" I visited Papa Gambino's on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. Their garlic knots were delightful; warm and flavored just right. I had the chicken parmesan sandwich, and it was huge! I felt stuffed by the time I was halfway through. Service was quick, making it a convenient lunch spot for someone on-the-go. I’ll be recommending this place to my friends whenever they’re in Bangor! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wish I could give more than five stars for the pizza here! The ingredients taste so fresh. I had the garlic and herb pizza, and I was genuinely impressed with how flavorful it was. The pesto sauce was remarkably good, and I'm not a huge fan! The atmosphere is relaxed, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" Papa Gambino's has been my go-to place whenever I'm in Bangor. The variety of pizzas and sandwiches keeps me coming back. Honestly, I've never had a bad experience here! The servings are generous and well-priced. I love their fresh ingredients and the little touches they add, like fresh basil on their Margherita pizza. If you're around, don’t miss out! This is a local treasure. " (*Curated Review*)

" Papa Gambino’s was the best pizza place I've been to on my trip! I loved their chicken Alfredo pizza. It was creamy and packed with flavor. Portions were plentiful - I could barely finish my slice! The staff were friendly and made recommendations that were helpful. If you're ever in town, check this place out. A solid addition to the local dining scene. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Papa Gambino's with my family. This place used to be our go-to for Italian food, but there’s been a noticeable decline in quality over the years. The pizza we received was lukewarm and lacked flavor, like it had been sitting too long. The toppings seemed skimpy and did not justify the price we paid. The service was okay, the staff was friendly but harried. Not sure I’d return unless I hear of some improvements. Disappointing for a place I used to love. " (*Curated Review*)

" I think I have finally found my favorite sub shop! Stopped here on a road trip and was delighted by the size and taste of their Italian sub. Everything was fresh and well-prepared. I loved the generous portion of meat and veggies. The environment felt welcoming and casual, perfect for enjoying a quick meal with good company. I could easily see this becoming a regular stop whenever I'm in it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’d heard so much about Papa Gambino's that I finally had to give it a try. The pizza did not disappoint! It had that perfect balance of cheese and sauce that made every bite magical! My only advice is to go early if you want to snag a table because it really fills up quickly. It's safe to say that I will be back for more delectable pizza pizzas soon. " (*Curated Review*)
