In a culinary landscape brimming with variety, one Sarasota-based food truck has managed to speed ahead by staying true to its roots. The Maine Line, a cherished local favorite, has earned the prestigious 2024 Best of Florida Award. This award, decided by customer votes, highlights businesses that excel in their craft and connect deeply with their community. Recognized by GuideToFlorida.com, The Maine Line’s exceptional dedication to quality and the authentic flavors of New England has been a huge hit with customers seeking a northern taste. 

 

For owners Kurt and Brenda, the journey to this accolade began when they moved to Sarasota in 2018. While they quickly embraced their new surroundings, they found themselves longing for the distinct Maine flavors Kurt grew up with. By late 2019, they decided to bring those beloved tastes to Florida, and The Maine Line was born. Their food truck has since become synonymous with some of the best lobster rolls and seafood delights in the area.

 

The Maine Line’s menu celebrates New England’s culinary traditions, with their lobster rolls leading the charge. Each roll features wild-caught Maine lobster, delicately seasoned, and served in a perfectly toasted bun brought in from the northeast. Whether warm with butter or chilled with mayo, these rolls offer a taste experience that transports diners straight to the Maine coast.

But the offerings don’t stop at lobster rolls. The clam chowder, rich and hearty, brims with tender clams and potatoes, while the lobster bisque provides a luxurious, comforting option for seafood lovers. Every dish on the menu is crafted with the utmost care, ensuring that each bite is a true reflection of New England’s culinary excellence.

 

Winning the 2024 Best of Florida Award marks a significant achievement for The Maine Line. This recognition, powered by the votes of loyal customers, underscores the strong bond the food truck has formed with the Sarasota community and beyond. It’s clear that Kurt and Brenda’s efforts to share a piece of Maine with Florida have resonated deeply with those who have sampled their selections.

 

For Kurt, the satisfaction comes from more than just serving food—it’s about offering an experience. “There’s something special about watching someone take their first bite of a lobster roll and knowing you’ve made their day,” he reflects. “Winning the Best of Florida Award is a huge honor, but the real joy comes from seeing how much people love what we do.”

 

Beyond their daily service, The Maine Line has also become a popular choice for event catering, offering “Lobstah Roll Parties” that bring their signature dishes to special occasions. These events often feature their iconic lobster rolls, homemade coleslaw, and whoopie pies, all made with the same attention to detail and love that characterizes their everyday offerings.

 

As they look ahead, Kurt and Brenda remain committed to the values that have brought them success: an unwavering dedication to quality, a passion for authentic flavors, and a genuine connection with their community. The 2024 Best of Florida Award is a testament to their hard work and the love they’ve poured into The Maine Line.

For those craving a taste of New England in Florida, The Maine Line offers more than just food—it offers a genuine culinary experience, transporting you to the shores of Maine with every bite.
