best restaraunt

I will be in Portland Maine in June with my mom and sister. Looking for the best places to get good seafood. Thanks!

You undoubtedly will get several answers, all of which will identify good places (the real challenge in Portland is to find a bad meal). For seafood, we like Street %26amp; Company, which specializes in seafood. Fore Street also has a wide variety of seafood dishes. DeMillo%26#39;s is the classic lobster place.

If you%26#39;re lookling for just plain casual -- places where the emphasis is on the food rather than the atmosphere, The Chowder House (near the Casco Bay Ferry Terminal) and Becky%26#39;s Diner are the place many of the ';locals'; go. Not a thing fancy or pretentious about either of them -- you%26#39;ll see everyone from the working-class fishermen from the waterfront to the attorney%26#39;s from the US Customs House....but the food is good and prices reasonable.

Wow, what a question!!!! There are probably a thousand answers.

If you could narrow down what you are looking for, we can give you better advice. One could eat seafood here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Lobster, eaten at a picnic table with the surf crashing around you? The Lobster Shack in Cape Elizabeth (bring your own beer or wine).

Upscale seafood in a bistro atmosphere? Street %26amp; Company on Wharf Street (note: while this is a great, fine-dining restaurant, it is small and can thus be a bit loud).

Seafood with one of the best views in Portland? DiMillos Floating Restaurant. (the place is a true institution, and does a fine job on the basics---don%26#39;t expect/order anything esoteric).

There are chowder houses, there are holes-in-the-wall (the Friday fried-fish all-you-can-eat special at the Porthole is a local favourite).

We promise, you will not go hungry!

Lunch - DiMmillo%26#39;s as much for the view.

Dinner - Street and Company

Street and Co. No questions asked on that one!
