“My wife and I went to Olive Garden last night and very much enjoyed it - we’d been to others in the chain but not this one. The exterior was attractive, we were greeted and sat immediately, and the food, as usual, was tasty and plentiful (lasagna for me, chicken Parmesan for my wife). We both also appreciated that our entrees were available as both full and ‘lighter’ portions, which suited us after eating the included salad and bread. But what probably made the experience so pleasant was our server Samantha, who was cheerful, attentive, and served us quickly - she’s a definite bonus for this restaurant.”

“Sam's Italian Food in Augusta nobely handled 22 college soccer players and coaches in the blink of an eye. There were a couple missed orders, but Sam's made it right. They've got the seating to handle a much larger crowd if necessary.”

“Had the cheesesteak w/onions, peppers, mushrooms, and I gotta say it was a very solid sandwich! Actually, it was one of the better cheesesteaks I've had in Maine in a while. It's definitely in the technique, i.e., the girl who cooked it mixed the perfectly melted cheese in very uniformly w/the meat. It's a beautiful thing when people make food w/love! Bread roll was good...definitely will order it again...wonder if it's just that one girl has mad cheesesteak game on the flat top...lol.🤔”
