This place was recommended by our B&B and I wish that we had gone more then once. The food was local and fresh and the service was relaxed and professional. We had a drink at the bar while waiting for our table and the bartender was very personable without being obtrusive. We enjoyed everything we ordered from salads to the... more

I ate here with my fiance in August. Everything we had, from the appetizers to dessert was fantastic. Quite possibly the best meal out we've ever had. Nice cozy ambiance too. more

Town Hill Bistro was excellent. I like it better than any other restaurant we went to in Bar Harbor (burning tree, red sky, havana, etc). It was so good, we went back for dinner a second time! The staff is extremely friendly, the atmosphere was laid back and nice, they have a great wine list and the food is fresh,... more

This is one of three restaurants we visited based on the recommendations from tripadvisor.com. We had a reservation which I would recommend since this is a popular place. Food was very good and service prompt and friendly. This is a small restaurant so the owner is also the bartender and wait staff if needed. I watched him keep a careful... more

Town Hill was recommended by a server at Mache Bistro, another excellent option in Bar Harbor. TH was great. The atmosphere was comfortable and warm. Gnocchi pillows were amazing w/a mushroom sauce. Mussels were great too. Service was very relaxed. Decent wines by the glass. They had a fire going on our cool September night. Ahhh. more

Probably the best restaurant on Mount Desert Island.,,,,it's about 15 minutes by car from Bar Harbor. I'm guessing it holds about 24 people plus 4 more at the bar. It is artfully decorated with a gorgeous fireplace which would indicate that winter dining would be delightful. I was told that they plan to stay open at least 3 nights a... more

Ok, this is a very, very good place. Obviously a lot of attention to detail and a totally comfortable and enjoyable little bistro in the country. We went there two nights. So, why not five stars instead of four? The small plates are wonderful. Full stop. The mussels. gnocchi and lobster/corn ones were just over the top. However, my tuna... more

I didn't rent a car but took the free Island Explorer bus out to this place and it was worth the trip. Very nice wait staff and had a chance to chat with one of the owners which was fun to do, I always enjoy that. I sat outside on the deck on a beautiful evening for an early dinner... more
