Reply to comment by OurWhoresAreClean in What is the best steakhouse in Maine? by iknowyourded

We had dinner there about 6 months ago.. It was just barely ok. Probably about Outback level. Did we just go on a bad night?

no

If you just have to go to Portsmouth, go to the Wentworth. You'll at least feel like you paid for a great steak.

Really? We went to the Wentworth for the Thanksgiving buffet. It was horrible.. Like really bad. I know buffets aren't as good as ala carte.. But this was sad.. Everything was bland and overcooked.

Course from my 1 year living in New England I've found that no one hear likes seasoning or flavor. :) (Said with love and jest)

Turkey aint steak no matter how long they brine it off Granny Clampit Island.

I've been twice and it was great both times, so maybe?

Hey from a fellow IT guy.. Saw your post on Fortinet's..

I'll give it another shot. I haven't found a great steakhouse in the area yet.. Nick's in York was pretty good though.. 7 outta 10?

What we've found is that, aside from Library (which wasn't great for you), you pretty much have to go to Boston to get the real classic steakhouse experience. I haven't been to Nick's, but since we're in Topsham, if we're going to drive that far for dinner, we may as well drive a little further and get something we really like.

This is our go-to place in Boston, and it's excellent. We go down there a couple times a year when I have the Marriott points and it's always great.
