Fore Street Restaurant

We have loved this place on prior visits, but completely lucked out yesterday in getting a walk-in table due to a cancellation on a blustery evening. My fiance enjoyed what she felt were the biggest, best mussels she ever had. My half-chicken had a great smoky taste. The cornbread on a small skillet had corn on it. The chocolate cake was terrific. Fore may be New England's best restaurant.

Fore Street is an EXPERIENCE! It provides elevated food from land, air and sea. There is something for everyone. Their food and dining experience was well worth the wait. I would recommend making reservations far in advance. Everything was cooked to perfection starting with bread (Standard Baking Co.) and ending with the Key Like Pie. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. I would highly recommend Fire Street for a date night or special occasion. Also, check their sister locations of Scales and Street & Co.!

When I told my coworker I was visiting Portland for the first time they told me I needed to make sure to visit Fore Street. Per their instructions I went online the same day to make reservations and saw that they were full. The website suggests walk-ins are able to be accommodated starting 5pm. Luckily we were able to be seated within two hours (for a Sunday night that’s pretty great!). The staff was incredibly friendly, considerate of allergies, and informative of menu items. The food was amazing, unfortunately I nor the photos can do it justice. You’re better off going and seeing for yourself.

Amazing experience at the Fore Street Restaurant. Great selection of whiskeys, scotch and beer. Service was excellent and their wood fired chicken is probably the best chicken I've had in my life! I would make the trip up to Portland just for that chicken! Cannot go wrong with their seafood as well, the mussels and halibut are all very good.

Great atmosphere, and our pink haired server (sorry don't know her name) was phenomenal! Great attitude and always happy!! The only issue was that our main course was lukewarm ☹....and the side dishes on the plate was cold. I assume that both of our plates were sitting for about 10 to 15 minutes before coming to our table. Other than that the appetizer, drinks and dessert were delicious.
