At more than 110 years old, this downtown landmark restaurant doesn't hide its age; dark woods, turn-of-the-century décor, and scenes of old-time Portland give it a classic feel. An upbeat mood pervades the place, especially in the lively bar area, which is a local favorite. Jake's serves fresh regional seafood dishes as well as several varieties of the crawfish that made it famous. If you're feeling especially adventurous (not to mention hungry), try the 1-pound crawfish platter.
