What happened after Food Paradise?

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives' 'Stuffed' episode spotlighted Boone's Fish House & Oyster Room for the baked stuffed Maine lobster that founder Alexander Boone is credited with creating when he opened the restaurant on Portland's waterfront in 1898. The dish packs lobster meat with scallops, seasoned cracker crumbs, and herbs before baking, a recipe the two-story restaurant on Custom House Wharf still serves today across its two dining rooms, two bars, and harbor-view decks. Since the episode, the restaurant's website, checked 2026-09-08, lists daily hours of 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., the Commercial Street location on Custom House Wharf, and current contact details for dining and event inquiries, matching the phone number and address on file with Google's business listing for the Old Port waterfront address.
