This has become one of our favorite places to go on Saturdays for dinner. The last two weeks my friend and I were working fundraisers the last couple of weekends and we were a little late arriving but as always the staff was gracious and pleasant and we had wonderful meals. View all feedback.

This place deserves 0 stars. They tried to serve us spoiled seafood and when we politely told our waitress that the fried clam strips were no good we were greeted by a very angry man whom stood there yelling that it was fresh and decided to pick one off of my father in-laws plate and proceeded to yell that they were fresh. One no they were not fresh (my husband is a cook for over 20 years and we are native Mainers) they were definitely spoiled. The chicken sandwich I ordered was over cooked and dried, the tomato 's on top were brown in the middle and slimy. Btw I ordered it with no veggies. After my husband politely refusing to eat the clams he got even angrier and yelled at us to not to eat anything and to get the hell out of his restaurant at this point I said very calmly ok we are leaving, bo worries and not issues, if you wanna serve bad food to your customers that 's your choice we are fine with leaving and not eating it. As we were walking out the door I was talking to my husband because I was shocked and completely embarrassed as the restaurant was pretty full with customers I made the statement like wow I can 't believe that just happened when all of a sudden I hear get the **** out of my restaurant now. At this time my family was already halfway out of the door we couldn 't move fast enough due to others coming and going at the same time. Not only was he very angry and intimidating but also thought I 'd was a good idea to put his hand on me to try and shove me out. I 'm the end I was very shocked, appalled and overall upset to the point that I broke down outside having a very bad anxiety attack. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. Bad food and terrible customer service. Believe me when I say it 's Maine there are 100 's of other restaurants that you can go to, get good food and wonderful customer service. As a mail of fact I 'll even recommend my favorite place to go.....BECKY 's DINER. Great food, fresh, good prices and amazing people. If your ever coming to Maine trust me it 's worth it to skip Ocean Garden Restaurant and just come to Portland to Becky 's I promise you won 't regrets it.

Absolutely filthy kitchen and the owner is one of the worst human beings I've ever encountered. A truly rancorous slug of a man. Avoid at all costs.
