When you're looking for a truly unique dining experience, you can't beat a restaurant with an incredible view. There are plenty of great options throughout the state, but some stand out more than others. If it's a water view you crave, head straight to Dimillo's on the Water! This classic floating Portland, Maine boat restaurant offers delicious seafood and stunning views of the harbor.

Welcome to Dimillo's on the Water! This beautiful restaurant is located on a boat that was once used as a car ferry between Delaware and New Jersey. Tony DiMillo brought it to Long Wharf in 1982, and it's been serving as an amazing restaurant ever since.

Address: 25 Long Wharf, Portland, ME, 04101

DiMillo's is one of the largest floating restaurants in the country. She's 206 feet long, weighs 701 tons, and seats more than 600 guests.

You'll enjoy beautiful harbor views in the dining rooms on the first and second decks.

The three outside decks offer incredible views as well. When the weather's chilly, heaters will keep you toasty warm while you dine. A floating restaurant in Maine that's open year-round is certainly pretty special.

Watch the boats coming in and out of the harbor while you enjoy your meal, and breathe in that fresh ocean air.

The food is just as amazing as the view. If you're dining for lunch, you'll enjoy delicious sandwiches and seafood entrees.

Seafood is the specialty here, so you'll want to start your dinner with a jumbo shrimp cocktail, steamed Maine clams, or bowl of clam chowder.

The lobster is a local favorite at DiMillo's, and you'll definitely want to sink your teeth into a baked lobster stuffed with crab meat.

If you'd prefer beef, you'll find several steaks to choose from on the menu, like tender filet mignon, Black Angus sirloin, or the roast prime rib.

The dessert menu will definitely tempt your tastebuds. The Chef's Choice is a scrumptious cheesecake - a different flavor every day.
