    My son brought me to this spacious and gorgeous restaurant while I was visiting him in Lewiston, ME. The brick and wooden beam architecture from the old milll remains which provides such an aesetically pleasing atmosphere. It is great that this building has been able to be repurposed . We sat at the bar which is a full bar. My son dines here often and recommened some dishes he had tried. There were many dishes on the menu I wanted to try! Garlic knots were the first things out and they were very tasty and addictive. My son decided on the linguini carbonara, although not a classic carbonara dish, it remains one of his favorites. I tried it and it was creamy, indulgent, fresh, and the pasta was perfectly cooked. I chose the gnocchi with in house made bolognese sauce topped with ricotta cheese. I loved it and it tasted even better heated up the next day. Entrees come with a choice of soup or salad; he went with the salad and I had the homemade Italian wedding soup. We were both pleased with our choices. The portions were quite generous, service was on point all evening, and the entire establishment and restrooms were immaculately clean and well organized. Large parking lot, but heard it fills up fast at this popular spot. I highly recommend and look forward to returning.

    Met up with some family tonight. Haven't seen in years. We had a wonderful time outside o their patio. Perfect weather. We were in the shade, not too hot or chilly, just perfect. Our waitress, Jessica was so pleasant. She gave us glasses of water, and came back to take our drink order. And later took our food order. Great place to get together with family or friends. I ordered the tiramisu martini. Beautifully made. Taste just like a liquid tiramisu, and chocolate. My Cobb salad was gorgeous. I loved the toppings. Crispy bacon bites, avocado, grape tomatoes, blue cheese hard boiled egg slices. Beautiful crispy fresh salad. Enjoyed everything I had

    Food, service and ambience were all on-point. I love that DaVinci's is in an old mill. Our server was friendly and accommodating. My son and I had a few local brews while enjoying the calamari app, bread and butter. The peppers in the calamari added that extra pop of flavor.

    As visitors from out of state, this was only our second dinner at this eatery (the first time was the winter of 2010!), and it was as great as we remembered. The building is a refurbished mill, immaculately restored, and while voices are everywhere, you don't have to yell to have a conversation. Warm woods and soft lighting make it super cozy, especially in the dark of winter, which it was on our first visit. There is a good parking lot directly across the street from the entrance. Spencer is an amazing server - polished and witty, and he delivered our experience with panache. The servings are VERY generous. Our salads (beet salad, and cranberry walnut) were entree sized, and I love that, but others might prefer to share it between two people. The lettuce was extremely tender yet crispy. And, vegetarians rejoice, it is no problem to hold the bacon on the cranberry walnut salad. They were so beautiful when they arrived, we were halfway through them before we realized I had failed to take pictures. The same occurred when we had the tiramisu for dessert! However, I did get my wits about me to capture pictures of the entrées. The pizza was delicious, but it wasn't a classic Marguerita; it was made with a lot of standard mozzarella instead of slices of fresh mozzarella. But the crust was light and had a great texture.

    Garlic knots were satisfying

    The positive experience started with me calling to make a reservation. She was very nice and it sounded busy and they were able to accommodate a table for 4 people at 4pm (don't judge, I like an early dinner LOL) I thought, would it really be that busy on a Tuesday?....Well when we left at 6pm, there was a wait and the place was packed, including the parking area - people followed us to our spot to wait for us to leave. There is a great parking lot just across the street - 2 hr max which is just about right for eating at DaVinci's - service is quick. The only thing that slowed us down, was the fact I was having a hard time choosing my food and drink because there were so many great options to choose from. I think they had at least 25 local beers on draft and in bottles. Our service was very sweet and patient and smiled the entire time. One of the most pleasant servers I have encountered lately. I had a great great IPA from the draft list - Pulp Truck by Marsh Island Brewing. It was fresh for sure. Drank the tall size, almost too quickly. LOL We enjoyed garlic knots while we waited (briefly) for our calamari appetizer. There were plenty for the table to enjoy with the deliciously seasoned olive oil for dipping. The calamari appetizer was crispy and delicious with the balsamic drizzle. Our meals came out about 15minutes later which was perfect timing as I batted clean up on the apps for the table. YUM! I ordered the Linguine Carbonara with chicken - it was perfectly cooked and plated!!! I wish there was an option for a poached egg on top. It was perfect though and would absolutely get it again. I will enjoy my leftovers today - because the portions were definitely large. Everyone in my group enjoyed their dishes, Chicken Parm, Ravioli and Veal Parm. When we walked in I noticed the dessert case, so I made sure, I kind of saved room for it. LOL Actually I just over ate. I ordered the monster cheesecake and it was totally worth it. It was creamy and delicious. I didn't want to share, but I did share one bite with my husband. We were able to split the check with ease - no hassle and in fact she offered to do it before we had to ask. Our checks were processed fast as well. Every part of our experience was great. I look forward to returning when we are back in the area.

What are they famous for you ask? Well, seafood...of course. Specifically, the lobster roll. My boyfriend loves the lobster roll! I had the popcorn chicken basket with crinkle fries that I could eat everyday if given the choice. The seasoning and breading are just right & fried until golden brown without sacrificing safe cooking or flavor. Another one of those busy places-it's a restaurant that attracts locals and tourists. They've always got inspirational quotes on their marquee. Outdoor patio seating (tables with umbrellas) and a no-frills, basic interior decor. Gives total seaside vibes.

They have the option for ordering takeout Ahead of time or online. There is significant outdoor seatting as well as a small interior dining room. The interior has one non gender handicap, accessible bathroom. The menu is not excessive, but the portions are generous. CAUTION: pay close attention to the prices. they will fluctuate and you should not assume what the final cost of your meal will be beforehand!! My clam basket and my daughter's 1/4lb roll (2 20 Oz drinks) totaled $65!! Now I will absolutely give credit to them for the clam portion being large and high quality. These were the type of onion rings that I prefer, which are thinner and more crunchy with less batter. That said, the total completely blew my mind.Because even with a very industry standard upcharge for onion rings in place of french fries.I had sticker shock. I grew up near Portland so I understand the price of seafood can change quickly. But I would say do some price shopping. Because this is more about the experience of the location since the quality of food does exist at other restaurants.In maine.

I've gotten hit on by the bartender who proceeded to get my order wrong and tell the random man standing next to me that "chicks can be so god damn annoying" when I asked him to grab the drink I ordered from the fridge behind him.

Scrunchies still adorning the copper highlighted ponytails of overly tanned women in their thirties. Everyone slightly off and no one fashionable except the musicians, clearly high timing in a small town, fedoras just so.

Mr bluesman you are correct, here in this dark, seedy, working class dive where all that matters is your improvised words, notes, sonic bliss... Sold for free to the tired citizens of a worn out, angelic town, built on industry, dripping with soul. Reverberate off the walls, this old bar, the cathedral across the street. Reverberate the two odd centuries of strife, of worn hands, of working the mills. Lewiston has the blues.
