Ordered the fried haddock sandwich too. Soup arrived with steam (before the spoons to eat it came) but the soup was actually not that hot when we tasted it. We had to wait for spoons. The bowl of lobster bisque was $34, which was a conscious decision for us to order - because that's expensive. (A cup is$20.) The lobster bisque had no flavor. The salt, pepper and lemon we added ourselves helped but for $34, it should be amazing. It cooled off super quickly and was room temperature within 3 minutes and in 8 minutes or so, cold. Which means it wasn't truly heated through and through to start. We regret ordering it. The fried haddock sandwich had zero flavor. None. Not salt, not pepper. The fries and Heinz ketchup had the most flavor of anything on our table. When the sandwich came we asked for another plate (we were sharing it), which never came. At one point, the waitress came over and asked how everything was. I replied, "Eh, alright." She said "Okay!" and walked away. Disappointing since, budget-wise, we are eating out one meal a day of this trip and that was the experience (and lack of flavor) we had. $66 including tip. Such a waste. Sorry to say....but skip this place.

To start with, this is the same Dry Dock restaurant I reviewed in 2023 - sort of! It is actually…read morethe same owners but in a larger space. We learned of it from locals and decided to give it a try. It was a bit rocky of a start, someone didn't really know that we were there, but when we asked we had service recovery that was off the charts. We had a very nice Chardonnay. and because of our initial wait we received the cajun shrimp appetizer that was absolutely incredible and served with homemade chipotle cocktail sauce - so good and perfect with the wine. I then followed that with an order of chicken wings that came with buffalo sauce and blue cheese, Wayne had the fettuccine Alfredo that was also excellent. Although no longer within the blues festival grounds, we will totally add it to next year's plan!

I ordered the Almighty Fisherman's Platter with fried scallops, haddock, whole belly clams, and shrimp. Everything was fresh, hot, and cooked just right. The Neil's Bourbon Salmon was also excellent and definitely worth ordering. You can't beat sitting overlooking Rockland Harbor while you eat. It's got that laid-back, authentic Maine waterfront feel that so many people come here looking for. The service was friendly, the food came out quickly, and I honestly don't have a single complaint. If you're in Rockland and craving fresh seafood, I'd definitely recommend stopping at Hill's. Great food, beautiful harbor views, and a true taste of Maine. We'll definitely be back!

I ordered: Fra Diavolo Mussels.. Garlic, shallots, tomatoes, spicy marinara, crostini Add linguini So good. This one is spicy! I am a fan of spicy, but not super spicy. This was a good warm spicy. Mussels were smaller but had good flavor. The linguini had soaked up the sauce/broth. Perfect. For Dinner He had the twin lobster dinner. He said he was glad he had both 2 1.5 lb lobsters, he was hungry. I ordered the seafood risotto I should've ordered the Mussels again. The risotto was very thick and rich. I felt like the overwhelming flavor was butter. I am not a big "butter" fan and I felt like it had no other flavors. There were 3 nice scallops & 3 big shrimp. They were tasty. We also tried the lobster Rangoon. They had nice flavor inside, but the extorted were a little over friend. That kind of took over the flavor of the inside. We didn't wait long for tables. We asked for first available for a walk in for dinner. Service was good both times we are here. Very sweet girls.

They have a few parking spots and some street parking available nearby too. It's a spot that you order at the counter and get a number and can enjoy either an indoor or outdoor table and wait for the food to be delivered. We enjoyed a table outside in a perfect shaded area on a beautiful day. Inside was a perfect rustic and homey vibe with some live music during our visit. Both inside and out were popular choices and we had a little line before ordering but minimal wait. Food wise my I got a lobster cilantro and lime lobster roll, while my wife got a Lemon Dill Lobster roll (both currently $30 market price). We split a large basket of fries and could not pass up splitting a current special of Homemade Blueberry Bread Pudding with Lemon Glaze. We know we made good choices when the worker taking our order was telling use we made the perfect choice of our food spread. The lobster rolls were tasty and included a good amount of lobster to them! Fries were crispy and only could have used a touch more salt and finally the bread pudding was amazing and the perfect bite to finish our meal! What a fantastic spot worth seeking out! I know even as Maine locals my wife and I would seek this spot out again. A must try if you are in the area.
