Lobster pounds in and around Portland, Maine

Could someone recommend the names of a few lobster pounds in and around Portland, Maine. Someone had recommend Watermans, it is not around Portland but I hear it is a good lobster pound. Thanks for your suggestions!

Sorry, Waterman's is the best but it's up by Rockland. Here's a discussion on lobster near Portland
http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/720586

Last year we had terrific food including a lobster dinner at Mike's Clam Shack on Rt 1 in Wells/Kennebunk area. It's not really a shack (Waterman's is with only outdoor seating) but a good, casual family restaurant. Went a couple of weeks ago and was disappointed in my clams. Usually, you can't screw up a boiled lobster but apparently some places do.

The absolute best place to eat lobster in the Portland area is the Lobster Shack in Cape Elizabeth, see link from getowt. It is the only place in the area with the iconic 'surf pounding on the rocks beneath a lighthouse' view. Long lines but even the locals go there. BYOB, everyone brings a bottle of wine or a couple of beers. You can combine it with a visit to Portland Headlight at Fort Williams park.
