Jonathan's Ogunquit

We were in town on a busy night and it was my birthday. I didn't want some loud, crowded, overpriced place where we had to fight to park. (Which is quite common in Ogunquit). I found this place. It was absolutely perfect. Got a reservation. Parked right out front. The restaurant is beautiful. With gorgeous lighting and gardens all over. Very relaxing, welcoming vibes. The staff was so sweet and even had a birthday card waiting for me at our table. We sat in a beautiful room overlooking a garden. The food was not only delicious, but the presentation was so artfully done. Gary, our server was attentive and friendly. The whole dining experience made for the perfect, relaxed birthday I needed.

We have had dinner here many times since the first year that Jonathan’s opened. I’m impressed that they, including our charming server Edith, handled the pre-theater crowd so efficiently. I had the homemade pasta with mushrooms, and had leftovers. My husband had fish and chips, my sister had seafood plus appetizers. The restaurant is especially convenient from the Meadowmere, just a short walk. We also enjoyed the Judy Collins show, and had assistance by Max when I booked the wrong time for dinner that night. Thanks for good cuisine and great service!

Jonathan’s was our choice for our 20th wedding anniversary and we were not disappointed. The filet mignon was cooked to perfection (they nailed halfway between rare and medium rare!), tender, and tasty. The mashed potatoes could’ve been a meal on their own. So delicious. Our staff, Joel and Gary, were tremendously friendly and cordial. This restaurant holds a placeholder in us for a repeat visit when we’re in Ogunquit.

Our bus tour stopped here for dinner. The meal was delicious. A city's vinaigrette salad with freshly baked rolls started the meal. Stuffed halibut with summer squash and mashed potatoes was excellent. The crispy topped apple crisp finished the meal. Staff were well organized and prompt.

I am a foodie and We've been coming to OGT for years, I WISH we had tried Jonathans sooner. SO GOOD. and such nice people. We had Mushroom papparadelle, chicken piccata, grilled garlic shrimp, martini and lemon cake. Everything was amazing and our waitress was so attentive and sweet. Coming back for a show and dinner soon. REALLY RECOMMEND HIGHLY. Also, side note they have adorable stands at each table for purses, umbrellas or canes etc.
