Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Tasty cranberry pecan chicken salad and my husband said the chicken tenders were some of the best he's ever had. We were there for a late lunch and the restaurant wasn't crowded so it was quiet and the service was fairly fast. Good to know...- the restroom was very clean. Overall a good experience.More

First time in area. Read reviews on TA so thought we would give it a try. Ordered the potato skins as app and burger to share with hubby. Both were good. Service was good as they were short handed and it took a little longer...to get food. But then again it’s a holiday weekend on a Saturday night.More

I wanted a beer and they had it. The food was good but nothing to write a glorious review over. Service was very good.

Ground Round has the feel of a Chain (e.g. Applebee's - Ruby Tuesday etc) but as far as I know isn't one. The food is okay, nothing elevated or fancy. The wife had the Burrito Bowl, and I had the Chicken, Cranberry salad. Both were...edible, but neither had any wow factor to them. We also split an order of Sweet Potato Fries were were likewise good but not great. The price was very reasonable by Maine standards ($44 including tax and tip) and that's the main reason it stays in business.More

I never in my life thought that I would have microwaved chicken tenders from a restaurant. Service was good and fairly prompt. But nothing can get past microwaved chicken tenders. If I wanted that I would have gone to the grocery store and have thrown...it in to the microwave.More

Dirty, rude staff. I understand post-COVID the shortage in staff but the hostess was very rude with us and food was average. I’m thinking the quality inn they share the parking lot with keeps them busy.

Visiting from Mississippi and New Mexico and we found this restaurant via Trip Advisor. We were not disappointed. Nice variety on the menu and the bar has several screens for watching ballgames. Our waiting staff were nice and attentive. Our food was hot and everyone...enjoyed their meal.More

My filet was not a filet - just a flat piece of some kind of meat. Not over an inch high and not charred.

Food is awesome. But for years they have offered bogo burgers on Tuesday. Suddenly no more! It still says it on the menu though...apparently their covid cleaning wipes it off. As I said to 4 women up the chain of command...both our menus said buy...one get one free. The last manager was the most indignant and claimed we were being rude. Another diner assured us we weren't rude. 1. If you've changed your offer...clearly mark it. 2.Don't tell me you posted it on local radio and Facebook. I'm a visitor here. 3. White out wipes off...cover the old words with duct tape if white out won't stick. 4. Don't ask me if I would have still ordered the burger...that's immaterial!!More

Our first visit since before the pandemic and my overall reaction is that the portions have grown 50% larger which the prices have doubled. My nacho plate was humongous so that I was able to eat less than half of it, while my companion's hamburger...was also huge (She was able to polish it off, however.) The prices, while still quite reasonable, are much higher than they were when I last visited. Also, it seemed that there many fewer menu items than there used to be.More

Best cheeseburger I have ever had, cooked my way, medium rare, cook knows what he's doing. Didn't visit during the covid hoax, refuse to wear a mask or patronize a business that harassed me about it.
