   This was an excellent find right in Central Maine! We wanted a nice dinner for New Year's Eve without traveling to "the other Maine". Front and Main in Waterville exceeded our expectations. From the moment we entered the beautiful, warmly lit lobby, we were greeted with smiles and a friendly welcome. The service was efficient and genuine, the food from Lemon Grass Muscle appetizer to entrees was delightful. Portions were generous and just enough. Patrons were also treated to a complimentary Champagne toast. We will definitely return. I did not have room to sample the dessert menu, but my eye is on the coconut cake for my next visit. Highly recommend, date night, social gathering or any occasion- you won't be disappointed. * I am not affiliated in any way with Front and Main, I do not write reviews often. I am a regular person who enjoyed my evening so much, I feel compelled to give them proper credit!! Many thanks!

   We were sat at a small table that was way too close to other guests who spoke loudly. It took the server almost 10 minutes to come to the table. When she arrived, she asked what brought us to the restaurant, we told her we were going to the show. We had an hour and 45 minutes before the show started so we should have had plenty of time. We ordered a bottle of wine, and it took her another 6 to 7 minutes to come back and tell us they were out of that wine. They only offer 2 Cabernets by the bottle. When we finally got our food, my salmon was too salty to eat. My husband ordered Steak Frits. His steak was salty, and the fries were so oily they were limp. We were still hungry, so we ordered dessert and the check. It took over 10 minutes for dessert to arrive. The Chocolate Torte was so hard it was difficult to cut with a spoon. We didn't get the bill with dessert, so we asked a passing server for our bill. We finally got up and met the server at the kitchen server station to get the bill.

   I love this restaurant, but the last few visits there’s been a problem with the food temperature. I had short ribs and my short ribs were impeccable. The temperature was perfect, but all the other pieces with it ….the purée,the carrots and the potatoes were all cool. They were not anywhere near warm enough so they’ve got to figure that out…. maybe warming up the plates? On my last visit my soup was cool and I should’ve sent it back, but of course the dishes are so beautifully plated and the soup had decorations on top, but I’m not the only one that has had a problem with temperature. I was at lunch with a friend and she had the same problem with her soup so the cook must get a plan. I can’t be the only one that’s having problems with the food temperature.
