The food was amazing. Above average. I honestly loved the haddock chowder and the Crispy Haddock and chips was so yummy. I am gluten free and best meal I have had out in a very long time. Seasoned unbelievable. My husband had the Lobster Mac and cheese and he said it was fantastic. The service was also very good. Explained what was GF and what was not and why. Pleasant and very helpful. Very cute interior. Small but relaxing. read more

Food was fresh and well cooked but some key details got in the way of a better experience. First - let's talk about seasoning. Old Bay is fine but it was sprinkled on everything we ordered - the clam chowder, the French fries, the fish, the sandwich. This made everything taste similar and it covered up the freshness of the seafood. The chowder was nice and thin but the potatoes were not cooked all the way and there was but one clam in the entire bowl. Fish sandwich and fish and chips were well cooked and very fresh. The tartar sauce was full of fresh dill. No cole slaw served with either option was a disappointment. State Line is a welcome addition especially as New England Fishmongers recently closed in Kittery. read more

Stopped by to get a to-go order of lobster and artichoke dip. The owner, Jason, introduced himself to me and we chatted. Super friendly guy! The restaurant is a good size, there is ample parking and it has a cozy atmosphere. Took my order home and I was not disappointed. Nice chunks of lobster mixed with artichoke and some wonderful cheese. The tortilla chips were bite size and perfect - homemade, to boot! Absolutely delicious - I will definitely be going back! read more

Wow. This place is so good. Had the buttered lobster roll and it was outstanding - added a small clam also and they are super. I will be back! Great place and highly recommended. Very friendly service also read more

This was my favorite meal over my ten day tour of the Northeast coast! No doubt, nothing else held a candle to it. We had a fancy pants dinner in Cambridge, we had a Yelp Top 100 pizza in Boston, as well as The Bostonian and Tin Pier in Tea-Town as well. I waited in line for Red's for two hours based on multiple recommendations and nothing we got there was even a portion of how tremendous this place was. There were a couple places in New Hampshire that got pretty close, but overall this was the best. From the funny ass unsweet tea jar to the clam strips, everything was delightful! The clam chowder was good. It was topped with Old Bay seasoning that makes for a different kind of flavor. It's was noticeably thin though, buts still tasty nonetheless. The lobster roll was perfect. Warm, buttery, well seasoned, with a perfectly toasted spit top bun. I am not sure what was up with all of the pickles on the side, but at least they did not taint my roll with their nasty juices. C's clam strips were the best that I have ever had. She orders them a lot and they are always little trash strips out of a frozen food bag. Not here man! These things were freshly sliced clams! The homemade French fries were just the icing on the cake. All in all, superb meal! I wish that I lived closer so I could partake in the lobster roll once a week man. It's sooooo good!! I would bet what you order will be good too! Message me and let me know if you like it! I need a reason to get back!! '25 - 113/111 read more

Do yourself a favor and drive another 1.5 miles north on Route 1 and stop here. This is the quintessential Maine Lobstah Roll, trust me, I am a native. Walk-in, place your order, and hang out. If it is warm enough, try some of the outdoor seating. Wicked Good! read more

Come for the amazing seafood, but don't skip the salads! Warm beet salad was the very best I've ever had. The Stateline Salad was the perfect base for lobster on top. Made with the very best ingredients. Of course the seafood and chowder is top notch. Service and drinks were awesome. Don't drive by this place - you will miss out on something very special. read more

We were running errands in NH and on the way back up, we stopped at State Line Lobster to get a late lunch. Out of all the lobster places, skip this one. The ratings on here must be from out of staters or something. But for the price point, I was pretty disappointed. All in was $142 for two 6oz, two fries, two shakes. The lobster rolls had decent flavor but the meat was realllly chewy (meaning it was overcooked). The fries were not good (I ate 3-4 and threw the rest out). The chocolate milkshake made with custard was decent but the maple milkshake tasted like artificial flavoring and was a complete sugar bomb - too sweet, we threw it out as well. I will say the service was very polite, kind, and positive. With so many good options, not sure I'd do this one again :( read more

Great place for lobster rolls and more! The food was delicious. We had lobster rolls two ways. They're made to order so I asked for less mayo than usual and it was perfect, lots of lobster and the bread very tasty. My husband had it with butter and it was a little too much. Maybe some people like it that way but the bread was soaked. The chips accompany the rolls well. We highly recommend the cheddar corn pie and Brussel sprouts, both were amazing! Also great was the homemade lemonade and sweet tea. The decor is nice and the place is clean and comfortable. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Will definitely stop in again and again. read more

Wow! State Line surpassed all expectations for us! Jason has created the perfect seafood oasis right on Route 1 in Kittery. The menu is the right balance of traditional Maine eats along with curated modern choices that reflect the creativity and culinary depth of the owner. The location is perfect! Pop just outside the "shopping zone" and choose from a mix of yard, deck or inside seating. The vibe is welcoming and warm with Anna, Connor, and Danny all pitching in to create an atmosphere of collaborative service. We couldn't pass up the lobster rolls and chowder, but we'll be back because we have about 20 other things we need to try now! read more

Clean and cute, with a curated menu plus several specials. You almost feel like you're in someone's meticulous kitchen. Straight forward New England fare with a couple of twists. Clam chowder was excellent - thin and flavorful, with plenty of clams. Just the way we like it! That soup showed great passion and care from the kitchen - bravo! We opted for the warm buttered lobster rolls; excellent choice! Full of warm, meaty lobster on a buttery toasted bun. Fried clams were above average as well, and we actually couldn't even finish everything. Highly recommended. read more

Chicken sandwiches were excellent and service was outstanding! Attentive & knowledgeable. Definitely recommend!

My wife and I had an outstanding meal at State Line Lobster! She ordered the lobster roll with chowder, and it was exactly what you want from New England seafood. The split-top hot dog roll was perfectly buttered and grilled to golden perfection, with a generous amount of fresh, sweet lobster meat. The clam chowder was excellent - rich, creamy, and delicious. I went with the hot honey chicken sandwich and was blown away. The chicken was incredibly moist on the inside with a beautifully crispy crust that had just the right amount of heat. This wasn't just spicy for the sake of being spicy - the heat had purpose and complemented the honey perfectly. Both dishes were expertly prepared, and you can tell Jason takes pride in his craft. We'll definitely be back! read more

First stop here - we got an order of fries with aioli (and they asked if we wanted the fries out first - great option!). While waiting for our food - we got to snack on the delicious hand cut fries (think fair fries) and garlic aioli - so yummy. Then we got our orders (which came with chips). Haddock fish sandwich and the small lobster roll. My husband couldn't stop raving about the fish sandwich, the fish was fresh, light and the sandwich was seasoned perfectly. My lobster roll was one of the best I've ever had. I got it hot with butter - lots of perfectly cooked lobster meet, sprinkled with Old Bay seasoning. 2 claws and lots of big chunks of lobster meat. Basically - if you see Bob's clam hut - keep driving - this will be a a mile or so up on the right! Lol read more

Clean and bright, great service and better food. We both had fried clams which were delicious and not over battered. The warm beet salad from the specials menu was always the perfect bite, light, with crunchy pistachio, savory notes and the green earthiness of fresh arugula. Wonderfully simple meal, but not easily made at home. read more

While there are many great lobster rolls available in the area, you can't beat the roll at State Line Lobster. This is a new venture from a beloved local chef and it's as good as I expected. I had the cold lobster roll. It had light mayo, was served on a perfectly grilled brioche hot dog roll and I could still taste the salt water in the lobster. I always use Yelp to find restaurants when I travel, so here is a local recommending this spot for visitors to Kittery. read more
