Native ingredients honor Maine’s indelible heritage. By partnering with local fisherman, farmers, distillers, and ranchers, The Tiller Restaurant combines the region’s distinctive culture and tradition with culinary innovation and sustainable practices for authentic and nuanced dining experiences.

Upscale contemporary design meets with charming rustic elements, combined with a bright and inviting dining destination surrounded by ocean views suspended over the cliffs. Seasonal breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus are prepared with farm-fresh local produce, line-caught fish, hand cut meats, and homemade recipes passed down from generation to generation.

*Please note:

We do not accept parties larger than 8 in our main dining room (nor larger than 16 in our private dining rooms).

The Tiller winter hours are Thursday 5pm through Monday at 12pm, outside of December 18th through January 4th, in which we are open for all services.

Lauren provided truly excellent service. The food was good. I had a lobster cobb salad. My friend had a lobster tostada. The views were spectacular. The inside of the restaurant was also beautiful. Good job chef!

About the restaurant

Havana has been committed to serving local and organic meats, produce and seafood since it opened 25 years ago. All of our meats are “naturally raised” meaning no steroids, antibiotics or hormones and “humanely raised” meaning room to roam, proper shelter and gentle handling. We make every effort to buy only sustainably harvested seafood, primarily from the Gulf of Maine. We have consistently searched out New England farmers and fisherfolk to purchase product that is not only great tasting but great for the environment and local economy as well.

From the Fennel Salad to the Ragu, vino and expertly crafted Old Fashioned, our anniversary dinner at Pomelia was off the chain. Chelsea and her team don't miss a trick! The beauty of this place is that they make it seem so effortless. I can assure you, nothing happens here by accident. They never stop reaching and it shows!

We came for our one year anniversary, the food and service were both excellent. The restaurant is very clean and the ambiance was relaxing. Highly recommend the bone marrow and steak au poivre. A slice of France in Maine. We will be back!
