This woman has rightfully earned the title of reining champ of fresh seafood purveyors. The…read morerelationships she maintains with local fishermen and women is evident in the quality of her selection. We were staying in South Thomaston for a month and the owner of the VRBO highly recommended her. We stopped by on several occasions and picked up mussels, clams, and halibut (got lobster straight from the dock and oysters from local oyster farmers). The halibut was so supreme that we ordered 50lbs to take home. She had them flash frozen and we are now completely ruined as far as fresh halibut is concerned :) Great selection of wines and local ciders. The only drawback: the parking lot is bitch to get in and out of (tiny). Stayed in Maine for three months, all over the state. Most restaurants were an epic disappointment.. yes you're cooking it yourself and your wallet will know you were there, but this was worth the effort and every cent!

Usually when a place calls them jumbo it's laughable but there was no false advertising here. What's even better is that they are the product of a father / daughter duo and I love to support local and family businesses. This place is nondescript but a must eat if you're in the area. No better pricing or quality.

What a convenient 24/7 source of raw oysters. Just park, open the fridge, and drop your cash in the…read moreblack box. Unfortunately, the oysters were extremely small and rightfully referred to as cocktail oysters. Because they were so small, it was hard to gauge their flavor and barely worth the time to shuck. They were clearly fresh and had a nice briny smell. I will check back later in the season to see if larger ones are available. I am hoping for the best next visit. Could one day perhaps be one of the wonders of Maine.

We really enjoyed the lobster roll kit sold on Gold Belly. Here In California, we rarely get fresh…read moretasting lobster. Usually the freezing and shipping destroys the fresh taste. The lobster roll kit arrived well-packed, very cold, not frozen (we appreciated that the rolls were not refrigerated) tasted sweet and fresh, had ample perfectly cooked lobster, and a great mix of tails, claws, and knuckles. It tasted as though it had just come off the boat. and made a truly memorable meal. There is no wonder it has been rated as the best lobster roll in Maine. It was worth every penny.

Again it's unclear if I'm rating their preparation or the local cuisine…read more As others have noted, it's an idyllic setting at the end of the road on a little island, with boats in the harbor. Very busy with tourists. Anyhow: grilled clams were very tasty and cooked perfectly--bit salty for my taste, but to be fair, they do come from saltwater. I found the steamed whole lobster to be ok but not spectacular. The nutcracker provided wasn't the best such tool I've had, but I won't hold that against them--I just didn't think the lobster compared in sweetness and juiciness to some of the better crabs I've had in Maryland. Whether that's their preparation, or lobster generally, who's to say!

It was one of our last days in Maine and I was on a mission to find the best lobster roll I could…read morefind. When I read the Yelp and Google reviews for this place, I knew I had found my spot. It's a small, no frills spot. The owner is super helpful and friendly. He'll proudly tell you why his lobster roll is the best. He uses claw meat which makes it sweeter. The pieces are very small, so it is loaded with meat. The popular rolls you see use giant chunks of meat, but with all of the space between them, this one actually has more meat even if it doesn't seem like it. And lastly, he uses both butter and mayo on it. I don't think I'll ever find a better lobster roll for the rest of my life. My husband claimed lobster rolls were overrated until we had this one. My only regret is that this was our second stop for food, so my husband and I shared one. To top it all off, this was the cheapest meal we had in Maine. Most places will charge you at least $35-40 for anything that has lobster in it. I think we paid $20-$25 for our roll. Whenever I'm in Maine, I will come here for another lobster roll, no matter how far out of my way I have to go.
