Peanut Butter and Jelly Time has received 4 stars from the Eat & Run review in today’s Press Herald.
I realize “exquisite” is a big word in the context of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, which is basically a step up from toast and perhaps the first substantial exercise in food preparation for any 5-year-old. But it’s appropriate nonetheless.

As part of her look back at the five restaurants she visited during MRW, Edible Obsessions has published a review of Five Fifty-Five.
I didn’t know what to expect, but whatever expectations I lightly held I can easily say that they were not equaled. Our biggest problem was over seasoned, which plagued both the apps and the entrees. The desserts were odd, mine weirdly textured and hers “off” in flavor.
In the end our experience left us highly unimpressed.
Yesterday was a banner day for restaurant reviews with reviews posted for five different restaurants.
Edible Obsessions published a review of Bresca.
There is one quote to best sum it up: “When I am eating, I know nothing. But when I am finished eating, I begin to understand. ” –Don Quioxte During the meal, we were caught up in the lushness and decadence of it all..but, later on that evening I realized that this was simply the best meal that I have ever had the privilege to eat. I can’t believe it took us so long to go back and now it seems I can’t dine there again soon enough.
Broke 207 published a double header with reviews of The Farmer’s Table,
Restaurant week should be about providing amazing food and reasonable prices in order to seduce new clientele into your establishment. but in my experience, things have felt hastily thrown together with a distinct sacrifice of quality.also, the restaurants seem overwhelmed by the volume of people, and the service suffers gravely.
and of The Corner Room.
my main course was practically the same dish as i had at the farmer’s table in conception (handmade pasta with mushrooms and cream sauce), except that it was appropriately portioned and lick your plate tasty.
Travels with Hilary published a review of Conundrum,
The thick slab of meatloaf was dense, moist, flavorful, and seared on two sides; the potatoes were rich and smooth, with occasional small chunks of potato and a large dollop of bleu cheese on top, which melted in nicely.
and Maine Maven published a review of The Grill Room.
The warm ricotta appetizer was creamy and divine, and the Cobb salad topped with a fried egg looked phenomenal, but watching our friend eat the filet mignon sandwich put us over the edge. We can’t wait to go back for dinner.

Edible Obsessions has published a review of Boda.
The presentation on the Taro Sticks was great: simple spider cradling a decent batch of fresh taro fries. And it’s served with Sriracha. Really you need more? Ok, they were perfect. Now, fry them in duckfat and I would dub them “Grandruler of All Fries in Portland!” They would be stern, but gentle rulers.
Phoenix editor Jeff Inglis has published a Maine Restaurant Week review Sonny’s in About Town.
I had the ceviche of the day – scallops, that day – which were luscious and tender, with a good citrusy tang that was not so strong as to take over the scallop’s own flavor.

Portland Eats has published a review of K. Horton Specialty Foods.
At K. Horton, the cranberries impart a tart sweetness and provide an interesting contrast to the whitefish’s smokiness. Meanwhile the mild cheese added richness and the almonds a welcome crunch. Not your average lunchtime sandwich…
The Blueberry Files has published a review of Bresca.
I hope between my careful consideration and these photos, you understand why Bresca is a sure thing for a nice dinner out in Portland. The food is spot on, the prices are reasonable, the wine list extensive, and the desserts excellent. You’ll feel special eating here, but comfortable enough that you can make friends with your neighboring tables and drink a lot of wine.
