I was surprised there was no line and a table available inside; there's 3 tables and a few stools at the counter. I had the bagel and lox with coffee. All of it was great.

This little spot has been a great Italian sandwich location since I was in high school here, and…read moreI'm not young! Formerly known as Zecchino's and now Metcalf's, the sandwich quality was as excellent this week as it was 25+ years ago. Keeping a winning formula over time is not easy to accomplish, so this tells you something about the sandwich tradition that has been established. Service was a bit on the slow side, but once the sandwiches came my niece, nephew, and I were very happy (I got many great uncle points for going here). We didn't order anything adventurous, just basic meat and cheese variations, but the bread was terrific, veggie toppings fine, the oil and vinegar splashed just right, and all was right in the world. We walked a couple of minutes with our sandwiches to find a riverside picnic table in the charming village of Damariscotta. I was very happy to make a long overdue return visit and also, counter to what another reviewer said about COVID safety, the staff all had masks on and social distancing was enforced via orders placed outside on the deck. My niece and nephew now want to make this an annual pilgrimage!

We ordered the lox everything bagel, a bacon, egg, and cheese on an English muffin, and a couple of iced chai tea lattes. Everything was delicious, the portions were perfect for the price, and the service was incredibly quick. The staff was friendly, the restaurant was spotless, and the whole experience was enjoyable from start to finish. One thing we really loved was the little gift shop attached to the restaurant. It was a fun place to browse while waiting for our food, with plenty of unique gifts and items to check out. It also seemed to be a favorite among the locals, which is always a great sign when you're looking for a quality place to eat instead of just following the crowds.

We've had Rockefeller many times at many places and they were always cooked more. These were more raw for sure. The menu was good though limited so we decided to order the smaller charcuterie board. It was fairly expensive we spent $100 for 2 and with one drink apiece, but an excellent assortment and very tasty. Service was excellent though not overly friendly just all business. Might return though not our top 10 choice for sure.

Was so looking forward to this visit. Very disappointed in the food selection. Since the renovation…read morethe vibe and atmosphere has changed. The manager gave us a hard time about changing the table saying there was no table available when the place was completely empty. He was going to seat us at a table that would not have been large enough for our food and drinks. There were three of us. He eventually agreed to change our table to the porch. There also needs to be more options! What happened to the delicious burger? The BLT was completely overpacked with bacon that it was virtually impossible to cut and eat. The Parma ham sandwich, heirloom tomato salad and the potato wedges were good. We eat at some of the best restaurants in mid-coast Maine and would not make plans to return in the future unless they add some additional options and maybe a manager that has a more pleasant attitude.

I can't wait to go back and get it again. The only bad thing about this place is that they don't post a list of their flavors with descriptions. How hard would that be? It is annoying to see lots of flavors with names that you have no idea what they are.

Their more typical flavors are about on par with other local independent ice cream shops. I've heard rumors that the quality tanked after the owner left. Maybe this is why. What makes this place special is how it's ingrained into the landscape. The view from the back patio is one of the coolest of any place I've ever been. It's worth a stop just for that.
