Street & Co
Longtime favorite seafood and Mediterranean restaurant with a 4.6 rating. Known for a romantic, upscale dining experience in the Old Port.
Street & Co is a well-known Portland seafood restaurant tucked into a brick building on Wharf Street in the Old Port. It’s especially known for its intimate, candlelit atmosphere and a menu that leans heavily on fresh seafood, including oysters and simply prepared fish and shellfish. It’s a good choice if you want a classic Portland dining experience that feels a little more special than a casual waterfront meal.
History
Street & Co has long been part of Portland’s Old Port dining scene and is widely recognized as one of the city’s established seafood restaurants. It occupies a historic Wharf Street building in the waterfront district, and its reputation has been built around a focused seafood menu and an intimate dining room rather than a broad, trend-driven concept.
Expert notes
- Expect a more intimate, low-lit dining room than a large casual seafood hall.
- Reservations are a good idea, especially for dinner and weekends.
- A smart order is to focus on seafood and oysters rather than non-seafood dishes.
- The Old Port location makes it easy to combine with a walk along the waterfront before or after dinner.
