What a wonderful experience at Docks! It was the first time in years that I've been able to enjoy…read morefried fish at a restaurant, and having a gluten-free option was SO appreciated. The haddock was absolutely delicious--the light, delicate breading practically melts in your mouth. Our waiter, Morgan, was outstanding--attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. We also really enjoyed meeting Chris and hearing the story behind the restaurant. It's clear there is a lot of heart behind Docks. Great food, wonderful drinks, and exceptional service. We'll definitely be back when I'm in Maine again!

This is kind of a hole in the wall place but don't let that distract you. The food is AMAZING! The…read morestaff were friendly and prompt. There were 2 of us and our first time eating here. We decided to try a variety of items, but we knew first and foremost we were going to order the lobster rolls with butter. Oh my goodness, they were heavenly delicious! I couldn't help but to moan a little while eating it. We also ordered a 6oz plate of the small fried shrimp. Yum!!! Of course we HAD to try the crab cakes, but ordered the sauce and Cajun salsa on the side. The Cajun salsa was devine, especially on the crab cakes. I was hesitant about trying the crab cakes because I don't like mayo, but there was no mayo taste in these. I DEFINITELY recommend Docks and would eat here weekly if I lived locally.

I've passed Merrill's many times on my walk to veranda and every time I've said I would stop by…read moresome day. Well, after a year and a half I finally did and what a treat! Walking in smells like you walked onto the sea floor of the ocean and that's a wonderful feeling! They have a small, manageable selection of fresh fish. The day we went they had scallop, salmon, lobster, haddock, and some crab cakes and other seafare. They have a small pantry of seasonings, planks, and other seafood cooking items. By the entrance is a freezer of shrimp and other. We got standard fare: scallops and salmon. They had scallop chunks which are cheaper than regular scallops because they're the discards that have been cut up from the descalloping process, but they look, smell, and taste great. The man in charge was so attentive and really seemed knowledgeable about everything. Fun fact, they've been here since 1947! So in 2020, they've been here for over 73 years! Their Facebook is chock full of helpful seafood facts and it's just a really well managed family business. I'm so glad I stopped by and wish I had sooner.

Tried PJ Merrill a couple weeks ago for their Maine scallops and knew I had to come back to try…read moreother fresh seafood options. Interior was clean and had a good selection of seafood. The individual who was working the counter was so kinda and more than happy to answer all my questions. Showed me the lobster options they had available any pulling them out of the water and weighing each one for me. Lobster was delicious steamed and made into a lobster roll

We go here every time we're in Portland. Plenty of free parking out back. They've got the best…read moreprices on mushrooms anywhere in the city. The produce can be hit or miss, but the mushrooms are always prime. Same with the fresh herbs. Massive lengths of garlic chives, absolute trees worth of mint, and lots of other weird and delicious leaves of various sorts. I was able to find plenty of pre-chopped frozen lemongrass, which I now will only buy frozen, becuase it's so fresh tasting and not as much of a pain to prepare. I made a soup where I used a full half cup of the stuff, which is never something I'd have done if I had to chop that by hand! Half the items don't have a price sticker or a sign that states the prices, but when you get to the register, they're happy to do a price check for you so that you know what you're paying. I'm assuming that with such a small physical space, and that variety of stuff, it's hard to constantly keep on top of prices on the shelves. If the cashier were annoyed at being asked the price, I'd not shop here, but I've always had them be happy to tell us the prices with no issues. Seriously though the selection is insane. There's stuff that I'd never imagine I can find easily in New England, but it's right there on the shelf. The noodle variety is great, with plenty of gluten free noodles for those who need it. Plenty of dried mushrooms and tea too!

Fantastic grocery with a wide selection of products. Love the ramen aisle and the snacks aisle in…read moreparticular, as well as the Chinese sausages and the kimchi. Only complaint is that like half the items don't have price tags and you either have to guess or ask.
