DiMillo's On the Water

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!

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.

I don't think you can go very wrong at DiMillo's. We had good drinks, and some amazing food. Why only 4 - Stars, ..?.. Well, their lobster stew is to die for, ... the onion rings - do NOT order for just one person, and I do not "like" onion rings, but these are great! The wedge salad was among the very best we've had, ... the 4-stars, ... I am a crab cake aficionado, .. their crab cakes were taken over by the flavor of bell peppers. FAIL!! Bell peppers have little to no business in a crab cake. Crab is a relatively delicate flavor granting people a lovely sweetness that interweaves with other delicate flavors that meld in a wonderful blend of deliciousness. Bell peppers are appropriate to cover up unwelcome flavors in all sorts of foods and should not be the salient flavor in such an expensive offering as crab cakes. Service was very good. Even the owner, Mr. DiMillo stopped by. You will enjoy your experience at DiMillo's. [Avoid the crab cakes].
