Graham Vinson
Took my amazing wife out for a date last night to Front & Main. Secured a reservation on Opentable, as getting a table can be hit or miss. They do have casual lounge areas available if too busy, so there’s usually always a place to sit without much of a wait. The atmosphere is modern and very clean. Large windows with lots of light and views. The patio is on the street, but far enough away that you don’t feel like you’re on the sidewalk. We typically park in the hotel’s lot (The Lockwood), walk up the stairs from the sidewalk and through the front door.

I went last night for a ginger ale and oysters. I dress pretty honelessy and down to earth. Yet I was impressed with how I was treated and served. The ambiance is classic boutique hotel chic. I was in a hurry and was expertly accommodated. I swear the oysters arrived in like 3 minutes!! It was not cheap, but I was happy with the experience. Also 18 below is closed on Monday. I will definitely eat here again. A nice addition to this region of Maine. They might want to add some lower priced items for folks of a more medium priced echelon, but I doubt that is the anticipated demographic. Love that it is near to the Paul Schrup center. Could make for a fun combo of dinner and an activity.

This first floor hotel restaurant is an absolute gem. Usually for these types of places you pay top dollar just because of the location/setting but the food was worth every penny. Possibly one of the best burgers I have ever had! Hearty and flavorful with an amazing bun. Can’t ask for much more!

We have enjoyed Front & Main twice and each experience was excellent. Service was great with check ins from waitstaff and managers making sure you have everything you need and a nice meal. The food has been mouthwatering and done very well. We like the focus on local farms and suppliers and the creative cocktail menu. We will be back and I would recommend to friends.

For our first trip to Front & Main, my wife and I went for my birthday. We had only made a reservation earlier that day online but had not problem getting the time we wanted.

Alright, so I admit, with two kids under 5, I’m heavily biased towards places that somehow can be both refined in menu and and kind in service. Front and Main offered some very tasty eats, (we had the Burrata with chicken as an app, Bucatini and Crispy Fried Chicken as entrees) and were quite impressed. Our server Anika was kind and on top of things and the manager, Taylor? (I’m sorry to have forgotten…) showed off her experience and knowledge of the craft, with timely check-ins and conversations with our littles. Great place. They’ll see us again.

This was especially delicious! I had the Lobster Bucatini. Wonderful balance of a creamy tomato sauce and succulent lobster. My husband, not in the mood for seafood, had the burger. Oh well. But, he said that it might have been the best burger he has ever had! It was all very delicious!!!

Roger Madore
We had the most amazing meal. We started with the grilled vegetable cakes and poutine. Both were incredible! The vegetable cakes had just the right amount of salt and spices but not overpowering. The fries in the poutine were not greasy and totally addicting, and the gravy was totally delicious. Next we had the crispy fried chicken and red flannel hash. The chicken was juicy and cooked perfectly. Wish it was just a little more crunchy, but the sauce was wonderful. The hash was very good! Bacony, smokey goodness! And we could not pass up a dessert – chocolate-hazelnut torte! To call it decadent is an understatement. Definitely share this with someone and with coffee! The staff was attentive without being overbearing. Courteous, polite and good-spirited. My compliments to waitstaff and kitchen staff alike. We will be back!

Along with a good friend, we went to Front and Maine for my husband’s birthday on July 6 with a gift certificate in hand. We have been to many restaurants across the state and I think that the combination of excellent food and service made this the best upscale meal we ever had. It is so nice to have a fine dining restaurant in the Waterville area.

Oh, wow! This is only my second time to the state of Maine, first time stopping here at Front & Main in Waterville and I enthusiastically recommend!
