Tapas and drinks prepared so amazingly it's hard to put into words! This is our personal favorite in Portland. Be prepared to have a wait more often than not, BUT it's well worth it AND they will text you when your seat is ready so you can continue to enjoy the Old Port while you wait. Make this a priority if you're true foodie - you won't be disappointed. Sit at the food bar upstairs if you can (worth an extra wait) so you can watch the art in action!
