12 Best American Restaurants in South Portland

“My husband and I ate lunch there on a Friday afternoon and it was the best experience in a long time. the food and drinks were amazing. Our server was a peach and the rest of the staff so accomodating. The weather was spectacular, warm and breezy. We fell in love and will be back maybe for dinner and the nighttime experience.“

“We had 2 experiences at this amazing restaurant in 1 weekend. First was a delicious lunch out on the deck on a sunny Thursday in October. Delightful mussels and a MOJO pork sandwich for him. Saturday was the wedding and it was perfect! From the food to the service to the fabulous weather, we could not have asked for anything more! It was exactly what our daughter envisioned, small, personnel and planned inside of 8 weeks! Stephanie was so accommodating and made sure everything was perfect. The food and drinks were enjoyed by all, but the oysters were particularly incredible straight from the Darmariscotta River. The location offered beautiful views, plenty of parking and a relaxing environment. Highly recommend for small gatherings and events. Thank you North43!“

“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.“

“The best combination of food and shopping !“

“Take my review with a grain of salt because apparently I don't like lobster. There was plenty in the lobster roll, I'm just not a fan. He got a haddock sandwich and said it was meh. We won trivia night, so have to eat there tomorrow and will update review.“

“we stayed at the hotel for a few days. the bar was fantastic with an amazing cocktail list. we had the farmers board and it was great! super fresh and generous portion. we came back later to have dinner in the restaurant. the lobster bisque and seafood chowder were both excellent. to be honest we were both disappointed in our meals. I had the "24 hour" blue cheese torched short rib. it just had a few crumbles of blue cheese sprinkled on top so that was disappointing . the short rib itself was very good but there was way too much sauce on it as it was very strong. the potatoes and diced veggies were very good. my husband had the crab crusted haddock and it was far from crab crusted so that was disappointing as well. the fish was very bland and had 2 crab cakes set on top of it. it was ashame because everything else was very good. I'd give it another try but would probably just do starters and maybe try a sandwich. the enttees were largely misrepresented. they have a very impressive drink list and that would bring us back!“

“Traveling the roads of the east coast of the United States we stopped at this place to eat on the recommendation of Google maps and it really did not disappoint. The delicious food, the super cozy cowboy-style place, Lizzie's service was impeccable. Without a doubt widely recommended if you like a good steak house“

“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!! ☺️“

“Good food. Go with the home fries. Hash browns are deep fried“

“The menu pictures and food brought to our table were of no comparison. Food itself was mediocre at best. For example...the brisket sandwich was a thin grilled cheese with a few pieces of meat...so underwhelming. The turkey dinner...well..the turkey was of the pressed luncheon kind...again...disappointed. Do not, I repeat, do not order the coffee...wet socks...wet. socks.“

“Wonderful staff, top-notch management, and great food! I come here often and I'm pleased to say that I've only had excellent experiences with the service and the food. Some of our regular go-to choices are: Spinach and Artichoke dip, Chips & Salsa, Boneless Wings, Quesadillas, and Burgers (I like the bacon cheeseburger and my boyfriend likes the quesadilla burger). You really can't go wrong. The food consistently comes out quickly and is always hot! Highly recommend!“

“Wonderful and tasty salad bowls that actually have a generous amount of nutritional vegetables and grains. Sure the sauce has some sugar but when it comes to restaurant food this place is very healthy.

It's good food too.“
