Red Sky is an exceptional restaurant. The kind of fine dining you expect to find in a metro setting with high quality service and elegant atmosphere. They carry a good selection of wines and beers as well. The menu is pricey, and sometimes the approach to cuisine may come across as a bit pretentious - my Asian salad had barely... more

The meal here was phenomenal, food, service, everything was perfect. Expensive but not horribly so (we're from NYC area). We were here in early Sept. and most places didn't have enough staff but Red Sky had staff overflowing. Definitely worth the drive if staying in Bar Harbor but we just walked from B&Bs. more

Fresh is the word here. Only the best and freshest local produce, seafood and meats are served here by a well trained and attentative staff. The roasted duck and the special squash soup were "homeruns" as was the wine list. Proprietor James Lindquist and Cedril Damon made our dining experience an occasion to remember both in service and in the... more

Read the positve reviews on Chowhound, but didn't want to drive from Bar Harbor. We're glad we did. Best meal on our vacation. Great food, service, bread, drinks. Well worth the drive from Bar Harbor. Highly recommended!! more

We reserved a table way in advance for a Saturday night in August based on largely high recommendations on this website, for a special birthday celebration while vacationing at a nearby hotel. The place was fairly simply decorated but with a sense of... more

Nice ambience. Fresh, local, organic produce - and you can taste the freshness. Huge portions and reasonable prices. more

We visited Southwest Harbor in July 2005 and ate at Red Sky for the first time. It was delicious. I had scallops and they were prepared just right -- seared as I like them but not overcooked or undercooked. We visited SWH again in July 2008 and couldn't wait to go back. But we were disappointed in Red Sky this... more

We weren't expecting much from anywhere in Southwest Harbor - but Red Sky was fabulous! Most (if not all) of the produce is incredibly fresh and comes from the island - and the waitstaff could answer all the questions we had about it. The wine list was extensive, reasonable, and had some more unique wines that were very good, with... more

My wife and I were staying at a local bed and breakfast and they recommended Red Sky as a good choice for dinner. We thought since it was our last night in the area, why not? What a pleasant surprise. Although we arrived at what we thought was a reasonable hour, about 6:45 or so, the restaurant was mostly empty,... more
