| About: | Chef James Hale's presentation of these excellent dishes is sublime, and the taste equals the presentation. The menu offers a wonderful selection of "New American" filled with extraordinarily-good food, such as the grilled halibut with zucchini and squash. It is spicy with a hint of lemon. The pasta dishes, including angel hair with herb sauce and vegetables, are delicious and usually low calorie. The soups show flair and originality (try the creamy potato and tomato). And the desserts, from heavenly lime merengue to apple pie with coffee ice cream, are perfection. |

What began as a nice evening ended terribly. My husband, I and another couple enjoyed an evening on Acadia's lovely deck. The atmosphere was wonderful, the food better than acceptible, the service horrendous. The rolls are the same rolls served locally in another highend resturant. The lobster bisque the same as served a 1620. The salads were delicious. The menu is limited so two of our party chose the macaroni and cheese. That dish was wonderful! THe other two dishes, a pasta dish and the salmon, were adequate. Dessert, red velvet bread pudding, was not acceptible. The coup de graux, was the waiter spilling diet coke on me, not appologizing and in fact making a joke. I understand accidents happen, and had it been properly taken care of, this would have been no problem. Unfortunately, it was handeled correctly by neither the waiter nor the mamager. The four of us will not be returning to this pricey resturant. It is truely ashame since the atmosphere is wonderful!
Okay, I'm a meat and potatoes guy who wanted to take his wife to a very nice restaurant for our anniversary. When I saw the menu, I took a deep breath because the items were very gourmet and I was afraid I wouldn't find anything I would like.
My salad was exceptional! My entree made me slow down to enjoy it. And dessert was simple but very very good. It was one of the few gourmet restaurants I truly enjoyed. In reality, I loved the food and the atmosphere.
Excellent food, wonderful service, deck makes for romantic night out when not crowded.
