The result were crabs that were under steamed. We called the store, and we couldn't have dealt with nicer people. Not only did they apologize, but went above and beyond to make it right for us! Everyone has a bad day every now and then, and you never know what people are going through. It always pays to be kind and courteous, and that's what you will get back more times than not in return. Definitely recommend and will buy from this store again!

She was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, gave us great recommendations, got every single thing right, and was attentive without ever being overbearing. You could tell she genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience. The food?! We had lobster, crab legs, shrimp and pasta, swordfish, and grouper -- basically, we worked our way through the seafood menu and everything was absolutely delicious. Fresh, flavorful, generous portions, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable for the quality. Great food + great service + great prices = a definite win. We will absolutely be back!

Four of us entered the restaurant at 7:25 whereupon the first four employees we encountered (not our server or the hostess, just random employees) curtly informed us that the kitchen closes at 8:00. OK, so should we leave? We were starving but should have! Four crappy meals later, all previously frozen seafood that was poorly prepared, and lighter by $200, we regretted ever walking through the door. Let our lesson be yours and save yourself the trouble and expense. By way of comparison and not because we have any stake in it, we spent ten dollars less two nights later and had four great meals at O'Bricks downtown. Oh, and an extra round of drinks for the ladies.

May 5, 2026 - USCG Aux Flotilla meeting. 30 plus people…read more We decided to have a family and guest social and The Maine Line was invited to supply the meal to our members, guests, and family. Obviously reviewed here on Yelp and Google (I will cross post this review on both) this looked like it was going to be tasty and enjoyable "MAINE COURSE!!!" It was! I have no idea who many actual lobsters or tacos and sandwich or desserts we took down but it looks like most of the 30 plus at the meeting were eating and enjoying themselves. I got the signature Maine Lobster (Lobstah) Roll, with/cole slaw & bag of (of course) Cape Cod chips. The buttery bread/roll and the lobster were stunning!!!!! Not little lobster bisque scraps of lobster!!! This was tail and claw hunks o' meat!!! REALLY nice. Also I got the New England Clam Chowder (Chowdah) to make sure I tried their main items (and keep it under 6,000 calories for the meal!!!!) This was a GREAT chowder and so very authentic as you would expect! with "chunks of clam" and nice potato content, not a starchy potato mash soup. GREAT job. I am getting a big 16 OZ bowl next time! Finally (and I will admit here since I don't think any of the flotilla folks will see it) since I am the Commander of the base and host for this event, the owner threw in an authentic Steve's Snacks Bakery, Skowhegan ME cold and creamy Maine Whoopie Pie for dessert. (as if my uniform was not already bulging to capacity! WOW! Had not had a whoopie pie for DECADES!!!! This thing is a monster and meal all by itself, But great every bit!!! THANK YOU The Maine Line you really made out guests and members happy and we were so pleased you came out!!! We received many requests to make this an annual event or possibly a few times a year.

And now I fully understand the hype, and why people drive across the river for this sushi. A friend was telling me Clam House has consistently earned its top spot as her family's go-to sushi restaurant in the area, and I'm now convinced of the same! You cannot go wrong with any of their fresh tuna dishes, but you HAVE to start with the tuna nachos and/or the tuna martini salad. Both are delicious! The sushi selection is huge, and there's an entire other menu of the same size if you're looking for a different type of entree. Great wine list too! For the white wine fans, I recommend a bottle of the Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc. Enjoy! Don't let the packed parking lot deter you- they seat you quickly and the place is more spacious than it looks.

My guest asked a simple question on the lobster. But received a sharp response without the information asked. Like ok. Maybe he didn't understand the question. Then we went to next Items and she had a question for him. He didn't seem to want to help answer it. Then to the final question. After ordering what would be over $100 of food items for lunch. Simple question on the contents of the soup ( which is important for an extreme allergy ). He gave a very smart a** response. I asked again this is important I get an actual response. Again he said a response not answering the question. We were now done and told him to cancel it. We would go somewhere else. He didn't seem to care at all. Wow. If the restaurants goal is to be rude to the customers then they hit a 100. But rudeness and no business doesn't pay the rent nor the staffs salary Don't go here. Give it less than a year will be closed. Spend your money at local places that appreciate the business and try hard
