    Gluten free pizza
    Tommy B.

    So.... just heard of this place.... Best Mozzarella Sticks ever! They're homemade!!! And.... Gluten free pizza!!! So good!! They hours are limited, but worth it!!!

    Menu as of 2.2024

    So yummy. mozzarella sticks were awesome. Pizza' were very good (we really liked the dough) Call ahead to see when they are open, Apple Maps and Yelp weren't accurate. They were open even though these apps said they were not...

    The best thing on the menu were the chicken fingers and even those were at best mediocre. You'd be better served to eat snow.

    We ordered chicken cutlets for our appetizer and for our entrees we got pepperoni pizza, cheese ravioli, and chicken marsala.

It was the best vegetable medley I had ever had! It had broccolini, roasted garlic, and mushrooms (I don't even like mushrooms!). I couldn't stop talking about it all weekend The waitress was in training, but very knowledge. She checked on us the perfect amount, while giving us space to enjoy our evening together. There were 6 of us and everyone left more than happy!

We were seated right away by the window, giving us a beautiful view of the water while we enjoyed our meal. We started with the Special 4th of July appetizer, which was festive and patriotic fruity Sweet Crostini's. It felt more like a light dessert before the main course. It was fresh, unique, and beautifully presented. For our entrées, we ordered the perfectly cooked scallops and the meatballs with penne, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. The food arrived quickly, the service was incredible, and our server was attentive throughout our visit. The restaurant itself has a cozy, warm, inviting atmosphere, and the lakeside setting makes it even more special. A wonderful dining experience, and we'll definitely be back!

    It's rare that I return to a restaurant that I really enjoyed and pick exactly the same dish I had…read morebefore; I usually want to explore the rest of the menu. Chitarrucci neri ai frutti di mare (black ink chitarra pasta with seafood), however, was something I really wanted to have again. I was hoping that it would be as great as I remembered ... it was. We started with Cozze alla sambuca. I would not have thought of putting fennel or sambuca with mussels, but it was a good combination. The other players (shallot and herbs) were well balanced too. The Insalata de Cesare was fresh and well dressed, with a generous portion of shaved parmesan. The Chitarrucci was the star, with pasta cooked just right and plenty of mussels, shrimp, scallops, calamari, and clams. If I have to be picky, the calamari may have been slightly over cooked, but I'd order this dish over and over again. (I didn't taste it, but the gentleman at the next table had a beautiful plate of ossobuco, with the osso standing up in the middle of the risotto with a sprig of herb 'planted' in the marrow. He said it was great) If you're anywhere near Boothbay, make a reservation and try Ports of Italy.

    We dined at Ports of Italy one night while in Boothbay Harbor. For an Italian restaurant, it was…read moregood but not great. We shared a Caesar salad, which was fine, but it was nothing memorable either. We each got our own entrees, which we hadn't been doing because it's usually too much food, and since we were on a road trip, there wasn't much point to requesting doggy bags like we normally would because we wouldn't be able to eat the leftovers. Unfortunately, neither of us finished our meals... they were both tasty, but we ended up leaving food on our plates. I hate wasting food like that. I think we'll return to our one-entree-and-share-it protocol for the remainder of our trip. That seems to be working for us. My chicken dish, Pollo con Funghi, which came with tomatoes, olives and mushrooms in a white wine butter sauce seasoned with basil, garlic and oregano, was tasty, but it was too large a portion for me to finish. There was also some squash, and we had ordered a side of spinach, too. I was very sad to not have taken the remaining food for leftovers. Would've been great. My husband ordered the Ravioli di Astice, which was lobster and ricotta filled ravioli in a prosecco and aurora sauce. Not sure what aurora sauce is, but when I tasted it, the sauce was delicious. My issue with his dish was that the ravioli was severely undercooked, and it was way too chewy... definitely not al dente. They simply didn't cook it long enough, which was a shame because the flavors were excellent. Big miss for an Italian restaurant. I suppose I'd give this place another try if we're ever fortunate enough to return to Boothbay. We definitely would have to agree on one entree between the two of us, though, so we don't waste food.
