Question YOu are probably sick of answsering this question, but I still need to ask it. At least every other year I come to Maine for some alone time or on assignment. This September end I will be with friends and family who have asked me to find the best Lobster eating place in the state. I have told them that I sometimes eat at DiMillios in Portland and know very little else. The rest of my meals are taken at the college where I am a temp adjunct.
So I turn to you for help and and guidance and hope I can get an honest recommendation. I am turning to you, sir, to list a few restaurants or locations where my party will go away agreeing that Maine has the best in seafood.
Once again, help.
Thank you.
Answer Hi Ritzy,
Maine is a very large state and while I have had lobster in a few restaurants, my wife and I prefer to cook our own. I really dislike answering this question as it is really outside of my expertise, but if I had to recommend a restaurant to anyone for lobster, I would have to recommend the Harraseeket Inn in Freeport, ME. I have to caution you, however, as it will definitely be expensive. It is a very classy place (near LL Bean) and they take great pride in all the food they serve. I can truly vouch for the lobster, however, as it is all supplied by my stepson who is one of the largest and best lobstermen in the state.
