Seafood
Seven seafood spots clear our bar. One of them is a James Beard Winner.
Eventide Oyster Co. carries the only national badge here, and it's Damn Good on our scale too, alongside Bite Into Maine, Lil Chippy, and Scales. No Delicious as F*ck yet in Portland seafood — this is a Damn Good town, not a headline town. Round it out with Five Islands Lobster Co, Street & Co, and The Shop by Island Creek Oysters for the Worth Trying tier. Seven spots, four of them worth planning a meal around.
