Lounges in Portland, ME

“Some of us don't get there often. 2 hours away. Visit the FB page for updates. appreciate the pictures of the dancers. Wish there were more & with names, so when I get there, I know which ones I'm looking for. I know it's a better night for me when Missy is tending bar.“

“I travel to Portland a few times a month and we always stay at the Westin. Mainly because they have a fantastic indoor rooftop bar. Rasheed is their bartender and he is absolutely PHENOMENAL! He’s also from Boston and greets us with a kind, friendly atmosphere always. Even when other wait staff is struggling to keep up with the demand, he goes above and beyond for customers here. He’s always running around but still carves out time to chat with us to make us feel important. Props to Rasheed and host Adam for being so great! We are so grateful for your hospitality.“

“What a great find! We were familiar with the hotel's outdoor restaurant but had never dined inside The Armory before. We sat at the bar, although there is table seating as well. In fact, we enjoyed ourselves so much we went back a second night! Staff was wonderful! Warm and engaging, but never overbearing. Shout out to bartenders Maddie and Jackie, and to the chefs, who delivered delicious meals both nights. The Caesar salad was just perfect; the best we've had in a long time. Appetizers were generous and a cut above normal starters. Salmon was cooked to perfection the first night by chef Andy. Shrimp and duck were top notch the next night and chef George even came out to check on us and discuss his flavors. We will definitely be dining at The Armory again!“

“Todd in the back lounge is the kindest, most talented bartender around. His cocktails are top notch and he is completely dedicated to his guests’ experience. We spend a lot of time at the Press Hotel and have personally witnessed him treating every guest with respect, class and above and beyond service.“

“Great venue, great staff. 10/10 would go every night!“

“Great music!!! The staff was friendly and dancers were respectful for the most part.“

“I LOVE that DTL is requiring proof of vaccines to enter!! Keep up the great work!! I prefer to not drink/dine in the company of antivaxxers :)“

“Went here with my wife and kids (kids eat free). Good food for adults—my wife had the chickpea salad with sirloin; I enjoyed the crab cakes and beer. My kids had the pizza. The food was very good, and the service great. While I’m sure you can find a fancier place in town, this is a good environment for kids, affordable, and upscale food.“

“I am sure Councilman Dion and Mrs Dion were just having an off night - my wife and Granddaughter and I had dinner on Friday night and my veal parmigiana was awesome and my wife’s asparagus and Gorgonzola ravioli was as great ! Jim our waiter must have lit the table candle 50 times for my granddaughter to keep blowing it out ! Brunos rocks !“

“Fantastic menu for Maine Restaurant Week! We enjoyed every bite of food, and the servers and bartenders were warm, friendly, and attentive. Can’t wait to go back!“
