An OUTSTANDING and delicious upscale restaurant- our entire party of 9 enjoyed every bite - from the brussel sprouts appetizer to the black linguini scallop dish and buccatini di pesce! Sophia our sever was the best! read more

I am so sorry that in the four years Pine Point Grill had been open I have not made the time to go. Chef Ryan is exceptional! I am working my way through the menu for the third consecutive week. I am only sharing this review after confirming that I can call ahead for a reservation. This place is a gem! Don't be afraid to order anything on the menu because it's all delicious and reasonable! Brussels, tots, and Beet salad are the favorite so far for apps. Entree favorites include pizza, shrimp and grits, and chicken tender tacos. Desert changes periodically. Delish. Full bar, great wait staff, deck, indoor seating, and great ambiance. Thank you! read more

Amazing dinner. No wait at all. Had the brussel sprouts app. (Best I've ever had.) Got the steak tacos. They were great. Dad had the Salmon & he loved it. Rhubarb dessert was awesome. Josh was an adorable waiter. We'll be back. read more

Had a great pizza here. Thin crust with prosciutto, fig & ricotta. Delicious. Also had a burger which was done just the way I wanted. Came with hand cut fries not the frozen kind! Would definitely recommend. read more

Excellent! We started with the soup special (squash). Fantastic is our response. The shrimp tacos were fresh tasty and a great pesto sauce But by far the greatest thing on the menu is the roasted Brussels sprouts. The best we have ever had and we have had a lot. Don't forget the short ribs. They are wonderful read more

Great food and great service. Sheila the owner and Ryan the chef are always changing up the menu and adding delicious new appetizers and entrees. One of my favorite restaurants!!! read more

As a visitor from Los Angeles I was impressed with how consistently good our meal was. The staff was very friendly and efficient. We started with a strawberry rhubarb martini and had the smoky chicken quesadilla as an appetizer. When we found out the owner was Italian we tried the pizza, which was one of the tastiest I have had. The patio is very cozy and relaxing. We look forward to returning on our next visit to Maine. read more

A nice change of pace from the other restaurants in the OOB area. The food was excellent and the service was good. We had steak fritte, pizza, fish tacos and surf and turf. Everyone was very happy with dinner and we all said that we would visit PPG again next time we are in the area. read more

Last Saturday, my husband and I went to the PPG for dinner. We were not greeted upon entry into the restaurant and the wait staff seemed confused about how to handle the busy night. When were finally greeted by the owner, she was almost inconvenienced that we wanted to have dinner, but didn't have reservations. Because I won't judge a restaurant by one visit, today I called to make reservations. When the owner called me back, she didn't ask for me by name and was unclear about whether they had reservations available. She, again, acted inconvenienced that I wanted reservations. The food is fine, but you can get much better food with a lot better service in Portland. read more

What a fantastic experience! Everything was top notch, including service, atmosphere and food. The appetizers of the beet salad, Brussel sprouts and seafood chowder were delicious. We ordered The skirt steak, scallops with polenta and whitefish wrapped in bacon for the entrees and we all cleaned our plates. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal out. I am already looking forward to my next visit! read more

We loved the PPG! Went for breakfast, so I splurged with a lobster eggs Benedict that was amazing! We also went for dinner with a group of 6- every meal was delicious- the pizza was excellent- so hard to find good pizza! The waitress was very sweet and completely attentive. The place was buzzing! Hats off!- for being a newly opened restaurant!! read more

I was quite disappointed with my experience at this place especially with all the good reviews. To start, I made a reservation for 5 people only to find out when I arrived that the tables only accommodate 4 and that they just pull another chair up. When I seemed confused, the unfriendly and rather annoyed looking hostess told us well you can go outside as the tables are bigger. We promptly escorted ourselves outside to dine with the mosquitoes as apparently the tiki lamps were not working again to find 4 person tables. The waitress was wonderful and very attentive. I ordered crab cakes to start and it was okay; too much mayo but nice flavor. For dinner, a few of my family members order the chicken parm. This was terrible! Do not order this. I ordered salmon which was fine. It was over some white rice with veggies. Again nothing amazing. I would not return however the bar did look nice and would be a nice place to maybe get a quick drink without eating. read more

PPG has become one of our go to places! Since they've opened they seemed to get better and better! They've opened up the dining room so you're more comfortable and don't feel cramped. The portions are not always the same, but the flavors of everything is terrific! We usually start with a cesaer or beet salad- we've had their pizzas, tried many pastas and love to choose from their specials. Sheila and her staff, we like to be seated with Jenna, are all always so friendly and accommodating. We've brought friends and family and everyone always finds something yummy to eat. read more

Ordered a burger medium temp. Got it almost rare. Blood soaked bottom bun. Fell apart into quarters after picking it up. Let waiter know. Got burger back and was the same reconstructed burger. Half was ok, half was still undercooked. Also due to the burger falling apart the first time, I don't think some of it made the round trip back to my plate for then second go-round. The waiter felt bad. Not his fault right? Tried to push the remaking of the burger pretty hard. I already ate some of my fiancé's pizza, which wasn't bad. Didn't want the burger anymore. Told him to just take it off the bill. He took it off. So the waiter, again saying he feels bad and wants to make it right, asks us if we want dessert. We say no thanks. He then asks if I want a beer because he feels bad, everyone at my table under the assumption that it's complimentary for the burger issue. I get the bill and the second beer is on it. I would have never ordered it. read more

We waited for 25 minutes before a waitress offered water and bread. The service staff seems to be untrained. The food is very pedestrian, not worth the price they are charging. My wife ordered the risotto which was tasty, but was only about a 1/2 cup of food for $20. The real clincher to the evening was that our waitress did not even ask if we wanted coffee and desert. It would serve the owners well to get a restaurant consultant in there to teach them how to run an upscale establishment. We will be spending our money at the established Portland restaurants as we always have. Sorry to say the Pine Point Grill will not be on the list. read more

I thought there should be a salad with the entrée. The portions seemed skimpy for the price, and there should more choice on the menu.

Never again. Ate there tonight--have been there before and satisfied. My short ribs were fine. my wife's chicken Oscar was tough and NO CRAB. When we told our server about it should said the manager would come over. Manager did not come until after our check came with only $3 off because of missing crab. Manager seemed to want to argue about it. Ridiculous. All pre-dinner salads (no meat) are $10. Way too expensive. Too many great restaurants in the area to waste your time here. read more

Overall, it was a nice experience. Pleasant atmosphere, clean and nice decor. Service was efficient, but a bit erratic. Waitress was very friendly. One of the owners stopped by the table and chatted with us a bit, which we thought was nice. We had a white pizza with prosciutto and asparagus that was just fantastic. The crust was one of the best we've ever had. We found the pizza so good we bought a second one to bring back and share with friends we were seeing that night. The entrees all looked great, but we thought they were a bit pricey, which is why we went with the pizza. We're looking forward to heading back again sometime soon for the pizza or just a drink at the bar. read more

We are Full-Time RVer's and we travel from place to place about every 2 weeks. We leave reviews for every place we visit. So, we saw this restaurant several times and kept saying we should try it. Looked them up online to make sure it didn't say reservations only and it didn't so we attempted to go there. I was greeted at the door with a scoured looking woman who I no know as the owner. She pointed to 2 bar seats that were open but didn't speak lol. I said are you reservations only and she shook her head yes. Still no words. So we decided the next day to make a reservation and try them out. I still didn't know she was the owner. When we arrived the same lady greeted us at the door and I told her our name and she didn't speak she pointed to a table for us to go sit at. No she didn't seat us at this so called reservation only restaurant. The restaurant was small and quaint exactly what we were looking for. As we are ordering drinks and appetizers, we always order a bottle of wine and take the remainder home with us. We were celebrating and wanted to order a shot for each one of us to do a toast to another successful month. We ordered 2 appetizers and 2 dinners. We were denied our celebratory shots. She assumed who was driving, she assumed everything making an a** out of herself. After everything I will tell you the food was great, but the customer service aka the owner is AWFUL!!!! Remember we went there twice and were treated exactly the same. So it wasn't just a bad day! That is who she is!!!! read more

Herb & Marge Lines from Cassadaga, NY. What a great place! Food is terrific, service is incredibly fast. The owner is onsite most of the time & she's wonderful. The head bartender "Mandy" is a wonderful, wonderful person & stupendous at what she does. Wanted to bring her home with us, but wife said no ... LOL. Will certainly miss her if we are unable to come back to the area. read more

Wanted to support local owners, so I tried it a few times. In my opinion, it's over priced, small portions, inconsist preparations. Some items are ok, others are bland or over-cooked. Wait staff not very welcoming or friendly. Sorry - just being honest. read more

We loved the drinks and bartenders, the food is very overpriced for "fresh pasta" which is not at all, we received boxed spaghetti as a substitute for homemade fettuccine with no apologies. The supposedly homemade lobster ravioli was average. I wouldn't return unless they really made homemade pasta as they claim, very disappointing. read more

Wow, way over priced for sub part food. The risotto was runny and a VERY small portion for the price. Meatballs were tough and flavor was minimal in almost all 5 of our dishes. They need to seriously look at the price for what they are offering. Tourists might go for it but no way will they make it through the winter. read more

We found this small quaint restaurant on Yelp, and we were not disappointed. From the friendly hostess to our waitress, Emily, the service was great. Shared a crab cake, one of the best we have ever had! We each had our own salad, should have shared. Bill had the Cesar salad, I had the beet salad with goat cheese, and took it home. We should have stopped there. Pork chop and salmon were our entrees, would order them again. If your ever in Scarborough don't miss this place! read more

Pine Point Grille misses the mark on the food taste. The quality and freshness of the food is good, but chef choices are off. Perhaps they try to hard to be unique instead of just making it great simple food. The Brussels sprouts appetizer for example was burned on the outside on purpose with a seasoning that just did not work well. The prosciutto pizza had overwhelming garlic. The mushroom and shrimp risotto has too much oil and undercooked shrimp. The food quality is there, the atmosphere is there, the service is good, but they really need to refine the menu ingredients and pay attention to what is not being eaten by customers. There is nothing wrong with a fresh and unique menu but only if it's tested and good. read more

This used to be my favorite place, but lately they are slacking. My potato with the scallops wasn't fully cooked. The lobster carbonara was $37 and hardly had any lobster. There wasn't a claw or tail, just small pieces. It's not worth the price. The service was good, but they need to focus on the dishes that customers over pay for. read more

Great location for both locals and tourists. Needs to improve service and tweak a few presentations. The ravioli was over sauced. It looked more like soup. Pasta and meatballs are out of this world. Will continue to support friendly, hard working new owners. read more

We were so happy with our dinner at PPG that we ate here two times In one week. I thoroughly enjoyed the steak which was so tender and very flavorful. My son ordered the chicken Oscar twice and others loved the salmon special. My only comment is that it seems there is one pepper grinder for the entire restaurant as it moved from table to table as requested. There's a salt shaker on the table but no pepper. The owner is very friendly. The restaurant is on the small side but there's a lovely garden patio with tables. High points for the great bar stools with backs, foot rail for us shorties and a pocketbook hook! Great addition to this neck of the woods where the only other choices are fried seafood and pizza. read more

Tried to make a reservation here for 2 people. They only take reservations for 3 or more. What restaurant will not take a reservation for 2 people? With restaurants close by that do, I will take my business there. read more

Good Lord, save your money! We ate there on a fairly slow evening a few days ago. GREASY scallops, poorly cooked risotto (the kiss of death for my husband), & the waitstaff was fairly...basic?...people you'd expect more at The Clambake in terms of knowledge of cuisine. Our waitress took 15 minutes to arrive and there appeared to be a LOT of the owner's family milling about. We felt they should have helped more or at least gotten the heck out of the way! There was a little old man who greeted us at the door, who then proceeded to hover only to boast of the establishment's accomplishments to the point of annoyance. And where do they get off charging nearly $10/glass of low grade Chardonnay? It took 3 hours for plates that were poorly presented. And, oh! we could hear the cooks (sorry, with food that bad, were hesitant to call them chefs) swearing in the kitchen! Word has it they got Back Bay Grille's cast off for "head chef". It's obvious why BBG let him go. DO NOT BOTHER! read more

Wonderful dinner for our party of 8 on June 25. I have been coming to Scarborough for more than 40 years, and each year we struggle to find a nice upscale dinner choice. The Brussels Sprouts appetizer was amazing and the ginger soy chicken wings were delicious. A member of our party ordered the crab cake appetizer for dinner and it was large and filled with crabmeat and a small amount of flavorful filling. I chose the Lobster Tranglotti, a large triangle shaped ravioli stuffed with lobster and a lemon butter sauce. Hands down one of the best lobster dishes I have enjoyed in all my years visiting Maine. Two in our group ordered the Seared Scallops, they both said the scallops were excellent and the polenta authentic. Two others ordered the Chicken Oscar they both were thrilled with the choice as the chicken was moist and delicious as was the crab and hollandaise. The final two guests ordered the Grilled Skirt Steak and and Bacon Wrapped Whitefish both received a thumbs up. Enjoyed red and white wine reasonably priced. Wonderful friendly staff and owner. Can't wait to go back. read more

We arrived at around 6:30pm on a Monday evening and the parking lot was packed with BMWs and Audis, which was a red flag in my mind, despite our party arriving in a BMW and Lexus. Maybe my trepidation was because our cars were the only ones with green plates. Our group of six walked in, were told that there was a 45 minute wait, and bellied up to the bar. A nice young woman took our drink orders and was extremely pleasant. I missed exactly what happened next, but the hostess, (who I think might have been the owner or manager) came to us and let us know we would have a table in around five minutes. She mentioned something about our asking for a table nicely, which is surprising, since my wife did the asking:). She was extremely outgoing and really made us feel special and at home. Really a nice beginning to the night. Our drinks arrived and the house chard was quite good and generously poured. My martini was excellent, one of my measures of a restaurant. No Beefeaters, alas, but I am pretty good friends with Tanqueray, though usually with tonic. We ordered salads and dinner and had a nice time visiting. The salads were upon us pretty quickly, especially considering how busy the place was. The salads where nicely composed and delicious. Entrees were all excellent and well priced, at least compared to were we come from, the mountain hamlet known as the Ski Capital of the East, where we have many nice restaurants, but pay a steep price for our dining experiences. I think the highest priced entree was $27 and there were items on offer for under $20. If $27 seems steep, have no fear, there are options like pizza and a burger which you could enjoy for far less. Some really interesting sounding appetizer/small plates are on the menu as well. Three of us had lobster ravioli, one surf and turf, and I had a flank steak with potato gratin that was superb. All of us really liked our meals. Way too full for desert. lf you are looking for a very nice dining experience with great drinks, great food, super nice staff, and an unstuffy, homey atmosphere, this is your place. read more
