Restaurants in Saco

“Golden Rooster offers excellent service, great food, friendly atmosphere! They are very allergy friendly!! Marissa is wonderful, always friendly & helpful! Marissa is willing to go above and beyond when serving people with allergies! Definitely recommend the restaurant! Stop by and say hello! Ask for Marissa.”

“We stopped in while on vacation to do some market research, as we work at a cidery/brewery. The selection was outstanding. I stuck to the sours (the orange soda was a fave) but the stouts were top notch as well!! A very relaxed atmosphere and great ambiance. Week will definitely be back!”

“Can't say enough great things about this place. All the staff are welcoming, friendly, and great at their jobs. The drinks are all delicious and not overpriced like most bars in the Portland area. The vibe is immaculate, and they have a bunch of old school game systems (I will always be at the N64 table). The bar itself is super unique and quirky. AND they give you free popcorn and nachos. If anyone tells you anything negative about Up & Up, they're a terrible person and not to be trusted.”

“Absolutely incredible food and drinks, great atmosphere, and wonderful staff!”

“Friendly people, good music and delicious food!”

“Mother of god this place has it's shit together.. We ordered the duck pad Thai, summer rolls, rangoons and dumplings. Everything was spectacular, fresh fresh fresh... I'll be back.....”

“One of my favorite food establishments in Maine. Both locations have such amazingly consistent quality food, drinks and service. I am beyond excited everytime I am in the area and have the opportunity to have a meal here. I cant talk this place up enough! Please stop in and grab a bite”

“Traditions Italian restaurant was a highlight of our 3 day stay in Old Orchard Beach. We discovered them by a Google map search. The host was always welcoming guests, Tidying up the bar seating, making the place look fabulous and was always smiling and pleasant. Our waitress was also the best! She was very efficient with a sense of humor. In the back are people polishing silverware and glasses. They really care about putting forth their very best. Eggplant and veal parmesan were delicious. A wonderful glass of Chianti too. The restaurant is fairly small, nice and cozy. Every table was full, at all times, on a Wednesday night! We will definitely return when back in OOB.”

“Great place! Clean, friendly, lots of cool pinball machines both new and old. We were only able to stop in for a bit while visiting the area, but we'll be back for sure again sometime :)”

“Go elsewhere. Way overpriced for food that is not good. The service is subpar and look up past Health violations and other violations.”

“My experience here was good. It's a charming spot downtown. Had a loaded steak & and cheese, and it was great. I had a nice conversation with the owner. Definitely will be back!”

“My favorite pit stop when hungry at any hour”

“The food was fantastic! 10/10 definitely recommend! ⭐️”

“I have going to Lucky loggers for 30+ years . They have the Friendliest waitresses in town along with the best breakfast in town.”

“Great place to grab breakfast sandwiches and a coffee/tea/etc! Everything I’ve tried has been delicious! The vibe is great, plenty of seating including outdoor and indoor options. Plus, they have some cute merchandise from local artists at the front to purchase if desired. I highly suggest going!”

“Sara and her team are always on time, extra communicative, patient, and friendly! Reschedules sometimes happen due to sick kids and the weather, but she always gets us back on the schedule quickly. With kids and pets and an at-home business, Green Sweet is really a lifeline for us here.”

“We visited July 7 for the first time. The ice cream was great (can't go wrong with Shaker Park Pond) but the interior and layout is lovely and we melet Melissa, the owner, who was incredibly friendly. We'll go back for fancy coffee (and more ice cream) for certain!!”

“Great breakfast sandwiches, freshly made, bread was amazing. Great coffee and almond croissant was delicious. I highly recommend visiting this bake shop.”

“We were in the area on vacation and decided to give this place a try since we love sushi. For the cost it was a utter disappointment. For $8 you get a chewy Alaska roll for ants with avocado that looks like it was sitting around for a week. When we ordered in person they told us 20 min. We came back after 20 min and they seemed to have forgotten who I was and asked me how they could help me. They then told me 10 more min so I left and came back after 10 min. Once again they forgot who I was, and after I reminded them they told me 5 more min. I then left and came back after 7 min. At least they remembered me that time because they quickly rushed to finish my order. Unless if you want to feel like a different person each time you have to come back to remind them about your order and you want to go to bed hungry, then I would suggest not going here. PS the sushi was bland and just not done well.”

“Love sitting outside and looking out at the Saco River. great food and drinks and the service is quick.”

“I've visited this wine bar twice now, and each experience has been outstanding. Kim and Sonny are incredible hosts who truly know their wines. Their warm and welcoming nature makes you feel right at home. Highly recommended!!”

“Aroma Joe's never disappoints

Dietary restrictions: Vegan Beyond breakfast sandwich and they have all the alternatives for milk for your coffee and will check for you if there is dairy in any other ingredients!”

“i went into there for my first time today, my experience was great i wanted to try the dubai chocolate and ended up getting 2 sandwiches, which were amazing and fresh and the staff are super warm and welcoming 10/10 would recommend!!”

“The best blizzards in southern Maine are at the Saco DQ, love that they use whole M&M’s in their blizzards instead of being all chopped up. Also they give plenty of treats in the blizzards and aren’t skimpy like other DQ’s I have been to.”

“I'm very happy the taste and quality remain the same since the new owners took over. Great job!”

“I had the 2 chili dogs with Chips and soda. I ordered them with cheese and cooked onions. They are, in my opinion, the BEST chilis dogs in the area, the chili is homemade and not salty or greasy. It was suggested that I use extra napkins, they gave me some, they definitely did not skimp on the chili or cheese, the napkins were a good idea. Nice people!”

“Feels like a neighborhood place with all the right elements, large bar, pool room, patio, pleasant bartender; but the clientele is a little too ghetto. Not somewhere you'd want to take a date for a nightcap.”

“Had a great lunch there today. Friendly service and I could not believe that chicken croquettes were on the menu.!! they were clearly homemade and they were amazing. Not 24 hours before had I posted on my Facebook that it had been 40 years and that I missed my mother making them for us and I could not find them anywhere. And lo and behold just a random stop at a nice diner I had never been to and I got to have a taste of my youth ! Will definitely be back the next time I’m in the area!”

“i was there last night (friday PM) you guys were super busy with take out. i as correctly informed of the long cook time for my pizzas on the phone by "Joe R" and i'm assuming Joe was also the young man at the register taking cash and fielding so many complaints last night. he was calm apologetic and always kept a smile even when more than one customer berated him about the long wait times. i just wanted to say he handled everything so well and took far more bad behavior than he should ever have to deal with from the public. keep up the great work Joe. i'm so sorry so many "adults" are so very rude.”

“Order food and non-alcoholic drinks at the counter and have a seat. The server will be around to pick up your ticket.

Server brought our beverages quickly and the food arrived piping hot and fresh. We were told it may be a long wait (slightly busy) but it was like 5-10 minutes tops.

The Food: Warm lobster roll with melted butter, sweet potato fries and a side of slaw and a cup of the most delicious lobster bisque!! We shared and it was the perfect amount. Clean plate award!! We weren’t overly starving so sharing was perfect. About $55 for our meal. While that may be pricey to some, I mean… it’s fresh caught lobster. And we shared and it was the perfect amount for our hunger level.

Overall, it was great. The food was top notch. If you’re looking for fine dining, this isn’t it. But, the food was awesome. I love supporting family owned businesses. Definitely would recommend.”

“My boys really like ihop they’re having fun and enjoying the food”
