How To Spot A ‘Hidden Gem’ Restaurant In Maine
There are so many places to eat in the state of Maine, that some really excellent spots get overlooked, or under appreciated, but they offer up incredible food, service, and a great atmosphere.
More than likely, they are small, family owned restaurants, or may have little, to no online presence, so they are not on everyone's radar.
Here are a few tips to find that "hidden gem"
- Look for restaurants that are not in tourist-heavy areas, like Bar Harbor, Old Orchard Beach, or Portland. Find places that have more of a local community vibe.
- Seek out establishments with unique names, or that specialize in Maine specific dishes.
- Hit the internet, and do some research. Lots of people find that using Yelp can be helpful, since they feature reviews from customers.
- Be friendly, and ask residents, or local experts about their opinions on their favorite spots.
