Sur Lie

Thomas Perceval

We had a awesome experience here for my wife’s birthday! Very nice atmosphere, great for a date night or out with friends. Excellent service- servers/staff were all incredibly friendly and chill. Happy hour even on the weekends! The cocktails were all very good. The food was on point- the popover and beef dishes were two favorites. Only two knocks were maybe that the next dish almost seemed to come out a little too fast (not necessarily a bad thing, but too fast for us), and a couple of the dishes had a little too much bitterness going on for our taste (the gnocchi and the compote with the cheesecake). But Sur Lie should be at the top of your list for places to try in Portland, especially if you like the tapas format!

This was one of the best dining experiences I've had in years. The tapas menu is incredible and everything is so well balanced and tasty. Mike was bartending that night and his cocktails were so good. Lots of savory components to the drinks that paired so well with the food. As a celiac, I was so happy to have a gluten free safe meal that was so good. I will happily be back.

If I could give a million stars, I would. This is hands down the best of Portland. Even with the change in head chef's (from when they first opened) it has always remained consistent and exceedingly spectacular. Every inch of this establishment screams high quality but still a very warm and inviting atmosphere. Great food doesn't always have to be enjoyed wearing a three piece suit. Suits definitely fit the vibe here but there is an element here that embraces being casual without over doing it. I'm not sure if I can even explain it. Also, ran by a woman is a huge plus. So proud that this is a Maine business and just go here.
