About the Author
Devin Finigan grew up in the Green Mountains of Vermont, learning her love of cooking from her dad who was a chef. On a chance visit to Deer Isle, she decided to give up her dream of becoming an Olympic snowboarder and make her life on the picturesque Maine island.
Chef Finigan founded her restaurant Aragosta in 2013, in a small oceanfront space in Stonington. Over the following six years, she developed her unique vision for modern fine dining with a pronounced Maine accent, honing her skills as stagiaire in the celebrated kitchens of The French Laundry, Per Se, Blue Hill at Stone Barns, and Single Thread.
In 2019, she relocated her restaurant and two daughters to a stunning 22-acre forest overlooking Goose Cove. In 2024 Food & Wine recognized Aragosta as the #2 Restaurant on their Tastemakers of America List, and in 2025 Food & Wine named Aragosta the #2 Hotel for food and drink.
