- CChristopherGreater Boston •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWhenever my husband and I want a special night out we always go to Isa and they never disappoint. I didn’t think they could up their game but I had steak with a whiskey cream sauce and it truly was the best meal I can recall. This place is perfection…from the service,the atmosphere,and the food…simply sublime. Bravo Isa! Please don’t ever change.More infoIsa Bistro - PortlandPrice: Expensive• Bistro• Portland•4.9
- LLaurenGreater Boston •6 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoWe finally made it to Massimo into our daughter’s second year at UNH. Worth the wait. Literally my dinner was so good it melted in my mouth. I had the squash ravioli to start then the halibut in the the richest/ lightest/ most heavenly artichoke lemony caper broth… i will Not forget this dinner or the adorable ambiance downstairs. The bolognese was also a hit with my husband and daughter. Can’t wait to go back and maybe try the upstairs' next time. Perfect spot for lucky valentine diners tonight.More infoRistorante MassimoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Portsmouth•4.8
- CChristelleGreater Boston •3 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoThe Roma is the best place for an Italian meal for any occasion, special or otherwise. The ambience is perfect, a dining room in an old mansion, the food is outstanding, and the service is first rate. I would say it is one of the best, if not the best, overall dining experience for a romantic evening in Portland. There are other places that might be more recognized for their culinary offerings, but so many of them are loud with high ceilings, open kitchens, and awkward seating. The Roma is a perfect trifecta of a dining experience.More infoRoma PortlandPrice: Moderate• Italian• Portland•4.7
- EErichGreater Boston •7 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoA genuinely excellent Italian dining experience in Portland Maine's Old Port. The focus on locally sourced ingredients makes a big difference. The chef (from Genova) makes the most of the local fresh seafood. Service was perhaps the best we have had in Portland, which is a pretty high bar, but still, better here.More infoSolo ItalianoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Portland•4.8
