Yet another fantastic visit to George & Leon's! It had been a little while since we have visited…read morebut with it being so close decided to have dinner here. Showed up before any sort of rush and snagged two seats at the bar. The overall vibes are great here with lots of interesting decor (lots of movie & horror themed things). The bartender greeted us and was willing to answer any questions we had and immediately got us glasses of water. We then decided on cocktails and she made great tasty drinks to our liking. My wife went with a Daiquiri and had just enough fruity/sweetness with a kick still. I got one of their bourbon drinks and it had a great kick to it. Food wise I ended up getting their Buffalo Chicken Sandwich and it was a delicious sandwich with juicy chicken. My wife got the Jr. Beef and enjoyed it but thought the sauce was a touch spicy (would likely pick another item next time) but very much enjoyed it and finished it still. We split an order of onion rings and they were outstanding, lightly battered but perfectly crispy. Due to sitting at the bar we had fantastic conversations with the bartender who made us feel welcome and provided great service. We talked about our love for animals, Maine and more. Really the perfect example of how the experience of sitting at a bar should be and why you'd return! Give George & Leon's a try if you haven't and if it's been awhile revisit!

Stopped by George and Leon's in Portland for lunch and had the Junior beef with the homemade onion…read morerings, and it absolutely hit the spot. The beef was tender, flavorful, and piled just right, with plenty of sauce to make every bite satisfying without being too much. The onion rings were a standout--crispy, golden, and clearly homemade, with great seasoning and a fresh taste you do not get everywhere. This was one of those simple, classic meals done really well. Good portions, great flavor, and exactly the kind of local spot you hope to find when you are in town. I would gladly order this again.

I was in a rare craving-red-meat mood and decided to try Roasty's today. I got the Boston 3-Way…read moresandwich (onion roll, warm roast beef, kewpie mayo, American and BBQ sauce) and it was delicious. The meat was tender and not at all tough. The onion roll tasted fresh and was slightly buttery without being too oily. I swapped the American cheese that usually comes on it for Swiss. The employee at the counter was very friendly and was happy to give me free iced water despite the to go order. She mentioned that it was smart to order the barbecue sauce on the side because it sometimes makes the to go sandwiches, especially, soggy. Maybe in the future they could do this for all sandwiches that are prone to sogginess. Delicious late afternoon snack for me!

They seemed to have plenty of staff on hand, but there was some sort of communication breakdown going on between them. Once I got all parts of the order, though, it was great. Especially the mozzarella sticks. Tonight, we tried for delivery. The pizza arrived about 40 minutes after the estimate we got, which would have been fine, estimates aren't binding. BUT the (cold) mozzarella sticks were completely different this time - rather than the fresh and delicious ones we've always loved, these were some kind of generic freezer thing, with that "stale with a hint of freezer-burn "taste to them you'd expect from a convenience store or fast food joint. It'll be a long time before we give this place another try.

Ahh, the sign of a butchers cleaver. I am not sure what this provokes in most people, but as I've…read moresaid before, Stephen King gives me the heebie-jeebies. So for me, the butcher cleaver represents something tasty--except for when the shmuckabaloos haven't a clue what they are doing. Fortunately, this tasty little joint, Miller's Market up in Gorham, Maine, knows what they're doing! I'd been cruising the highways, riding the coast of Vacationland for some time now, and somehow, someway, ventured a bit further inland. Once I saw the burnt-orange cleaver in the window, I knew I'd have to give it a try and see if these hullabaloos knew what they were doing. I was greeted with a "Hey, how you'rrrr doin'?" The soft, rolling extension on the r made me feel right at home in Maine. Jeezum crow, you Mainers speak funny. But by golly, you are a lovable bunch of hillbilly farmers and fisherfolk. Anywho, I ordered myself a chicken Caesar wrap--wanting to feel nourished, but not to the point of comatose. Salad in a wrap--a genius way to feel healthy. Mind over matter. "Hand-cut fries or hand-cut chips?" the counter guy asked me. Now, I love a fry, but I'm feeling crunchy in these overcast late-April days. I hesitate, and somehow this mind reader behind the counter could sense it. "I can see you want the chips, but you gotta try these fries. Why don't I give you a little of both?" he says to me. Now I'm looking at him cockeyed--just another Mainer who seems to be able to read a man's soul. Well, I am here now--no turning back. And then my eyes widen when I spot a tasty crème soda in the fridge next to the register. My lucky day. Crème soda--the most underrated of all sodas. What's not to love? Creamy and poppy all in the same bottle. This guy seems nice, and I am in no rush, so I say, "Hey, throw it on my tab. I'm going to be a while. After I eat, I'm going to write something!" I pull up a spot without paying and know that there's no expectation to do so--at least not right away. Good ol' Maine courtesy, as good as this blueberry Jalapeño salsa from Pemberton partners, which I can apparently purchase at Millers Market, where it just ain't sangys it's home goodies too. I open up my futuristic-typewriter and get to work on my latest novel, but can't seem to find a single word. I glance at the menu--buffalo chicken pesto sandwich. Hard tellin', not knowin'. Mainers--brilliant folk when it comes to food. Pesto and buffalo sauce! Never had it, but I need it. That's bound to be tasty--as warm buttah' on lobstah. "Hi, I'll take my butter with lobster, please."--how it should be ordered. Dee-EEE --licious. You Mainers are shaking your heads right now, pesto and buffalo is probably a common thing round these parts, from ya? Nope I ain't and the rest of the country is far behind on the trend of the buffalo/pesto combo, I can promise you that. Then my food is brought out to me. It looks tasty--but the fries have me skeptical.... Find out how it all turned out at https://ryanccurtis.com/blog/timeless-fries-at-millers-market/n19c63

Busy day running around and I was STARVING! While in Gorham, my wife suggested Miller's Market. At…read morefirst, I was put off by the atrocious parking, but what else could I expect in down town? This place definitely gives "butcher" and "market" vibes, which was expected. Indoor seating was lacking, and the menu wasn't huge...but trust me, the variety was just enough to satisfy just about anyone. I ordered the smash burger, which was messy, greasy and absolutely fantastic. I got the turkey club for my kids to split (and this thing was HUGE) they didn't finish it . My wife got the Cesar wrap, and she was beyond happy with it. She even brought half back home with us. I strangely suggest going on a nice day and sitting outside, it was wonderful. (Pro-tip; if going during peak lunch, expect a wait on the food. We went into Azul Tequila and got an appetizer to go so we could eat this while waiting for our sandwiches. Honestly, it's the best of both worlds)

I really enjoy it when owners are boots in the ground helping get their food out.

First time visiting a Firehouse Subs location for both my wife and I. We had been mentioning…read morewanting to try this Rock Row location for quite some time and finally got here. It's similar in some aspects to other major sub/sandwich chains. Compared to one major one you don't watch your sandwich being made or make choices during sandwich building. We looked at the menu beforehand to make sure we had our sandwiches picked out prior so we didn't cause a backup of a line. They have a good variety of subs you can order. As long as you enjoy sub sandwiches you should find an option. The one exception I would say is for those who are vegan/vegetarian. They do offer one sub called Veggie, so you have an option but that's really it. They offer their sandwiches on wheat or white and have three different sizes available. I got a large of their Smokehouse Beef & Cheddar Brisket while my wife got a medium of their Italian. We both enjoyed them, although I will say we have had better from other national chains and especially better from more local spots too. The staff were quite friendly and the wait for our sandwiches was minimal. They do have seating for those who want to enjoy their food as soon as it's made, but I assume most take it to go. If you enjoy a sub sandwich and want to give a different national chain a try than your typical choice then come to Firehouse. We will consider them as a possible option occasionally but won't necessarily be rushing back.

I guess I will never get the refund because I am done with this place. This is the 3rd or 4th order in a row that has been incorrect and their only response seems to be "My bad".
