“A Perfect Family Lunch at DaVinci’s Eatery Just had an amazing lunch with my wife and kids at DaVinci’s Eatery, and it was everything we hoped for and more. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The food was outstanding—truly top-notch Italian cuisine. I had the Chicken Amore, which was rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. My wife went with her all-time favorite, the Linguine Carbonara, and as always, it did not disappoint. Creamy, comforting, and packed with flavor. Great atmosphere, fantastic service, and absolutely delicious food. DaVinci’s has always been our favorite spot in our regular rotation!“

“Update 5/1/2025 : After living in the area for years and visiting here several times, I can confidently say I've never had a bad experience. I've brought my mother and grandmother here for Mother's day and I've celebrated birthdays here. I have not once been disappointed.

The food has always been hot and came out in a reasonable timeframe. The staff has always been friendly. The owner/manager has even let us try out specialty items they're experimenting with before putting them on the menu.

5/5 stars

Original 2019: I've ate here 3 times. The waiters were friendly, the food came out fast, and the baklava is delicious.“

“My husband and I just had lunch at the Sam’s Italian Restaurant in Augusta, Maine. The cranberry almond chicken salad sandwich was excellent, and I had to save half of it for later because it was so huge. My husband had the chicken parmigiana sandwich and he said it was the best he ever had. Kind, friendly employees. The place was nice and clean. Glad we found this restaurant. We will definitely be back soon.“

“We consider ourselves to be regulars at this Sam’s. The food is always delicious. Pizza and Steak and cheese sandwiches. The service is better than most places, we don’t need to carry the food to our table, it’s delivered to us. The one thing this trip, we didn’t get our rewards , our card has been registered. Anything that can be done?“

“Olive Garden in Auburn, Maine, has seen its fair share of mixed reviews over the last year, with some patrons expressing disappointment in the past. However, my recent visit suggests a shift toward a more positive dining experience.

Upon entering, the warm and inviting atmosphere immediately set a pleasant tone for the evening. The staff were attentive and courteous, ensuring that each guest felt welcome. The menu offered a variety of classic Italian dishes, and the food was both flavorful and well-prepared. The breadsticks and salad were as delightful as ever, living up to the Olive Garden reputation.

While previous reviews might have highlighted inconsistencies, it appears that the Auburn location has made significant improvements. The overall experience was satisfying, making it a commendable option for those craving a taste of Italy in a cozy, family-friendly setting. If you had reservations about visiting based on past feedback, it might be time to give Olive Garden in Auburn another chance.“

This is a very special place.“
