    Fist time in old Portland. Used Yelp to find a good eating place. Being from Louisiana we know good seafood and crawfish. I found the clam chowder and boiled lobster to be just delightful. <br><br>Our waitress was one of the best with suggestions and service. She even demonstrated how to eat boiled lobster. The bread pudding was great.

    DiMillo's is an adequate restaurant.<br><br>The food was OK. Soups were pretty good - the New England Clam Chowder was creamy and delicious, and the Lobster Stew had decent chunks of lobster meat in it. Nice little touches on the salads - fresh grapes and sunflower seeds.<br>My lobster was good.<br>My wife's scallops were overcooked.<br><br>The service was very, very rushed - I got the feeling that our waitress was really going flat-out. Even when they are, they should never seem like they are. The whole thing felt like what it is - a super-huge Tourist Destination Restaurant where you can get The Local Specialty with The Local Scenery. Possibly worth doing once. <br><br>If you go, get a lobster and the blueberry cobbler. Those were the two shining stars of the meal.

    We were walking around looking for a place to have lunch at 2pm that is still open and we came across this place so we decided to give a shot. When we walked in, the place looks and dark. We asked if they have a table and the hostess asked if we mind sitting at the bar area as the main dining has a wait, so we said no. She immediately took us to our table. We had asked for a high chair as we have our one year old with us but she didn't bother getting it for us. I immediately saw a few high chairs at the corner of the room and I asked my husband to grab one. The hostess didn't even bother to give us menus so we were just sitting there waiting. We waited for at least 5 mins before our waitress showed up. When she showed, she was actually friendly and did a pretty good. I ordered the pappardelle with shrimp and scallops. The pasta came from a box. The shrimp and scallops was great. They were fresh and cook perfectly. The portion was pretty generous. Overall, the dish was just OK. My husband ordered the haddock and the green beans came from a can and the fish was really oily. Overall our meal was just Ok. I gave this place a 2 star because lack of service from the hostess.

    This place may have had its time say some 30 years ago but today it's a dinosaur. The food was ok I got the haddock the green beans on the plate were from a can. My wife got the pasta and shrimp the pasta was from a boxed the shrimp saved the dish they were large and fresh. Everyone in the place look as though they had retired 20 years earlier not that this is a problem but it did make us feel a little out of place. I'd avoid.

    Besides the fact that it's on the water, nothing special about this place. Food was okay only. Had their special lobster dinner, the baked lobster was dried!
