50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Falmouth

“The atmosphere at Dockside Grill is fantastic due to its being right on the water. You can get off your boat and go right up to the bar for a beer after being on the water.

However, part of me gets the feeling that Dockside lets a few things go because they know they have a fabulous location.
I felt the hostess, instead of being warm and friendly, was terrified of her job and of me. She needs some support around greeting guests with a smile.

I also felt the server could have been more friendly. She was nice enough, but pretty cool.

I went to the ladies' room. It smelled of pee. Yes, you have a great location, but when the bathroom smells of pee, I feel I am in a gas station and not a lovely restaurant on the water.

I had a wedge salad with blue cheese dressing and it was good.
My partner had a wrap which he loved. He also ordered the fish chowder which was very good but maybe too thick for my taste.
We do usually have great meals at Dockside Grill.“

“I ordered my so son’s first birthday smash cake here and couldn’t be happier with it! I asked if they could make it a golf ball and he said they would try, but weren’t sure they could do that (he said they’d make it golf theme if the ball wasn’t feasible and I was perfectly fine with that). They were able to make the golf ball and it came out better than I was hoping for! I was also blown away by how reasonable the cost was. Definitely recommend them for custom cakes!“

“I got pasta with meatballs tonight, and it was incredible! So much so there are no leftovers, and the portions are not small…there was a basil leaf in the sauce, and that is a sure sign this is homemade sauce. I’m already looking forward to my next time there, and it won’t be so long in between this round!“

“Friendly, great food, and fast service“

“The meal was delectable. The ambiance was lively, but the service left room for improvement. Our party consisted of seven individuals, and the food was served simultaneously, which was commendable. However, the server neglected to return to our table to inquire about our satisfaction or take additional drink orders. Despite this oversight, we acknowledge that such instances can occur and are willing to give the establishment another chance.“

“Unpretentious upscale pub. The food and service are always dependably good. Very much a comfortable spot for a good dinner. The staff is flexible about mixing entrees and side dishes. Reasonably priced. A good choice for a quick casual meal.“

“Impossibly wonderful food and vibe! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We had such a delicious meal at Scales! Everything was presented beautifully and tasted excellent. Service was on-point and the atmosphere is super chic. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone in the Portland area!“

“We popped into Central Provisions today on our stay in Portland and I was blown away by this restaurant. It was a very intimate, beautiful space with amazing flavor. Our server, Andy, made the experience. They were very kind and made dining with an allergy a breeze. Do not skip Central Provisions when you come to Portland!

Dietary restrictions: Their allergen menu is wildly helpful. It's color coded and makes it very clear what is and is not safe, and whether or not an allergen can be removed from the dish. I have a severe nut allergy and I felt completely safe eating here.“

“I dream of their roti and curry dipping sauce, and no visit is complete without the ginger tofu noodles.“

“We highly enjoyed our visit to the area and Eventide! Food was great - oysters and lobster roll were amazing, great atmosphere, and employee serving oysters gave us good info on area. We will definitely make another visit to Eventide from Austin, TX!“

“The ambiance and the food were amazing. The service could have been better, but I recognize they were slammed on a Saturday night. We had a reservation and still had to wait 25min for our table, however, there is a very nice full service bar/lounge area to wait so it wasn't a deal breaker. The food was incredible and by far one of the best meals we've had in a while. Will definitely be back.“

“Today, I enjoyed lunch with an old friend at Luke's Lobster, situated at the end of Portland Pier on the waterfront. Should you find yourself in Portland, I suggest visiting them; you will not be disappointed.“

“some of the best falafel I've ever had, hands down!“

“We brought our soccer team over for a team kick-off party and couldn't have picked a better spot. The staff was so friendly and excited to see us, the food/drinks were delicious, and all our families said it was the perfect spot to gather. We'll definitely be back!“

“The best breakfast I have ever had, and I own a breakfast restaurant 😂 Super friendly staff, well worth the wait ! If you don't try the hollandaise I will question all your life decisions. Blueberry Fleur Mimosa ... 12/10! Try this spot if you're in the area, we will travel back 3 hours just for brunch !“

“Awesome fries with lots of sauces“

“Upon landing in Portland, we were greeted by a Nor'easter, but our determination to savor a superior lobster roll remained unwavering. Highroller Lobster Co. exceeded our expectations, serving a delectable lobster roll accompanied by sublime old Bay seasoned fries and an extraordinary whoopie pie. Although we were unable to finish our meal, we gave it our best effort. The staff was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable.“

“We had dinner last night and it was excellent!!! Service was wonderful, drinks were perfect and the food was amazing. Highly recommend!“

“Went for Oyster Social/Happy Hour they do on Wednesdays after a local recommended I try…had a little bit of everything and some punch. I’m not easy to impress. It was DIVINE!!! Delicious fresh seafood, excellent quality, great drinks, just a very nice experience I wish I were local to attend every week! Highly recommend!“

“The chipotle lobster roll was great no spicy at all but a lot off lobster. Long line but they moved quickly. Will definitely come back“

“My husband is still talking about his burger! We love a good burger and Blazes fits the bill. Delicious, hot, fast and quality ingredients. Customer service was great!“

“Everything was delicious! Owner took special care making the gluten free dishes!“

“Some of the best beer in Southern Maine, always a ton on tap“

“just amazing in every way“

“Went there for New Years Eve at the new location. They told us it was going be at least a 45 minute wait and we were ok with that. Host took our phone number and added us on the wait list on his tablet. Took a seat out by the host stand and waited. Another couple came in about 15 minutes after us, also a party of two, and the same host told them it was going be a wait and they took a seat next to us. Even though we had been there 15 minutes longer and greeted by same host with tablet, he forgot about us and seated them first. Even though we were waiting right next to them and he looked right at us when he came to tell them to follow him to a table. We finally just got a seat at the bar. We ordered appetizers, two rounds of drinks and dinner. Again told it was going be a wait because kitchen was backed up. That was fine. Got our drinks and appetizers. Then my girlfriend’s entrée finally came out but they forgot to bring mine! I thought it would be out in a few minutes, but after 1o more minutes waiting for my food I finally inquired, and they had somehow forgotten my entrée. They comp’d one round of drinks. Love the new location. Love the food. But we chose the wrong night to go! I’ve never gone out to eat and ordered the food and had them forget to bring my entrée out.. By the time I got my dinner my girlfriend was done with her food. Just asked them to bag it for take-away. Still tipped 20% as I’ve worked twenty years in resturants. Kind of disappointed with New Years Eve dinner. Took the night off early to go have a nice meal and they forgot my meal!“

“i stopped in on my lunch break. the food was delicious. the service was amazing! i will be back“

“Brought some of your Maine State Lager home with me to Villa Rica Georgia. What a fantastic beer!!!“

“My girlfriend and I had a wonderful dinner on 2-15. We sat at the end of the sushi bar- it was a little tight when it got busy, but it’s definitely the best sushi place we’ve been to. Our server Chad was awesome and made us feel very welcome. I told a few friends and decided to write a review“

“This place is amazing. Very LGBTQ friendly, and wonderfully nice management.“

“As soon as you walk in the ambiance feels inviting and not overbearing for a popular restaurant in a central location. The service is attentive and genuine in wanting to create a well-rounded experience for the guests. I felt guided through the menu and confident in choosing the best items for my group and I. As for the food, spectacular. They've perfect the classics, simple goes a long way when you know how to create the perfect flavor profiles. Definitely end with something sweet as it helps balance out the palate before heading back into the real world. 10/10 will be back.“

“My husband and I had lunch here before an appointment nearby. This restaurant had delicious food. My husband ordered the Down east Ruben, which was made with deep fried haddock with Cole slaw piled high on the bun with melted cheese. He said it was delicious! I opted for the classic BLT. Again, the sandwich was delicious. The lettuce and tomatoes were fresh and ample bacon was piled on top. I watched a young man bus the tables. He was extremely thorough cleaning the tables and seating. He even washed the items on the table (salt & pepper shakers, ketchup and hot sauce bottles). This young man then set the tables for new customers. Being a bit of a clean freak, I appreciated this young man's work. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant.“

“Great food and friendly service! Love this place“

“The best in Portland. Great beer and wonderful employees. Cannot wait until they can distribute to Minnesota!!“

“Great tasting, healthy food. Lots of plant-based options and awesome service,“

“great experience from moment one. the host welcomed me into the cozy restaurant and escorted me upstairs to a table by the window. i ordered a shot of espresso and a mimosa that came out promptly. couldn’t decide between the cinnamon apple pancake or the lobster scramble so i got both and was glad i did; words can’t do them justice.“

“Alyssa was an awesome server, the food was excellent, and the setting was beautiful—if cloudy. We’ll be back!“

“Fantastic ramen and poke bowls.“

“Awesome place! We went for the first time yesterday, and we were not disappointed with the food and drinks! The 🦞 roll was one of the best that we’ve had. We ordered a cheese plate and oysters as well, and they were both delicious. Hidden gem tucked away in the Old Port! We will definitely be back again.“

“This place is a gem. Campesino coffee, puerco empanada, maduros, and yuca fries were sooo delicious. Such comfort food and warm welcoming service too. Valentina especially was sweet and had helpful recommendations and insights on the menu. Thank you!“

“everytime I come to Portland I try new restaurants and this place definitely is one of my favorites so far! great on a cold day“

“Where else can you get Belgian beers on tap and get threatened with violence by the server? Happened to me 8-13-23 4pm out on the deck. Never will I bring out-of-Towners there again.“

“Had a drink and oysters during happy hour and it was a great experience. Bartender Andy was so friendly and polite and gave some great recommendations for local spots to visit. Would definitely come regularly if I was a local.“
