Wish there was more garlic and cheese but still good
Amy B.

This might be my new go to pizza place. The grandma pizza was amazing!! Garlic knots were good wish they had a little more garlic sauce would ask for more next time.

Exterior

Was in the area and decided to check this spot out! Interior looked nice and the menu was affordable. A slice of pizza is 2.99. So my type of spot. When placing the order we had asked for two slices of cheese. But once we got the box It was 3 slices of pepperoni, but we weren't mad though. We were actually glad to have It. My first bite into the pizza, I was like ahhh basic, but the more I ate It, the more flavor I consumed and It was amazing on my palette. From the crust to the sauce It was perfection. The crust even had a sweetness to It. Overall it's a cool mom and pop type of places with fellas holding the pizza oven down. Definitely would recommend them. Makes me wonder what's the difference between this spot and places in the Big Apple.

I picked up dinner the other night for my husband and I. We have ordered pizza here a few times in the past and loved it! It is definitely a popular place for pizza in the area. We ordered the Chesapeake wings. Delicious, maybe a tad too much seasoning but nothing you can't swipe off. I ordered the kid's chicken parmesan (shhh, I act like a kid sometimes!) I thought the portion was plenty for me. My husband ordered the Italian Sub. Definitely light on the meat. Although he would give it a great mark for flavor, he couldn't get past it only having one slice of each meat on it. We have tried Italian cold cut subs all over the place. Unfortunately, it is a common theme for them not to be super filled. I also got a side of fries. Nothing super fancy! Overall, the food here is delicious and I will continue to order and highly recommend checking them out.

16" pizza

Small pizza shop located in Giant's shopping center. The pizza was good. Nicely sauced. However, avoid their chicken wings!!! I cannot believe I paid money for these. They were dried and hard as a rock. Barely any meat left and overly seasoned! I've had bad wings but these definitely took the cake. I don't know if I'll try them again.

Ciro Scotto di Carlo has a banner of his (1978 Italian) passport on the wall. It seems that Ciro is proud of his food and happy to be in Pasadena, MD. Ordered a 16" sausage and peperoni, 1978 NYC pizza. Delivered to the table - hot and fast! Wow! check out the pics! This is one great pizza. The crust was thin and cooked perfect. Just the right amount of sauce (flavorful, not sweet). Correct balance of toppings. The sausage seemed to be thin sliced sausage links, and chucks of sausage (mild but very tasty). Good amount of pepperoni. I added some Italian seasonings, and pepper flake, perfect for me.... Ciro is a serious, hard working person, and it shows in his passion for his food. "I want to make sure everything is right and there are no mistakes" I always check the condiments cart to see if it is fresh and vibrant and clean. Yes 10-10-10. Attention to detail is evident. Looks like Ciro remembers the dream every day and I'm happy for it!... I usually just get the pizza, but I'm going to have to try that cheesesteak...

I don't know that the written word or a picture can do justice to Bubba it's California chicken. In…read moremy experience, it is the best tasting chicken I have ever had at a restaurant or someone's home. I I can say that at least 35 times, as that is how many times I have ordered it over the past 5+ years. Whatever it is they do to this chicken breast it is the juiciest, most tender and favorable chicken breast you will ever have the opportunity to eat. They have perfected the preparation and cooking of the breast. I highly recommend this dish to anyone that is looking for chicken perfection. I dare you not to agree and if you do not agree, your taste buds are defective.

I'd been meaning to check out Bubba's 33 for a while after finding it on Yelp. I was finally able…read moreto make it over with my wife and daughter for dinner, and it ended up being a really solid experience. The first thing that stood out was how big the place is. There are multiple seating areas, including a traditional dining section near the entrance, a large bar area in the middle, and another section in the back that has more of a patio vibe. Parking was also plentiful, which is always a plus. We started with the wings and got both the Cajun dry rub and garlic parmesan. Both were good, but the Cajun wings were definitely my favorite. For my meal, I ordered the Sunshine Burger with loaded fries. It was messy, but delicious. My wife got the salmon, and my daughter had the kids tenders. Everyone enjoyed their food, portions were generous, and the prices felt fair for what we got. Service was great throughout the meal. Our server checked in consistently, made sure we had everything we needed, and struck that perfect balance of being attentive without hovering. I also liked that we could pay right at the table when it was time to leave instead of waiting around for the check. What I liked most, though, was the atmosphere. It felt like a real sports bar. People were watching the games, reacting to big plays, talking sports, and genuinely having a good time. I've seen some people complain that it's loud, but that's kind of the point. If you're coming to watch a game, that's the energy you want. It reminded me of the type of place you'd find near a stadium. Nothing fancy, just good food, cold drinks, plenty of TVs, and a fun crowd. It seems to work for a lot of different occasions. You could come here with friends for game day, bring the family out to dinner, or even have a casual date night and enjoy the atmosphere. My entire evening was smooth from start to finish, and I'm already planning to come back with friends to catch a game.
