The Landmark Restaurant

Earlier this summer we spent some time in Old Orchard Beach Maine. We always like to go here early in the season or late August to beat all of the crowds. Maine has some incredible restaurants and let me tell you this is one of them. This has become my new favorite place to eat in the Old Orchard Beach area. We went with our friends and neighbors, Rosalie and Randy. They were the ones that originally shared this Maine gem with us.

We got there not long after they opened so we were seated at a quiet window seat. The menu is filled with local seafood and steak and other non seafood for the non seafood loving people. Our waitress brought over some warm, fresh from the oven, bread and butter. Perfect start!

Rosalie had one of the specials of the night. A Lobster pie…look at that lobster! If you like lobster this is the dish for you. Rich, buttery crumb topping, with roasted vegetables on the side. Rosalie really enjoyed this, In fact, we all cleaned our plates!

Rosalie’s husband, Randy, the non-seafood-loving one in the group, had the black Angus sirloin served with a rich Au Jus sauce along with vegetables and mashed potatoes on the side. (27.95). Those are some nice looking grill marks right there and cooked to Randy’s liking.

Jim had the fresh Haddock Baked Florentine stuffed with spinach, red onion, and gruyere cheese, mashed potatoes and vegetables on the side. Jim loved this flavorful dish. (22.95)

I ordered the most delicious dish I have had in a long time. I had the Parmesan Scallops. Baked sea scallops with Parmesan crumb topping finished with a cream sauce. (27.95) I loved this dish. The scallops were sweet with a little crisp topping and oh! that cream sauce! This is my all time favorite scallops dish. If I could have licked that plate, you bet I would have. Needless to say, none of us took any leftovers back with us.

The Landmark is located at 28 East Grand Ave. in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. The Landmark opens daily at 5pm. For more information be sure to check their website and Facebook.
