A Phenomenal Unique Experience - The Portland Spirit is such a phenomenal staple of the city. Lovely views, tasty food, great music, wonderful atmosphere. You really can’t beat it as an experience for a date night, a family outing, or hosting folks who are visiting from out of town. Highly recommended!

Superb Service, Beautiful View - The service and atmosphere is superb. All of the staff are super friendly and professional. Really enjoyed the appetizers and my short rib entree. The bar mixes great drinks, also. We have in the past gone on wine tasting cruises and it was great fun. Highly recommend.

Evening river and bridge cruise - We were very pleased with our meal and the serving staff. The food was very tasty. The cruise up and down the river was also pleasant, seeing parts of our city we’ve never seen before. A very enjoyable experience.

Nice relaxing view - Nice relaxing dinner experience. There were really cool sights to see and take pictures of. The food wasn’t bad and I am a picky eater. I got the bacon wrapped chicken with gnocchi. The gnocchi was good. Lucas was a great server.

What I did like about... - What I did like about this cruise is the ambiance/ set up of the table and the views throughout the ride. I did not like that the top of the bread was super hard to tear apart with my teeth. The dinner entree could’ve used some more seasoning and I wish it would’ve been hot on arrival. I did enjoy the cheesecake, though. There were also floating black specs in the water, twice. Also there were a lot of Cobb webs, and I saw a lot of spiders.
