• Contemporary American • Boothbay Harbor
The White Clover’s warm decor, white table cloths and wall to wall to wall windows granting harbor views, created that atmosphere for a magnificent date night. Nakita was personable, and immediately made you feel that you had her full attention. We started with a specialty cocktails. The Pink vesper was a fun and light. We had lamb chops and beet salad for appetizers. Both were perfectly prepared with the appetizer lamb chops being more than enough to share. The golden beets were such a treat! Mid course of asparagus with feta that was whipped and provided a wonderful pairing. For the main, We had the lobster and halibut succoatash and the lamb shank. Again Chef Kyle outdid himself. Every bite was better than the next. Lastly we shared the key lime tart and then rolled ourselves out of the restaurant! This is not to be missed!

We were there as a party of three. Service was outstanding - friendly, attentive, not overbearing. Drinks were great. Appetizers and entrees were exceptional. Everything was fresh, vibrant, prepared to perfection. Desserts were equally great. We were there for 2.5 hours and could have lingered much longer....was super relaxing and welcoming.

Food was phenomenal, staff was phenomenal, and the overall ambience of the restaurant was romantic and charming Loved the duck breast, the butter sauce in the pasta was so rich and creamy My husband loved the seafood in his pasta dish and said his favorite part was tbe scallops The bread was also super good and I appreciated the recommendation to dip it in all the sauces, I think my favorite thing to dip it in was the blueberry vinaigrette sauce that went with the duck breast, the creamy sauce under the crouquettes was also super tasty with the bread The citrus creme brulee was also super good Thanks for helping us celebrate the first night of our honeymoon with an amazing meal 😋 😍 ❤️
