    Renaissance Lasagna

    The food was so good I could not believe the size of my lasagna I feel like I had leftovers for days!! It was very good

    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.

    Is there out door seating in the warmer weather?

    Hi Lindsay. Yes, we have patio seating! Once we stop getting multiple feet of snow dumped on us, that is. :-)

Reverberate the two odd centuries of strife, of worn hands, of working the mills. Lewiston has the blues.

We were surprised to see a pile of jalapeños included - maybe it's on the menu and we missed it. Corn bread was moist. I opted for a build your own burger which was great. No bun, lettuce and tomato. The waitress told me to just tell her what I wanted on it and she'd get it for me. Cool. She didn't tell me I would be charged an extra $1 for a tiny bit of spinach, and 75 cents each for grilled onions and mushrooms. Not cool. I definitely would have just selected an "already made" option. I asked for sautéed mushrooms and onions so was a little surprised to get deep fried shrooms. There were good - I would probably order, and even be willing to pay extra, for them again. My issue was not being told. The seasoned fries were really good. The iced tea and Hazy IPA were (of course) good. Our waitress was a bit too attentive. It seemed almost like every time we took a bite, she was asking if everything was okay. Maybe just check in a couple times over the course of the meal? Please do remember that 3 is not bad. For me, it's a solid average.

I love a place that will allow you to order all flats, I will happily pay extra for all flats. I won't even entertain eating the upper part of the wing, too many things happening up there. I always order my wings as chicken, flavored sawdust. I've had salmonella more than once from chicken wings, but I love them too much to stop eating them. These were cooked perfectly! The burger on special was a two patty smash burger with grilled pineapple pickle onions, and a sweet Thai chili aïoli. I added fresh jalapeño and got the aïoli on the side because I wanted to see what it was like. I was really happy. I got it on the side because there was flavorless. It was basically mayonnaise that they mixed sweet Thai sauce with and called aïoli. Also, if it's a sauce that I don't know, I don't trust it, I don't want it on anything before I try it. I think that should be like rule of thumb. But the burger was awesome, I got it with dirty sweet potato fries. Which means I put some Cajun seasoning on it so it had that sweet, salty, spicy element that I love so much. They also have this delicious French pear martini on the specials menu. It was fantastic, it was fresh, bright, not overbearing. I hope that stays on the menu for a minute because it was LOVELY.

What's the point of working downtown if all restaurant staff tips go to paying parking tickets?

Use a sticker on the window IDing cars exempt from payment to the garage. City of Lewiston, please step up and help hard working people not lose their tips to parking tickets.
