Bartenders were amazing, super friendly. The food was slow to come out. It was good, but not as amazing as the reviews made us believe it would be.

Ambiance was nice; it's a ferry converted into a restaurant.

A-OK restaurant that gives you plenty of beautiful views (if you are sitting outside) and good food.<br><br>Reading other reviews, I could see how problems with long waits could be a problem. My visit here was in between lunch and dinner, so that wasn't a problem for me personally.<br><br>As expected, DiMillo's on the Water has a seafood-heavy menu. A non-fish eater myself, I did manage to the completely serviceable Black Angus Cheeseburger on the menu.

Portland, ME, is my home town and I spent many a year working in the hotel industry. Visitors would always ask where the best place in town was for that quintessential Maine lobster experience. So, here's the thing... DiMillo's is on the waterfront, as are many other great Maine seafood joints. It's pretty hard to screw up lobster when the catch comes in daily from the boat at the next pier over. However, if you want Maine maritime dinner on the water, literally on the water (DiMillo's is a floating restaurant, a former NY Ferry boat if I have my history correct), there are countless other lobster shacks that in my opinion serve up a better lobster. If you want atmosphere, you go to DiMillo's and pay a few bucks more for it. If you don't care whether or not you have linen napkins or a fireplace to dine by, you go to any of the other hole in the wall lobster shacks. And yes, if you have never had lobster in Maine before, Mainers do expect you to put on the bib and be fearless with the claw cracker.
