    Lobster rolls
    Brianna T.

    These were some FAT lobster rolls! I appreciated that you could try different styles, but we of course went for the classic Maine style. We also grabbed a delish whoopie pie, yummy coleslaw, and of course Maine blueberry root beer! The pretty views certainly helped!

    Fantastic view

    Superior lobstah roll with a view to match above the lighthouse. Root beer was really great too. There are some benches and picnic tables in the shade behind the truck near the flag pole.

    Really great lobster rolls at the Cape Elizabeth location. We got both a Maine Style & CT style and both were amazing. Maine had just the right amount of mayo, and the hot butter poured from the tea kettle was such a nice touch on the CT. Bread was well toasted. Great location; too!

    The best lobster roll! Came while visiting Portland Lighthouse. Saw on Feed me Phil. They definitely load the lobster but are pricey.

    WOW i'm so impressed by these lobster rolls. We stopped by this food truck on the way to cape elizabeth and it's a must try!! I'm usually a warm roll fan, but the cold ones were perfect for the hot day. It took ~10 minutes for my roll of come out. Their sodas are also so refreshing to drink with your roll. There's benches to sit outside the truck or you can also sit on the grass nearby!:)

    Still the best Lobster Roll in Maine. You can't beat the location at Fort Williams Park. I can only speak for the Connecticut as that's my go-to whenever I visit Maine. Highly recommend. Go for the 6 ounce Connecticut currently priced at around $45 with tax. It's a treat.

    I don't know how we're going to get a better lobster roll than this! We enjoyed the Connecticut style lobster roll with potato salad and Maine root sodas. The lobster was delicious and the large was perfect to split between two people. The blueberry Maine root soda was yummy and I would definitely get it again! The service was quick and accommodating, especially for a food truck. We enjoyed our lobster roll at a picnic table under a tree and it was amazing! A great introduction to Maine!

    Honestly, there's not a better place than this specific Bite into Maine to get a lobster roll when you're visiting Portland. Especially on a nice day. Grab a hefty buttery roll and a seat in the grass. Dig in and enjoy the views!!

    Right in Fort Williams Park near the Portland Head Light. Full lobster rolls made 6 ways. We got the hot butter, which really allowed us to taste the lobster. Just a few picnic tables and it was cold so we ate in the car.

    YUMMMMAY! Ample parking with multiple lots. Do not forget to get a parking slip at the automated machine in the lot! The car next to us got a ticket for not having one displayed on their dashboard! We made an impromptu stop to Cape Elizabeth and am sooo glad we did! So impressed by the warm brioche bun and the heavy load of lobster. Priced at $31 each, I would say this is worth trying at least once!

    Great food, nice seating, and beach vibes. Only flaw was that it doesn't serve local beer.

    Sunshine, green open spaces and lobster rolls - what could be better! My son and husband had their regular lobster rolls with warm butter poured over top. I had their lobster rolls with coleslaw and warm butter. Best lobster roll I have ever had. Fresh, clean and down right delish!

    I've been coming here for years since the first time I visited Maine. The staff is also so fast and friendly. The lobster rolls are amazing. They are generous with the lobster meat and the amount of freshly melted butter that they pour over it it's insane! My family and I really enjoy coming here every year & would highly recommend it to everyone I know.

    What do people mean when they compare this to the storefront? What's the storefront restaurant of this?

    This location is our original food truck. We have a small takeout - which we call the Commissary- which is at 185 US Route One in Scarborough. It started as our commercial kitchen for our food trucks...and developed into retail and takeout in 2017.

The stairs are a pretty big flight to get up for an elderly person, but the railings are sturdy and available on both sides of the wide staircase, so a person can only use one railing at a time. Today was also different because for the first time ever, a seagull stole a fried clam from my tray while I was walking from picking up my food to a table to sit down. I was about ten steps away from the building and it swooped in and grabbed a fried clam! I can't believe I didn't drop the tray. It happened very fast. We ate the fried clams anyway. Some seagulls claw germs never hurt anyone? Half the red picnic tables were freshly painted. The other half were blocked off with a wet paint sign. The food (lobster rolls and fried clams) and the view (rocks, ocean and rolling waves) were spectacular as ever.

It was extremely busy during our visit, and the service was okay considering how packed the place was. The biggest issue by far is parking. There simply isn't enough of it, and trying to find a spot was an absolute mess. It really takes away from the experience before you even get inside. Great food and beautiful views, but the parking situation needs serious improvement. 3/5 stars.

We started with the fish chowder since they didn't have clam chowder. This was probably the only dish that felt average to me, although my husband really enjoyed it. Everything else was a completely different story. The raw seafood was so fresh. We tried the oysters, clams, scallops, and spoons, and every bite tasted clean, fresh, and high quality. The prices were also surprisingly reasonable compared to a lot of other places serving similar seafood. For our entrees, we both went with the hot butter lobster roll. It was classic, simple, and exactly what I expected a good lobster roll to taste like. For the price, I definitely think it was worth it. The restaurant has a casual, laid back ambiance, which fits perfectly with the no frills seafood experience. It's a great spot if you're looking for something relaxed rather than fancy. Service was attentive, friendly, and overall great. If you're in Portland and craving seafood without wanting to spend a fortune, I highly recommend giving this place a try!

    We were cruising around the Old Port having drinks and apps before dinner…read more We popped into Dry Dock for drinks and to sit on the upstairs patio. We immediately got on the waitlist for the upstairs decks & headed to the bar for drinks. Service was quick and friendly. Drink menu was good list had many options. Bartenders were knowledgeable about the drinks. I was a little disappointed I wanted to add a little fruit puree from one of the other drinks to mine and they stated most are premade so they don't have the fruit purée available as a mixer...bummer. After about 20-25 minutes we went up to the deck. Great place. Nice little view of the bay. We saw a harbor seal while having drinks. We ordered the mussels for an app. Let me tell you WOW. They may be the most succulent large muscles and broth I ever had. Muscles are a favorite dish,we usually try them at those restaurants. This was not just an ordinary wine broth, this was straight clam chowder!! I seriously asked for a spoon so I could "drink" the left over broth. Hands down most delicious mussels. Only complaint, I could've used more bread. Ha ha Must try!!

We were also fortunate enough to sit outside on their upstairs patio, though the interior decor would have been pretty cool to check out. For a beverage, my wife and I decided to split the Scorpion Bowl. It wasn't fishbowl sized like some places but it definitely had a good enough kick for the both of us to get a little buzz off of it. For the kids to eat, they got a cheeseburger and chicken fingers, both with fries and chocolate milk. The Cheeseburger was pretty run of the mill and our somewhat picky daughter had no problem with her chicken fingers with ranch to dip. The fries (for all 4 of us) were very McDonald's-esque plus a little extra salt to boot. Pretty good but nothing crazy. My wife got a lobster roll with the gluten free bun (she's celiac) and seemed to enjoy it pretty thoroughly, especially with the extra melted butter for the top. She finished the whole thing and seems like she got a pretty decent portion. I got the fish and chips (though the tuna couscous special was pretty tempting, just not at $46). The fish wasn't really an overly impressive portion and the tartar sauce wasn't much to my liking at all. All in all, this place was just OK. They seemed a little on the high end pricewise for what they had to offer and relied pretty heavily on the fries to fill us up instead of focusing on the entree as the star of the show. With all the other great places around the Old Port, I'd have to say this isn't a place I'm going to go out of my way to go back to.
