The Spotlight on Eighteen95, at The Portland Regency Hotel & Spa

Refined Comfort Dining in Portland’s Historic Old Port

Nestled inside The Portland Regency Hotel & Spa, Eighteen95 offers a sophisticated yet cozy American dining experience in the heart of Portland’s charming Old Port district. Located just a short walk from several key music venues, this elegant spot blends historic charm with modern touches, featuring exposed brick, rich wood tones, and a fireplace that adds to its warm, inviting vibe.

Known for its locally sourced ingredients and seasonal menus, Eighteen95 specializes in upscale American fare—think hand-cut steaks, fresh seafood, and artisan cocktails served in a relaxed but polished setting. Whether you're starting your night or winding down after a show, this is a place that delivers both flavor and atmosphere.

Why Concert-goers love it

Its prime location makes Eighteen95 a fantastic option for concert-goers looking to enjoy a quality meal without straying far from the venue. The quiet, intimate ambiance is ideal for conversation before a show, and the attentive service ensures you're in and out on time if needed. Many diners note that it's a great place to relax with a drink before heading to a nearby gig or event.

What People Say

Reviews consistently praise the restaurant’s elegant setting, high-quality food, and professional service.

The wine list and cocktail menu also get high marks, along with the friendly staff who are happy to accommodate timing for events.

Areas for Improvement

Some diners mention that prices can be on the higher side, especially for larger groups or those not ordering from specials. A few reviews note that while the atmosphere is lovely, it may feel a bit too quiet for those seeking a high-energy, party vibe before a show.
