Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Biddeford

After reading many positive reviews about Earth at Hidden Pond, my boyfriend and I decided to go here for dinner while staying near the area. Even though almost all the reviews I read were positive, Earth managed to exceed my expectations! From the ambience to the service to the menu - you can tell detail was paid to every aspect. Admittedly I was worried about portion size but I can honestly say both of us walked out full. This restaurant is a wonderful choice if you’re interested in having a unique eating experience that focuses more on tasting over eating.

We attended the black truffle dinner evening. I want to recognize Amanda as a wonderful server. She is polite, friendly and a great wine sommelier. Although we loved the food, we were very disappointed in the lack of truffle flavor. All the dishes were described on the menu as containing black truffle. When Amanda served them to us, she described the dishes with truffles and we even saw truffle in the courses. However, to our pallet, there was no truffle flavor at all. I recognize black truffles are less pungent than the white, however, we cook with black truffles all the time at home and are very used to truffle flavor. We have eaten here before and enjoyed it, but we came specifically for the black truffle dinner because we adore truffles. For an almost $400 bill we did not feel the value was there. For that reason, I did not give five stars.

Excellent dining experience. The view is amazing Service was attentive. Food was very tasty- great flavor profile. Definitely a must when staying at Cliff House

Consistently fantastic food and service! We love all the options Portland’s restaurants provide and visit many of them. Since we visited David’s twenty years ago, we’ve decided that is where we will go when family/friends visit because all ages and palates find something they want to eat (meatloaf, tuna sashimi, burger, sirloin, steak au poivre, garlic knots, brussle sprouts, and salads), and we can rely on the quality.

Always love coming here! Great food and experience every time
