Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.
Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

Having lived in Lewiston for many years this was definitely one of my favorite places to eat. I remember back in the late 80's early 90's when we would eat there and listen to the jukebox. They have a great spaghetti dinner and their italians and fergies are awesome. The Fergie is by far my favorite sandwich. You can get it as one or two sandwiches. It's two slices of italian style bread with mayo, ham or turkey, onion, lettuce, tomato, and cheese. Take it to go and you got yourself a lunch and dinner. The interior to the place is an old school diner style and has a more modern jukebox now. The staff is great and they have been in the same location for decades now.

Luigi's Italian restaurant has been a staple in Lewiston Auburn area for my entire life. The Fergie as of the reviews of noted is a basic ham sandwich pulled off with finesse and style on a delicious bread baked locally at the Lewiston Bakery. I just went back after 10 years and it is the same. I think it is the bread that makes the sandwich.

When you go to Maine you should try an Italian sandwich. What is the difference...hmm many have asked that question. I think it is the bread. It is soft but holds its shape and does add to the flavor. Many locals have an opinion between Luiggi's and Sam's but I like the Fergie Sandwiches too (again for the bread). Get a large. If it is too much then share it or save it for later. The typical Italian is ham, green peppers, tomato, American cheese, onions, pickles, with salt/pepper and veggie oil. Skip the veggie oil if you will be traveling as the bread gets soggy. My family comes in from out of town and orders a few dozen to take on the road. The Fergie is ham, cheese, mayo, on a different time of Italian bread and it too is soft and yummy. A large is 2 sandwiches and a small is 1. Again, get the large. There meatballs are also yummy. I am a fan of just the meatballs or a meatball sub. They are soft and a good size so if you like a firm meatball you may not like the texture but I sure do. Their original pizza is the small one. This is about the size of a dinner plate. They put luncheon (ham) meat on all their pizzas so tell them if you want it or not. I like it with it as it adds to the flavor. This place has been renovated over the years but you will see familiar faces. It has the feel of a diner and can fit a small sized group and has booths and tables. There use to be a jut box but didn't look. This place is open late for those times when you need a late night fix.

Actually better than it looks, pizza was not greasy or slimy. And my brother enjoyed the FREE mystery meat that can be added to any pizza. No atmosphere, but friendly staff and decent prices. No liquor license, so no pizza and beer there.

Like stepping back in time but then all of Lewiston is like stepping back in time. The food here is very good. Their pizzas are thin crust and very good. The one wrinkle is that all pizzas come with ham on them unless you ask for it to be omitted. The white pizza is of note. There are two kinds one is a regular pizza without sauce and the addition of garlic oil. The other has pesto on it. I have never had the later but the former a delicious if you can take the oil. The meatball sub sandwich is very good. Served on an open face sub role with a big pile of cheese melted in the broiler. Mild tasting and goes down easy.

The spaghetti sauce was bland and lifeless like an abstinence singles weekend. The pizza is pressed, not tossed, and makes a frozen DiGiorno look good. The place is run by a bunch of kids who seem to be going through the motions, with about zero pride in what they drop into the boxes. The kid who took our order got it wrong. They keep the place clean. That's the best thing I can say about it. If this was the last pizza place in the world I'd still strongly consider ordering Chinese.

Very good. Comfort Italian. Has been around for 40+ years. The sauce is awesome. Had better pizza when they had the old ovens 15 years ago. Conveyor belt pizza - not a fan.

I spend a lot of time in this area for work and have driven past this place numerous times. To be honest it looks kind of like a whole in the wall, but turns out this place makes some really great food. Had a small regular mince meat pizza my first visit, came out piping hot with gooey cheese and great flavor. Also came with a drink, and I got a bag of chips all for about $5-$6.Had a pepperoni and green paper calzone my second visit, really enjoyed the dough to filling ratio. Dough was delicious and wasn't overwhelming. Would def eat here regularly for lunch. Always have lunch specials to.

I just LOVE their Italian sauce! They make very tasty Italian fare, including spaghetti, lasagna, subs, and sandwiches. Their signature FERGIE is a great and deliciously tasty. The hand-painted murals throughout the restaurant add a touch of Italy feeling.

The area isn't the nicest, nor is the facility, but the food is great. I've ordered pizza as well as their sandwiches, and you can't go wrong with either choice.

Wow, I bet it has been 20 years since I've been to Luiggi's (I'm one of those Mainers living in Exile in NC). It hasn't changed much in that time. When I was younger and lived in Maine, Luiggi's was the go to stop for Fergys to take fishing. My father and I went for lunch yesterday a enjoyed it. The Fergy hasn't changed much. A basic ham sandwich with tomato cheese, and lettuce on killer italian bread from the Italian Bakery in Lewiston. Nothing fancy, just plain good food. My dad had the spaghetti and meatballs and raved about the sauce. I have to say, the sauce was pretty good for dipping the italian bread in! The staff was young but, friendly and efficient. I'd happy we went back!

So this was on my list because my Bro-inlaw tells the story about how you go here and order a cheese pizza and it has meat on it. The only way to get it without is to say "cheese pizza with no meat". Gotta love that logic. So I got one of those cheese pizzas with the meat. The meat was in little squares one piece per slice of pie. It was some kind of lunchmeat not sure if it was ham, bologna or what. The pie it self was decent thin crust stuff. The place is funky because there is weird amateur painted mural throughout the place. You can see it in the pictures on here. I would say this place is okay but I ain't taking anyone there to impress 'em

We ordered a large veggie pizza, it was edible but hardly worth the $16. The vegetables were mostly canned, the dough was under cooked... just not good. If you're looking for pizza in Lewiston you'd be better off with frozen than this place. Or just get Thai food.

"All our pizzas are made with meat unless ordered otherwise." Yes, including the "cheese" pizza. Awesome. The "Fergy" ham sandwich was stellar --- it has a sense of "the ham sandwich you made yourself in the kitchen" that's completely lacking from most restaurant stacks. Not sure what it is --- bread? Mix of fillings? --- but it really feels homemade. The meatball sandwich reminds me of my first attempts at toaster-oven cooking --- open-face on two slices of sandwich bread (no torpedo rolls here), soaked with tomato sauce, topped with nicely browned mozzarella cheese. As to the classic Lewiston showdown: Sam's is good, but I'll take Luiggi's any day.

The Fergy.. Worked in this area for the 7 yrs and have not yet tried this place so one night on my way home I decided to go in to try their food. I love momma and poppa restaurants . For some reason I always associate mamma and papa restaurants with authentic foods with great taste and flavor. To my disappointment this is not the case. The legendary Fergy was nothing more than a plain ham sandwich with Italian bread. I feel that in order for small business to survive against chains such as the Olive Garden they must offer few great products with unique flavor with great taste in order to survive. I haven't tried any other dish here so I can't comment anything else but the Fergy.

Their pizza is awesome! There specials are great too since they change everyday! I love their mini pizza. So yummy! :) and I'm from Hawaii and this is the only pizza place I enjoy coming to and look forward to eating here when visiting

Not the best or even great. The service was not friendly, the staff didn't even crack a smile. Steak and cheese had zero flavor and so dry I has to choke it down. Daughters meatball sub tasted freezer burnt and sons pizza was tasteless and he threw it out. Place closes at 10:00 and while we were standing and trying to get ready to leave the staff literally turned the lights out on us at 10:02!! Giving two stars because the pastry was delicious, although, I hear they were not made there....
