Was up visiting family on fathers day weekend. Originally I am from Maine but now live in Ct. were they do not make this sandwich and do not have the same roll either.. So when we come and visit I've get a couple to bring back home and sometimes rolls also and make my own.. Yes I think it is the bread that ties it all together.. Very Good Mmmmm

When reading some of the reviews, I had the impression this might be a quaint neighborhood place with red and white checked tablecloths.... Well, not so much. Think formica and linoleum. Nothing fancy, by any means, but clean and neat. Looks like the bulk of their business is carry-out. In fact, I think you can carry it next door to the Blue Goose and have a beer with your Za. The pasta servings were huge like other diners have said. We opted for sharing a small loaded pizza and a couple of garden side salads. Salads were basic if not a little anemic---add some parmesan and they were okay. The loaded pizza with vegies and 2 meats was tasty---I would prefer a crispier crust but it was still good. About $20 for the loaded Za salads and a couple fountain drinks. Sounds like the pasta dishes are their specialty---but I'd eat here again.

Good for a quick stop for lunch. Fast in and out. Italian subs are very skimpy. Pasta is good. Clean good looking decor. Worth a stop
7. Sam's Italian Food
Reviewed By mmp619
We frequent the Sam's on Sabbatus Street. The Italian sandwiches are "the way Maine should be," and the peanut butter whoopie pies are 'to die for.' Pizza is fine and consistent; monthly specials are always good, ample, and priced to make you leave the cooking to Sam's at least once a month. Friendly young staff with lots of energy.

My wife lived in Lew-Aub many years ago - that Marco's burned down. We were looking for dinner this week and found that they had rebuilt in a new location. Very pleasantly surprised: we enjoyed our meal experience very much. The server was attentive, personable, and knowledgeable.Our meals were very tasty and well-presented. (And we certainly did not go hungry.) Will recommend, and come again next time visiting Maine.

I was staying at a nearby hotel and called to see if they deliver, they don't. However, I had read so much about this Maine chain, I decided to venture out and pick it up to go. I was starved! I like thin crust pizza so I really liked their crust. I was quite pleased. It was slightly overdone and the cheese a tad chewy but again, I was so hungry that barely registered. It's not shoot you to the moon pizza, but it's good, unless apparently you're a starved vegan like a previous reviewer

A coworker and I met for lunch. We both had salads, the French Salad and the Chicken Prosciutto Salad, and they were great. The French salad had generous portions of feta, asparagus and spinach. The chicken prosciutto salad had lots of chicken and prosciutto as well as fried Parmesan, tomatoes and greens. The fried Parmesan was a little odd tasting and I would not have that on the salad again. Server was very pleasant too. The pizzas looked good and smelled fabulous!

I stopped in with a friend for lunch before we went for a workout. She had the gluten-free, 10 in onion and mushroom pizza. It was delicious! I ate one slice and it was just melt-in-your-mouth yummy. I had the Greek salad. It was abundant, fresh, crispy, and very filling. The feta cheese and olives were right on. I strongly recommend this place for a healthy meal and great atmosphere. The place is clean, friendly, and waits on children and large crowds if needed. We will be back.

I donât go out to eat very often, and when I do I want it to be special. This was not. My salad greens in the house salad were wilted, not crisp. The garlic knots are very greasy feeling and donât taste fresh. My spaghetti and meatballs were ok. The meatballs, while very good, were lukewarm. And my daughter thought her carbonara were just âok.â Our server was very good.
