Natalie's opened up early for me. You could tell from the friendly get go that getting a beer and a burger wouldn't be a problem and they truly cared about each patron's satisfaction with their experience. I was solo and passing through the pretty town on business and was looking for an early bite. Trip advisor said they were good... More

My wife and I had the three course prix fixe dinners. Portions were small but exquisite (and generally rich - no lack of butter and cream) - great attentive service - three small and delicious amuse-buche dishes as well (although the sliced radishes were too sharp by themselves) helped round-out the meal.

My wife and I arrived for our 6:00 PM reservation and we were promptly seated. The menu presented us with two choices: a three course with an optional wine pairing or a seven course dinner with a wine pairing. We chose the former. The wine and cocktail list presented several locally created cocktails. My drink, the Camden Hike" was a... More

Go. Just make the reservation, and go. Prepare for an unparalleled dining experience. Right down to the last touch, the staff members worked together to ensure excellence in service. The tastes and textures of the new menu were a pleasing adventure. I will definitely return!

We did the 7-course tasting and glad we did. Natalie's was recommended by Eater as one of the best dining experiences in Maine and the restaurant did not dissapoint. Great paste and portion sizes. Flavors and combinations were unique. Service was friendly and detailed. Beats any fine dining restaurant in Portland. We would move to Camden, just for Natalie's

What is not to love about Camden Harbour Inn and why would you go anywhere else when you have such an amazing restaurant right at the inn. Last year we dined at Natalie's for the first time and because of a stellar experience we decided this time to stay at the inn (restaurant is part of Camden Harbour Inn). So... More

We took my Mother out last night, a rainy night in the middle of off season for Camden. We had read the reviews, and though not really being nouvelle cuisine type of folks, decided to make it an occasion. Only a few table were occupied, but the service and the food were the best I've had in a long time,... More
