11 Best American Restaurants in South Portland

“10/10. Beautiful location with an amazing menu. My 5 year old rates the clam chowder “1000 and some numbers out of ten”. Definitely recommend!“

“Very limited lunch menu but the chicken pesto pita pocket was delish. Ordinary shoestring fries followed a tasty appetizer of fried cauliflower. No regular ranch dressing for dipping available. Nothing intriguing enough for a repeat visit.“

“Every time I go to a new city I try to find a nice place to have a cigar and relax. This place is JUST the spot for that. You can have coffee or liquors depending on what you want with your cigar, and the people are lovely. Wonderful atmosphere and the perfect way to kick off a vacation.“

“We did take out the steak&cheese sandwich was excellent and I loved the fries“

“Love their variety of drink & food choices! I have dined here multiple times and have always had a great meal! Also love the atmosphere! You quickly forget that you are eating in a hotel restaurant!“

“Had a fabulous time with my friend. Food was hot and delicious and received in a timely manner. Waitress was informative and friendly, quick, funny, and kept the drinks full while balancing many tables as the place was booming for lunch. Kudos to the kitchen too for making our food the way it was ordered and they also kept up with the pace. Means there was great teamwork amongst the staff and I will definitely be going back. Thank you to all.“

“Was ok. The potato bun was yummy! Presentation really cute! But the veggie burger had no flavor..had with the elevation sauce, grilled onions, lettuce and tomato for extra flavor, I guess I had too much hope. But indeed hit the spot!! ☺️“

“Loved working with Q Street Diner! Very kind and professional while sharing her space during our service today. It’s not easy having to shut down the kitchen in a professional setting for cleaning, and we were met with kindness and coffee ☕️😁“

“Food good but way too slow, was freezing inside…. If prepared to sit you will enjoy…“

“Upon entry we were greeted by a man who opened the door for us, which is pretty unheard of in this day and age. We waited around a minute for the table, but the food came pretty quickly and it was delicious. I had the chicken parmesan over fettucine alfredo and would rate it an 8.5/10. The service was great and the overall vibe and atmosphere of the restaurant was good too. Easy to find parking and fairly priced food.“

“Happy to say tonight was a great night to go out to dinner. Upon arrival, the bartender was acting as host, server and over all cheer squad for the restaurant. We were greeted promptly as she was busy assisting a person picking up an order and seating another couple. We sat in the bar at a hightop. She followed us over with menus and asked us about drinks. Throughout our visit she was a checking in with a bubbly personality and vibrancy that was refreshing. Our food came out as ordered, which can be tricky with my dietary changes, and it was hot and delicious! She was Johnny on the spot with refills and smiling every time she came by. I couldn't remember her name but the receipt said Blake. If that's correct I give you props! Thanks for making a rainy night enjoyable 😉“
