Finally got to Bresca! My husband and I ate lunch here today and it was wonderful. It has a very limited menu, but the food was fresh and expertly prepared. I had read many reviews about the shaved Brussels sprout salad, so we felt compelled to try it. I can't say I loved it and would probably not get it... More

A friend recommended Bresca & I walked by a couple of times & kind of kept walking, but figured I would give it a try. So stopped in for lunch. It's a small but so comfortable spot. A bar with 4 seats & maybe 6 tables. The owner is also the chef & clearly this woman takes such pride in... More

Otherwise I'll never get in. OK, the secret is out. Anyone with a brain - sorry, stomach - knows that Bresca is one of the (deservedly) top restaurants in a town full of fabulous eating. And now that they're open for lunch - Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and (I believe) Saturday - is just icing on the cake. Besides delicious cake...eh,... More

This restaurant just started serving lunch several days a week and is a real must to visit if you like tasty food. The deserts are wonderful. The prices are moderate for such delicious fare. It is some place to go for a delicious leisurely meal.

A sweet restaurant that has a small menu with fresh big tastes. A great place to have a business lunch or to meet a friend and enjoy a long and leisurely meal.

We stumbled on this restaurant which feels like a Parision Bistro. Best food in Portland says a longtime Portlandite. I was on my way to Duck Fat, but very happy to discover this jewel.

This fine restaurant on Middle Street in Portland Maine was recommended to us by friends and we will be forever grateful to them. This place is small in terms of dining space (capacity under 20 seats) but the food is home cooked and locally grown and done with both pride and perfection. The staff of two servers are very earnest... More

A small restaurant with exquisite food. A wonderful dining experience! The chef is highly regarded in Portland and in the Food industry. Menu is carefully selected and draws on local foods. When we had the opportunity to go out to dinner with a highly regarded in the area, this was his first choice. Have to seek it out, it isn't... More
