The food looks delicious and that’s why we came here. However, when we arrived around 1:05 pm, the lady at the entrance was very rudy and told us we couldn’t dine in without being in the waiting list. It’s not what she said, it’s the way she said it.-Restaurant reached out to me in the nicest way and apologized for the situation about the host. I will be giving them a try soon as the food looks fantastic. Looking forward to it.

It was raining outside, but Heather my server offered sunshine service. The French toast and thick-cut bacon went down smoothly with the expresso martini. I will be back for the brunch.

Such a sweet spot, we don't mind waiting for a seat. It's really cute inside and every dish is worth it's price. The Rumchata Chai Latte is pretty much the best spiked drink I've ever had. Thanks as always !!
Great restaurant. I've been many times and will return many many more. This particular visit was for brunch. Had Eggs Benedict. They were great. Service is always great. The restaurants is also great for lunch and dinner. Lots of interesting food and drinks. If you haven't been, go check it out, and you two will go again and again.

Wonderful food and service. Sausage biscuits and gravy as good as I remember from my southern upbringing.

staying in Portland for the weekend and my friends first trip, we had to stop at Hot Suppa! i don't typically wait anywhere, but we waited 45 min for a table because they don't accept reservations but it was worth the wait (been here a few times before so i anticipated it). Amber was the best server during our entire trip, which is saying a lot because everyone has been absolutely wonderful. I had the rumchata chai latte which is so good! my friend tried their lavender twist, which was okay, no *oomph* he says, but the fried green tomato eggs benedict was phenomenal. great presentation and portion, crunchy fried tomato and soft eggs with crispy hash browns, one of the best breakfasts i've ever tasted. i had the grilled cheese with tomato soup; the soup is the creamiest, yummiest you could even imagine, while the grilled cheese is made up of thick, sourdough bread filled with muenster and cheddar cheeses, perfect for a rainy day. lavender twist 4/5 rumchata 5/5 grilled cheese + tomato soup 5/5 fried green tomato eggs benedict 5/5 welcoming, cozy environment and funky, local art decor. worth the wait. "be kind or leave." no wonder this is one of the top 10 breakfasts spots in new england. i'll return to hot suppa every time i visit portland. ambiance: 5/5 food: 5/5 drinks: 4.5/5 service: 5/5 Hot Suppa: 5/5

Shrimp grits were to die for! Soooo delicious and flavorful! Very homey and cozy feel. The scrambalaya was under seasoned. We got their seasonal special pierogies and they were just okay.
One of my favorite places I tried when I visited Portland! My friend and I arrived at noon on a holiday Monday and put our names on the list. We got seated about an hour later so bear in mind that it does get busy. There's not a ton of seating but what there is is very cozy. Lots of vibrant paintings on the wall to admire. Despite being crowded the noise wasn't overwhelming. Service was friendly and quick. Food was delicious! I ordered "the Hollis" - 2 eggs, grits or hash browns, and buttered toast. I got my eggs scrambled and they were fluffy and light. The grits were buttery warm goodness. Toast was yummy too. My friend got the mushroom scramble, which I tried and can confirm was outstanding. Definitely will be back the next time I'm in Portland!

It was pretty crowded, but the food was good and the people were nice, as well as the artwork.

Came from Montreal for a week-end trip in Maine and this is probably the best brunch you could get around Portland. Lovely staff, not too much wait.

I consider myself somewhat of a breakfast connoisseur and this place was quite possibly the best tasting breakfast I've ever had. Their Nashville hot chicken Benedict was REALLY spicy but I'd eat 10 of them if I
