Reviews for Union River Lobster Pot in Ellsworth, ME
Brian and crew were absolutely fantastic, and we enjoyed a wonderful evening! The baked salmon with blueberry chutney was... excellent, and the lemon vinaigrette for our salad was fresh and light, perfect summertime fare. Finished off with their cookiesundae, and it was a perfect night out. Highly recommend! Absolutely worth the wait, which is beautiful with their river views.Will be back when we visit Maine again, for sure! Read more
My wife and I were in town for 5 days and came here twice it was so good! We celebrated my birthday with a slice of blueberry... pie and all kinds of lobster! We had the cheese curds, poutine, lobster roll, and just plain lobster. All fantastic. All so goodwe would have it again and again if we could!! Read more
The absolute MVP of the night was the guy outside boiling lobster. While we were waiting for our table we sat in the chairs that... are right outside the door while you wait and it was an awesome experience. The guy put on an absolute show for us and showed usthe difference in sizes and characteristics of each lobster ???? This guy may have been manning the boiler but he absolutelystole the whole show. The wait was long but we had so much fun waiting and it made us super confident in our dinner andexperience. Thank you for making the night special for the several families out there tonight! Above all else this setup isauthentic and nothing like we?ve experienced anywhere else in Maine. There was also a Tiki Bar outside by the river to drinkwhile you waited for your table. Food was great! Went with the lobster Mac and the drinks were on point. Everything my tablegot was great. Perfect experience and really delicious food. If you are in this part of Maine, come check it out. Worth thedrive from Bar Harbor, in my opinion! Quick FYI: Not dog friendly, including outdoors. There?s a lot of ducks in the area, so Iget it.

All the staff were very polite and friendly. The staff was very engaged and checked regularly. The food was excellent: I had the... stuffed haddock and I heard very good things about the steak and lobster. The raspberry and blueberry pies were also very good.Very clean and well spaced dining rooms. Even though the rooms were packed, I had no problem hearing everyone at the table. Iwould go here again.

The area was a nice waiting section with corn hole. But, what delicious food!!! The family enjoyed lobster and snow crabs. The... cedar plank salmon and sea scallops were amazing. We would recommend that you pack big spray in case you eat outside. We becamethe meal for them!! Read more

Very nice and clean restaurant with great food and atmosphere. Dining is indoors or by the creek. Lobsters are steamed outside,... lobster pot dinner and lobster rolls are recommended. Wide selection of local beers and flight of 4 available for $9. The placedoes get busy at dinner time so expect a wait and a longer than normal wait for food. Read more

While... we waited for our table we watched the guy who did all the cooking of the lobsters. What a system he had it down to a T. Ourfood was delicious including a piece of Blueberry pie.
