Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in York Beach

The Burkett never disappoints. This time around, the Caesar salad was perfect - well balanced dressing and the boquerones were a nice touch. Our main courses, statler chicken breast on risotto, and baked stuffed haddock, could not have been better. Both were cooked perfectly and delivered hot. The room is lovely and the service friendly but not intrusive. Stop by for dinner; you will not be disappointed.

We went here first time years ago to get a drink while waiting for friends. Lively bar and GREAT beer selection. We wanted to stay but our friends had reservations for us at another place - and that place was not great. So on our next visit we wanted to try this place. Derek our server was super nice and knowledgeable. I asked for his recommendations as I had been on a streak of not asking and ordering something I was disappointed in. We started with his recommendation of crudo and it was fantastic. I normal order an app that is way too big and ruin my main meal. Then I got the Hake and my wife got the salmon. We got a side of shoestrings. All were excellent. If I’m being a Chopped judge I think a touch of acid would have made the Hake other worldly. Super lively great service - place was PACKED. Highly recommended

Lovely setting outside as we pulled up, taken to private seating area away from the other diners with a lovely view of a Christmas tree. Service was great while we listened to a sax and guitar duo in another room. Partner and I shared an appetizer, then.had salmon and halibut entrees, so much so, we had to take some home. On our way out, we had to stop in to the bar area and leave tips for the great musicians. You need to try this for yourselves!

The food was delicious. We have two gluten-sensitive people in our party and the staff was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu options. We’ll definitely be back!

We’ve been dining here for 3 years now. Something was off the mark this time. Don’t get me wrong the service was incredible and the atmosphere was top notch as usual. The food was lacking this time. It was good but it was lacking the extravagant flavors we’ve grown accustomed to when we dine here.
