Best Cozy Restaurants in South Portland

The food was amazing and cooked perfectly. Our waiter, Jake, was funny and attentive. Restaurant is small so noise level was a bit high but I could still have conversation with my table easily.

Really lovely experience at Isa. The space is cozy and intimate but never felt crowded. The food was exceptional! Our server Justin was wonderful and kind. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening at Isa.

Fantastic menu front to back - incredible assortment of highly seasonal ingredients that were largely locally foraged. Michael was personable, well versed on the menu and offered great insight to the philosophy of the restaurant. Definitely a new neighborhood regular spot. Thanks Regards team.

Timely and pleasant service. Menu options were plentiful and the ones we ordered were delicious. Wines by the glass selection was a bit limited but overall worth a return visit especially if heading to Merrill auditorium for a performance.

We were a group of seven. Roma was open on Sunday which was the only day we could all be together. The ambiance was excellent and everyone complimented the chef on the excellent food when he came to the table. The staff was more than courteous. Our waiter recommended a flight of desserts since there were so many of us. It worked out perfectly. We will definitely return the next time we're in Portland.
