"It is only in recent years that the city’s East End has really taken off as a dining mecca, and Best Bower lands you right in the middle of it. The building itself, an old schoolhouse, was moved from a neighboring town over 100 years ago. The wood and ironwork have been beautifully restored and remodeled by some of Portland’s most prominent craftsmen, and feature six rooms with access to a shared courtyard. It is owned and operated by local restaurateurs and nicely captures the feel of the neighborhood." - Joe Ricchio, Alexandra Hall
