“Just finished one of the BEST Italian meals ive ever had in my restaurant going life in a place id never have expected to and thats saying something being a 1st Generation Italian coming from NY ! ViA VECCHiA is Portland, Maine was absolutely 10/10 on everything they did! We started with Meatballs, Whipped Ricotta & Grilled Octopus. The meatballs reminded me of my mothers, the ricotta was tremendous with truffle honey & sesame breadsticks and the octopus was grilled perfectly. One dish was better than the next. We shared ravioli with as an entree and we never felt gross like we ate too much. The portion sizes were PERFECT. Wrapped the night off with a espresso infused cheesecake over salted caramel. Wow. Staff was incredibly accommodating, professional and polite. Service was excellent! If youre ever in Portland, ME you must go get a meal here!“

“We had the beef tartare, agnolotti, and bucatini with lobster which were all really good. The portion size for the agnolotti was a little small so keep that in mind. Neither of us thought the atmosphere was impressive. The casual vibe is fine but they went far too minimalist with the design (think Scandinavian) which bordered on feeling cheap. Service was good too.“

“Good food, good service, lovely“

“We absolutely loved our dinner at Knotted Apron. The food was so delicious & inventive but more importantly the service was impeccable and made me feel like I was at home! ❤️ We will absolutely be back soon!“

“Wonderful environment excellent service and impeccable food! What an amazing experience in such a historic home. Matt was our server and he did not disappoint! Every thing we ordered was so flavourful and the wine suggested was spot on! Coming all the way from Coral springs Florida this was a wonderful dinner experience south Florida could learn a thing or two!!“

“Tipo is a great neighborhood Italian spot that feels a little more relaxed than some of the restaurants downtown. The wood-fired pizzas are really solid, the pasta is flavorful, and the small plates make it easy to order a bunch of things for the table. It has a comfortable local feel and is definitely an easy place to recommend for dinner and drinks.“

“We LOVE an evening out at Tuscan Table, South Portland location in fact we go every week! Our preferred place to sit is at the bar where we know we will always get excellent service from our favorite server Sammy. Sammy always greets us with a friendly smile and remembers what we like to drink, she also remembers how we like each dish that is ordered prepared even if we forget to ask, she knows. Sammy makes eating at the Tuscan a wonderful welcoming experience every time. Thank you Sammy and see you next week! Nancy & Eddie“

“If I had those stars to give, I would give Ribollita at least 1 star: It was just that good! ⭐️⭐️ The chef makes his own pasta. The dishes are perfectly done. The sauces are perfectly prepared. When I asked if the chef could add a garnish of pine nuts to the Fettuccine Alfredo and spinach, he obliged me and toasted them perfectly. You will be glad you had dinner at Ribollita's when you visit this restaurant!“

“Absolutely loved my experience at Benny's! The food was phenomenal—especially the breaded chicken and the stuffed peppers, which were packed with flavor. The service was fantastic, and the whole meal was incredibly enjoyable. We will definitely be back!“

We appreciate him and his whole DiMillo's Team..scallops, salmon, and other yum yums were all on point! Thank you Dimillos...another superb experience!!“

“We had an opportunity to dine at Sicilian Table just recently and found it to be just amazingly good. The greeters at the door, the wait staff, Ethan and Aidan, wonderful. Charming and very competent. The food was great, too. We've never eaten there before, but have visited the Freeport restaurant many times. Never ever disappointed.“

“We arrived just before closing time. Tyler, the person in charge of to go orders was extremely accommodating. He was very pleasant to deal with. We ordered soup and salad to go and a bottle of wine. Everything was just as we had ordered it and we felt as though he went out of his way to please us.“

“My Wife and I were told to try Maria's if in Portland by a friend. I must say, I could not be more impressed! We ordered the broiled seafood dinner. It was Christmas Eve 1960 at Gram's home! The amazing food was delicious and portions exceeded my expectations. Lobster, shrimp, cod and haddock filets and scallops! Everything cooked to perfection, in olive oil, thinly sliced garlic and butter, lite, not too heavy! I have not had such authentic Italian food since I lost Gram, 30 years ago. Be hungry as a sizable dish of linguini come with the mounds of excellent fish, lobster, scallops and shrimp! Excellent, true Italian entrées, and reasonable pricing! joined by wonderful service and an atmosphere that could be Naples, Venice or Rome! I cannot thank everyone at Maria's for an amazing experience in truly fine dining!“

Jim our waiter must have lit the table candle 50 times for my granddaughter to keep blowing it out ! Brunos rocks !“

“We stayed at the Westin Hotel in Portland, ME. The pizza was amazing and the service was great! It was cooked perfectly and had a nice crunch to it! No fork/knife needed.“

“Very happy to see Anjon’s back! We got stuffed bread, meatballs, shrimp appetizer and chicken Marsala. The food was excellent and fresh! The waitress was amazing! Please note that they just opened back up and they are working on getting staffed up, so there will be a wait time for your dinner. I have included a picture of the new menu.“

“Hilltop Superette is a great family-owned business that brings that hometown feel you just can’t beat! They have friendly service, fresh deli meats sliced right to order, and delicious homemade pizza sauce that makes their pizza extra special. You can tell they take pride in what they do and care about their customers. It’s always great to support a local, family-owned business that offers quality food and a welcoming atmosphere. Definitely worth stopping in and checking them out! ❤“

“The food wasn't that great and was expensive. The little tiny pizzas ( a personal pizza basically) are $11.25 each. I had a veggie pizza and the vegetables were really crunchy, we also got a loaded steak and cheese and it definitely wasnt "loaded." BUT the breadsticks were great and the people who took our order were very nice!“

“Great food, generous portions, and consistently friendly service. Portland House of Pizza is a local favorite for a reason—the pizza is delicious, the menu has plenty of options, and everything is always fresh and satisfying. Definitely worth checking out!“

“Andrew went above and beyond helping me with an order. I’m here on day three of no sleep with my dad in the hospital actively dying, and Andrew went out of his way to help me figure out how to order a sandwich for my aunt that the equivalent was a Greek salad wrap. Amato’s you have a great employee here!“
