But those creamy Gouda grits really brought the plate together--rich, smooth, cheesy, and full of flavor. The peaceful Sunday brunch atmosphere made the experience even better.

Quantico Gardens definitely earned this Southerner's approval!

I was rerouted due to 95 northbound was back up and as I was driving on Rt. 1 (Richmond Hwy) I…read morenotice this place with a banner label bbq (formerly Globe and Laurel) now Quantico Gardens. The exterior has the same structure with plenty of parking lot but the rear of the restaurant has made it into a friendly outdoor sport arena. The interior was gutted out and transformed. Some areas of the restaurant are still split into sections and separate from the restaurant. Three items were ordered: 1) Smashed burger with potato wedges 2) Pulled Pork Sandwich with fries 3) Peach Cobbler. The burger was tender and delicious but the potato wedges were interesting. They were basically a whole baked potato which were cut into four pieces lengthwise. They were bland and not crispy. When their pulled pork sandwich arrived to the table, it was bland as well. When asked where is the sauce and cole slaw, server Destiny stated that it doesn't come with any sauce or slaw even though the menu clearly shows it. I didn't argued and just continue to eat quietly. I was excited about their peach cobbler but unfortunately it fell flat for me. It tastes like they scooped out bread pudding, topped with canned peaches and pressed down in the mold ring. It too was bland and dry. There wasn't any sauce or moisture to this dessert. I really wanted for these items to soar with flying colors. The server Destiny and staff members was friendly and attentive. The restaurant was clean and wasn't filled with patches or any other military affiliation decorations as noted on the walls according to the website. I will make another future visit to try their bbq items.

This is the first time I saw this truck coming to our neighborhood, although it might have been…read morehere before but I missed it. Wasn't sure I wanted to have fried food at first but so glad I decided to try it anyway. It turned out to be one of the best food trucks we'd had. Ordered whiting with fries - the portion was huge with 3 pieces of fish in a tasty, dry and non greasy batter - which softened a bit on the way so not as crispy but still very good. As prices go it was a great deal at $10 - given the substantial amount of food I still had one piece of fish plus a bunch of fries left, enough for a bonus lunch tomorrow. Only thing for improvement: they should substitute paper containers for the styrofoam boxes which are not suitable for piping hot fried food like this as parts of the boxes were totally melted through by the heat.

After drooling over the plates that went by, we asked the owner to help us narrow down our options. We landed on the Chicharron Sampler for an appetizer. For our main courses, we had the Bandeja Paisa and the Paella Caribena. We were also eyeing the Dominican-style beef stew and the Sancocho Soup. We asked for a sample of the Sancocho soup and that's when we found out they make everything to order - including the soup! His wife went into the kitchen and whipped up a sample of the soup ... we didn't mind the wait for the sample as we knew she was working her magic! It did not disappoint. We ordered a large soup to go! It'll be cold later this week and this will be perfect in the rainy weather. This place reminds me of home - the way my mother cooks ... the flavors are developed and everything was cooked to perfection. I did a little dance in my chair with each bite! The portions were large - we'll have left overs for the next several days! And I CANNOT wait! We're looking forward to coming back and trying something new! PHOTO DISCLOSURE: We dove into the Chicharron Sampler before we took the photo. What you see is just a small portion of the actual serving size. Also, the photo of the soup was the made from scratch made to order sample of the Sancocho soup.
