I spent a week on Orrs Island Maine and must have eaten at every lobster shack and restaurant in the area. But Erica's is no doubt the best food for the price in a 20mile radius. Lobster Roll amazing, Crab Roll amazing, Fried Clams amazing, Clam Chowder amazing, and the Fried Shrimp amazing. So pretty sure you cant go wrong with anything on the menu. read more

Erica's seafood was one of the spots we went to for lobster roll. 2 for $20 was not bad at all considering the amount of lobsters you get. It was perfectly seasoned and the bread they used went well with it. We went to other places around Maine as recommended by other yelpers, but we ended up ranting about how much better was Erica's seafood and how affordable it was! We will definitely come back to Maine for these authentic lobster rolls. read more

This Review is only for the fresh seafood to carry out (non-cooked) The prices are bit (barely) higher than other local stores; however the quality and service are worth it. We got about 25lbs of lobster (16 total) at about $3.99/lb. It was perhaps the freshest lobster I have ever had. Tom (the owner) was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He literally pulled all 16 lobsters out of the ocean as we watched. read more

This little stand puts out the most amazing seafood! There was a short line in front of us, and the picnic tables were all occupied. The ordering line took about 5 minutes, and another 5 minutes for our food to be ready. There is a drink machine nearby to get drinks from so bring change or dollar bills if you like to drink with your meal ($1.75 per soft drink). I ordered the "Crabster" roll basket, it came with fries, cole slaw, a pickle wedge, and a grilled hotdog bun stuffed full of a combo of crabmeat and lobster mixed with mayo. It was delicious and the perfect way to eat both of my favorite seafood rolls in one go! The food was hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious! My daughter had the lobster roll and a cup of clam chowder (picture enclosed). This didn't come as a basket, just the way she arranged it for the picture. Don't be fooled by the unassuming look of the chowder...under that top layer of liquid, it was jammed packed of clams...big strips and pieces, not little bitty bits. It was scalding hot fresh so be careful of that. There were 7 of us eating and everyone had an awesome meal...no complaints and complete satisfaction. read more

Erica's Seafood - Seafood Near Me - Harpswell, Maine

I called Erica's seafood before traveling two hours to find out if they had lobster. They told me yes we have soft shell and hardshell tell me the prices told me that they steam them if you eat there told me that they charge a dollar extra if you eat it there and when I got there two hours later they were completely out. I feel like I was miss lead because they know after traveling that far you're going to buy something and of course we did because we were hungry but I'm very disappointed in the restaurant and the person I spoke to you. I would never recommend them because I feel like I was miss lead read more

After our third time here in six days, we feel duty-bound to sing the praises of Erica's Seafood. Everytime we have eaten somewhere else (mostly because we need an occasional salad), we wish we had simply come back for lobster rolls and potato salad. Being reasonably priced is like extra special remoulade to these fresh, generously-filled, perfectly-toasted and lightly-buttered rolls. Support the small business run by this lovely family and make your stomach happy! Whether you buy whole live lobsters or the other seafood offerings, it may be the best you will ever have -- made even more perfect by a BYO picnic-table with lovely views of the bay. read more

Classic Maine outdoors/lo-frills eatery...in a market where often lobster rolls are more roll than lobster, this place delivers the goods. Great pricing matches the quality, with a beautiful view of the harbor. The only complaint was that drinks = use limited vending machine on the premises. BYOBeverage is a must. read more

Fantastic crabster roll. A little on the small side but awesome flavor. Clam chowder had so much clam in it it was amazing.

Highly recommend the Crabster roll and the whole belly fried clams! Everything is fresh and delicious. The best thing about this place is the owners. We showed up for a week of vacation and made friends for life. Friendly and hard working...two words that describe the owners. Delicious and fresh describes the food they serve. A must visit if you're visiting Harpswell. read more

Erica's is the perfect place to go to get a great lobster roll for a descent price. It's hard to get to but it's definitely worth the trip

They have the best lobster rolls around. I don't even like seafood but I will eat these lobster rolls! They are amazingly fresh. The dock where the lobsters are brought in is right there. You can even talk to the lobster men. Super cute and fun place. A MUST go kind of place! read more

Best lobster rolls around. Sit at the picnic benches and enjoy the food, the view and always pleasant help.

The best chowder I have eaten not overly creamy. Clam roll was amazing. My father in law who has a place in Maine said it was the best crab roll he has ever eaten. They also make a crab/lobster roll which is very yummy. read more

Wow! This place is fantastic. VERY well priced! Great location and view. The lobsterman/cook was very personable as was the lady at the window. The seafood chowder was hot and chocked full of a great variety of seafood and the lobster was cooked to perfection and sweet! I want to go back ...now! read more

Great food at pretty good prices.Lobster rolls are $12.00. We actually went next door where they keep the live lobster and they sell them for $5.00 a pound plus $1.00 to steam them. We picked out 4 lobsters and they were delicious! Big claws and big tails! It's an outdoor dining experience and well worth the travel time to visit! read more

Fantastic low key, casual set up with nice scenery. Delicious lobster and crab rolls!

My favorite seasonal/summer time place to eat. The food is always amazing, the prices are very reasonable. The owners and staff are wonderful. Also, you can't beat the views. read more

If I want Scallops I want Erica's Basket, outstanding, eating overlooking water, smelling the coastal air, staff unbeatable, we discovered piece of heaven. We travel from Western Maine Mountains at least twice a Summer for my Scallop Basket read more

The wait was easily explained by the two large groups in front of me. Even so, the hotdog was worth the twenty minute wait. For the food the price is right. Would recommend. read more

Lots of things are good at Erica's, but the clam chowder is just fantastic. Drive out for that alone. Get other things too, but don't miss the clam chowder. It will provoke some rethinking about just what clam chowder is, and there's no going back. read more

Erica's clam chowder is awesome. Fried clams and oysters, super. Scallops, good. Lobster from the lobster pound, good and good conversation. Always a positive experience and reasonably priced. Picnic tables, nice view. Cash only. read more

Great food, fresh and affordable. BYOB. Good for kids, they can run around and the live lobster pool is a sight.

I love Erica's fried clams and my dad loves the crab and lobster roll. This is one of my favorite seafood takeouts and the folks that own and operate this restaurant know how to treat their customers. The portions are generous and the prices are very reasonable. Cash only, so plan ahead. read more

Had lunch here. Very reasonable and very good. To the guy in the lobster shack, thanks for the informative discussion on lobster and lobstering. read more

If you find yourself in Harpswell you have to try Erica's. Fast, friendly service and the haddock sandwich was excellent. The seafood chowder is awesome and the fried clams were clean and tasty. You have to take the road less traveled to get there but well worth it. read more

I chose this for my birthday lunch so my granddaughter (2 1/2) could run around. The great food was a bonus! I had seafood chowder and a crabster roll. I imagined the latter would be 3/4ths crab, 1/4 lobster but it is the opposite (and $1.50 less than lobster roll). Great for people like me who have a hard time deciding.Fried clams were enjoyed by one daughter and sampled with enjoyment by picky-eater granddaughter! Lobster roll and cheeseburger (there's one in every crowd) were approved also, and the grilled cheese we ordered for the wee one looked good too. If you are "from away" (especially inland), remember that when you're this close to the ocean, it's going to be cooler than if you're even 5 or 10 miles away, so bring a jacket or sweater. You can bring your own drinks, otherwise there is a Pepsi product machine ($1.50). Cash only. Also, the drive out to Basin Point is pretty for the most part. read more

Came on a boat. Cash only. Lost our business. You guys do know it's 2015 right? Get it together

Erica's Seafood is a friendly, fresh air casual experience with unique views of the hidden gem of Casco Bay. The fried: scallops, haddock, oysters, fries, and the lobster rolls are delicious, and the serving sizes are more than satisfying. Andrea, Erica's mom, is diligent and consistent ensuring that the food that is served is delicious time and time again. The entire staff are friendly happy locals excited to share the great taste of Harpswell with visitors and year round residents alike. Tommy, Erica's dad is the lobsterman extraordinaire that owns and operates the adjoining lobster wharf that provides the much hailed lobster that fills the lobster rolls. Tommy personally hand selects the lobsters and works directly with the local lobsterman to ensure Erica's has the freshest, right from the water to your table. He will steam the lobsters on site for you to eat there, or take home fresh or steamed to eat later. Served with pride and always good! read more
