Maine restaurant week 03/03/2026

There’s something really special about hearing from MRW fans who just tried a new participating restaurant for the first time. Thank you for taking a moment to share those positive vibes — it means the world.

When we started Maine Restaurant Week 18 years ago, it was for the restaurant owners and the employees. For the chefs, servers, dishwashers, bartenders, and hosts, the people behind the plate. We wanted to give them a boost during winter.

Over the years, it’s grown into something bigger. It’s become date nights and reunions. Visits to longtime and new favorite spots. New connections, new flavors, new stories. At its heart, it’s still about the people who make hospitality happen.

Thank you for dining out during MRW. For tipping generously. Thank you for sharing your experiences. And thank you for supporting the people behind the plate.

March 1 to March 12 @ www.mainerestaurantweek.com.

What a kickoff to Maine Restaurant Week!

To everyone who purchased Spirit Quest tickets and joined us today, THANK YOU. So many groups of friends reconnecting, first-timers diving in, chefs and bartenders flexing their creativity. It was a wonderfully fun start to MRW. The results truly speak for themselves.

Join us in celebrating today's champions:

🥁 Judge’s Selection: Sur Lie
Bite: Whitefish & shrimp ceviche mini tostada, salad verde, pickled onion, queso fresco.
Sip: Mezcal clarified paper plane
Bright, balanced, and beautifully executed.

🥁 People’s Choice Winner:
Bite: Tuna tartare tostada - corn tortilla, red onion, Sazon aioli, passion fruit pique.
Sip: Mami Chula - vanilla vodka, fresh passion fruit, Passoã, lime, Cava custard foam, parcha jello dot.
Tropical, textured, and layered with contrast, and undeniably crowd-pleasing.

Congratulations to both teams and to every participating restaurant crew that poured hearts and creativity into Spirit Quest.

Maine Restaurant Week is officially off and running. Let’s keep celebrating the people behind the plate. 🍸✨
