Best Date Night Restaurants in Orono

Well, y’all, the Reading Room sure knows how to treat folks right! My wife and I celebrated our anniversary with fresh oysters, a bottle of wine, filet mignon with lobster tail for me, and the Easy Lobster for her. Everything was absolutely phenomenal! The staff went above and beyond, especially the hostess and a woman named Brie who checked on us throughout dinner. They even surprised us with an anniversary card! True Southern hospitality all the way up in Maine! And that blueberry pie? Hands down the best I’ve had in all my travels! Worth every penny and then some!

So I take my wife here for our anniversary every year and I have for the last couple years so it’s not something I’ve done for a long time but it is something I’m gonna do from now on. The restaurant is amazing. The food is amazing. The service is amazing so, five stars across the board for that. The only thing I will say is if you go there be mindful that the tables are set really close together and we always seem to get stuck next to other people who want the whole room to hear their dinner conversation. So the one boutique I would make would be for the restaurant too. Let patrons know to keep their dinner conversation down to a minimum other than that, it’s great.

Sat upstairs near 2 larger groups which elevated the noise level but it did not bother us. Food & service was fantastic! Definately would recommend and return.

Excellent all round. Great service, fabulous food. Best dining in Bangor.

Our server was excellent. This was our first stop Bar Harbor very impressed with the menu and the food.
