Rediscover Maine dining. Native ingredients honor Maine’s indelible heritage. By partnering with local fisherman, farmers, distillers, and ranchers, The Tiller Restaurant combines the region’s distinctive culture and tradition with culinary innovation and sustainable practices for authentic and nuanced dining experiences.

Upscale contemporary design meets with charming rustic elements, combined with a bright and inviting dining destination surrounded by ocean views suspended over the cliffs. Seasonal breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus are prepared with farm-fresh local produce, line-caught fish, hand cut meats, and homemade recipes passed down from generation to generation.

During the month of August, the restaurant will have limited availability for non-resort guests.

    had 2pm reservation. when we arrived we were told the kitchen is closing soon until 5pm dinner. you may not be able to order food what??? why post 2pm availability on Open Table if you can’t order food??? Our waiter was rushing us to order to get food order in 1 min after we were seated before kitchen closed. Very limited menu Barely had time to look it over. Brunch clearly stated i. website 7-230. Felt extremely rushed but ocean views are spectacular. .

    What an incredible view, food, and service! A very special meal. We would highly recommend it for a special occasion - parents, please DON’T bring small children. It’s not that kind of place.

    The food and view were equally spectacular. We were booked for a late lunch and got the sense our server, who indeed catered to us well, was eager to depart. Other than that, it was an amazing experience overlooking the water and truly a culinary delight!
