    Good Italian sandwiches.

    As a long time resident of the area in which this Anania's operates in- I have to say this is an old stand by for me. If you're looking for an old fashioned Italian sandwich on white bread- this is your place.

    We recently moved to the Back Cove area, and have been exploring what is within walking distance.
    Anania's is my quick stop to grab a piping hot slice of pizza, some tasty desserts, and other quick necessities if we do not feel like going to a department store. I've heard their meatball sandwiches are to die for, but I have yet to try! Regardless, all of the food looks great, and being combined with a convenient location, I will be coming back weekly!

    Ok, I will start this with the fact that Anania's has the best Italians in Portland. My Italian was delicious!!  We also ordered a loaded steak and cheese and 2 large meatball subs. My son loves the loaded steak and cheese. The meatball subs left a lot to be desired. Sauce was mediocre and the meatballs we small and cut in half. Definitely not worth the price.
    With food out of the way- let's talk service. Well lack there of. When we walked in the 2 women looked at us like we had 3 heads. Like, "How day you come in here?". They made out sandwiches and rang us up for real never smiled. They were unwelcoming, unfriendly, and borderline hostile. Very weird.

    Who would have thought that you would be able to find the best lasagna, pizza and subs in a little variety convenience store?!    When I first moved to Maine, the company I worked for had our luncheons catered from Anania's and I fell in love!  Their lasagna is the absolute best!  When I found out it was just a little variety store I was floored!   I used to frequent this location almost daily when I worked down the street.  The staff is always friendly and service is quick.  When I'm in Portland, I make it a point to stop in.  Hey, ya'll should consider opening up shop in the Lewiston/Auburn area!
