Located in Portland's Old Port District, Fore Street opened in June, 1996. The interior surrounds a unique brick and soapstone hearth with a wood-burning oven, grill and turnspit; visible from most tables. We believe that good food travels the shortest possible distance between the farm and the table. Our menu changes every day and is founded upon the very best raw materials from a community of Maine farmers, fisherman, foragers and cheese makers. Most of the Maine foods are organically grown or harvested wild, each brought to us at the peak of its season. In 2002 and again in 2007, Fore Street was named by Gourmet Magazine as one of the Top Fifty Restaurants in the United States. In 2004, Chef-Partner Sam Hayward was named Best Chef: Northeast by the James Beard Foundation.

    My wife and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary last night and the staff at Earth did a fantastic job. Curt our waiter was exceptional and the food was phenomenal. The combination of ingredients was very palatable as well as the presentation. I highly recommend Earth for their food and service and consider it to be one of the best dinning experiences we have ever had.
