nice vibe. A tad loud and the menu is maybe not for everyone, but you can't beat the freshies. The chairs ae uncomfortable for long stretches - no lumbar support.
