Chain Restaurant With 4 Locations in Maine Has Best Lasagna in U.S.
According to a recent report, this popular chain restaurant, with several locations in Maine, serves some of the best lasagna in America.
This isn't surprising since Maine is known for having many great restaurants, including Italian ones. No matter where you go in the Pine Tree State, you're sure to find delicious food. And, of course, at any Italian restaurant, you can expect to see lasagna on the menu.
But who exactly decides and determines which chain restaurants serve the best lasagna? Who is the expert in this case?
The publication ‘Eat This, Not That!’ compiled their list of the ‘10 Restaurant Chains Serving the Best Lasagna’ by focusing on popular restaurant chains across the U.S. that offer 'highly crave-able' versions of the dish.
‘Eat This, Not That!’ considered fan favorites and the quality of lasagna served at each location.
The list highlights restaurants as convenient options when folks don't have time to make lasagna at home or when frozen varieties don’t satisfy. Their goal was to showcase the best restaurant chains for enjoying this beloved dish.
So, which chain restaurant in Maine made the list of ‘10 Restaurant Chains Serving the Best Lasagna?’
Once again, according to ‘Eat This, Not That!’ and their list of ‘10 Restaurant Chains Serving the Best Lasagna,’ the only restaurant chain on the list that also has locations in Maine is the classic Olive Garden Italian Restaurant. ‘Eat This, Not That!’ had the following to say about their selection of Olive Garden:
Is any list of chains that serve the best lasagna really complete without Olive Garden? The Lasagna Classico has been a longtime staple at the Italian-American chain, and customers still can't get enough of it… The dish is prepared fresh daily with layers of pasta, parmesan, mozzarella, pecorino romano, and Olive Garden's homemade meat sauce. If you're feeling extra indulgent, Olive Garden also offers a fried version of its classic lasagna as an appetizer. The Lasagna Fritta features fried parmesan-breaded lasagna topped with parmesan cheese and meat sauce and served with creamy Alfredo sauce.
Maine has four Olive Garden Italian Restaurant locations: in Bangor, South Portland, Auburn, and Augusta.
What are your thoughts on Olive Garden being chosen as one of the places with the best lasagna in the country? We'd love to hear from you! Feel free to join the conversation by messaging us on the app.
