Pondicherry House

Went last night for happy hour and dinner. Wow, everything was amazing! Cocktails, oysters, short ribs, risotto with scallops, and the wines we tried were great too! We will certainly be back. Service was great, food was piping hot. Thank you for a wonderful evening!

I found this restaurant online and wanted to try it for two reasons, owner operated and great google star reviews. WOW Christine and Mike know absolutely what they are doing! Such an amazing time, great cocktails, wine, local oysters, mussels and the BEST onion bisque. Good job Chef! The next time we're in Maine we will definitely go back....The bar guest Daphne was a hoot, super fun! Thanks Mike for taking such good care of us, keep up the good work!

Found this place after a day on the lake have to say was absolutely blown away. Mike and his wife were extremely friendly as well as their staff. We had amazing food from start to finish from muscles to gumbo and home made spaghetti bolognese. Great mix of flavors and presentation bringing together an unforgettable dining experience. I have been to all the best restaurants in Portland and would say the food here is easily a contender if not better than some of these over hyped spots. 11/10 I will be back soon.

Wow! We have been going here for a while but last night truly was the icing on the *creme brulee*. We made very last minute reservations for NYE dinner and was thankful they accommodated us. The place was SUPER busy and despite some NYE chaos, they did an amazing job and the meal was incredible. I am writing this review the following morning and still full. 10/10. Great job everyone!

Very casual restaurant serving fresh food from the sea and land. Sitting at bar, you can seek the preparation of your food & the artistry that goes into making heavenly dishes. We started with fresh oysters, then the watermelon radish salad, salmon with quinoa. Of course we had carrot cake with white cream frosting. Due to my love of traveling, I have eaten in many places, however, this food is delicious!!!!!!!!
