    Leaving 5 stars as the food was fantastic. Three of us ate every bite. It's definitely a bit dated…read moreand it took awhile to get the food but we weren't in a big hurry so I won't knock them. We tried Governors first but they had a long wait we looked for something else. The Western omelette was great and the home fries were as good as I've ever had. Will definitely go back if in the area.

    We know about this place because it is a couple businesses down from Yard Goods, a knitting and…read morecraft store my wife can and does get lost in sometimes. I suspect The Villager would get a higher rating from me for a lunch meal, as I can be a tougher rater for breakfast. I cook some pretty good eggs and breakfast wraps, and my wife excels with several types of pancakes, etc., so it is hard for me to find something new and different on breakfast menus. We both had the skillet breakfast: she with fried eggs and bacon and me with scrambled eggs and sausage. It was not memorable. The home fries weren't browned enough for me and the only thing that was close to hot were the eggs, suggesting the meal had waited for them to be done. I don't think the sausage were brown and serve, but they were cut up in the dish and not noticeable. The Texas toast was cold. I would have preferred biscuits but I saw no sign of any. The coffee was fine and the service, all done by one busy lady with the owner helping out, was great. She was witty and humorously wiseass to her regulars. I will go back for lunch the next time the siren call of yarn and patterns strikes my wife, and will adjust my rating here if the lunch offerings impress me more, as I expect it will. Like I said, it is breakfast vs me usually, and I suspect you will think I have under valued it. If you like old fashioned family dining, run, Don walk, to this place.

    Was on a little road trip this past Sunday and we decided to stop in! Everything we tried was…read moredelish and the bartender we had who seemed somewhat new was great! If we are ever up in the area again we would stop again!

    To get to the point, this place is a hidden gem in Waterville. I came here for lunch last week…read morewhen I was in town to visit the art museum. I selected Opa because of the other great reviews and I like Mediterranean food. I was greeted with a warm welcome as soon as I came in and sat at the bar. I initially got a Greek coffee which was made to order, hot and delicious. Ava, the bartender, was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. I couldn't have asked for more. I ordered the falafel dish and was quickly brought a plate of warm bread and olives in oil. Both were outstanding! Looking over the menu, I noticed they had a few Greek wines so I asked Ava about one interesting one that had hints of fig and tobacco. She immediately poured me a sample to taste and it was delicious so I got a glass. My meal came and it too was really outstanding. Every bite was delicious. To add to my experience, Ava put the Bob Ross channel on the TV above the bar so I got my art experience too. Later, the chef came out and talked to me for a while about travelling to Greece to really study the cuisine. He was clearly continuing to immerse himself in the culture to further perfect his already highly skilled craft. I would highly recommend Opa. What a wonderful total experience.

    This was my se be cond visit to Holy Cannoli, and it was as good as the first one. They have a…read morevariety of made to order breakfast and lunch choices, including soups, salads and lasagnas, not to mention all their amazing sweets!! We were greeted by two friendly counter ladies who took our order. They accommodated my request for paper boxes versus plastic shell containers. My Stromboli was hot and ready and it didn't take long for my husband's sandwich to get made. Both were yummy!! Prices are average for the meals and I would say the sweets are very reasonably priced. The dining area is spacious and pleasant. They have high and standard tables. They sell three kinds of Maine coffee: CBD, Upta Camp and Mbingo mountain (roasted and packed in Waterville). It is located in the heart of downtown Waterville. The entrance has automated doors (press the blue button kind) and no steps. They are open everyday but Sunday!

    I love this place! I always try to come up with an excuse to be in the general area so that we MUST…read morestop in. It's counter service and it's pretty quick, even when it's busy. When it's slow, it's no the fault of the staff, it's the customers that are indecisive and waffling about their decisions. I admit, I was that waffle person ONCE...never again, because we know the flow and also our favorites. For ordering of sandwiches, deli orders, basically things that aren't premade in the glass case/counter...you must complete a paper slip. It's pretty great to be able to customize what you want without having to repeat yourself (which is something I hate doing). We have had sandwiches - quality bread and ingredients! We have had their calzone type of offerings - YUM! So good. I have tried many of their cheesecakes. They are delicious.. They are rich and decadent, as cheesecakes should be in my opinion. I loved all of them, I think the blueberry is my favorite followed by Heath Bar. We love all of their cookies and baked goods. One that will get us coming back, even if it is just for this cookie, are their ricotta cookies. They are so hearty, fluffy and delicious. I hesitated sharing that, because every time I share something, they are always sold out. Anyway...sharing is caring. The owner is super nice. The workers are more reserved and task oriented, so don't distract with conversation if they are busy! There are usually plenty of seats and tables, but it can get crowded when there is a show across the street..be warned. I highly recommend this business and food. Excellent!
