Stopped at Kaler's because of recommendations from locals and Tripadvisor. We had the best twin lobsters and fried clam strips. The lobsters were so incredibly sweet and tender and the clam strips were cooked perfectly! It just doesn't get any better! Both came with a generous portion of crispy French fries and cole slaw! We sat by the window overlooking... More

We just had burger and fries since we had already had lots of seafood. The burgers and fries were great and the service was good too.

I have eaten at Kaler's several times now and can't stop ordering the fried haddock sandwich, because it is the best I have ever had. The fish is incredibly light and tasty. Service is always great, and the restaurant is very clean.

I want to like Kaler's because it is kind of cute. The prices are a little high but that does not bother me too much. I have been there three times in the last two years. The first time I woudl classify my meal as average but the last time, August of 2012 and this past Saturday, I was very... More

Several years ago we stopped at this wonderful resturant. We had the Deep Fried Lobster. We went back there this year just for the view of the harbor and the Deep Fried Lobster and of course the wonderful chowda. When in Maine, this is a must place to stop.
