The Porthole has received 4 stars from this week’s Eat & Run review in the Press Herald.
Bottom line: With its atmospheric location on the waterfront, just across from the Harbor Fish market, this would be a good spot to bring visitors, especially during good weather when you can eat out on the restaurant’s deck. But it’s also a good destination for locals to drop in for a quick bite, especially during the week when you’re looking for a low-key place where you don’t have to fight crowds.
