This place has fresh and tasty sea seafood. If you like oysters, they offer locally harvested oysters which I've heard are some of the best. Good location overlooking the waterfront.

My favorite Indian restaurant. Tucked away on Wharf Street, this is a great place to experience some far east flavor while roaming the Old Port.

This is a designer/organic pizza place. The location is great (on the water), but the wait is likely to be long. Their wood fired pizza is expensive but I have to say it's very delicious.

Though I have not yet been there, nearly anyone who has ever eaten at Fore Street said it was probably the best food in Portland. It's tough to get in, so make a reservation well in advance.
