docks seafood

i grew up in a fishing family in south portland, maine, my grandfather would filet haddock on his kitchen table, paper wrap it and then send me through the neighborhood to deliver. i worked for a seafood restaurant for many years where the seafood was incredibly fresh. i moved to limington and bay haven became our seafood restaurant. it's amazing and when we moved back to sopo it was surprising to find out there wasn't anything close to that. until docks! this summer we went there many times and the scallops never disappointed. they were big sea scallops and so sweet and tender! the portions are great and thefoodis so fresh and delicious. my husband always gets the fisherman's platter and there is always lots of leftovers. the staff is friendly and fun to chat with. support your local businessman and get a great meal at the same time.

the two customers below this must have been in the wrong place at the wrong time. docks seafood is the very best, and there are times i think he went out back and fished it himself. i have absolutely no complaints, thefoodis fresh and tasty. i have always found the service great and everybody there is always very pleasant. it's one of the better places to have seafood, i always recommend them to all my friends and not one of them have had any complaints. a big thumbs up!!!!!

soggyfoodand messed up orders. yuuuuuuck.. we ordered take out from there twice. the first time they gave my daughter calamari instead of chicken tenders. i had to tell her they were "crazy chicken" but she ate it. so no big deal.
when we ordered tonight, once again one meal was completely wrong.
not only that but everything we received (haddock, shrimp and fries) were really soggy and gross looking.
when we went back and complained, they gave us most of our money back but charged us $10.75 for my daughter's 2 chicken fingers and 2 rolls....
never going there again. ever.

poor quality, small quantity. no service. extra large shrimp lunch plate only a handful of shrimp. soggy and greasy, flimsy fries. several shells in crab salad roll so had to pick through to get them out before trying to eat. wet roll. ended up throwing most everything out. some things are fresh, some things frozen and thawed. they are overwhelmed and out of their league, seem to have high staff turnover. not as clean as most places. ken's place in scarborough on road heading out to pine point beach is much betterfoodand service. don't waste your money at docks, you'll be disappointed.

worstedfoodand service i have ever had..given it 5 chances...soooo done!

cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. for anyone who is looking for casual seafood in maine, this is the place. docks offers all the standard fried offerings (clams, shrimp, scallops, fish filets, etc) as well as all the usual varieties of lobster. in addition, they offer delicious baked/broiled dishes, chowders & bisque, healthy sides like baked potatoes, gluten-free options and yummy homemade desserts. they even have a fresh fish market (if you feel like cooking at home). thefoodis extremely fresh and prepared with skill. on one recent visit, i went with a party of 15 - one hour before closing. they got us seated and accommodated every order/request perfectly.

great seafood!. my wife & i visited went skiing last month and stopped in for dinner. we went back before leaving town. thefoodwas great both times. i highly recommend it.

freshfoodin a pleasant atmosphere, great prices!
