Restaurants near Abbot Trailside Lodging

Our go to restaurant! Never disappoints! We've been to many cities enjoying their fine food and drink offering's. Our little bistro in Bangor, Maine tops them all!

The food and cocktails were absolutely delicious, and the staff were so sweet!

The dinner was excellent as prepared however the portions are sparce. Excellent short rib, tender and seasoned moderately, vegetable portions were slightly less than a spoonful of broccoli, and two slivers of potato, two slivers of carrots? High prices, great quality very sparce portions.

Good, but there is room for improvement. Cocktails were perfect! Igloos were clean, private, quiet, and well lit. The ambiance is always wonderful at Kanu, which is why we keep going back. Plus, we typically enjoy everything we order- this time around the appetizers hit it out of the park. The meatballs and the blush salad were delicious. No need to change those recipes! The downside with the food was that the entrees weren’t as good as they typically are, however, we will give it another shot. We know the kitchen works hard at this restaurant. One more downside…Service was incredibly slow, however understandable since it was a Saturday night. My party had been sitting for over 40 minutes before I had gotten up and asked for water. The server was aware of how slow things were moving, so she comped the cocktails and also removed half the price for the appetizers. And for this, even though our bill was lowered, we tipped appropriately to what the total amount would have been. We understand that a restaurant operates as a machine and it’s not always the servers who slow things down. In the end, we will continue to dine at Kanu, but hope this feedback helps. Thanks for a memorable night with an understanding waitstaff!

The elegant grand home and chef prepared meal was outstanding. A great place for a unique dinner experience.
