Everything we ordered here was delicious, we got the mussels appetizer, lobster mac, and the hanger steak, as well as the pistachio dessert. The mussels were perfectly cooked and lovely flavor, the lobster mac was very creamy and one of the better lobster macs I've had, and the hanger steak was tender and flavorful, with the added bone marrow bread...

The restaurant is situated in the main part of town. We were seated right next to the large windows with a view of the street. Being in Maine, I wanted to at least sample seafood, so I had the redfish. The flavors were good, and the fish was cooked very well. I then tried the steak for my main course... More

Walking distance from Portland Stage on Forest Avenue. Excellent food, good tables for groups of six downstairs, or quiet tables for two upstairs.

A newcomer to Portland Me, I thought I was being taken to a bar but my host knew better: two extensive and interesting tasting menus with an option of well-judged wines to match each dish.

The tasting menu is delicious and scrumptious! From the mussels, steak, cheese plate to desert, everything gets a gold star. Great unpretentious service. In my opinion, Portland's number one restaurant!

Second floor seating overlooks the kitchen. You can watch how meticulous the chefs are. The restaurant is quiet. A great place for a special evening or just a relaxing time. There is a lighter separate... More

This restaurant receives high reviews but was very average. The atmosphere is average and very tight. Dinning upstairs area inconvenient and staff kept hitting back of chairs. Drinking bottled sparkling water but waiter twice poured tap water into our glasses. Mac and Cheese with lobster well couldn't find lobster, Foie gras terrine served with stale donut? Pepper crusted scallops would... More

I have been to 555 three times, and I won't return. I had a steak which they couldn't get right after two tries. They refused to do anything else about it. The next time, two of us were seated next to a large party. The server all but ignored us. The last time, we went there for brunch. We were... More
