    Clam scampi
    Amy C.

    Wow, the clam special was amazing tonight! Their homemade pasta made the dish. We had another great meal here. My husband had the salmon and it was very good. As always our waiter Johnny was terrific.

    Pine point grill is a small cozy place not far from Pine point beach. It has a small bar, outdoor seating and a dining room. It's the holidays and they had several seasonal cocktails on the menu. I have a pomegranate margarita and my husband the expresso martini both tasty. We shared the Caesar which had a Parmesan crisp on top, delicious. My husband enjoyed the pizza and I enjoyed the gf bolognese. The waitress, Annie took special care in double checking my food allergies, much appreciated

    Bolognese, a little flat.  I would not order this again.

    A true locals spot that feels so comfortable when you walk in and dine. The service was outstanding, very accommodating, and the food came out quickly. The food was really good, but not great, and it was very affordable. It is a very quaint/ feel-good restaurant.

    Chicken Marsala with in house made porcini mushroom pasta!

    I've been to the Pine point Grill five times in the last year and a half. Service has always been top shelf, food very delicious, and the place is always filled with people enjoying their meals. Tonight I had the Caesar salad, which was fresh and crisp with Parmesan shavings on top, and of course I had the anchovies on top. Emma was my server, and she was amazing

    Cute restaurant in Scarborough with fresh seafood dishes and great pizza. I got the shrimp and scallop scampi and it was very good. My friend got the catch of the day which was the halibut and that was also tasty. The service was great and friendly. It is a smaller restaurant with a small bar and some covered outside seating. Make sure to make a reservation cause it gets busy. They also have a large wine list and a cocktail menu. On the fancier side and a little pricey but worth it!

    Shrimp and pesto pizza!!!

    Stopped in last night on a recommendation from a local, so glad we did...and really glad we made reservations too, don't think we would have been seated without them, but with them we walked right in. We were looking for oysters, and these were amazing, sooooo good. We also tried the seafood chowder, which is chock full of scallops, shrimp, and haddock and, in my view, is comfort food at its best. To round out dinner, my friend and I split the shrimp & pesto pizza. This is really good! The crust on this pizza is thin and crunchy, and exactly as I like it. For dessert, we ate the banana creme Brule. I am normally not a big fan of banana desserts, but the banana flavor was so light, it almost wasn't there and the crust had been torched to perfection; it was very good as well, a lovely way to top off dinner.

    This was the perfect restaurant to start our Portland trip off with. We were seated at a lovely…read moretable in the corner. We had a reservation. The ambiance is very moody and sexy. Perfect for a date night! Our server, Hannah, was great. She suggested an excellent bottle of wine that complimented all of our dishes. Customer service was a solid 10/5! This is a place to definitely add to your Portland dining list! To start, all of the dishes were wonderful portions and could easily be shared between two people. Which I absolutely love because I enjoy trying as many things as I possibly can! Arancini: This was a great starter. Absolutely delicious. I have yet to meet an arancini that I don't love. 5/5. Caesar Salad: A perfect dish that is light and necessary before getting into a heavy entree. The salad was crisp, delicious, very fresh, and a must order. 5/5. Scallop Risotto: This was a large position that had scallops in every bite! It wasn't too heavy, was not too salty, and you could taste the freshness in the ingredients. Dessert is not pictured, but it is worth ordering! The entire dessert menu was excellent!

    I don't typically write a lot of reviews but when I do, it is about an experience that was either…read morereally impressive or hugely disappointing. So here goes... My daughter had been wanting to go to Via Vecchia for a while but couldn't afford it on a college student's income. So we went during my visit. My hopes were high as we walked in--a beautiful glass enclosure at the entrance that was draped with ceiling to floor ivy; an intimate but lively atmosphere; and an offering of creative cocktails...my enthusiasm quickly vanished when our appetizers arrived. We ordered the focaccia, grilled octopus, and Caesar salad. The focaccia was soggy and flavorless. Even the olive oil that accompanied the bread was flavorless. The grilled octopus was another disappointment--there were more cloves of garlic than pieces of octopus. And what little octopus was there, a third of it was charred to black. Thankfully, the Caesar salad was fresh and fairly tasty. Ironically the focaccia croutons were the highlight of the salad. Then the entrees arrived--chicken Marsala and a spicy shrimp pasta in cream sauce (can't remember the name of the dish). My daughter liked the second dish enjoying the slight kick of whatever pepper/spice was used in the recipe. For me, it was just okay. The biggest disappointment however was the chicken Marsala--the gnocchi was overcooked, the entire dish itself was too salty, and the chicken--overcooked in some parts and fairly tender in others--tasted like it came out of a can. Quite honestly, I don't know what all the hype is about. This restaurant is mediocre at best. Perhaps the cocktails numb everyone's tastebuds to the overly salty but otherwise bland dishes. It was not worth the money and I would never go again. If this is the best that Portland has to offer by way of fine Italian dining, I'd say it's time Portland redefined the meaning of "fine".

    Wow. I couldn't even wait to leave the restauraunt to leave a review…read more Food is amazing. Service is amazing. The vibe is also amazing. We got the gnocco fritto, tagliatelle and the halibut. All were amazing. The halibut came on a bed of peas...never in my life have I said "wow, these peas are really good" but I did today.

    My wife, two sons (20 yrs, 18 yrs), and I enjoyed a celebratory dinner at Leeward on the last night…read moreof our July 2026 visit to Portland. With an 8pm reservation for Wednesday, we were seated promptly at 7:50pm. This lovely restaurant has a young, welcoming vibe. It's a mix of high-end dining (Italian) with a somewhat casual atmosphere (blue jeans). If you seek a formal "suit and tie" dining establishment, Leeward is not ideal. Although it is pricey, Leeward has many pluses. First, the service here is outstanding. Second, the wood floors, cork decorated walls, open space, and candles provide a nice ambience. Third, the food is delicious and ideal for sharing appetizers. We ordered several items, including focaccia (the olive oil is wonderful), and the Maine Bluefin Tuna Carpaccio (our favorite!). The Gnocchi Fritto with prosciutto is a must-order appetizer for groups. We then each ordered a pasta dish. I devoured the tagliatelle, which had fava beans. My wife enjoyed the radiatore (with pine nuts). My sons both ordered the rigatoni (but one disliked the heavy Bolognese sauce). Glad we were able to enjoy a celebratory dinner in Portland! Leeward contributes to the strong "foodie" reputation of the city.
