You can look in the back windows and watch them processing fish and shellfish as well. Full service probably some of the fresh fish around if you're asking me to guess. They also supply a lot of the local restaurants wholesale speaking you can get better prices elsewhere, but convenience and location are probably worthwhile for what they're charging.

Luckily, our friend is a fish connoisseur so she was able to find this good deal! The 3 fillets are $80 worth. We ate half that same night with some uni from another place.

Walking in smells like you walked onto the sea floor of the ocean and that's a wonderful feeling! They have a small, manageable selection of fresh fish. The day we went they had scallop, salmon, lobster, haddock, and some crab cakes and other seafare. They have a small pantry of seasonings, planks, and other seafood cooking items. By the entrance is a freezer of shrimp and other. We got standard fare: scallops and salmon. They had scallop chunks which are cheaper than regular scallops because they're the discards that have been cut up from the descalloping process, but they look, smell, and taste great. The man in charge was so attentive and really seemed knowledgeable about everything. Fun fact, they've been here since 1947! So in 2020, they've been here for over 73 years! Their Facebook is chock full of helpful seafood facts and it's just a really well managed family business. I'm so glad I stopped by and wish I had sooner.

Great service, I came as they were closing up(called first) and they didn't excuse their way out of…read morethe business like many small businesses(especially eateries) . I chose to test landlover (cheeseburger) , broiled haddock roll (hit a home run with grilled hot dog bun) that was simple yet delicious and I brought two pieces of fresh haddock home to grill. They focused on my order, not closing up. The employees were cleaning up the yard and weed wacking the edges making the property look neat and carefully manicured. I didn't see a piece of trash anywhere. Out door dining area was plentiful. Parking with BIG Trucks is "No Buenos" on their small lot,better if you find a spot on the streets adjacent to the business. I will be back,seafood this year isn't a given with prices higher than normal ex. haddock was $16.99/lb ,scallops were $22.99 per lb. Thank you Mr Sea's! It is worth the drive, 4 of 5 stars.

You can get a lobstah dinnah for $22 which includes a 1 1/4 lobster, a pound of steamed clams and a corn on the cob. Can't get better than that! There is no indoor seating. They did recently build a cover for the 3 picnic tables. You order at the window. If you were looking for fast food, this place is not for you! Everything is made to order so it will take some time but you know that it is fresh. Whether it is something steamed in the boiler outside or something fried in the back, it always comes out piping hot. The onion rings are homemade and to die for so make sure to sub out the french fries for them.

Once you are seated, you're handed a paper menu on which you mark your selections, then bring that marked-up menu to the counter, where you order and get a number. Food is brought up to you, and you can order subsequent rounds of food by crossing out previous orders and marking up the menu anew. I would highly recommend multiple rounds of oysters -- the first to try one of each and figure out which varieties you prefer, the second to get more of the ones you like, and the last to go all in on your favorite. They've got a varied selection that will suit various tastes, whether you favor a large creamy oyster, a small briny guy, or somewhere in between. All from Maine, which made me feel better about having oysters in a non-ber month. The oysters here are top notch, and the shuckers are, too. Not a single speck of shell in there! I love oysters, and this was my paradise. The non oyster items are also worth trying, so if you have a friend who isn't into oysters, there's something here for them, too. The smoked fish dip and french onion dip are awesome, and the chips they get from another local producer are fantastic. Whether you're a beer lover, a wine person, or a cocktailer, they've got something for you here. Any of those could be the perfect company for your favorite oyster, or you could go for their cucumber mint lemonade slushy, which is insanely refreshing and a great palate cleanser between oysters. Service is efficient, welcoming, and friendly. I think anyone from an oyster novice to an aficionado would feel right at home here. If I didn't live on the opposite side of the country, I'd be here all the time. Unfortunately for me, I'm relegated to pining for these oysters from a distance. If you live nearby, take advantage of your proximity and eat some oysters for me.

Hands down one of the best seafood spots in Portland, especially for the price!…read more My husband and I are big seafood lovers, so we had to stop here during our trip. 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!

My husband I loved this place so much we came here twice within a 24 hour period. The lobster roll is just French freaking kiss. Wow.. mouth watering good. It's been 8 years since our honeymoon visit and I still think about this place. Fresh lobster, crispy calamari, hot French fries. They have an open dining area where you can sit anywhere you'd like. I'm from the Midwest so trying east coast seafood for the first time was a bit daunting. I didn't want to look foolish lol! The staff was very nice and helpful. Honestly, this place a 100/10!

There are several companies that ship lobster and other shellfish from Maine to other American…read morecities. They're all reasonably expensive - after all, they're shipping live lobster, clams and other things directly to you. You can't really judge them on price - but you can judge on quality. THis is the best of the bunch. THey will ship lobsters, crab claws, clams, mussels, shrimp and other locally-caught seafood directly from their shop (right across from the dock on the Portland waterfront) to you. The lobsters always arrive alive and healthy and clean, 24 hours and sometimes less from when they were caught. For under $200 you can have 4 1-person-sized lobsters and a pound each of mussels and clams and crab claws, as well as bibs, shell-crackers, wetnaps and a picture of the fisherman who caught your lobster with a personal note and a map where he shows exactly where and when yours was caught. In fact, lately, they've sometimes offered this as part of a groupon for under $150, which is a fantastic deal (it includes overnight shipping). We got the 4-lobster and misc. shellfish selection as a 10-yr anniversary gift from my parents and it was one of the best gifts we've ever received - we enjoyed it with 2 friends and everyone had a fantastic time. I will absolutely use Catch a Piece of Maine again in the future.

One of the places that people repeatedly recommended was the fish house. We came here for lunch on a Thursday afternoon. It is right on the water and it's just a little gray shack. As you can see from the photos. But the food was very good. I had the fish tacos. They normally come with a Sriracha aïoli, but I asked them to swap that out for a mayonnaise. The fish was sautéed and crunchy. The taco also had coleslaw. They serve it with chips and they have beer and soft drinks. I had a Pacifico and it was a most enjoyable meal. My friend had the lobster roll and as most places up here it's served with both tail meat and claw meat. It was cold and served with mayo. But they also gave her a side of clarified butter. Nice touch! I had a taste and it was highly satisfactory. All in all a very good meal. There's nowhere to eat inside. It's picnic tables outside. Make sure you take care of your refuse. There are bins out back.
