We got the pulled pork Sammy.(weird right?) The Maine roll. The picnic roll. Now, we got the pulled pork because we have been having lobster rolls all day to try them all in Maine. So having a nice break was nice . And actually quite good. Maine roll was nice. Refreshing. Chives added a nice layer, not too much mayo. Over all great roll. But my favorite was the picnic. Meat was juicy. Fresh. Cold with a layer of hot butter. Texture was added by the coleslaw. Adding a vinegar flavor and mayo flavor. It was the whole package. Best lobster roll in Maine for that trip. Will come back 100%. read more

A food truck in a park? Yeah it is, and it might serve up one of the finest lobster rolls this side of Portland. I was recommended to eat one of these on my Lobstering tour and figured why not? I already am eating my way through Southern Maine so why stop? Well, good thing I stopped at Fort Williams Park to get one of these as a midday snack! Get your hands on one of these and devour. The price is right, and you can chomp on one of these as you walk along Fort Williams Park taking all the pictures of the Portland Head Light. Unfortunately there are no bathrooms nearby, so eat it carefully. Lobster roll + Beautiful day + Gorgeous Scenery = Vacationland. read more

This is a very good lobster roll food truck in a beautiful park setting, but be warned that the line can get long at certain times. I would say that the lobster roll was very good and definitely hit the spot, but the star here is the scenery with the beautiful lighthouse and park. I wish they had better seating with some shade as it can get hot on a sunny day. Service was friendly and parking can be a challenge, but if you want one of the best locations to eat a lobster roll, this is it. read more

The truth is, Bite Into Maine just isn't as good as it used to be. I went several times, to multiple locations, this summer and it is definitely decidedly worse. I'm not sure if the lobster doesn't taste as fresh, the roll isn't grilled as well, or what the issue is. Maybe their success has spurred complacency. Portland is surprisingly a terrible city for lobster rolls, so it's still a four star experience in that landscape. But it's not the home run, top national pick that it once was. Especially for the higher prices. read more

Maine style lobster rolls are my favorite and I can see why Bite Into Maine has gained quite the following. The line may look long but they take care of everyone relatively quickly You can choose the amount of lobster you want in each roll, even the "small" is a generous amount ---Maine style lobster roll with mayo and chives: yummmm and great with that buttered roll ---curry lobster roll: interesting but not something I'd order again. We were debating between this one and the picnic Great location at Fort Williams so you can enjoy the views with your lobster roll read more

This was more than a decade ago. The food truck st ft Williams never moves is there from April into autumn. Liber rolls back then were 18:95 not 23 and now they are 29 for important reasons. But they are fresh and perfect with the 4 plus oz of meat or you can get one adding even more lobster meat on top of same size roll. Still the very best. read more

We found the best Lobster rolls in Maine here. We heard about this place on YouTube so we knew it was going to be amazing. I loved that they offered a variety of options and flavors apart from the typical Maine and Connecticut styles. I wish we had time and belly space to try them all. The lobster was fresh and the rolls were soft and fluffy, very filling, and the rolls all came with chips. The food truck is located at Fort Williams Park so you can check out a bunch of attractions (lighthouse, mansions, etc) while you visit! read more

Recommended: Absolutely, for a quintessential Maine lobster roll experience. Overall: A top-tier choice for lobster rolls, set against the stunning backdrop of Portland Head Light. Snapshot: Food: 5/5 Drink: NA Vibe: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Value: 4/5 ‍‍ Family-Friendly: NA Highlights: Perfect For: Savoring a traditional Maine lobster roll in a picturesque setting Don't Miss: The classic Maine lobster roll, known for its perfect balance of lobster and mayo Bonus Tip: Be prepared for a bit of a wait, but the location and quality are worth it All The Details: As self-proclaimed lobster roll connoisseurs, my husband and I always look forward to discovering our favorite lobster roll each summer. The location is unbeatable, with the magnificent view of the lighthouse adding to the experience. The traditional Maine lobster roll here is a delight - tossed in mayo and served cold on a roll with a side of chips. The lobster is consistently cooked to perfection, generously portioned, and dressed with just the right amount of mayo, avoiding the over-saturation found at some other places. This was our first time visiting this specific location, although we've enjoyed their fare at the Allagash truck in the past. The staff were pleasant and helpful. Expect a bit of a wait, which is typical for such a scenic and tourist-favored spot, but it's a small price to pay for such quality and ambiance. read more

This is a place to splurge if you are craving lobster rolls. The quality and the taste of lobster is THE best here. We went to Allagash brewery today and much to my surprise the truck was at Allagash brewery. We ordered 6" Maine lobster rolls and it did cost us a fortune. ($36 each!!!) The roll had minimal mayo but a ton of lobster and it came with a side of chips. I would have liked to try the wasabi roll but it was not on the menu. Based on the recommendations from other Yelpers got the lemon-lime drink and it was refreshing. read more

First things first: they don't say on the sign that they have gluten free bread, but they did. The line will be long. It will be worth it. This is actually the first lobster roll I ever ate (lots of people said it was the best so it seemed a good starting point!) The gluten free roll was impressively good, didn't melt like don't gluten free rolls do when exposed to say, melted butter. I got the smaller size of sandwich and it was a nice portion. I loved it, and it definitely was the best lobster I ate during my trip. Pro tip that is only marginally related to the food truck: you can Uber TO this location, but getting someone to pick you up can be really challenging. If you don't have a car, you might try one of their more centrally located shops. read more

Not "the best lobster roll I've ever had" as some have written but I also live here. This is a decent roll for sure. The roll was buttery.

After seeing this lobster roll from a trailer featured on the Netflix show, "Somebody Feed Phil", we had to make a drive over to Cape Elizabeth to check it out. It was definitely the most expensive lobster roll we had on our trip and I'm not sure it was worth the price tag. I went with the 6oz Wasabi Roll and my wife had the 4.5oz Picnic Roll. Her roll looked way bigger than mine and mine didn't taste like wasabi at all. It was still good but I legitimately thought our order was wrong because how much larger her portion was and how mine didn't taste like wasabi. 1 small roll, 1 large roll, 2 waters, 1 coke, 1 side of coleslaw, and 1 side of potato salad and our total was $97.85. The staff was very friendly and the food was nothing to complain about, just seem overpriced because they've been featured on so many TV shows and people are willing to pay it. Not our favorite roll of the trip but not bad. read more

Bottom Line: Food truck in Fort Williams Park serving excellent lobstah rolls. My husband and I went to Bite Into Maine for one last lobstah roll before heading to the airport. We'd heard that Bite Into Maine is one of the best places for lobster rolls in Portland and we agree. We each had around seven lobster rolls while in Maine for five days and Bite into Maine was tied for first in our opinion with another local-ish food truck. My husband went with a cold Maine style lobster roll and I went for the Connecticut style with drawn butter. Both were served on toasted and buttered split top rolls. Bite Into Maine offers some other exotic flavors of lobster rolls and I was tempted to go with the Yellow Curry version but kept it classic in the end. When we visited they were offering 4.5oz rolls and 6 oz. rolls. The market price when we visited (end of May) was $28 and $36 respectively. We also got a soda and Whoopie Pie. The Whoopie Pie was sweet and decadent. The team working the food truck was friendly and we enjoyed our meal at a nearby picnic table. read more

Thank GODDESS my wife saw the reviews for this truck. We were visiting Portland Headlight and assumed it was a standard tourist trap "authentic" lobster stand...and perhaps it is but it is WORTH IT. Go ahead and prepare yourself: a 6oz lobster roll is $40. We shared one but definitely could have each eaten our own. We did CT style with just the butter and it was divine. Without a doubt my fav lobster roll of our visit! read more

I'm sure the lobster rolls here are fresh and tasty. I'm just not into lobster rolls enough to want to get one at those prices. But it's obvious they put a lot of care into preparing them, as we could watch them putting the final touches on them (e.g., butter) right before handing them to the customers. I was quite happy to go with the pulled pork sandwich, at about one-third the cost, with a generous portion of tender pork, a soft bun, and the right amount of sauce and seasoning. And hooray for Maine/New England beverages, including my first Moxie of my stay in Portland. My only concern was that I felt I had to keep my hands in my pockets after finishing my sandwich, because, in dog-friendly Fort Williams Park, I think my hands would have been the recipient of much sniffing and licking were they given the chance. read more

I will forever live and swear by the fact that Bite Into Maine has THE BEST lobster rolls around. My boyfriend and I were so sick of lobster after a week long stay in the Bar Harbor area, but upon finding Bite Into Maine, that all changed! This is the one food truck that we visit every time we're in the area, & we recommend it to all our friends as well. They really have the lobster roll down to a science - from the perfectly buttered & toasty roll, to the generous heaping portions of lobster meat (prepared different ways!!). It can get busy but it is well worth the wait. read more

Ordered: 4.5 oz Connecticut Lobster Roll (~$28): just warm butter on top; comes with a side of Cape Cod potato chips Lemon Lime Maine Root Co. Soda (~$3) Aya's take: Well well well, if it isn't the lobster roll of my dreams. Located right by the Portland Head Light, not only can you get a great view but a delicious lobster roll, as well. The lobster is super fresh and you can't go wrong with just butter. The Cape Cod chips & Maine Root soda made it feel like a full meal and was the ultimate "Maine experience". Price is a bit steep but it's worth a try! read more

Bite Into Maine - Lobster roll (6oz), Maine style - Seafood Near Me - Cape Elizabeth, Maine

Bite into Maine offers 3 styles: Connecticut style, Maine style, and Picnic Style. All 3 rolls can be ordered in small or large, dictating the amount of lobster on the roll. The prices are expensive but seem fairly typical for lobster rolls given the cost of the meat. The bun was 5/5-a perfectly toasted, deliciously sweet brioche bun. The location was also 5/5-located at Allahabad brewery, you can get a nice beer with your lobster roll and find a seat in the shade. The roll itself was 4/5-the lobster was very fresh but, as other reviewers have mentioned, it is very cold which causes the butter to congeal a bit as if is poured on. We finished off the meal with and allagash-style Whoopie pie which has allagash stout in the cookie and Bailey's in the cream--very tasty! read more

The best lobster roll I had in Portland! I got the Connecticut (which is just a butter drizzle topping) and paid $30. While pricey, I think that it was so worth it because of the generous portion of lobster they give. The brioche bun was so soft and buttery too- just perfect! Note that this is a food truck and theres only 3 picnic tables nearby so finding a place to eat can be limited. The truck was pretty busy when I went but I got my food pretty fast, in 15 minutes. If you go to the Portland Head Lights, definitely make some time to stop here!! read more

If hungry and want fresh food this is the place! Wife and I got the Connecticut lobster roll today and was amazing.

This is the more recommended place for lobster rolls in Maine. We did a lobster roll tour all around and was on the hunt for the freshest/fullest roll out here in Maine. Was a little skeptical at first bc it's a literal food truck. But let me tell you this was probably the best one we had throughout the trip!! It's also located in such a great place for a stop to eat while you're at fort Williams park doing activities or walking around the lighthouse. It was super fresh lobster and the most tasty. We also feel like they were generous w the portion. We got the picnic style which has some salad/celery in it and that was a perfect touch and crunch to the roll. This is one of the best out there !! Price is a couple dollars higher than the average price roll we compared it to but it's worth it! read more

Top level Lobster rolls, no doubt about it. We rolled into Fort Willams Park and see the Bite Into Maine truck at the top of a hill. I think alright Food Truck level Lobster rolls, I'm sure it's serviceable. Yeah more like Overachieve-able. Such a simple concept but clearly they've mastered it. They picked the right guy to take orders. Even with line pressure, the guy was calm, cool and humorous as we're trying to figure out what to get. All the options sound awesome but I settle on the Wasabi roll. They took Lobster rolls and took it to the next level. I don't think I can just eat a regular old Lobster roll now. It has to be Bite Into Maine. It came out so fast too! definitely under 3 minutes. The Lobster roll is overflowing with Lobster. How it should be. No skimping out here. Hope you're ready for a real Lobster roll. The roll? Hot and toasted just a little bit. warms the Lobster a bit, but just enough so it's still cold. Man, just a Lobster roll? No! you get a bag of chips too! It's just Lays, but they don't have to do that. It's pricey, but around these parts all Lobster is, so if you're gonna have some, make it here. Again top level, next level Lobster Rolls here. If you happen upon a Bite Into Maine location (There are 3). You know what to do. You Bite into Maine! read more

I bookmarked this place when I found out Mark Wiens ate here and it was highly rated by lots of food magazines. I went to eat lunch here on beautiful day in Maine after visiting the light house. We ordered the large lobster roll and got it Maine style (ofc we had to get Maine style bc we're in Maine), and it was about $40. Did it wow me? No. It just tasted like cold lobster with Mayo on it with some chives on top with chips on the side. The roll was so bland that I pushed it all to my husband and let him eat it all. The only saving grace was that there was salt and hot sauce on the counter that made it a little more bearable to eat. The lobster however, was fresh and plentiful so there's that! What I liked about it was that it wasn't just only claw meat but had big chunks of tail meat too. Honestly, the best part of the meal was the blueberry soda $3. I liked it so much I went over to Hanaford's and bought myself a case to drink. read more

My husband and I eat got a 6 oz Connecticut lobster roll. It was delicious! Perfect way to start our trip in Maine

This location is conveniently located right next to the lighthouse which means you have an amazing view of the water and lighthouse! Service was super fast from ordering to receiving the lobster rolls. We ordered the curry lobster roll and wasabi lobster rolls. The curry one was so good, after a week of having just lobster rolls it was great to have some variety in flavor! The curry taste was strong but not overbearing at all meaning it was well balanced. The wasabi lobster roll on the other hand was so so disappointing, absolutely no wasabi flavor whatsoever. It was still a pretty tasty roll and had tons of meat on a nicely toasted roll. I would for sure skip the wasabi roll next time and order something that had flavor instead. read more

This is the iconic food truck location. My friends and I arrived right before they opened and there was already a line. Between the 6 of us we ordered all 6 of the lobster rolls at 4.5 oz each which was plenty. We all agreed the Maine, Connecticut and Picnics were our favorite. These specific rolls had the best flavor, warm butter and no condiments needed for extra seasoning. This food truck had a great ordering system going and their execution was perfect. Pull up and place your order. Your rolls should come out in less than 10 minutes. No cash and all card here. Located right in Fort Williams park at the top of the hill this a great place to take the family. We found plenty of picnic tables around the truck and towards the light house about a 2 minute walk away. The staff here is really friendly. If you aren't sure which role to get just tell them what type of flavors you like and they'll lead you to the right one. For the price that you pay, we felt like we got great value with the amount of lobster meat that we got. This is a must go Portland, ME spot if you love lobster. read more

tl;dr this food cart matches the scenic views of Portland Head Light with top-notch lobster rolls Stationed at Fork Williams Park uphill from the Portland Head Light, Bite Into Maine screams tourist trap more than foodie destination. Yet, this trailer is routinely praised by locals and travelers alike as dealing some of the best lobster rolls in Maine. Play it safe with a classic Maine-style (with mayo) and Connecticut-style (with melted butter), or roll the dice with the more eclectic selections (including wasabi and yellow curry varieties). A number of non-seafood eats are available as well. My partner and I opted to stick to the classics, splitting the Maine and Connecticut styles. The grilled bun was sturdy and buttery without being overbearing, and neither style's toppings drowned out the subtle flavor of the fresh lobster. Heavy with fresh claw meat, Bite Into Maine probably served up the best lobster roll I've had the opportunity to enjoy. The queue can vary widely. A lot of reviews say to expect a 30+ minute wait. In contrast, we lucked out and happened to wait in line for 5 minutes, with food ready after another 10 (to be fair, we narrowly arrived ahead of a tour bus full of hungry travelers). At a hair over $20 for a small (4.5oz) roll, Bite Into Maine may well be the most expensive food cart you'll ever visit. But there's a darn good reason why even the locals point toward this joint to sample Portland's best lobster rolls. Part of the premium certainly comes from the picturesque backdrop that other lobster shack can readily offset. Portland Head Light alone is worth a trip out of your way, so Bite Into Maine is really the cherry on top of an idyllic afternoon. read more
