    Lobstah rolls, the Maine and Connecticut way
    Danielle S.

    I saw this beautiful beacon of a truck as we were driving to the lighthouse, like a glistening crustacean on the hill. I said screw the lighthouse I need a lobstah roll. It was literally the best one I have ever had. Hands down. I've had lobster rolls in Seattle, Oregon, New York, Boston and Halifax. I totally believe its worth the cost of a flight to just come for this mouth watering lobster roll. Maine has my crustacean heart . It was the highlight of my cruise. My only regret is not getting a bigger one.

    What a cute and delicious food truck !! Parking at the Park on a Saturday was no fun. But we did find a spot. Line was about 10 minutes long. Ordering was quick and easy. I had the chipotle lobster roll. Deliciously toasted bread. The roll was juicy and had the best smoky flavor. Potatoes salad was sooo good!!! Definitely had a sweeter finish. Love it. My husband had the wasabi roll. He raved about the bread too. He said it didn't have any wasabi flavor, but he eats wasabi by the spoonfuls. I tried a bite and could definitely tasted the wasabi and the kick. Not my thing but it was really good! There is an option to XL/ add more lobster for $10. I saw a couple that had the xl it was a lot of lobster. I felt we didn't need the extra there was plenty of lobster. But definitely not an overpriced option!

    The best lobster rolls in Maine! We absolutely loved the picnic and chipotle options and even came back to one of their brick and mortar locations a few days later just to have it again. I will say it is overpriced and I wouldn't typically have this on a day to day basis, but it is worth trying especially if you're visiting!

    Rating: 4.5 Came to try their lobster roll for dinner while visiting the portland head light as they have a shop located in the Fort Williams park. It's a small food truck located on the hill near the parking lot at the park. Parkings are available at the park itself. They offer few options for lobster rolls as well as other sandwiches like pulled pork and drinks as well as whoopie pie. We got 6oz maine style and wasabi mayo lobster rolls and blueberry soda and a whoopie pie. Lobster rolls were overflowing with lobster meat and paired with nicely buttered and toasted buns. They were both delicious but i actually liked the wasabi mayo version better personally.Blueberry soda was refreshing which is a brand i've had before from Maine that i like. Whoopie pie was pretty good even though i've never been that into them whenever i had them which is few. Service good and very quick. Our order came out within like 3 minutes. Overall the place was pretty good especially for touristic area like the Fort Williams park. It's be one of better lobster rolls we had in Maine. Price was pretty average for lobster rolls. Great place to stop by if you are in the portland head light/Fort Williams Park.

    WOW. This lobster roll was incredible and with great views with the famous lighthouse. We got the Maine lobster roll 6oz since we were sharing and the clam chowder, also delicious. Quick and very nice service. They even gave treats to our dog.

    These were some FAT lobster rolls! I appreciated that you could try different styles, but we of course went for the classic Maine style. We also grabbed a delish whoopie pie, yummy coleslaw, and of course Maine blueberry root beer! The pretty views certainly helped!

    Fantastic view
    Stacey B.

    Superior lobstah roll with a view to match above the lighthouse. Root beer was really great too. There are some benches and picnic tables in the shade behind the truck near the flag pole.

    Really great lobster rolls at the Cape Elizabeth location. We got both a Maine Style & CT style and both were amazing. Maine had just the right amount of mayo, and the hot butter poured from the tea kettle was such a nice touch on the CT. Bread was well toasted. Great location; too!

    The best lobster roll! Came while visiting Portland Lighthouse. Saw on Feed me Phil. They definitely load the lobster but are pricey.

    The Connecticut
    Mel R.

    Still the best Lobster Roll in Maine. You can't beat the location at Fort Williams Park. I can only speak for the Connecticut as that's my go-to whenever I visit Maine. Highly recommend. Go for the 6 ounce Connecticut currently priced at around $45 with tax. It's a treat.

    CT roll

    WOW i'm so impressed by these lobster rolls. We stopped by this food truck on the way to cape elizabeth and it's a must try!! I'm usually a warm roll fan, but the cold ones were perfect for the hot day. It took ~10 minutes for my roll of come out. Their sodas are also so refreshing to drink with your roll. There's benches to sit outside the truck or you can also sit on the grass nearby!:)

    I don't know how we're going to get a better lobster roll than this! We enjoyed the Connecticut style lobster roll with potato salad and Maine root sodas. The lobster was delicious and the large was perfect to split between two people. The blueberry Maine root soda was yummy and I would definitely get it again! The service was quick and accommodating, especially for a food truck. We enjoyed our lobster roll at a picnic table under a tree and it was amazing! A great introduction to Maine!

    Honestly, there's not a better place than this specific Bite into Maine to get a lobster roll when you're visiting Portland. Especially on a nice day. Grab a hefty buttery roll and a seat in the grass. Dig in and enjoy the views!!

    This location is our original food truck. We have a small takeout - which we call the Commissary- which is at 185 US Route One in Scarborough. It started as our commercial kitchen for our food trucks...and developed into retail and takeout in 2017.

Great food and beautiful views, but the parking situation needs serious improvement. 3/5 stars.

Unfortunately, the service was a major disappointment. The hostess who checked us in was completely unenthusiastic--no smile and very unwelcoming. Our waitress was even more disappointing. Her demeanor came across as snooty and condescending, including correcting the way I ordered. When I asked for an additional butter for my lobster, she responded, "ANOTHER butter?" It was embarrassing and made me feel judged for simply asking. We ordered the whole lobster without the clams, clam chowder, and fish and chips. The lobster was overcooked and chewy. We were only given lobster crackers and a small wooden tool, and could have really used a lobster sheller or additional seafood utensils. After our food was delivered, our waitress never came back to check on us. We needed drink refills and extra napkins, and I eventually had to get up and ask another waitress for napkins myself. The worst part came when we were ready to leave. We waited so long for our check that my husband finally went downstairs and told a gentleman we needed to pay because our waitress hadn't returned. He initially asked us to go back upstairs to pay, but my husband was so frustrated by that point that he refused. The gentleman ultimately had to go upstairs, find our waitress, and bring her downstairs so we could pay. It's unfortunate because some of the food was excellent. The corn and potatoes were very good, the clam chowder was delicious, and the fish and chips were honestly the best we have ever had! This restaurant has so much going for it--the beautiful location, views, atmosphere, and some excellent food--but the service really overshadowed our experience. With more attentive and welcoming service, our impression would have been completely different.

We started with the fish chowder since they didn't have clam chowder. This was probably the only dish that felt average to me, although my husband really enjoyed it. Everything else was a completely different story. The raw seafood was so fresh. We tried the oysters, clams, scallops, and spoons, and every bite tasted clean, fresh, and high quality. The prices were also surprisingly reasonable compared to a lot of other places serving similar seafood. For our entrees, we both went with the hot butter lobster roll. It was classic, simple, and exactly what I expected a good lobster roll to taste like. For the price, I definitely think it was worth it. The restaurant has a casual, laid back ambiance, which fits perfectly with the no frills seafood experience. It's a great spot if you're looking for something relaxed rather than fancy. Service was attentive, friendly, and overall great. If you're in Portland and craving seafood without wanting to spend a fortune, I highly recommend giving this place a try!

Poor communication between servers and the kitchen; between host stand and servers; and across the entire floor.
