Walked in at 855 pm, sorry about that! Staff was still friendly & welcoming. We sat at the bar, sipped on martinis w blue cheese stuffed olives, had bacon wrapped scallops (cooked perfectly w crisp bacon & tender scallops glazed w maple syrup), lazy lobster (deconstructed covered in butter), deep fried lobster (w an amazing maple cream dipping sauce), fries and brussel sprouts (roasted with a buttery cream sauce) AND took a blueberry crisp ala mode to go! All delicious! As we were leaving, the owner, Dan, came to ask how our dinner was and chatted with us about the restaurant’s background & its dedication to their customer’s experience being top tier, which it was! Absolutely recommend and we will be back next time in Portland

Good place for every occasion, beautiful view, excellent service, owner Mr DeMillo stopped by to our table to welcome us, that shows how much he cares about his customers. Mussels and lobster rolls were exceptionally delicious. I would definitely go back there. Don’t forget to take your parking ticket with you they validate it.

I would say you’re definitely going here for the ambiance and the experience of dining somewhere unique. The decor was very nice and the views are excellent. Our server was very kind, knowledgeable and attentive. The food was just okay. We came in around 4:30 and did appetizers, drinks and dessert. Steamed clams were very gritty. Not your normal, occasional grain of sand, but very much could’ve been cleaned better. Crab cakes were a hit with our party. Great variety of drinks. Desserts were very good- we did the blueberry cobbler and the mud pie.

Spectacular views because not only are you by the ocean you were on the ocean aboard a ship. The experience was truly unique. It’s just 15 minutes from the Portland Head light.
The decor was beautiful, richly decorated with nautical themes.
I ordered the bacon wrapped scallops tossed in maple syrup. Absolutely delicious.
Tip:
Do not let the fact that you have to pay to park scare you off, ask your hostess or waiter about validating your parking.

We enjoyed our meal & the atmosphere. We made reservations for the patio & were seated immediately. Haddock was amazing & tasted fresh. Service was great & our waitress checked in on us just enough times! Our only complaint were the side choices— side options were limited & hard to pair with their menu options.

Last night in Portland so wanted to end the vacation with a bang — this did not disappoint!
Eating on a boat with a fantastic ambiance and very light music in the background (but still able to hold a convo) helped create this experience even better! One of the best Loaded Wedge Salads I’ve had with the perfect amount of toppings (I always request dressing on the side as from previous experiences it can be overpowering); the Mixed Seafood Broil was perfectly cooked with the right amount of seasoned crumb toppings — the steamed asparagus side was very well-proportioned and worth the extra $
Would eat here again when in town and try more options from the menu! This should be a “must try” on your list of restaurants to hit up in Portland!

Absolutely LOVE DiMillo’s. It’s such a relaxing experience to be aboard and watching the activities and beautiful views of Casco Bay. The food is wonderful. I have tried several of the seafood offerings and enjoyed each one. My favorite is the pecan encrusted haddock. The waitstaff are friendly, knowledgeable and professional. And winter is “Locals Season “, with nice happy hour specials and a quieter atmosphere. We’re never disappointed with a visit here.

Friendly all around. The bartender was quite helpful reviving my cell phone. The food was delicious all around too! The bowl of lobster mac was amazing albeit a bit pricey $50 for the portion received however the amount of lobster in the mix was really good.

We did not have reservations, so we went to the bar area which had seats available. Within two minutes we were greeted and asked if we wanted any drinks. We got our drinks and she took our order. Within twenty minutes we received our food. Our food was delicious, I highly recommend ordering the cold lobster roll.
I suggest calling in to make a reservation.
Make sure you validate your parking ticket.
Restrooms were clean.

I recently visited this place during my day visit to Portland,ME and I loved coming here for dinner after a long day of city exploration. Their food is quite tasty and both the quality/quantity of food is satifying. One must try their Bacon-Wrapped scallops ,they are sooo good. Their fried fish sampler is also delicious and their lobster rolls too are amazing. Pricing seems fair and could be little expensive, but thats standard for a restaurant well known for seafood. I highly recommend coming here for dinner,worth the 2 hr drive from Boston!
