BBQ pork taco
Sydney G.

Food: I got a BBQ pork taco and a side of Mac n cheese. Both were delicious. The taco was flavorful and the Mac n cheese had tons of cheese and tasted great. The food can get a little expensive if you get a bunch of apps but it is well worth it when it comes to the taste. Service: The people here are awesome. They are personable and easy to joke around with. The owner came and talked with my party for a few minutes and gave us some great recommendations for a fun fall afternoon. Ambience: There is a lovely outdoor seating area as well as a few nice spacious indoor tables. The decor is new and well maintained.

By an act of providence we could not get a larger table at Royal River Grille a week ahead, the group was coming from all over southern Maine and this location met the time tables sorted out. Food, drinks, service, ambience and mostly importantly the Staff (especially Sarah) were outstanding! Prices reasonable for location. Inside and outdoor dining. And you have to pay $5 for the chips and house made sauces to accompany the perfect margaritas and cold tap beers, but it is so worth it!

Locally Sauced is in one of the best locations in Portland currently. It's a really hip, comfortable smaller space that can maybe accommodate twenty two or so people situated in a brick building next to a distillery, adjoining a brewery (they even have a window in the brewery side so you can order there), and two doors down from a winery. The staff is awesome; super friendly and totally accommodating. Vegan? They can guide you in the right direction! And their sauces? Try. Them. All!!! The blueberry chipotle is the perfect sweet and mild heat; the citrus serrano and mango habanero pack more of a spicy punch, but taste very similar to each other in my opinion. There are a few other things that miss the mark for me personally. Coming in at 4:30 in the afternoon, I was surprised there was no happy hour offerings. It's difficult to pay $10 to $11 dollar for a margarita when a dozen other places in town are offering similar (and some better) ones for just $5. Which leads me to the price: for two margaritas, three tacos, and an enchilada thing we spent $52 (that was before tip) - it adds up quickly here. And finally, and I know this is really nitpicking but a) the chips were strange: they tasted overcooked and didn't have any salt; maybe we just had a bad batch, but we didn't end up eating them; and b) there's no avocado or guacamole here, and that's kind of a bummer. Overall, if you're at Thompson's Point, Locally Sauced *will* hit the spot. I'm just not sure, for locals, if it's a destination spot you come out of your way for at this point.

Pastrami taco
Jill I.

Popped in here after a visit to the Makers Market At Thompson's point. On an impulse I got a pastrami taco just because I never hear of it , it was really good a bit on the drippy side but I think it was the Sauerkraut . I looked around and saw the nachos looked like something I might need to go back for. Staff was very friendly.

We were pleased to support them by taking out food over the pandemic, bu SO cool to be eating inside. Delicious burrito bowl and chicken banh mi burrito and of course the house-made chips. Excellent drinks and service. Staff masked and socially distanced tables

Chips and salsa
Rachel W.

I was extraordinarily underwhelmed and disappointed with the quality of the food at this place, especially considering the price point. I'm always a fan of food places connected with breweries, but this place really fell short of the mark. We were looking for a small appetizer to hold us over until dinner and settled on chips and salsa. The "salsa" that comes with the chips is pico de gallo served on top of the chips. And let me tell you, it was probably the most BLAND and unsatisfying pico I have ever had. The chips themselves had a weird after taste that could not be drowned out with the pico as it had no flavor (and left me wishing it wasn't poured on top of the chips). In addition you are given a side of green salsa to dip your chips in which made them edible, but we were given barely enough to use on 1/3 of the chips we had. Overall I would not recommend this place... if you are a few beers deep at bissel brothers it might seem worth it, but honestly you would be better off requesting delivery from somewhere else. It's not worth the price for unremarkable and bland food.

Only try the nachos but it was good. Probably would come back. It was an $18 tray of goodness

Nice people and the potato skin app was very good but the food is pretty expensive and it feels more like a drinking spot.

I have been impressed every time we have eaten at Fuego (5 eat in and one take out over the last 6…read moremonths). The service is very friendly and fast. The food is amazing and the prices are fantastic. If you are local and have not made Fuego a regular eatery yet, you are missing out on a quality meal!! They do an excellent and very thorough job with take out as well. Drinks are also quite excellent. Great atmosphere, casual and clean. The ceaser side salad was super fresh and I can't say enough about the roasted veggies. They are almost a meal by themselves. We ordered take out this past Sunday and I ordered the taco salad and a side of the veggies. I added them to the salad and it was spectacular!! They are perfectly cooked and garlicky. They went so good right on my salad...which was huge and packaged in a very nice resealable plastic bowl. Crispy and fresh! The food was packaged very well and it was still hot when we got home 20 min away. There are not very many resteraunts available these days that are like this but still completely affordable for local folks.

I think I found a new favorite spot in Southern Maine. I met with an old friend for dinner…read morerecently. I tried the asada bowl and am a big fan. My friend chose birria enchiladas which she also raved about. Her daughter enjoyed her quesadillas dish and all agreed that the churros were incredible. Service was awesome. Ambiance could be a bit better but the place is clean. They also have some interesting decor which is a nice touch.

This was my first time eating in restaurant but second time having the food…read more I started with the spinach beet salad which was good with a balsamic vinaigrette and Gorgonzola. My husband had chicken fingers, which just seemed like frozen & fried chicken tenders. Nothing special. My entree was a small spinach and wild mushroom specialty pizza. While the topping of caramelized mushrooms, spinach and Gorgonzola with a balsamic glaze drizzle was a good combo, the crust was very bland and did not have any flavor. Pizza is all about the crust, and I prefer a thick, chewy crust although I eat other types often. This crust was more like Greek style, but thinner. I would not go back for the pizza, which for a pizza place, is not ideal. I have had the wings in the past, which were good. The server was friendly. There is a bar area which was quite full of what appeared to be regulars.

Stopped by here for lunch and very good pizza. We also tried their fries and Stuffed Focaccia,…read moreagain, VERY good! The prices are decent with the portions. The atmosphere is casual and calming, but can be romantic too, if you wanna bring your special person here. They have a small bar and everyone there were having great conversations. The bar tender was very tentative. Now our waiter was awesome! We had a great chat and he was down to earth. We definitely will be back again, as we were full and I noticed they had a cake that started with the word "Mounds". Yup, will have to try that! Sorry about my photos, my phone was acting up, but I still wanted ya all to see them .

On top of the amazing service, the food was absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care.

I had a puffy bistek taco, and it was not as flavorful or tender as I expected, and much smaller than I remember. At $6/taco, I would have expected either a more complex flavor profile, or a larger taco. The vibe is fun and funky, but not for me anymore. The service was good, and I really liked our server. No nonsense and prompt, and when you have a hangry 5 year old, it's greatly appreciated. Especially after changing his drink order 6 times in 30 seconds. He thoroughly enjoyed the verdue puffy taco, so it's a win for us, too! Overall, a great vibe for a younger crowd with young kids. Just not for myself as a go-to.
