The Dining Guide.
Far from complete, but here you will find a list of local favorites, as well as a few links to some other local sites that provide additional insight into the dining scene in Portland. I will only provide write-ups on places that I have been to and I will aim to fair and balanced. Just like Fox news.

Dinner

www.foodinportland.com
Provides a fairly complete list of dining spots in the city. Pretty sure this site has not been updated in a few yrs. That said, the reviews are still fairly accurate, even if they are quite long-winded.
www.portlandfoodmap.com
A very unique display of Portland’s eateries. The site is by far the most comprehensive and has dining options broken down into useful categories, such as ‘Eat Out,’ ‘Grab a Bite,’ etc.

Reviews of restaurants around Maine by a pro.

Some very detailed reviews of Portland and New England eateries. Probably a bit too detailed if you are trying to quickly locate a dinner spot, but if you are looking for the play by play of Portland's upscale restaurants, click on through.

A blog with a focus on breakfast spots.

It is an exceptionally ugly website, but it does have a bounty of take-out menus for towns all over ME, not just Portland.
