Victoria: Menu changes completely...per season i think! Tiger & the jackal- vodka, mango, kefir, caradamom bitters, and other yummy things 😊
Storm C.: Such good drinks, and don’t miss the little speakeasy in the back!
Liza P: Cocktails are good. Weirdly they gave up on being a speakeasy, it's a nice lounge still.

Jared: If you go for brunch, you have to try the house made corned beef hash. It is the best I have EVER had.
Portland Old Port: For brunch try the huevos rancheros, for dinner try something from the specials list, it's ever changing and always good. Wash it down with a Congress Street Bellini.
Anna Lib: Best place for brunch. Get the Fried Egg Sandwich.

Matthew Rosenthal: combo cocktail is a must and if they have the cajun scallops roll as a special a must try! oh and did i forget to mention oyster vodka shooters!?
Michael Coyne: J's Hat Trick: A lobster roll, a bowl of lobster stew, and a spicy Bloody Mary.
Eater: Nothing fancy here, just straightforward Maine seafood served with sass on Portland’s working waterfront. [Eater 18 Member]
Robert Metcalf: I love this place. The rooms are large, very comfortable, and quiet. We had a corner room with a large bath, which was perfect. I would stay here anytime.
Kate Sullivan-Jones: Ask for a snack plate because it's filled with pretzels and pub cheese. Supernice staff and fab wallpaper!
Wyngspan: Friendliest staff, charming cobblestone, central location. If you enjoy your stay, make sure you add The Regency to your circle of trust on Wyngspan.com Read more.
JENNIFER Cook: Grilled Salmon, root vegetable hash, broccoli rabe, chopped prosciutto and a rich beuurre noisant with wilted spinach. AAAAMAZING!!
Dan MacLeod: The burgers are incredible, but come with a mountain of fries. No joke. Way. Too. Many. Fries.
Portland Old Port: Urban steakhouse with Portland flair. Super crisp calamari! check out the review at portlandoldport.com in the Portland Bites column! Read more.

James B: Great oysters, cocktails, and get the lobster roll with brown butter
Chelsea Raab: The lobster roll with brown butter vinaigrette is the best thing I have ever eaten. Ever.
Tamara H: Please please get the lobster roll with brown butter vinaigrette. They steam the buns, so it's like a pork bun and a lobster had a baby. It's on the preemie side, so order biscuits, too.
