Best Restaurants and Bars for a Weekend Getaway in Portland, Maine | Eater Boston

"A West End sibling to the East End’s popular barbecue spot Terlingua, this spot channels Tex‑Mex into brunch standouts such as a smoked brisket hash with poached eggs and house hollandaise and buttermilk‑masa pancakes decked with caramelized pineapple syrup, hibiscus sugar, and maple sea salt butter, served alongside refreshing morning beverages like the bright green, herbaceous Verdita‑rita; the back patio offers a quiet refuge and there are comfy circular booths upholstered in rust red velvet. Zu Bakery, described here as the James Beard Award‑winning bakery next door, is a convenient grab‑and‑go option for the road." - Stasia Brewczynski
