Brian's Bistro - RUMFORD

This is easily the best restaurant in the area. The food (an Asian grill with chicken, pork tenderloin, mixed veggies onion rings and linguine with white wine and garlic sauce with an Asian glaze) was delicious, filling and only 18 bucks! . The waitress was excellent and the decor of the restaurant was great. You can go there on a date with friends or with the family and somehow the atmosphere is perfect for all 3.

Owners are incredible. The food is delectable. The wait staff is exceptional. Two thumbs way up!

I was passing through Bar Harbor and decided to stop by this restaurant. The place looks fantastic, and I really appreciate seeing an open kitchen. I ordered the Putanesca, and it was simply incredible—definitely a dish to die for! It had a slight kick, was light, but had just the right amount of cheese to give it a creamy flavor. As someone from out of town, I would gladly have it shipped to me if that were possible. It’s the best pasta dish I've had in a long time!

Open for eight years and still going strong! I recently visited for the first time with my wife, and I honestly can't believe we hadn't been here sooner. I highly recommend making time to experience Brian’s Bistro. Whether you're grabbing drinks with friends or enjoying a meal, they've got a lovely bar area and a dining room where you can see the talented chefs, led by Chef Brian, in action. The waitstaff is attentive and friendly, and there are smiles all around. In short, the food is prepared with care, served warm, and consistently excellent. I urge you to visit and see for yourself—Rumford has a real gem here! Thank you, Brian, for chatting with us at our table tonight. We look forward to coming back! Pat and Jen

One of the best meals I've ever experienced! The food and dessert were fresh and homemade. I enjoyed the veal saltimbocca with linguine, and it was outstanding. The portion sizes are very generous. To top off my meal, I had the homemade cheesecake with blueberries and fresh whipped cream. I was blown away by how incredible this restaurant is and how fantastic the food tastes. YOU HAVE TO EAT HERE!!!
