Rediscover Maine dining. Native ingredients honor Maine’s indelible heritage.

Upscale contemporary design meets with charming rustic elements, combined with a bright and inviting dining destination surrounded by ocean views suspended over the cliffs.

    Emma was such an amazing server and Abby is the sweetest hostess! We had a wonderful table with a water view and they surprised my husband and I with champagne as a birthday treat. The house bread is a must, as are the mashed potatoes. Enjoy!

    The view is just amazing, we would go back anytime we are in the area just for that. The service was above average. However, the food was not very good. Prices were reasonable and there is a kids menu, so it’s fine for the entire family.

    As someone who has celiac there is a great level of anxiety when dining out. Every single person that worked there went above and beyond to make sure my food was safe! It was delicious! The most beautiful view I have ever dined at! Treat yourself, you will not regret it!

    My Husband and I ate here and loved the food. There is really no bad table in the restaurant that doesn’t have an amazing view. Our waitress was sweet and very attentive. Menu choices were well diverse. I had the chicken and it was tender and moist. My husband got the scallops and said they were a good choice he just wish it came with more on his plate. Some portions are small but the quality is where it takes it home.

    The Cliff House Teller Restaurant is absolutely outstanding! The view of the ocean is breathtaking with cliffs of rock below. The service was friendly and helpful. The Lazy Man Lobster dinner was exceptional and served with delicious mashed potatoes and green beans. Our first course of Lobster Corn Chowder was excellent and the BEST I have ever had. Freddy, our server was so kind and polite. I ordered Blueberry Lemonade that they made for me. It was also the very tastiest I have ever had. The quality of food here is 5-star. We had breakfast today and the Blueberry French Toast was so delicious and moist and my favorite of all time. The views, food and service are all exceptional and I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant.
