“Arrived early for a meal at the bar. Bartender was friendly, knowledgeable and his drinks were outstanding. Food service however was the slowest I’ve experienced in a very long time in this region. Took well over an hour to be served our entrees which were not out of the ordinary complicated meals to prepare. Inevitably the food was very good but attention to timing by kitchen staff clearly needs to be addressed.“

“We sat next to the window overlooking the bay. The drinks were fresh and balanced. Our waitress was very attentive and timely.Half of our group are gluten free and the menu was full of choices for us! Very refreshing... we tried the Crab cake, fried calamari and fisherman's platter. All the fish was fresh, no heavy grease taste and light! I would highly recommend Saltwater Grill.“

“First time being here, and I went with a friend. Atmosphere was pretty cozy, I liked the color choice for the walls. It gave the restaurant warm/friendly vibes. They were able to seat us immediately, as we went at a wierd time [like late lunch very early supper time] so it wasn't busy at all. Our waitress was attentive without over doing it. The food was good, we did end up asking for thai chili flakes to make it a bit spicier. But it was still flavorful without it. Averaged about $25-30 per person.The only bad thing I will say is that I was disappointed with the Strawberry milk tea. I could tell they used a Strawberry syrup for it and it was a bit too sweet for what I was expecting. Still good, just not what was expected.Parking: They have signs indicating for ruby Thailand customers only. It's a small parking lot, but it has enough space.“

“A few days ago, my teenage son and I ate at Docks Seafood for a late lunch. We were thoroughly pleased with our entire experience and had to share!I ordered the haddock sandwich and fries. Yum! Yum! My son ordered the haddock nuggets and fries. We both loved our meals. Everything came out fresh, flavorful and hot. I ate every single thing on my plate. The piece of haddock was huge and served on a lightly toasted bun. It was pure bliss. Their homemade tarter sauce goes perfectly with their seafood. I just couldn't stop eating their french fries. They were perfectly salted.My son loved his haddock nuggets. It's always great to see him eat food that he loves. Our waitress was awesome and she was heavily rewarded for all her awesomeness.We can't wait to go back to Docks Seafood. We left with a baked item for dessert because we were too full from our meal to eat anymore. It was a whoopie pie. Soooo good!Also, the owner came to our table to talk to us and he was super sweet. ?Kid-friendliness: My two kiddos (ages 12 and 15) love the menu options. There's something for everyone.“

“Amazing mexican food! I’m from NYC, and have had really good mexican food/birria tacos and this place lived up to the hype. The cheese dip was also amazing!! My only complaint was that there should have been more chips for the amount of cheese + the salsa. But it was still delicious and fresh. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and would definitely order again when I’m in the area.“

“The wings hold their own to anything in Portland, seriously so good. Atmosphere is so relaxing, and the TV's play clips of Thai street food being made which absolutely rules. Service is also awesome, super efficient and more than friendly. Get the crunchy fried chicken with garlic glaze, it's bananas.“

“Valentine's Dinner was a sweet surprise & So Po's best at the Bridgeway Restaurant. Dinner was cooked to perfection. Great...actually the best in the greater Portland area calamari with a delightful dipping sauce! When the waiter says "Fresh" it's fresh seafood sourced locally! Vegetables were cooked to perfection not over cooked. Wine Splits were affordable & excellent. I loved our experience & will be returning for many occasions including taking the grandchildren there. I like supporting local entrepreneurs too.“
