His response absolutely. when it came it was soft & pliable the opposite of what I asked for. sent it back again asking for it crispy. 2nd time same as before. Yes I'm aggravated so away goes the taco & I order the happy hour poutine. spectacular dish enough for 4 people to share. the bill comes & I see they charged me $16.00 for the poutine. It should have been $8.00. I got it corrected- keep your eyes on the invoices for the future. BTW my mocktail margarita was awesome as was my wife's burger. $2.00 add on for cheese give me a break. I'll probably be back but nothing urgent to make me rush back.

Food was great but Gabby our server is what made me write this review!…read more She was so kind and attentive, she was very patient helping me try some of their beer before I decided on a margarita... I didn't eat much of my sandwich as the drink and salad filled me. She was genuinely concerned lol and sat next to me with a look of genuine concern "Is everything okay, tell me, I'll fix it for you" I've never had a server take my wants and needs so personal and it was Awesome! My salad came out with the wrong dressing and I wouldn't let her take it back. I was fine with what they gave me instead. When we left, she gave me a salad to go with the dressing i had asked for! She went above and beyond and makes you feel like you are her only customer! Give that Girl a Raise LOL

Our bartender was knowledgeable, friendly, and chatty. That cruising the menu we settled on adult beverages,. Their IPA for me and my wife ordered their raspberry sour. I had a lot of hope for their IPA but unfortunately it was fairly pedestrian. That said, my lobster roll made up for it all! I decided on going for the max size. Though a little pricey, if you're hungry it's the way to go. With that I enjoyed a decent side Caesar salad. My wife ordered their French dip with tater tots. The sandwich smelled and tasted delicious. Unfortunately the tots could've used a few more minutes in the fryer. All said it was a good meal. Will be back? We'll see.

The soup came out hot with plenty of potatoes. There's is GF which is a plus for me. Disappointed because it didn't seem creamy enough, like there was no dairy at all. Plus, they put thyme in it. If you know about clam chowder, NE style does not have thyme in it, but Manhattan style does (the red one). South Portland's is better. Sorry! The Greek w/ chicken was excellent. Plenty of chicken, olives, etc. Just enough dressing. A large portion. Sea Dogs overall is ALWAYS a great option. Great staff, good food, lots of choices and fresh. The place is always clean. I typically eat at the bar since I'm by myself.

My first time visiting this place, I cannot believe it took so long for me to find out about it…read more In its classic 'roadside seafood joint' styling, it doesn't stand out in the kitschy, giant lighthouse kind-of-way. This place stands out for its FOOD. Four of us went, I got the fried clams. Not clam strips, but the juicy, delectable, flavorful whole clams that include the belly (and probably other untoward clammy organs). I asked two ladies in line behind me if I wanted the regular batter or the crumb batter; they convinced me that the crumb was the right choice. They were absolutely right. If I remembered their names I would have given them both a shout out for setting me on the right path. The portion size was more than I could eat even though I did not want to stop enjoying those fabulous bivalves. If evolution had spent another billion years on these creatures it could not be possible to make them better. Perhaps proof of divine creation comes not from the written texts but from the hand of a being so beyond understanding that it vexes mankind accordingly so. Whether you call them Ipswich or Nannynose, Hen Clams or Poquauhocks, make your way to Ken's and find out just how much the human touch can bring to the humble clam. Bar is great, had their Bloody Mary which went perfectly with the clams. The servers are terrific. Tip them generously so that they may remember you as well as you will remember those glorious clams.

We have been loyal customers for as long as I can remember - at least 2 decades...maybe?…read more We are loyal because the food is consistently great, fresh and well portioned for the price you pay. The owners seemed to truly care about the customer and the customer experience - which you can tell by how the employees treat customers. It's a great culture. There is always team members cleaning and organizing the dining area. Wiping tables, filling ketchup, sweeping floors and emptying garbage bins. I have never seen them just standing around chatting. They are always moving and interact nicely with patrons, especially the elderly. They are very sweet and kind. FOOD! Our favorites....clams - strips or whole - in crumb (the more crunchy batter). Haddock - as a dinner or as a sandwich - fresh delicious fried haddock!! Grilled is good too. The clam cake is hefty and delicious. My family loves Lobster from here - mostly the lobster roll. Scallops are great! We get them once in a while when we want to spend a little more money. Once of these days I will try the hamburger, or chicken..not sure when, but some day. LOL There is a little bar area in the corner - they are a full serve bar. Usually packed with locals. The outdoor patio area is nice, especially during the spring and fall. You can drink within the roped off patio area. Parking lot is always a bit nutty. The spaces are smaller compared to how large vehicles are now, so almost every other vehicle seems to be parked on or over the lines. We have only driven away once after not being able to find parking. We love Ken's Seafood!

The food was so flavorful, quickly prepared, and very creative with its presentation. Local sourcing and very high-quality ingredients. The service was on point, the ambiance was warm and relaxing, and the value was more than reasonable. The same meal in Portland would have easily cost forty percent more. I wish I had taken pictures of the meal, but I was tired and hungry and just forgot. My burger and fries were spot on. The fries stayed crispy from the beginning to the end. The burger meat was fresh and very tasty. The dessert was next level, and I did get a picture before eating it, lol. Whether you stay at the hotel or not, City Farmhouse is always an excellent choice.

Several more visits since my last review…read more Some things haven't changed: -- The beers are still great. Swish, Here's to Feeling Good All the Time, Nothing Gold, and Reciprocal are a formidable foursome. At any given time, you can usually get at least two, more often three, sometimes all four. -- You'd be hard pressed (pun intended) to find a better smashburger in Portland, but I'd also put it up against any regularly-offered burger I've had in Portland--smashed or otherwise. I love everything about it, from the high caliber of the beef to the fresh pillowy milk bun to the exhilaratingly strong cure of the bacon to the razor-thin cutting of the vegetables to the execution that gets even a smashburger burger juicy. -- I'm still not crazy about the wings. They have a frozen dinner feel to them. A few things, though, have changed: -- Full service now instead of having to order everything at the bar. That's a plus. -- The place is much more crowded-- including screaming tykes-- on the weekends. Not a plus, but can't fault a place for its own popularity. -- The fries are now the industrial strength coated kind. A big minus and a sad drop off from prior greatness, but better that than from an item off the main cast. -- You can now order beer cans to go from the table rather than having to get in line. A nice convenience. A few things to know: -- It's a surprisingly good option for vegetarians and pescatarians. The veggie burger and the grilled fish sandwich are both much more than solid. -- There's outdoor seating in front of the building and also to the right. -- The bar room to the right of the entrance is adults only, so if those screaming tykes get on your nerves, this is the place to be. -- You can still order beer at the bar if that's your preference over table service. Still a favorite, and the combo of beer, food, and space is tough to beat (Mast Landing and Maine Beer in Freeport are also somewhere in that echelon).

Bissell Brothers still is deserving of the high acclaim and5 star review. One of their most popular…read moreDouble IPAs, called Swish had a new special Triple IPA version brewed called Super Swish. This beer release brought my wife and I for our visit today. As an IPA fan I enjoyed this new version very much for its hop saturated citrusy forward taste that drank quite smooth for the 9.5%. At this point now Bissell is broken into two separate parts. The first will be the space welcoming to families and is more of their restaurant style area. Appeared to be a popular area and does offer reservations. My preferred area is the Bissell Garden as they call it. Those entering need to be of drinking age and have more lounge vibes where you order at the bar. It still offers full kitchen menu so is perfect. Particularly my favorite is snagging bar stools to grab some beers and food. I had to try out the Super Swish while my wife grabbed their red ale named Turnpike. Then food wise we split their kitchen special Classic Poutine. Some of the best classic kept simple poutine I have had. The perfect comfort food for yet another cold weather day in Maine. Have been impressed by all the food from Bissell. Truly the only negative still stands being the fact it's on Thompson's Point and required paid parking (not Bissell Brothers call but still). One of the most popular Maine breweries for a reason especially in the IPA game. Give all their other style of beers a try too though, top notch brewery!
