Stopped in to pick up a late night dinner. Absolutely amazing prices for the quality and size of food you get. Ate the chicken parm sandwich, as well as tried their meatball sub and pepperoni pizza. Everything was delicious! All the workers were extremely friendly and happy to help in any way. Can’t recommend enough!

Great Italian subs, chicken parmigiana sandwiches, pizza, and prepared pasta, salads, and foods. If you’re in a hurry you can stop in an grab cold penne or tortellini pasta or parmigiana (chicken or eggplant) items from their cooler and warm up at home. Also a liquor store.

Well run business with outstanding beer/wine/spirits selection. Service is consistently top notch. An excellent neighborhood shop.

I wind up here at least two or three times a week. The owners are curators of their wine collection and will help you pick out just what you might like. By the way, the ratio of food / meat/veggies to bread is perfect in my opinion! Yes it's messy, but you get real food and not just bread. I also pick up last minute prepped dinners... Shepherd's pie, chicken pot pie... Great prices. Very friendly place, always happy to help. A neighborhood place. ..

Whenever I am in the area I try to stop in a grab a slice of pizza. The slices are a decent size, great price, and are very tasty as well. I’d recommend this location to everyone driving through this area who likes a easy and quick slice of pizza.

Wow. The steak, onion, pepper, and mushroom sandwich was great. Much more then I expected. They also had a great selection of items to choose from. The guy that made our sandwiches asked how they were after we finished them in the parking lot. We obviously said great. But messy. They definitely don't skimp on the fillings.

One of the few authentic Italian places left, family owned real nice place. Got a ham Italian and a pastry, outstanding.

I think this style of “Italian” is mostly unique to Maine. This particular sandwich is one of the best I’ve ever had - better than Amato’s.
