Boone's Fish House and Oyster Room

“Can't praise the service, atmosphere, and food enough!! First, the hostess gave us options on where to sit and why. We chose the 2nd floor outside for the water views. Then, our waitress, Sage, was fantastic!!! She offered her suggestions, opinions, and fan favorites. We ended up getting mussels, raw oysters, and stuffed lobster. The flavor was unbelievable and as Sage stated, the stuffed lobster is like a seafood Thanksgiving dinner. She was not wrong!! This is a MUST stop if stopping in Portland. Would it be wrong to go back for dinner tonight too...?? It was that good!”

“What an amazing experience! We called and ordered two large lobsters to go for our sail boat trip, and the team went above and beyond. They prepared everything for us, including all the tools we needed (crackers and more), making it incredibly easy to enjoy our meal. The lobsters were absolutely delicious!! They were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. We had a blast and couldn’t have asked for a better Maine lobster experience. A special thank you to Lizzie, who made it all happen. She was incredibly helpful, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect for us. Lizzie is the best! Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Portland. We’ll definitely be back. 🦞😊”

“Great spot for outdoor dining- covered or roof top. Delicious food well prepared. Good drinks. The scallops app among the best scallops I have ever eaten. They should consider turning off their music when there is live music next door. Hard to listen to both at once.”

“If you're looking for an authentic taste of the Portland waterfront with a side of historic charm, Boone’s is a must-visit. Our recent work dinner here was a hit across the board—delivering the kind of quintessential Maine experience that makes a business trip feel like a vacation. We kicked things off with the Calamari and Scallops. The calamari was perfectly tender, but the inclusion of scallops in the appetizer mix elevated it beyond your standard pub fare. It was crisp, light, and disappeared from the table almost instantly. The lobster rolls were the highlight for the "purists" in our group. Packed with fresh, sweet local meat and minimal filler, they served as a perfect benchmark for Maine seafood. For those wanting the full experience, the 2lb lobster was a showstopper. It was impeccably steamed—retaining that natural briny sweetness—and served with all the classic fixings. What truly sets Boone’s apart is the vibe. Situated right on Custom House Wharf, the views are stunning, and the interior manages to be both upscale and ruggedly coastal. Despite being a busy night, the service was seamless; the staff was attentive without being hovering, making it an ideal spot for a professional group to relax and talk shop. Whether you're entertaining clients or just decompressing after a day of meetings, Boone’s delivers on its promise of fresh Atlantic flavors and genuine Maine hospitality.”

“Had reservations for dinner which was great. Waitress spot on. Good menu selection. Started off with the happy hour oysters which didn’t go too well. Not regular oysters and several were bad. Waitress and chef exchanged for some of their regular ones which were very good. Got the app scallops and they were big and very good! Shared the mussels and loved the Dijon sauce very good!”
