Well, if you are not from Maine, chances are you are not aware that a sub/ grinder is called an Italian around here. Amatos has the best in the business. Most of the locations are very clean. Their "Italian" consists of ham, cheese, veggies (no lettuce), and oil/ salt and pepper. They are usually packed during lunch time. They do serve other foods, including pasta, pizza, and salads. One note about the pizza: the veggies are cut very large. If you don't like chunks of veggies on your pizza, don't order it. They also have a yummy steak and pepper sub. There is always a good seleciton of chips and soda to compliment your meal.

Amato's serves the perfect ham italian. And plenty of other things too. But really, its the italian that will keep you coming back. My favorite part of an Amato's italian is the pickles. On some days, I would even be willing to drive all the way from Connecticut to Maine just to eat an Amatos pickle, I don't know why, but they're that good. Aside from italians, Amatos serves many other sandwiches, pizzas (not as good as Pat's, but none so bad either) and pastas. Their service is quick and friendly. At the Gorham shop there is a small dining area to eat in, so grab a soda, some chips and enjoy the Perfect Italian!
