Whether you’re planning a night out with friends or grabbing dinner before one of our live shows, here are five standout dishes from our dinner menu that guests can’t stop talking about.
🍯 1. Caramelized Salmon
A longtime favorite, our caramelized salmon is seared to perfection after being marinated in our house special of triple sec, orange juice, sugar and dill. It’s a perfect balance of sweet, savory, and satisfying—finished with our lemon beurre blanc and balsamic essence – Light, fresh, and full of flavor, it’s one of our most-requested entrées.
🐟 2. Seafood-Stuffed Haddock
This dish celebrates the best of Maine’s coast. Flaky North Atlantic haddock is topped with a rich shrimp and scallop seafood mix, then baked until golden and tender. Finished with a lemon beurre blanc and served with mashed potato and vegetables, it’s a comforting, can’t-miss classic.
🍝 3. Maine Seafood Pasta
Lobster, clams, and shrimp—this pasta has it all. Tossed in a garlic butter white wine sauce with herbs, tomatoes and fini linguini, it’s a hearty yet elegant choice for seafood lovers. The flavors speak for themselves, and it’s a great way to sample multiple local catches in one dish.
🍋 4. Chicken Piccata
A timeless favorite with a coastal twist. Tender chicken cutlet s sautéed in a lemon caper butter sauce and served with mashed potato and maple glazed carrots. Bright, light, and deeply satisfying, this dish is ideal for guests who enjoy bold flavor without the seafood.
🥩 5. Grilled Rib Eye Steak
While Jonathan’s is known for seafood, our steak lovers aren’t left out. The grilled rib eye is a prime cut, seasoned simply and cooked to your preference. Served with mashed potatoes and vegetables, it’s hearty, flavorful, and often a pleasant surprise for guests expecting only seafood options. Make it a surf and turf and add on a split Maine lobster tail!
