Mache Bistro Restaurant Review

The menu at this rustic French bistro not only changes nightly, but chef Kyle Yarborough might not even have it set until mere hours before you arrive, so fresh from the farm is the cuisine. The dining room is cozy and welcoming and the bar alive with locals. Have a snack of picholine olives with tapenade, grilled bread and goat cheese or the charcuterie plate to start. Move on to Cabernet...

Little Mâche Bistro has developed a devoted local following among those who know good food; its soothing yet plain decor conceals a sophisticated kitchen -- you wouldn't expect an imported-cheese course offered in a place with plywood floors, but there is one. The menu here changes monthly; appetizers could include a salad of Maytag blue cheese, apples, and truffle vinaigrette; garlic-seared...

Meh food. Decent service. Annoying check in. If you call and tell me my reservation is at 7:30, don't tell me it's at 8 when I arrive.
Had the skirt steak and goat cheese/lobster peppers. Felt sick to my stomach before I got home and I personally make a better tasting steak. Mom had the Arctic char and liked it...

Actually 4 1/4. This was our first time here. The chef has a long history in Bar Harbor. He does not cook traditional French but French technique and flair.
The place is small and could use a lighter color on the wall to brighten it up.
We shared the pan roasted mussels with herbs. The mussels were fresh and tasty....

Great, unique food. Excellent artistically appetizing presentation. Lovely desserts and wines. Very romantic dinner setting for Bar Harbor. Excellent service. Pricey but worth it. Small inside with limited tables so call ahead!
