Robert's Maine Grill

First time here. Got reservations for early dinner on Saturday. At 445pm there was plenty of seats available. Had the oysters and calamari for appetizers and they were delicious. For mains we got NY strip and Ribeye med rare with garlic herb butter. They were cooked to perfection. Added a crab cake and the breading and flavor were terrific and even had a small kick at the end. The Mac and cheese was worth fighting over. Great atmosphere and attentive staff. Quick trip from NH

Great experience! We ordered the raw oysters, steamers, fried clam bellies, and stuffed lobster. Everything was delicious especially the clams. I didn’t love our cocktails — next time, will stick with a simple glass of Chardonnay.

We live in Illinois and we're out east on a family vacation. We decided on Roberts for my parents 51st anniversary dinner and everything was delicious! Not picture was also the grilled salmon and the baked haddock. Everyone was extremely happy with our meals.

The place is located on this beautiful lake. I was lucky to get a window I could peer out and see it. The building is colder than expected - and loud! I was thinking it would be kinda quiet but it was bustling. I got the stuffed lobster and it was kinda cold when I got it, but tasty. The tail and the stuffing were the best parts... the claws of the lobster I thought were mushy and undercooked. I also got oysters with horseradish - they were fun. This was actually the first time I'd had a lobster with the feet still attached and my server was very kind to explain that you don't eat them. In hindsight, I think I would have gone somewhere else.

Had a great meal here at Robert’s in Kittery. Started off with an appetizer of fried calamari which was perfectly crispy and salted. For main course we had a lobster roll and fried scallops. Scallops weren’t as crispy as the calamari but the flavor made up for it. Highly recommend Robert’s for some seafood but look to spend a little bit of money while you’re there

I did a little online digging for restaurants in Kittery with the highest reviews and I came across Roberts. I made a reservation for 630 because being Saturday night I assumed it would be busy. Thank God I did because after checking in to our table the poor lady behind me was told that it would be an hour and a half wait! Yikes! Before I get to the good stuff I will say that the ONLY negative thing about this place was the waiting. Once seated, it was 10 minutes before we had drinks, 30 minutes for the appetizer and an hour for our dinners. The waitress was very nice, but there was only so much that she could do. The kitchen was clearly backed up. Now that that's out of the way, EVERYTHING was worth the wait. The kids had pasta and a cheeseburger, my wife had the lobster risotto, and I ordered the ceviche and the stuffed lobster. After the first bites, the long wait time faded away and we were glad that we stuck it out. The raw bar was very impressive, the atmosphere was great and the food was awesome. 2 stars for the service is only because of the long wait times.

Great portion size Great flavor We had the Clams Linguine, Crab Cakes, New England Clam Chowder, Lobster Mac n Cheese, and Grilled Scallops. Service was good in the beginning and then not so great. Parking was not so easy.

Traveling from Tennessee all up to Acadia and decided to give Robert meat grill a try for lunch. We had the halibut with carrots and potatoes, lobster, mac & cheese, and a crab and avocado, grilled sandwich with green beans and other onion rings. For appetizers we had two crabcakes and cheese curds. Being our first time in Main, we also tried the blueberry soda. Brandie, our waitress was very kind and said we should also try it with a splash of pink lemonade in it which we liked even better, and we thought it was fun to check out anything blueberry during our short time here in Maine! The blueberry soda is a little bit bitter, and the lemonade helped it quite a bit. My daughter loved the mac & cheese-it is a top which makes it a little dryer and that's a personal preference type thing. My husband loved the crab and avocado sandwich, which was grilled to perfection and had two slices of Havarti cheese in addition to the crab and avocado. Super tasty and we would recommend this. It had a generous amount of an avocado and could be too much if you don't love avocado. The brown butter halibut was very good and the potatoes were excellent. I personally find the carrots were very undercoat and crunchy. It's also multicolored carrots and I thought the dark purple carrots were very bitter. Hands-down, all three of us agree our absolute favorites for the onion rings and cheese curds. The cheese curds seem to be hand breaded and made in house and they were excellent. They came with a marinara sauce as well. The onion rings might be the best I've ever had and that is one of my favorite foods. The onions were sweet And the beer batter was outstanding. The atmosphere was great and we could actually hear each other talk. The exterior of the building is really cool with a lighthouse as part of the façade. We made a reservation and we're seated immediately and had great service from Brandi. We were there at 2:30 in the afternoon on a Monday and they were busy but not overly crowded.

Our server, Krista A, was phenomenal. She was attentive, detailed, and kind. The food was amazing and really hit the spot. Would absolutely return here. Was not that pricey for two seafood dishes right near the outlet. We paid $50 total (and then added tip) So grateful for such a great experience and amazing server.

It's losing points for me because of service, not for the food. I love their oysters. The last two times I've come to Robert's, I make a reservation, I'm seated, and then 15-20 minutes goes by, and not one server will even make eye contact with us. That's to say after 20 minutes, I have to get up, go to the front table and ask for a server to give us some attention. It's like this. It's the responsibility of whoever takes us to our table to tell the server that they've got a new customer. It takes an hour to get there, I'm not gonna wait another half hour just to get a drink. There's often two or three hostesses behind that little table up front, (doing what?) maybe they should learn the service side to make the restaurant better. Wake up, Robert's.

Way downhill... We went for my son's high school graduation because he loves the chicken sandwich. We were told that the sandwich could no longer be made after 4:00 because of some arbitrary rules developed by the geniuses running the menu here (this is despite the fact that fried chicken and other sandwiches ARE on the dinner menu). There was no flexibility. They would not make it. We weren't jerks about it. We thought about doing a Jack Nicholson a la The Last Detail and ordering everything separately to be put together but decided against it. The waitress also told us you can no longer order a side salad... On top of it the service was really bad. It took forever to get drinks and order but then everything came out in rapid succession. Dirty dishes were not being bussed and new things were coming out fast - there was nowhere to put anything. We had a party of 7 so it was pretty big. I had a reservation but they weren't ready for us when we got there. I've been to Robert's dozens of times over the years and I think this was the last one.

My family and I visited for dinner on a Tuesday night and we had no issues getting a table with a great view of the water out back. Not the ocean but a big pond. We began our meal with a house salad and an order of the crispy calamari. My daughter enjoy her oversized portion of the house salad before her meal. The calamari was cooked fresh and was not greasy. Nice size portion. Added some salt and pepper for our liking. Our main meal consisted of the lobster cobb salad, the Maine's best fish and chip, and the grilled salmon. My wife loved her lobster cobb salad. My daughter believed her salmon was very dry and the best part of her meal was the vegetable medley. My fish and chips were cooked fresh and served hot. Needed some salt and pepper for my liking. The service was very good and friendly. The prices were reasonable and there is plenty of parking in their private parking lot.

Lots and lots of reviews about Roberts; it's an understandably very popular stop for many hungry visitors to Kittery. To briefly update our thoughts: we enjoyed a mostly happy dining experience last week highlighted by some of the best oysters we've had away from Prince Edward Island: fresh, succulent, briny. Really good. Not cheap ($42 per dozen). Another of our favorites, the crab cake ($20), was tasty as well. We ordered a lobster roll ($34) and were less happy; not a lot of lobster for the price. But the fried scallops $28) were delicious and just right with the crispness outside. We had a short wait for dinner in spite of our reservation, but we were quickly served and attended to by our server Brittany. There's a busy bar scene. In all we enjoyed our visit here. Reservations are essential.

I enjoyed a delightful birthday dinner here. The ambience is really lovely, especially given its location right off the highway and among a major outlet mall area. If you sit in the main dining room, you have a nice view of the pond our back. All of their food is sourced locally where possible, so it was really fresh and delicious. I appreciate that the menu is fairly simple, and I don't think you could go wrong. I enjoyed a few selections from the raw bar as well as the Seafood Newberg. Dessert was so delicious, I ordered one to go.

Such a cute stop as you're entering Maine... delicious food and gorgeous decor inside. Service was ok. It was a little slow at first as it was a bit busy but understandable at the beginning of season. We sat in the bar/lounge area

We stopped for lunch before proceeding to our summer rental in Harpswell. Although is was around 2 p.m., the restaurant was still quite busy with the lunch crowd. We were fortunate to find two seats at the bar and there was Heather presiding over it and mixing perfect libations. A year had passed plus a few months since our last visit but it was as if it were only last week. The oyster menu has expanded and choices included many new selections. We started with the "baker's dozen" of oysters and were not disappointed. The Mohegan Cliffs were quickly a favorite. The oysters were, as I mentioned to Heather, perfectly shucked with nary a speck of shell in any of them. My wife had the shrimp scampi and I had a favorite, the haddock Reuben which was excellent on grilled, seeded rye. Both were very good, well seasoned. Robert's never disappoints. Great ambiance, service and of course the food is consistently top notch.

When in Kittery, Maine, you MUST go to Robert's Maine Grill! This is a restaurant that I absolutely have to hit every time I go to Maine. Every time. You seriously will not regret it! The seafood is SO fresh here and every dish is literally amazing. I love getting the lobster Mac & cheese, sometimes the lobster risotto for an entree and for apps, the clam chowder for sure & mussels. I've been coming here since I was a kid and they just don't disappoint. It's very cold here in the summer though, so definitely bring a jacket or sweater if you get cold easily like me.

The restaurant is very nicely decorated, think coastal vibe, elegant and not kitshy. We were promptly seated and given menus. At 5pm on a Sunday they were out of lobster!!!!! That was shocking! They had dishes that had lobster pieces, but you couldn't order whole or tails. The onion rings look better than they taste, they're just average. The Cesar Brussel sprouts were quite good, but took getting used to the combination of a lot of Cesar dressing...I would other them again. The lobster roll was full, but for a roll I thought quite pricey. The Mac and cheese is made with real cheese, which an 8 year old wouldn't approve off, but adults who are into cheese appreciate. I had the fish and chips. The fish was excellent! Oh, and the corn bread is solid.

Ordered two lobster rolls for me and the wife...I can't complain about the taste, the lobster tasted great and I liked that I could do a half butter half mayo roll. However, the fries were super soggy, and there was probably way under a pound of meat in each roll. For $65 I expected a little more to be fair. Both me and my wife are still hungry after eating them! Also, I subbed the fries for coleslaw and only got a quarter of a cup which should have just been included in the meal not as a substitute if they don't have enough to sub in the meal. Overall disappointed, which is a shame because I've gone in here before and had some really good food from a great staff and have had a nice time at the bar.

The atmosphere and service here are both great! The food was fresh and very tasty. This was our third visit here and we left satisfied again! The steamers were great! We loved everything we ordered!

Stopped into Robert's Maine Grill and Raw Bar and started with the clam chowder--it was light, creamy, and full of flavor, with perfectly cooked potatoes that added great texture. For my main, I went with the fish and chips and opted for the Cajun sweet potato fries. The fries were tasty, though I would've loved a bit more seasoning to bring out that Cajun kick. The fish itself was fresh, but the breading wasn't quite my favorite--just a personal preference. That said, I'd absolutely go back to try more from their menu. The atmosphere was welcoming, and it's clear they take pride in what they serve.

Food was very tasty but the amount of lobster on the lobster roll I purchased was not worth the $34 I ended up paying! It fell far short of worthiness for this dish!

I was shocked how busy it was for a wintry Sunday. Tables full just about 45 mins after opening. Sat at the high tops next to the bar, I like my back support so the no back seats was uncomfortable. I'm not one to get steamers at a restaurant, but they cook these in beer and it had so much flavor I didn't need the butter so I skipped it. I also enjoyed the crab cakes. The steamers was a large portion to price id say. The crab cakes smaller for the price but tasty. Service was friendly but we didn't see our server too much. It is a nice local place. I love the decor and the atmosphere makes me feel at home because it is very much the Maine vibe.

Do you have any idea how tricky it is to find a decent restaurant for anniversary that's open the day before Independence Day? I sure as hell didn't until recently. But after blowing through 2 reservations, Robert's Maine Grill proved to be "third time's the charm". Before I start, major props to RMG for allowing their patrons to book reservations via their website. This is how us introverts rock it in the 21st century. Okay, onto the review. Ostensibly placed right along the strip of Kittery (as I like to call it), this place has ample parking all around the house-like building. The interior immediately boasts a beach house feel which really gets patrons in the mood for casual summer fine dining. The menu has quite the range - from your typical New England fried seafood platters to more refined dishes such as the lobster risotto. I decided to embark upon the latter on this day whilst wifey got the lobster cobb salad. Before we get to those, however, we must first discuss their infamous lobster sliders. Despite the menu listing these in the plural and what some of the guests' photos might have you think, the price is PER slider. So, you just order the amount you want (1 per person is recommended) and add up the total. Much like the lobster rolls, these are available either hot or cold with warm butter or mayo, respectively. We like ours warm. Wifey and I each got one and it was heaven in biscuit form. We didn't even care that the biscuits inevitably crumble apart because everything tastes the same going down anyway. The lobster was tender and blended perfectly with the homemade buttery biscuits. The lettuce was a nice touch, too. I have zero critiques for this appetizer. 10 out of 10, would recommend! Wifey also informed me her cobb salad was equally excellent. She wasn't sure if ordering a salad as a main course on anniversary night would be adequate enough for the occasion. But I assured her that it was *her* day, too...and to just...go with her heart's desire. As for the lobster risotto, it was mostly superb! I wish the spinach had been chopped up a bit smaller so the stems wouldn't wrap around the fork like spaghetti, but that's a minor footnote. The risotto was saucy with a slight bite as it should be. And naturally, we don't need to go over how awesome the lobster was again. I will note that I appreciate the copious amount of lobster meat that is included with this dish in addition to the prominent half-lobster tail used to garnish the risotto. True, it comes in its shell. But the meat was nearly effortless to deshell. Oh, there was a slight sweetness to the sauce coating the risotto, but nothing too out of place. 9 out 10, overall. By the way, a little caveat for folks who end up dining on the second floor as we did: there's no restroom up there. Which means - you guessed it! If you have to use the facilities for any reason, you must painstakingly walk down the flight of stairs, locate the restroom, then walk back upstairs when all is said and done. Have to admit...I almost died laughing when wifey asked the waiter if the place had an elevator. XD Perhaps this was a mere oversight or possible inconsideration on the architect's part when designing this lovely establishment. Still, it would have been nice to include a second bathroom option for the folks upstairs. After all, there's evidently a TON of older folks who reside and vacation throughout the New England area as well. At the time of visiting, it didn't seem overly busy. But we wanted to book a res just in case there was some pre-4th of July rush or something. We DID notice an uptick in cars parked in lot after we left though. It seems the place really starts to pick up between 6-8pm. Much like any other popular restaurant, I suppose. The waterfront view is a nice touch as well. I wouldn't mind eating here during the peak of sunset one evening. We certainly plan on returning here in the future. Got my eyes on either the fried sea scallops or fish n' chips next. For now though, I'm giving Robert's Maine Grill 4 buttery lobster sliders on biscuits bursting at the seams out of 5.

Location and service were both good. Food was totally forgettable. Whole lobster was way overcooked and extremely chewy. Also was served without butter. Scallops entree was extremely salty. Crab cake app was bready and bland. Blueberry pie and cornbread were both very good. Will be looking for other dining options next time.

Service is was mediocre at best. We visited the bar while waiting for our table. Bar service was slow, the bartender rang up the wrong check on my card. Once we finally got seated, we got the outdoor table we requested but our waitress acted as if she was barely interested in being there. Our Appetizer was overcooked and the Food took way too long to arrive at the table. The table next to us sat down 15 min after us but had eaten and paid before our food even made it to the table. Once the food got here, it was good, but the overall unacceptable level of service doesn't make me want to return.

This eatery just across the New Hampshire/Maine border was a nice surprise and the seafood plus appetizers were stellar! We started off with the deep fried battered cauliflower Buffalo style and the Fried Brussels Sprouts with parmesan cheese, Caesar dressing, bacon, and scallions. Both were very good! For entrees we had two orders of the roasted garlic penne in a creamy white sauce, cherry tomatoes and spinach and one was plain and the other we added lobster. The lobster Cobb salad was huge, must have and came loaded with lots of lobster plus romaine, tomatoes, bacon, avocado, egg, red onion, and blue cheese crumble with a nice vinaigrette dressing. The last dish was six huge grilled scallops with squash, spinach, crispy potatoes, and a bacon cream sauce. I'd highly recommend this spot if you go! We really enjoyed the service and our server was constantly checking up on us too! The inside resembled and old but remodeled boathouse with wood floors and boating decor all around.

One of our go-to restaurants in Freeport. Fresh seafood with good service A bit on the expensive side, but we keep coming back.

Bottom line, you get what you pay for. We loved our lunch and it was not cheap. I got the seared scallop which came with spinach, squash and a very light cream sauce that was so yummy. So yummy. Big scallops and many of them. Sauce taste was the star here. After I ordered it my server said it was one of her favorites, too. Definitely recommend this dish. SO good. Hubby got the fish Reuben sandwich. He really liked it. Fried fish dressed up as a Reuben. Really very good. He raved about the Cole slaw, too. The lunch menu is the same as the dinner menu. It is a really really big place. The room is large, high ceilings, and it isn't a quiet romantic place, which is fine. There is a central bar, lots of hustling and bustling and a great ocean vibe. Like lots of people on vacation and shopping looking for a rest and a great meal. Service was great, food was great only gripe is that is was not economical. Fancy restaurant prices for a place that is not fancy. We would go back and we both would order same dishes. To me that is 5 stars.

Don't go here on a peak day or time if you're seeking to have nice low volume conversation. This restaurant gets extremely loud weather sitting on the first floor or on the second floor. With that being said, I would strongly recommend the second floor for a better chance at a quiet conversation. We started out by ordering 10 shrimp in a cocktail style fashion for the table, and they were very crunchy and delicious. Although it's a small pet peeve, it would've been nice for them to have brought out more than one little plastic cup of cocktail sauce in order to satisfy 10 shrimp. Pricing is fairly reasonable at this location in the heart of the Kittery outlets, but don't be deceived by its location as the food is terrific.

Robert's Maine Grill is good for what it is: A high volume, high turnover, crowded (in summer at least) tourist pit stop for good food, decent service, and decent drinks. I guessed what I was in for when we stopped here for an early dinner on our drive back to Massachusetts from Northern Maine. My expectations were pretty low. And, they exceed them. I enjoyed my Lobster Roll (hot buttered | add clam chowder | sub onion rings for fries) very much *except* for the clam chowder, which was potato forward and largley clamless. My partner enjoyed her Classic Caesar Salad (add Grilled Salmon), too. The facilities are newer (or recently remodeled) and well maintained; things were relatively clean for a busy place; but they could use tables with adjstable feet. We and lots of folks near us were stuffing napkins, etc., trying to keep them from rocking. Neither one of us were impressed with our choices, but neither were we disappointed (except for the aforementioned potato-forward clam chowder). And it's location was convenient: Easy off/on I-95. We're not going to hurry to go back, but nor will we avoid Robert's.

We were seated earlier than our reservation which was nice. My wife thought it was similar vibe to upscale Cracker Barrel but it was more seaside to me. Prices are a little high but we knew that going in. Lobster Mac had plenty of lobster and the grilled scallops are excellent. A really good meal with a decent wine selection.

I came here with my friend for dinner and it was so nice. It was honestly one of the best places I've been to for lobsters. I got the stuffed lobster which was absolutely amazing and it was my first time eating lobster and they even gave you a little bib and a utensils to help you with it in a bucket to put the pieces. we got the crabcakes and the oysters and the blueberry pie as well which were all amazing. The food was very high-quality and the service was really fast and the ambience of the place was super cool because it seemed like it was modern but also old-school.

Came in today for a good lunch but was over charged $4 I didn't question the charge and as I was leaving I confirmed with the hostess that $32 was price for Lobster Roll but was charged $34 Instead of apologizing or trying to fix the situation she never called a manager over and just said well we're going to be increasing our prices and the Menu doesn't have the updated prices. Just really unprofessional older hostess who couldn't be bothered

We were staying the night in lodging located down the road and shortly after checking in went looking for someplace to eat and saw this restaurant. After reviewing the menu, my wife ordered blackened salmon that came with rice and a vegetable. I requested what was billed on the menu as the best fish and chips in Maine that turned out to be a generous portion, but less flavorful than advertised.

Lunch and dinner, excellent each time. Service was friendly, prompt, and knowledgeable, and our meals were delicious. I particularly enjoyed the fried calamari because it was lightly breaded and tender - so often other restaurants I've suffered at offer rubberized chunks of doughy breadcrumb-coated innertubes. Pasta dishes, clam chowder, fish all good. Highly recommended - it's my go-to restaurant when entertaining visitors and friends.

Sandy Jackson (no relation) was a great server. Let's start with the food. I had the special which was a baked halibut over mashed potatoes and roasted Brussels. Delicious flavor with hint of lemon and ritz cracker crust. Mom had the fish and chips which were equally as good..noted as she ate both pieces which never happens. Dessert was amazing too. Perfect Mom Daughter dinner date.

The food here is awesome, the views are lovely, and the service is fast and friendly. You do not feel like you are on the outlet strip in Kittery but inside on the shores of a small coastal town. We make a point of stopping here whenever we are in the area. It can get very busy, so secure a reservation if you know when you will be dining. The wait moves fast if you do not have one, so do not despair. The seafood is the shining star here, so if you love it, get it. There is plenty for those who are not seafood fans. The beer battered chicken tenders on the appetizer menu were amazing! Crispy and flavorful with tender chicken inside. We have been pleased with all our choices over the years. It is nice to have a restaurant where you know you cannot go wrong.

Back to leave another review of Robert's! We come every year and always have a delicious meal. We ALWAYS go for the steamers... they never disappoint. The beef and garlic they are steamed in is sooo good. This time we also tried the lobster sliders. YUM! A good amount of lobster on a homemade biscuit. The biscuit is insanely delicious-- but a little dense/filling. After splitting an order of steamers and each having one slider, both of us were full. Ambiance is always the same-- clean, well lit, always busy regardless of the time of day. Staff is always friendly and welcoming, but didn't receive the type of service this time that we are used to... we barely saw our waitress. Regardless-- the food is always so good that even if the service lacks a little it is well worth the visit!

Favorite spot for fresh oysters and strong drinks. Service is quick, prices are fair.

Disappointed- spendy food- busy, noisy, couldn't wait to leave. Might try again after summer crowds leave

The lobster roll was pretty average, not particularly big and kind of small. For the price, it's really too much. I feel like I can make much better lobster rolls.

Come for r the outlet stores, stay and eat at this Maine gem. Filled with local charm and laughter bounces off the windows overlooking the water. I have eaten here several times and it is becoming a regular part of our trip further north. Food is on par with more expensive place nearby. Service is always with a smile. 4.5

What an amazing place! Food was outstanding, bartender, a super professional! Loved the mussels, fish and chips, scallops on a fresh salad. Great beer selection too. My favorite Kittery spot.

One of my favorite meeting spots with family and friends! The word is out so be sure to book a reservation online before heading to RMG. As a Mainer I use this as a meeting spot for my MA family. The lot is spacious so plenty of parking and the food and service is stellar. This Cobb salad caught my eye on the menu and with fresh lobster meat chucks ontop... it did not disappoint! I would give RMG 10 stars if that was an option.

3 1/2 Food underwhelming. Pretty restaurant. Lobster roll was nothing special. The slices of roast beef on the special were very thick, fatty, and chewy.

Robert's Maine Grill has the best lobster I've ever had. The broiled lobster with drawn butter was super fresh, sweet, and cooked just right. The meat was tender and paired perfectly with lemon buttery goodness. Located right near the New Hampshire border, Robert's Maine Grill is a must-stop for amazing seafood.

We stop at Robert's on our way from Mass. to Sebago. We've loved the food and service every time we go. The atmosphere is classy, but remains casual. This round, I had the lobster roll (pictured) and my wife had the fish and chips. We loved both!

Disappointed in our visit to Robert's. Lobster had no taste so probably frozen which is a sin for a restaurant in Kittery! Service was good but will be our 1st and last visit to this tourist trap.

Not sure what is going on here but customer service is horrible. The hostess gave my children an eat crap look and all 3 ladies that work there just stared and did not want to speak . This is uncalled for, when they came to get their food they said have a good day to the hostess and nothing in return. It's horrible I will not return here. Are yall singling ppl out to whom you want to give customer service??? I will call to speak to the manager immediately because I speak so highly of the food here and my hard earned money to have my child and family be treated this way! We shouldn't be coming here if you all are inconsiderate and customer service is not being returned. I work in this industry and this is not how we do business!!!!!!

This is the place for lobster in Kittery. I've never tried the oyster bar but it looks good and fresh. Great food and excellent service. Excellent lobster rolls. I had a full lobster dinner here in the past . Yummmmy. It's a very quaint place. I just wish they would add Diet Dr Pepper or Dr Pepper zero to the drinks menu for southerners.

Our family go to lunch spot on the weekends when we are in the mood for great seafood! Their raw bar: oysters clams and shrimp cocktails are the best!!!! They are so fresh w so many varieties. Their baked haddock is also my fav dish here And i havent found anywhere else that tops their haddock, fish and chips and fried clams. New england is full of great seafood places but this restaurant is SOLID every time. Tip: try to make reservations days ahead since ppl line up and ive seen people get walk away because wait time was so long. There is plenty of parking but it does fill up fast! So we try to go closer to opening times.

Stopped at Roberts and we couldn't have been happier! The food was amazing and the service was excellent. We sat outside and really enjoyed the covered deck area. We will definitely be back!

The food here is always great! It's usually pretty busy, so I'd recommend making a reservation to avoid a wait. With such a wide variety of options on the menu, there's something for everyone to enjoy!

After a long day of touring the area, we enjoyed a relaxing and delicious dinner at Robert's. The restaurant space is open and airy comprising two stories with large windows overlooking Piscataqua River. We were early enough to be seated by the windows with the river view. We started with appetizers of the Buffalo Cauliflower and the Caesar Salad. The cauliflower came beer batter fried with a buffalo sauce. It tasted good and was a large serving. My only note is that the I wish the cauliflower was softer. For entrees, we ordered the lobster roll--delicious; the grilled scallops with corn, spinach and crispy potatoes under a bacon cream sauce--really delicious!; baked haddock--nicely prepared and delicious!; and the grilled salmon--a large portion that was light and fresh! We paired our meals with glasses of wine off the menu, and they were very good as well! We left full and happy!

Late night dinner after a drive up from Boston. Outstanding food and perfect service. Had a couple of tasty pints from a Kittery brewery called Tributary while Husband started with the chowder (piping hot and full of clams), and I had an assortment of 6 fresh oysters (locally sourced Maine and New Hampshire) unparalleled in sweetness and brine. Each of us also had a lobster slider, which is like the best lobster roll on a fresh butter homemade biscuit...deliciousness. For mains, my husband had the lobster mac (great cheese flavor), while I had grilled scallops (served in a bowl over roasted potatoes with fresh cooked spinach and squash in a cream sauce). This dish was probably one of the best scallop dishes I've had in years. Just needed some fresh bread to soak up the last drops of bacony heaven. Robert's doesn't disappoint!

Went looking through reviews to find the best seafood place in the area and came across Roberts. My husband and I were looking for someplace with good food and a nicer restaurant. The food was super good and staff was great. i highly recommend.
