Maine a la Carte has reviewed Isa,
Entrees at Isa range from $15-22. My friend had the monkfish succotash and I had the pork chop with braised kale and green lentils, both $22 entrees. The pork chop was incredibly juicy and tender – one of the best I’ve had.
and the Press Herald has published a bar review of Ebb & Flow.
Ebb & Flow is a dazzling Mediterranean-inspired restaurant & bar in Portland’s Old Port. The bar area can easily seat about 50 people, not including standing room, and the bar itself is designed with plenty of room for patrons to enjoy a full meal, or a few drinks.
I started my dinner at Isa last night with their duck liver mousse and toasted baguette slices. The mousse was anointed with a dollop of sweet cherry compote. The dish was finished with pickled onions on the side and I washed it down with a chilled glass of lambrusco. It was a religious experience.
