Simply exceptional food! I have never had seafood that was cooked so perfectly and so well-seasoned! We were on a short vacation and the first day after a long day at the beach we were a bit late for dinner and most restaurants were closing at 8. So my son found this place on our way to our hotel that way we would save some time. The menu looked healthy with a lot of great seafood dishes and since I eat mainly paleo, l was very interested! We reached around 7.20 and were greeted so warmly by the lady who was taking the orders. It’s a small place and is more like a takeout place with a few seats inside but two large picnic tables outdoors. We got one of the tables outside and our orders arrived pretty fast in less than 15 minutes! The food was as good as we had hoped for and more! I had ordered the seafood kebabs(the scallops, shrimp, haddock and salmon were cooked perfectly), my husband ordered the paella, my son got the lobster roll and my daughter the lobster mac and cheese. We all loved our dishes and also loved the special paprika seasoned french fries which comes with the kebabs and the lobster rolls. I also loved the housemade garlic mayo which I was told was dairy, egg free and nut free! That was perfect for me since I am on an AIP diet mostly and I had not had mayo in a long time! As we made our payment, we ended u chatting with the chef/owner and his wife(not sure?). They were really warm and wonderful and passionate about what they do! I highly recommend this place! One of the best seafood places in the New England area!

The people working there were amazing and nice. Their popular dish was really delicious. The place was super cozy and clean and the prices were definitely fair. I’d really recommend for those who visit Portland.

Man oh man! Absolutely delicious. I ordered the seafood paella and the smoked salmon bruschetta (my fave of the two) and enjoyed them both. It’s a small mom & pop spot with 3 tables inside and 2 benches outside. My friend ordered the kebab and the shrimp & salmon salad which she loved!

Blown away. As a paella lover, every time I drive by this place I’m always intrigued. Tonight we were finally in the area during dinner time and tried their seafood paella, salmon bruschetta, and grilled octopus salad. Everything was AMAZING. So fresh! Especially the vibrant salad greens and veggies! (Kale, peppers, asparagus, fresh dill) My partner and I were so full after splitting it all we had to take home some of the octopus salad!

My wife and I missed out on our trip to Spain in 2020 because of COVID-19. So we eventually decided to visit New England with our travel credits. The second we saw the name of this restaurant we knew we had to come.

Come here! Seriously. Forget about lobster rolls and get paella. Incredible flavors that dance on your tongue. I personally like my food seasoned, vs butter and mayo on everything, so this was a nice change. The octopus salad and ceviche was also equally amazing.
