This place has fresh and tasty sea seafood. If you like oysters, they offer locally harvested oysters which I've heard are some of the best. Good location overlooking the waterfront.

If you are looking for culinary adventure, this is your place. I've never seen a funkier menu or decor. Prices are really good and the flavors are great. Try the fried pickles!

My favorite Indian restaurant. Tucked away on Wharf Street, this is a great place to experience some far east flavor while roaming the Old Port.

This is a designer/organic pizza place. The location is great (on the water), but the wait is likely to be long. Their wood fired pizza is expensive but I have to say it's very delicious.

If you want some seafood, I really recommend this place. Outdoor seating is a great thing when you are eating a lobster. They sometimes have live music.
