This place is good but expensive. Really great cocktails and friendly service. A perfect place to go out for a nice dinner.

Hot apple cider could be hotter but you should definitely try it.Freshly made every morning with local ingredients. The lobster roll with greens was a wise choice. It's official. The food here rocks.

Classic on-the-dock lobster spot. Sit at the bar and enjoy a cold beer, great views, and lobsters and fishes and other swimmy stuff.

Service issues have been worked out. Great oyster selection, terrific baked stuffed lobster and fried clams. Bravo! No wait at all on Sunday night of Labor Day weekend for an upstairs table outside.

Fantastic clam chowder. I still think I had better in Crystal City DC area but this right there with it. Trying the lobster roll as well. Good, if small local beer selection. Good wait staff.

Cocktail specials are $5 during Happy Hour, which runs from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m seven days a week.

Great if you want to cross off "eating lobster in Maine" off your list! Friendly staff, very efficient in all aspects and everything tastes super fresh and all extras are made in house.

The oysters are fantastic, but be prepared to wait for a LONG TIME. The place wasn't even 1/4 filled and 2 of us waited over and hour for oysters, pizza and 1 lobster.

Any of the fish, amazing!! Definitely one if our favorites.

Regular menu had some good classics. Specials menu is where the gourmet is at. Delicious.

The fried clam plate and seafood newberg.

It's newly reopened so they are still working out some kinks. Good place though, fun atmosphere.

Expensive, but delicious.

John's River oysters the best tasting,, but Dodge Cove's were HUGE.
Bill ODonnellOctober 4, 2014
Lobster poutine is awesome.
Michelle SMarch 31, 2015
Skip this place there are way better options near by. Black cod was overcooked and bland, lobster was like rubber. ..even the spinach was inedible. To top it off service sucked and prices are high.
Lauren IanuziAugust 19, 2013
if you go in near future, be prepared to wait a long time. being new, there are issues they need to work out. waited an over an hour to sit (we were told 30 mins) & 2 more hrs before we got entrees.

Calamari is amazing

Seafood and lobster
Mark PerlmutterAugust 17, 2014
Ridiculous. Quality of food and their price is well out of proportion to the extremely poor food service and below average presentation. Visit any other place in Portland.

The stuffed lobster was horrible. It was highly overpriced and tasted like mayo. The staff could not describe what was in their “stuffing.” This place is disappointing, go elsewhere.
Paige RogersApril 14, 2014
Great fish taco's!!!
mary shaneAugust 16, 2015
Very rude front house will never return. Made reservations and was placed in a cramped corner when half the tables were emply, and I wonder why
Jon DarveauJuly 2, 2015
My halibut was overcooked, clam chowder was just ok. You have better options
Lori SmithOctober 2, 2019
How can food so good be served by such rude people?
