Methodology
Two independent rankings, no composite score.
By new locations: net new locations opened across Maine in the trailing 90 days. Each row is one restaurant that opened at least one new location in the window.
By revenue and review growth: net new reviews picked up across web and social channels in the same window. Reviews are the cleanest available proxy for restaurant revenue, which is hard to source publicly.
Restaurants records draw from 12+ public and private data sources, refresh weekly, and are independently verified against at least two of them. Owner contacts come from a separate 20+ source scan and refresh monthly. For a national view of restaurant industry data, browse every metro and state in the directory.
