I did not like my burger, it was wayyyy to salty, and I don’t even think it was the patty that the salt was coming from. I got the regular clssIdk maybe it was just an off burger but I don’t not finish it and ate about four bites. My friend got a friend chicken sandwich and was a big fan.

Very yummy, kitchen was open late thankfully as went in after a Mariners game. I had an amazing salad with mixed spring mix, grilled chicken, pepitas. Alples and a phenomenal cinnamon vinaigrette. The others had burgers and a reuben. They said there's were delicious. We are in the over 40 crowd and I will say that when we went in at 10pm it was DARK in there - like can't read a menu dark so yep- we were the buddy duddies using our cel phones as flashlights. Food was awesome - would definately eat there again

Really sad about this place. Never in my two decades of eating tofu have I been to a place where the tofu was not available vegan. Major bummer. I hope they will cater to more dietary needs.

Always a standby for lunch or late dinner (for good reason). But do not sell em short!!! The food (and fries) are legendary and the staff is a 10/10. Great TVs for the sports fan in your life.

Went there after a hockey game @ Cross Arena about 9. Ordered burgers and fries. Hot, tasty fries &black and blue burger was smothered in flavors! The smashed double burger was a brust of flavor at each bite. Will be going

What I appreciate is being able to have a meal like it's home cooked. My favorite hands down, the deliciousness that is their creamy, luscious Polenta. I can't rave enough about the fork tender short rib.Cocktails and Service are top notch.

Nosh continues to provide nouveau vibes and a bright bar experience with particularly delicious margaritas. Came in for a few bites with lunch. Lot's of appetizer choices, and the prices won't melt your eyeballs. Worth a try. Pricing at 2 adults. Included are fried dill pickles and lobster Rangoons.Vegetarian options: Menu options have quite a few options.Dietary restrictions: They are able to accommodateParking: Portland, ME uses a pay by plate or android/IOS pay aa you park, so you don't have to dig for change. I recommend finding a paid parking garage because Portland is VERY busy.Kid-friendliness: Mac and cheese and other items. Very friendly staff.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, no step up at door entry, more accessible than most.

We had a great experience at Nosh! Our server was great and very attentive. There were plenty of vegetarian options, including the delicious poutine which is meatless by default (mushrooms + vegetable gravy).The cocktails here are excellent, I recommend trying the Bees Knees.

The guys were super nice and the dishes were delish. For tacos and beer for two our bill was very reasonable. The veggie and fish were my favorite. Both very flavorful and a great texture on the fish. Their tortillas are corn so also naturally gluten free! Also, as California natives we found the salsa excellent!

Nosh used to be a one of a kind establishment. Somewhere I would go for snazzy burgers, good beer, and delicious bacon dusted fries. It stood out. Somewhere along they line, they cut their menu to nearly a 3rd of its prior glory and changed from big juicy patties to smashburgers and from thick warm steak fries dusted with bacon and served with elite side sauces to ordinary fries with the copy pasted +$2 for Parmesan truffle fries. Their beer menu has also been gutted.I asked the waitress about the shift and apparently it was a change of ownership as their sales weren’t high enough.Frankly, I am beyond devastated. This place has become another boxed up Buzz Lightyear on the proverbial toy store wall and there seems to be no sign of intelligent life left in the kitchen.I will say the service is MUCH improved as are the wait times. The service was kind and enthusiastic and I wish them all very well and our tip reflected the good quality of their service. We got both of their burgers and the chicken sandwich with a draught IPA, a canned brown Ale, and their penicillin cocktail. However, for $94 before tip and a literal 60% drop off in quality, we will never be coming back. There are better places to get smash burgers and better places to go get the thick juicy burgers they once ruled the town with. Rest in Peace to the Nosh I once knew.
