Great menu in an out of the way neighborhood.
Not a great walking around place at night, but there is off-street parking and the food is beautifully prepared.
I've never been disappointed.

Homemade German cuisine a little off the beaten path. The owners Brian and Steffie are either preparing or serving your delicious food. The onion tart is my all time go to.
Cozy and informal. Now open for indoor dining.

Reny's... Their slogan is " A Maine Adventure"
I don't know about that, but if you forgot something, or need a tee-shirt, sweater, sun-block art supplies or even some groceries, they just might have it. Right on Congress Street.

It’s a surplus and salvage, they often get merch from high end stores going out of business. You have to hunt, but you never know what will be there. There are several Marden's stores throughout the state. Their slogan , "I should have bought it when I saw it, at Marden's".
