Maine raw bar & market: oysters, lobster rolls, fresh catch
"Praised as offering some of the country’s best seafood and raw‑bar selections—recommended as a destination for premium regional seafood in the South Portland/Knightville area." - Stasia Brewczynski
"SoPo Seafood isn’t in Portland proper, but it’s worth a short trip over the bridge to slurp some oysters, sip some wine, and maybe even buy some mollusks to take home with you. The raw bar focuses on highlighting the best and freshest the Gulf of Maine has to offer. You already know they’ve got the essentials like oysters on the half shell, but the best things are their takes on classics such as their gigantic lobster rolls, smoked seafood, and caviar with blinis. Or choose your own adventure with a mix-and-match oyster shooter where you can select a spirit and mixer (like tequila and Bloody Mary) to accompany your shucked shellfish. There’s a long wooden bar along with a few tables, and the whole space is bright, airy, and screams "I’m in Maine eating seafood." - alana dao 2
"The church that mollusks built. The pride and joy of South Portland. These are just a few nicknames we have for SoPo, a small seafood spot and market with gigantic lobster rolls, caviar, and mix-and-match oyster shooters. Post up at a high-top table, watch the shuckers go to town, and contemplate buying a whole flounder for later." - team infatuation
"SoPo Seafood is a sustainably minded raw bar and fish market, serving local oysters, crudo, fresh lobster rolls, smoked trout rolls, kelp burgers, and a tight drink list. It sources approximately 95% of its seafood products from the Gulf of Maine." - Adam H. Callaghan
"A friendly market and raw bar in Knightsville that doubles as a neighborhood hub, offering a wide array of raw-bar items, sandwiches, and rice bowls. The lobster roll is available with warm or cold meat heaped onto a fresh-baked split-top bun from a nearby bakery, and diners can elevate it further by adding a crown of caviar for an extra burst of ocean flavor." - ByBriana Bononcini
