Stopped in here for dinner with family while visiting back in Maine. This was our first time here. I believe this was the last weekend they were open for the season. The restaurant is a step above. The dining selection including the day's made the my dinner choice very difficult. In addition the signature cocktails were very refreshing. I enjoyed the smoked old fashioned immensely. The server provided excellent customer service with a high attention to detail. The dining choices were completely enjoyed by all at the table. Finally, prices were commensurate with quality of the dining experience. I can't wait to check this out again.

My wife and I were fortunate to have discovered this wonderful restaurant on our first night of a two night stay in this area. The first night we had to have a light dinner, since we had a huge lunch earlier in the day on our arrival at Bangor airport. For a light fare, I had two delicious haddock fish tacos, and my wife had squash soup and a salad. Everything tasted fantastic, and the service was great as well. We definitely returned the second night to order some of their signature dishes. I had the shrimp and scallops dish that was out of this world. My wife had their halibut dish, and it was much better than any of the four expensive halibut dinners that she recently ordered at four different restaurants during a recent trip to Alaska. We eat seafood on a regular basis, and these all were outstanding meals. I believe that this restaurant will be closing for the season in a few days, but do yourself a favor and stop by here next season if you want some really great food!

We love going to Ironbound when we are in Maine as we are 3 times per year. The food is outstanding. A fresh twist on seafood. The Halibut is a favorite. Their corn fritters and corn bread are great apps as well.

We stopped here on the last night of our trip and it was by far the best food we had all week. The environment was cozy and romantic. The service was extremely competent, professional, and friendly. And the FOOD ya'll. If you're familiar with the Black Trumpet in Portsmouth NH, the food here is on par with the level of love, culinary expertise, and local ingredients. Make sure to have the oysters. They're fresh from the owner's son's farm harvested that day.

My wife and I were not customers at the Inn, however, we did dine at this establishment and found it to be wonderful. The menu was creative with many gluten-free offerings. The food was delicious well prepared, and presentation was stellar. Our wait person, Sonny, was professional, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The fresh local oysters were amazing. I would whole heartedly recommend Ironbound restaurant!

My wife and I have been meaning to dine here for some time. We are infrequent visitors to the area but were finally able to arrange a time to dine here. We were not disappointed! Their’s is a creative menu, with excellent preparation of top quality ingredients. Our meal was served by an extremely helpful, knowledgeable and friendly waiter named Sonny. Presentation was exceptional. The fresh local oysters were some of the best I’ve ever enjoyed. Dining here made for a wonderful evening. I would recommend Ironbound without hesitation!

Very friendly and welcoming ambience. A bar at the front entrance as well as seating to the right. Outdoor tables available as well. Very flavorful food, cooked to perfection. Service was was professional, kind, and quick- always checking on us. Worth the drive and one of the best dinner locations in Hancock.

First, I want to say that the ambiance was cozy, the food was good,BUT the prices were way out of line. One of the specials the night wewere there in August 2023 was ravioli. I got 3 big ravioli for $38.00!!!!My husband's two fish tacos were $23, our nephew's halibut was $42.These came in a little bigger than cereal sized bowls. No sides included.When we came home from vacation, and I had to enter this receipt onQuicken, I became so angry with myself for not raising a fuss when theravioli dish was placed in front of me. Live and learn, but the old adage applies... if you have to ask the price and the serving amount... you can'tafford it. Inflation is here to stay, but some things are just not worth whatthey are asking. Ironbound Restaurant is in that category. Bill for 3 adults,5 beers, 1 dessert shared...$252.72 including 20% tip. Prepared at home,this meal would have been under $50.Jacquie K

Me and my girlfriend stayed for 2 nights and we really enjoyed the room. Easy access and the accommodations were exactly what we thought they would be. The restaurant was fantastic, food was great and the vibe was fantastic in the dining room. Great outside section too with live music on Thursday! A very pleasant experience and if we are in this neck of the woods again this is a go to.

We went for dinner while on vacation at around 7:30 on a tuesday in August and it was quite busy. Glad we had a reservation. Everything about our dining experience was outstanding, the food, the ambience, and especially the staff. The oysters, which we were informed are locally farmed by a family member of the owners, were some of the best we’ve ever had. The lobster bisque rocked our worlds. And we thought how could it get any better? Then our main courses arrived, and I can only compare it to a michelin star caliber meal. Desserts were also exceptional. Could not recommend more.
