The food was amazing. Menu changes daily which is incredible give the menu selection. Need reservations for sure. Super busy, enjoyable atmosphere on a Saturday. Servers space out the meal nicely, are helpful with suggestions and will let you linger and enjoy your meal. Cocktails were just OK. Wine selection was varied and good. Will definitely go back!

It was our first time visiting Portland and Fore Street has been on my top list. Talk about great hospitality, we were reserved for the bar and I mentioned I prefer the main dining room if possible and they made it happen! Big thanks to David! Our server, Georgia was very lovely and professional. We had a great night and her wine recommendation was superb. They do change their menu every day which makes it special and they only get it from local purveyors. If you’re visiting Portland don’t miss this gem!

This place is SUPER, with open-kitchen. You need to reserve your table, however you can just walk there at 5 and get access to one of the 6 tables that are reserved only for walks-in. Those table are in a very well decorated room which is adjacent to the main dining room. Food was excellent, service was very attentive, atmosphere was great! We had a stroller and our 8 months old and they were very nice giving us enough space to keep the stroller close to the table.. this is VERY important, because the next day in their sister restaurant Street & CO the menager wasn’t that caring and asked us to fold the stroller and leave it very far away from our table (in the bar area), and when you have a 8 moths old you DO NEED the stroller available at all time. Next time in Portland I will be back to Fore Street an amazing experience in an amazing restaurant! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Squid
Our waiter Greg was wonderful. The mussels were the best mussels I've ever had. The pork, Shepherds pie and haddock were all delicious. I highly recommend coming here. They allow walk-ins, but I am glad we had a reservation. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Our favorite meal during our trip to Maine in August! We were recommended this restaurant from a couple that we met at the airport. You really need a reservation so without one, we got there right when it opened for dinner service hoping to be able to snag something, we were able to sit at the bar, which was great! Our meal was fantastic and the atmosphere is amazing and service is excellent!
