The crab cakes were light and airy and packed with flavor from the red peppers and onions in them. I loved the lobsta sandwich, clam chowder, and crab cakes! The sandwich had a nice thin dressing that highlighted the taste of the lobster and did not take away from it. We loved this place so much we returned later for a late lunch. The effort they put into the dishes is clearly seen and it is evident that the food is all made from scratch. Chaps Coffee Co (Spokane, WA), Good Dog Bar and Restaurant (Philadelphia, PA), Porthole Restaurant (Portland, ME) This trip Guy's crossing the country for. My fiance's meal had homemade sausages (PACKED with flavor) and homefries with sweet potato in them. There hasnt been any place in the US that I have been that even comes close to the flavor packed into this side dish. I order Hash every single place we go because it is my favorite breakfast side. It was by far the best breakfast joint we had ever been. They might be 'I'm gonna in the Porthole restaurant, having a burger and. it was completely and utterly 100% worth the wait. Although, in Portland those days, there was often another presence: the tourists. I have to admit that I got a little frustrated when we got to 1 hr past ordering and we still hadn't received our food yet. I ordered huevos rancheros with a side of hash and my fiance ordered the fishermans breakfast. When we entered the "dive" we were hit with this amazing character of the place. We went there this weekend after visiting this site and looking for places close to old orchard beach. Many of Portland’s dining hot spots require reservations in the summer, especially in July and August. On the way up.or down? Management? Oh, btw, my poor service rating is not for the server: she did all she could under the circumstances.This restaurant is amazing!!

C'mon, at least a few of those cheap fake candles if you don't have ambient lighting (one of 4 spotlights on the wall was on)! Does management take any time to look around? What about the 20 foot section of rough plywood panels at the back, instead of railing? Even if that's temporary, could you put some flower pots in front of them? Maybe a coat of dark paint so it doesn't feel like you're eating at Home Depot? On the plus side, the mussels were solid, a generous portion with a tasty broth including garlic and beans.

It's Portland, ME, for cripes sake the chowder should be awesome even at CVS (if they had it!). OK, maybe they didn't mix it up when they served my family of 4, but that would be a problem too.
