  I love this small business and as a small business owner myself, I appreciate good , honest people offering a good product ( there are many here) with excellent service.
  When our family stepped in, the owner immediately greeted us with a smile and said to sit anywhere.
  We sat down at a booth ( 5 people). The owner came over and offered us a chair to be more comfortable. She was so accommodating and genuine.
  In another review there was criticism of the side room where there is a pool table and that the bar had an odd tiki bar theme.
  This is because the owner spends so much time in bringing out their best products : their foods in quality and freshness that they " overlook" on other aspects. This owner wants to please everyone who comes in including children so she offers a "playroom" for the children. There is nothing wrong with that.  Having a bar and being able to offer a beer to patrons, nothing wrong with that either.
  Now their food:
  House pizza was fresh with quality ingredients . The crust was awesome light and crisp not soggy after all that toppings ( see picture).
  Cheese and steak : filled with meat and the bread was soft.
  The Cobb salad was good with chunks of chicken and feta cheese. It was missing tomatoes, cucumber and hard boiled eggs but was nevertheless a good salad.
  The chicken pesto fettuccini was good with chunks of tender chicken and pasta was cooked perfectly.
  Yes I had a bite of everything!
  Overall will come back for their pizza! Love that crust!

  Kozeta's is back open after the devastating fire shut them down a while back! The remodeled dining area is setup even better than before. There is still plenty of on-site parking. The staff is just as friendly and inviting as they ever were and the food is full of flavor! My pastrami sandwich had a generous amount of melted provolone on top and you could tell it was made on a fresh sub roll. When you bit into the delicious  bread it had the perfect balance of soft on the inside but toasted on the outside. Sometimes when you get toasted sandwiches they crumble or fall apart while you are eating them because the bread wasn't completely fresh to begin with and they are over-toasted. Not here! My daughters got a pepperoni and hamburg calzone. Again, nothing but yummy. I do have one critique though. The calzone didn't have any height to it. It wasn't filled like you'd normally expect one to be. It was more like a stuffed pizza and not as big as a traditional calzone. My 10 year old was able to eat the whole thing within minutes because it was the size of 3 slices of a 10 inch pizza.

  I drove by recently and they are remodeling after the fire.  Hoping to open again soon!

  The food here is really really good! Its all made from scratch and Kozeta's is a family owned business (the best kind).
  
  I moved to Westbrook from Portland not long ago and soon realized most of the pizza found in Westbrook is terrible. So glad I found Kozeta's (on yelp) because it has become my go-to for take out.
  
  I have also dined-in twice but wasn't impressed with the atmosphere or service. It is extremely blue-collar without being trendy or hipster if that makes sense. The booths, tables, bar and floors have seen better days. The highest quality bottled beer you are going to get is a Corona. There are TVs in the back playing sports.
  
  The waitress we had was very overwhelmed with just a few tables and was not very polite. She was obviously very inexperienced. The owner, however, is extremely polite and really cares about her business.
  
  My favorites are the greek pizza and the egglplant parm sub. Prices are VERY reasonable and the food is high-quality. With some improvements to the establishment itself, this could be a very successful business.
  
  Hope to stop in for breakfast soon! (Served every day!)

  Don't let the outside fool you! The inside is bright and festive and the friendly owners make you feel right at ease and treat you like family.
  
  I tried the the Cobb Salad & Teriyaki Chicken Pizza.  The presentation of the salad was amazing and everything was really fresh. It was great to not have to pick off a lot of extra stuff off my salad-only thing I missed was the egg. Pizza was amazing. Chicken was not too strong & still crisp.
  
  Give it a try. You will not be disappointed.
