Ken's Place

We were told about this place by a local. Ken's is a must of you are in the area and looking for authentic local cuisine. We had the lobster roll, clam chowder, fish, and fries. It is of the beaten path a little out of town. The atmosphere is like that of a dive.

First time in Maine and this was our first stop. It was really good. It was a little pricey but it’s Maine and seafood so what can you really expect. Also, price is a personal take but for reference we got a clam roll, crabmeat roll, coleslaw and Diet coke and it came out to $48, do with that as you will. The rolls were really good but personally I didn’t like the coleslaw and I’m a coleslaw girl but to each their own, that’s why I gave the food 4/5 stars. The food came out so quick, about 8 minutes on a Tuesday afternoon. The people were friendly. They also had a raw bar for oysters n such, we didn’t try it but if I went back I would try. Overall, I’d recommend and go back!

Fun little beach joint. Order and pick up at the window. Food was standard. We had lobster roll and cheeseburger, fries and slaw. Refills for two drinks were going to be $8 - so we opted out.

First visit. Fried shrimp dinner portion was very generous and delicious. I would order again hands down. Slaw isn't bad either and it is house made and not over dressed. Could have used a touch less mayo for my taste but not bad and I'd eat it again. What stood out to me as unique They offer both bottled and their own homemade tarter. Get.the.house.made. It's fantastic. I'm a pickle fan and the house made highlights the pickle perfectly. So good. I dug the atmosphere also. D the service is efficient. It's an order at the counter and wait for your number deal. It's not on the water and maybe a little out of the way but I would recommend it based on the amount I enjoyed my meal and the fairness of their prices.

I ordered chowder for the first time it was my first time there it was delicious so much so that I went back and ordered another one. I decided to go back today and order two more and yesterday's chowdah was not watery thin but not super thick it was in between and it had like a goldenish tone to it. The flavor was spot on. Today I ordered the same thing and it's like water milky white, not nearly the same flavor. The ingredients themselves are good the potatoes are cooked beautifully and the seafood is very good It's just the broth is just miles different between yesterday and today I am so disappointed. I had my mouth ready for this. I found out they close on the 26th so I will go back again probably tomorrow and pick it up one more time and see what happens. It would be nice to know w
