Anania's

I've eaten here a lot as I work just down the road. Usually it's good food and good service recently they have fallen. I got a large cheese steak today and it looks like they put the meat from a small cheese steak into a large bun. I confronted them and they said it's the same as it always has been. This is not correct. I will no longer eat here which is a shame because its convenient and I like supporting local businesses.

Anania’s in South Portland is horrible. The ones on Congress St and Washington Ave are great but the one on Broadway is a joke. The kids who work there don’t take any pride in the food they make. If you call they rarely answer. If you do get a hold of them, don’t tell them they made the sandwich wrong because they’ll pick a fight with you. I don’t know how management and the owners let this slide. The kids employed there are ruining your business and your reputation.

Only half a sandwich of meatballs for $8 and when you call to complain you get bitched at. Nothing but excuses from staff. Try giving what you charge for people. NOT recommended. $8 for a large sandwich with 3 small meatballs? This is what happens when owners allow kids to make food w less quality. Pass this place by.

I just ordered 2 clam cakes and a medium onion ring. The clam cakes had exactly 2 pieces of clam. One in each. The rest was whatever they use to make the clam cake. You could not eat with your hand as it fell completely apart when you picked it up. The onion rings were not fully cooked as you could taste the raw batter. I had to throw them away. I tried to eat part of the clam cake but it was just not edible. Both cakes and onion rings were very greasy. I never do reviews but this was just so bad. Tried to call but the phone just rang and rang and rang at 3:45 in the afternoon.

The best loaded steak and cheese sub! I added bacon and they put it on the bottom, so u get bacon in every bite! Was told 15 minutes, i arrived in 10 minutes and it was ready! Plus i got some sweets! Super Yum! I would suggest to future patrons: ask for your sub cut in half unless u like to eat a big sub altogether. Suggestion to business....bake your own sub rolls...if anything like ur baked goods...omg yum!

The night crew usually end up making sandwiches wrong and hard to get in contact with them atleast an hour before close to inform them that my food is wrong and now they're ignoring the phone soon before close. The food IS good when made correct. I prefer the Italians here more than Amatos and dipietros
