This is a traditional favorite, if we can arrange it, before going to a play at Portland Center Stage. Their wines by the glass are as satisfying as more expensive bottles. Give us the Nostrana salad & a Margherita pizza to share, with added prosciutto and arugula (pay the extra!), and we're off to a good start for the evening. Servers are knowledgeable, efficient, and still manage to treat guests like family.

A delightful meal from start to finish, albeit an expensive one. Our server, Maria, was attentive and provided excellent recommendations, especially the steak tartare—it was our favorite dish, and one we wouldn't have ordered on our own. We'll be back, but only for special occasions.
