Is there really a bigger face for restaurants, diners, drive-ins, and dives than Guy Fieri? For nearly two decades, he’s been a food icon, bringing bold flavors and a big personality to every stop along the way.

So, with that in mind, how do we know which restaurants are Guy Fieri-approved? Where are we getting this information?

LoveFood’s report highlights the best Guy Fieri–approved restaurants in every state, focusing on spots featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. Updated for 2025, their selections are based on the show’s featured eateries, user reviews, awards, and first-hand experiences, with regular updates to keep the list fresh.

Alright, now that we’ve covered that, which restaurants in Maine have made it onto this exclusive list of Guy Fieri-approved establishments across the country?

According to LoveFood and their report highlighting ‘Guy Fieri–approved restaurants in every US state, ranked,’ two spots in Maine earned a place on the list.

The first restaurant in Maine to be featured on Guy Fieri's approved list of restaurants is the Maine Diner in Wells.

The Maine Diner and Gift Shop in Wells, while its name might sound simple and unassuming, is anything but bland or generic. LoveFood had this to say about this standout selection:

Complete with an inviting blue and white exterior, Maine Diner is a family-owned spot loved for its homey atmosphere and friendly staff. The team uses recipes handed down by generations. Fieri was blown away by the restaurant’s signature dish: the Lobster Pie.

The second restaurant in the Pine Tree State to make the list of Guy Fieri-approved restaurants is Becky’s Diner in Portland.

Becky’s Diner in Portland is a classic spot that’s been praised with countless superlatives when it comes to Maine’s restaurant scene. LoveFood shared this about the Maine staple:

Diners may regularly feature on Fieri’s hit show, but none are quite as legendary – or as celebrated – as Becky’s Diner in Portland, Maine. As well as featuring on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, the joint has appeared on a handful of other Food Network shows, earning it fans all over the world.

So, there you have it—Maine Diner and Becky’s Diner are the two restaurants officially approved by the one-and-only Guy Fieri in 2025!
