Some say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but we’d argue that brunch actually deserves that honor. With its mix of both lunch and breakfast foods, it might be the best option for those who come to a great restaurant and just don’t want to be pinned down to one type of meal. If you’re a brunch-lover like we are, this is one place in Maine you must check out!
Ports of Italy has been included on a number of “best of” lists by both Maine and national publications. If you’ve been to either the Boothbay Harbor or Kennebunk locations, you surely know why.

We love dinner because it means hearty preparations of mussels. And they’re best known for their homemade pasta and ravioli.

Head to the Kennebunk location on a Saturday or Sunday to indulge in the same freshly prepared meals, but with a few small changes best suited for an earlier meal.

We still recommend the mussels! And, of course, whatever you can get with their incredible marinara sauce.

There’s a reason they were named the #1 Italian restaurant in the state by msn.com!

We love all meals here, but brunch offers a way to enjoy the atmosphere in a more casual way.
