- KKorenGreater Boston •7 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoDelightful meal, as always, at David’s 388! But this one was especially lovely : we were given one of our fave tables at the window, overlooking the sidewalk and DiPietros… there were string lights overhead and the snow was falling outside. It felt magical. Service was absolutely wonderful- from the host at the door, to our server, to the food runner who brought our meals! So friendly and thoughtful. This is exactly why we love this little neighborhood gem. xoMore infoDavid's 388Price: Expensive• Bistro• South Portland•4.8

- 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
