I brought my niece and nephew to Great Wolf Lodge for the night, and we were looking for something good to eat nearby. After a quick Google search, Ercole's popped up, and it was only about 7 minutes away. Located in a small shopping strip, this quaint little shop instantly gives you all the New York vibes. The gentleman who took our order was incredibly patient, friendly, and hospitable. Customer service was a perfect 10/10. We ordered cheesesteaks and fries, and when our food was ready, he personally brought it to our table along with some complimentary bruschetta for us to try. Let me tell you, the bread they make for that bruschetta was absolutely amazing, the roasted tomatoes and fresh herbs absolutely woke up your taste buds with every bite. 10/10. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and made with care. I'll definitely be stopping by tomorrow before heading home to grab more. The cheesesteaks were packed full and incredibly flavorful an easy 9/10. The fries were delicious too, and the portions were very generous. Overall, this was an excellent experience from start to finish. If you're staying near Great Wolf Lodge or just passing through Perryville, I highly recommend giving Ercole's a try. It's definitely a place I'd visit again. read more

See all

Wait a minute...I wasn't familiar with your game but I surely learned...was looking for an ev charging station but then realized I needed lunch. Ercoles pizza sits at the opposite end of the Hollywood casino (maybe 8 min)...somehow I found there specials scrolling through the photos...a wiseman once told me if you want to rate a pizza place you have to try the cheese pizza...I called on the phone and made a pickup order up order for two cheese slice combos..:I showed up 10'minutes later and my order was packaged and ready. Two gents greeted me and thanked me for my business...I went to the car and took one bite and instantly knew I made the right choice....Ercole's keep making pizza like this and you have a fan for life read more

Really fast service with extremely good food, especially their bread. I would absolutely go here again and anybody that has not been here. You have to go here because it's the best place ever. So if you can come. Come whenever you can cause this is the best place but always come here again five star. read more

Wow. Just wow. Spent the day in Havre de grace, and was headed to a pizza chain when I happened to look this spot up. Food was fresh, well cooked, and made with care. Steak and cheese were amazing and excellent portions for a "small". Bruschetta bread was a meal in and of itself. Service was fast, friendly, and you can tell it's family owned and operated. Will make this a consistent stop when we are in the area. read more

The food and service were great and very reasonable. My son and I ended up having dinner here 2 nights straight. He loved the pizza and the cheesesteak and lasagna were good as well. Would highly recommend for good food at a decent price. read more

Delicious! Was visiting great wolf lodge and stopped at Ercole's. Had an amazing Stromboli. Highly recommend

This place was a gem in north east Maryland. A little hole in the wall restaurant that cranks out quality pizza and subs. The restaurant is small and has limited seating but is fine if you find a spot to sit. The service was friendly and welcoming to our party. I recommend if you are in the area or staying at Great Wolf Lodge. read more

Ercole's Pizza & Pasta - 14" Pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - Perryville, Maryland

My go to place. Quality food. Generous portions. Fast service always ready when I arrive. Needs more sit down space I would stay and eat rather than take out. Friendly. Great selection read more

We go there every time we stay in the upper Chesapeake bay area. They have the BEST subs, salads and pizzas around.

If you are staying at The Great Wolf Lodge, I can not recommend Ercole's Pizza and Pasta enough! Order pick up, or have it delivered, any way you want it, you must get it. The service there is so lovely and their pizza is delicious so you really can't go wrong. My family and I took a very short vacation to The Great Wolf Lodge in Perryville, Maryland. We didn't really want to spend an exorbitant amount of money at dinner (we already had lunch at the lodge), so we did a quick search of restaurants nearby. Ercole's popped up. Being from Jersey we thought, how good can Maryland pizza really be? Well, let me tell you... Ercole's does pizza right! It was delicious! And the price was right. My family and I devoured the pizza so I had no chance to take any pictures, but believe me, it was really very good. Thank you Ercole's for making dinner affordable (and absolutely delicious) while staying at The Great Wolf Lodge! read more

Ordered Pepperoni Pies from them on 2 seperate occasions, one with an Italian Special sub. Both times; the service was timely, I never had to wait at the register, the shop was always cleaned and well-kept. The Italian Special sub is one of the better subs I've had in a while. There's nothing I would change about it, if you're into Italian subs. Highly recommend. Their pizzas are on the thinner side, but authentic. Being from New York, it always brings me back when I got pizza from the city. read more

Stayed at Great Wolf Lodge and tried this place based on the reviews to save some money and find some better food. The reviews don't lie. This place has phenomenal food and wait was not long. read more

The owners are so nice! The pizza is perfect and thin, and the bruschetta is really good as well.

We got pizza, garlic bread, and salad. It was delicious, hot, and fresh. My kids want to go back to try the subs because they looked fantastic . read more

We ordered takeout from here while staying at Great Wolf Lodge. When I arrived to get our food, I was surprised to see about 5 older gentlemen working whom all appeared to be related. And they were! Not only that, but they are all from Italy. They told me that they've been in business at this location for 27 years, and now I know why! We ordered a plain cheese pizza and a ham and Turkey sub. The pizza was absolutely delicious; thin, crispy crust with a great cheese and sauce flavor combination. The sub was PACKED with meat and cheese. And the Ercole's (I assume that's their name) couldn't have been sweeter. Definitely check this place out if you're in the area!! Wish they were local to us. :) read more

Solid local Italian spot always makes great pizza and recently tried the bruschetta and it's a new favorite.

Love stopping here every time we're in the area. We appreciate the presence of Padre Pio.

Amazing!!!! This is what I call real pizza,I used to have a pizza spot like this by where I grew up in flushing queens called brother pizza....i wish I came across this spot earlier soooooo good read more

Just stopped in for a slice. I've never been here before but was coming through perryville and saw the reviews on yelp. Delicious!! Real New York style pizza and delicious bruschetta bread. Can't wait to cone back and try the dinner food. Really nice older gentleman working here. Very friendly read more

Wow a very authentic Italian Pizza and sub shop! We stopped here while staying at Great Wolf Lodge, although we dined in this is more of a takeout place. Regardless, we got hamburgers and cheesesteaks. Both were served on fresh rolls and were cooked quickly and perfectly. We didn't try the pizza but we will be back to try it! read more

Been here twice- once when getting carry out while staying at Great Wolf, and another when in the area for work. Both times pizza was solid. Second time around got a cheesesteak that had awesome flavor. Will go back when in the area read more

Staying at Great Wolf Ordered: Cheese pizza Special pizza Cheesesteak sub Meatball parm sub Everything was really really good. Family was happy. I highly recommend. read more

Tasty pizza and fries. The bruschetta is really delicious. Customer service is ok, they're normally pretty friendly and straight forward. I don't like the inconsistent pricing and the menu does not reflect that in store. read more

I truly enjoyed the meal I had at Ercole's. The pepperoni Stromboli I had was fantastic. I imagine that is the way they make it in Italy. Perhaps even better, the environment made me feel like I was in Italy. I would definitely go back if I'm in the area. read more

Very good sub. I ordered the Italian Special. This is Italian meats, lettuce, tomato, and onion on a soft hoagie roll from Liscio's. The roll was soft and chewy and did a nice job yielding to and complementing the sandwich filling. The meats were all fresh, well-portioned, and adequately shaved to nicely chewable thinness. The veggies were fresh. The provolone cheese was also thinly sliced and tasty. My one gripe was that the sandwich was slightly too acidic (vinegar) and lacked enough fat (mayo/bologna). Had they improved the fat/acid balance and added red hots instead of banana peppers (distract too much from the mouthfeel), this could be a very excellent submarine. read more

Ercole's Pizza & Pasta - Italian Special - Pizza Near Me - Perryville, Maryland

I've loved Ercole's since I was a teen when they Opened shop in Perryville...The good Ol'Days. Always great service and make you feel like family! read more

The food is good and the customer service. The only thing that is pretty odd to me is that one day through slices, one being pepperoni and a Pepsi is $11.13. Come in on another day it's $11.66. Not sure if it's just me but it doesn't up some red flags. Unfortunately, I won't be going back. Just make sure that if you are a minority, you ask them what their prices are upfront before paying. read more

We had a great experience last night with Ercole's Pizza. This family -run restaurant has friendly and quick service combined with delicious food. We chose the Garden Pizza over the Vegetable Pizza because of the eggplant. read more

Indulge yourself! The buffalo chicken pizza here is phenomenal, service is exceptional, and cannolis are awesome! read more

Ercole's Pizza & Pasta - The buffalo chicken pizza is just one of the many unique flavors Ercoles has to offer! Give this place a try and ask for this pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Perryville, Maryland

Amazing pizza and sandwiches! We stopped by during a stay at Great Wolf Lodge. We tried the calzone, Italian sub, meatball sub and an Italian roll (I think that's what it was called). Everything was delicious and the staff are friendly and welcoming. It's mostly a carry-out place, with only 4 tables. Good enough that I plan to stop back the next time I'm passing though on 95. read more

Amazing food! Love the Italian Special subway. The service is very very good. I've never been disappointed

It was authentic! During our visit to the Great Wolf, I was so tired of expensive and poor quality lunch inside the Wolf that I had to bring our dinner from outside. I am happy I came to this place. There is not much place here for a dine in. I picked up food from here. Buffalo chicken pizza was great. Their spinach roll was great too! read more

I am not a local, just by chance found this gem through a Google search for pizza in Perryville. I called to see if they'd deliver to Great Wolf and was informed they don't deliver. Ok, no problem. Placed my order over the phone for pickup. I get there and there's a crew of roughly 5 Italian (speaking) men. Ordered pizza, crab cakes and fries. Took it back to the room. Still nice and hot. Pizza was great. crab cakes were thin, but you get 3 on a bed of fries. They were pretty good too. I'd recommend this place ! Service was good. read more

Great food, quick service. You can sit in or take to go. Great prices too. Perfect place to go if you're staying at Great Wolf Lodge!

We've lived in NJ and New Haven and getting a solid sandwich was always effortless. We now live in Virginia, where it's more elusive- but travel up to NJ quite often. On a recent trip, with Yelp's help- we found Ercole's and will make a point to return in the future! The best cheese + veggie sub I've ever had. Liscio's bakery bread, provolone, black olives, sweet peppers and onions, shredded mozzarella and a little oil and spices. The sauce on the chicken parm- delicious too. Thank you! read more

Ercole's Pizza & Pasta - Veggie sub, chicken Parmesan and mozzarella sticks - Pizza Near Me - Perryville, Maryland

Very fast, fresh and homemade delicious. Food has authentic Italian taste, just like my Italian mother in law use to make.

If you want true Italian food and you are tired of olive tree and garden try ercoles the cooks are actually Italian and the food there is absolutely delicious, service up front is really good, and the ambiance is relaxing I love the smell of italian food and its a relaxing environment! read more

Delicious pizza! Couldn't be happier to have had it and will probably get another round of it before we leave. We are staying at great wolf lodge and this is way better than the junk they are serving there(cheaper too). Only 9 minutes away but def worth the drive. I wish this place was closer to my actual home. Little tip though, there's not much seating so I suggest a take out order and it's popular so expect a wait. Trust me, it's worth it. read more

That's damn good pizza. It was done pretty quickly too. You can tell they've been around for awhile and for good reason. Will be returning.
