STEPH JUDGEMENT: Great place for New England classics…read more The hubby and I stopped in to get some food to go. Located at end of a pier, it was a pleasant bright, light space overlooking the ocean. We were pleasantly surprised to see some veggie options, and the hubby got the kelp burger, which he enjoyed. I got the 4 oz lobster roll (plenty big for me), which came with potato chips and a pickle. It was excellent, with just the right amount of butter on the roll and mayo in the lobster. Also great friendly service. We shared a cider at the bar while waiting for our order and had a nice time chatting with the bartender. Highly recommend.

Then order large Caesar salad and fish and chips... to be split and shared. Both came out at same time... shame on me for not telling the waitress how to bring out. Both arrived at the same time. Caesar salad the lettuce was warm and wilted, croutons burned. Fried fish, the fries were tough and cold! The fish had the same breading as the calamari! The fish was warm, not much taste. Funny, at end of meal... where the waitress clearly sees we did not eat our food... she asks how the drinks were (remember we ordered beer and wine) The manager shows up, we told him we did not want comped food. Did tell him all of the above.... His bigger concern was "was the fish cooked correctly" The table behind us got the clams comped... no idea why! We will not recommend nor will we ever return!

I guess I learned that I don't like mayo with the roll because it overpowers the flavor and this place specializes in sauces so of course I tried their mayo. I'm sure the classic butter on a roll would be just right. Potato salad was great though! And I love that they have a vast n/a drink options. A little something for everyone. The easy QR code ordering allows you to order on your own so you don't have to split the bill later. Much appreciated for those who come in a big group. Truly worth trying!

For my selections, I chose the sweet red pepper mayo, charred pineapple mayo, mango habanero mayo, drawn butter, jalapeno mayo, and garlic mayo. I also appreciated the option of the 2oz flight sandwich sizes and chose warmed rolls for all of them. Furthermore, the waiters and host were warm and friendly. They were incredibly helpful in guiding us as tourists toward items they knew we would enjoy. Very casual and family friendly space. I will absolutely be recommending Highroller Lobster Co. to others. Thank you for the great service and delicious food.

We started with burrata, a bluefish pate, and mussels for apps, and then moved right into: Bluefish tuna Lobster Fra Diavlo for two, and Roasted Branzino (which was FANTASTIC) After that, we still pursued dessert and ordered a pecan pie with in-house made ice cream and one of the most delicious rice puddings I have ever had. Overall, it was a GREAT night. 100% recommend.

We liked it more than Scales which I think might be a less popular opinion. The ambiance was very rustic and cozy. It did feel a little cramped and the first table they sat us at was in the middle of a bunch of other tables and I really don't think it would be a nice table for anyone. Thankfully they moved us to a corner/booth which was very nice of them. Even in the corner it was still a little cramped which is my reason for not giving it 5 stars. The pasta dish with lobster in a red sauce was divine. Full of other seafood in addition to the lobster like mussels and clams too. It was definitely messy but the flavor was fantastic. Tons of garlic which we love. The octopus appetizer was also delicious. Very charred which normally I wouldn't like but it worked very well with this dish. We also got hummus which was a special appetizer. It was ok- not very memorable. The desserts didn't appeal to us (maybe we were just too full). Would love to return if we find ourselves back in Portland!

Overall a 5/5 experience at Dry Dock!…read more Great service and great people at Dry Dock, they were very kind. It's busy in there at any given point because it's a hot spot on Commercial St., but it's worth the stop! Double Decker was perfect for my group of 5 to try Portland's seafood. A recurring theme with their seafood would be how fresh everything tasted. The lobster was juicy and sweet, definitely enough to share with another person. The blackened fish was cooked well. Fish and chips, a great staple. Not pictured are the apps we got: fried cod cheeks and clam chowder, both great starters for the group! Would come to Dry Dock again, enjoyed our time there!

Based on the reviews, we decided to give it a try, and it definitely lived up to the hype. It's a small, charming place that combines a seafood market with a restaurant and bar. We were seated right away, and the service was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. The lobster roll was outstanding, packed with tender, fresh lobster claw meat and lightly dressed with just the right amount of mayonnaise. They also offered a great selection of fresh oysters and other seafood, all of which looked excellent. If you're in the area and craving fresh seafood, I would definitely recommend stopping by.

(BTW) I didn't catch her name but the young lady who took my order was a spot on employee!! The only bad news was, I asked for a taste of the lobster bisque & sorry to say I didn't like it at all. Will I be back- damn sure about that. I'm taking one of my flights home with me to eat it later. Damn I'm in heaven. I hope Bite into Maine will add lobster ghee to their menu.

It gave the entire evening that authentic, working-harbor Portland feel while still feeling polished and comfortable. We started with a crisp, refreshing local Belgian wheat beer that was light, slightly citrusy, and an ideal match for the seafood-heavy meal ahead. For appetizers, the grilled octopus was excellent -- tender with a proper char, beautifully seasoned, and full of flavor. It came with pommes dauphine, pine nut and espelette vinaigrette, and garlic whip. There was a light touch of oiliness toward the end of the plate (typical with generous finishing oil), but it didn't detract from what was otherwise a very well-executed dish. The dozen raw oysters were exceptional. All three varieties were local Maine and served ice-cold: Fare Well (Newcastle), Nautical Sisters (Yarmouth), and Weskeag (South Thomaston). I had them with just the mignonette and was rewarded with clean, sweet, briny flavor. These were some of the freshest, highest-quality oysters I've had in Portland. The main courses were the real stars. The Stuffed Lobster Frites was outstanding. The lobster was sweet and perfectly cooked, the claws were pre-cracked for easy access, and the tail was cleanly split with a buttery, herby breadcrumb crust that added excellent crunch and texture. It was accompanied by scallop mousseline and dijonnaise. This is a premium dish, but the quality and generous portion made it feel worth it. Equally impressive was the seared scallops, served in a cast-iron skillet. The scallops had a beautiful golden crust and were cooked exactly right -- sweet and tender. They were paired with crisp corn, applewood-smoked bacon, kale, and roasted peppers in a light, well-balanced cream sauce. This dish avoided the common issue of being overly salty. Every bite offered a nice variety of textures and flavors, and the cast-iron kept everything hot throughout the course. It was precise, thoughtful cooking. We finished with the Chocolate Silk Pie*, which was rich, silky, and deeply satisfying with lovely hazelnut undertones and a crunchy chocolate-hazelnut topping. The presentation was beautiful, and it made for a perfect ending. Service was attentive and professional without feeling rushed or intrusive. The pacing between courses was ideal. Bottom line: If you're serious about high-quality Maine seafood, Scales is delivering at a very high level right now. The ingredients are pristine, the execution is precise, and the waterfront setting (especially from a window seat) adds real character. This was easily one of the best meals I've had in Portland. I'll definitely be back. Highly recommended for seafood enthusiasts, special occasions, or anyone who appreciates a restaurant that respects its local ingredients.
