If I was a local, this would be a frequent visit. A family operated restaurant that has a comfortable atmosphere. Mom's in the kitchen with her son cooking up great food of ample portions. Daughter worked the front of the house and was knowledgeable and friendly, with just the right amount of sass. If we return to this part of the country, my wife and I will definitly come by for another visit.

We just had a late breakfast at Y-KNOT. A very interesting place. We are visiting from out of state for a few days. Damariscotta is very nice . All the staff at Y-KNOT were very friendly, especially the son, of who I assume is the owner. He was a very nice young man, mature beyond his years.

Very friendly staff . Cute place by water. Happened to stumble on this place driving through and were so glad we stopped. The truckers knot with roastbeef was the best I've ever had. The flavor was out of this world. The coleslaw The fresh roast beef and the sauce they put on it. We would come back just for that. Must try this place out .
