    Pizza
    Vanessa S.

    We ate with this choice. The prices here are insanely good for the amount of food they give us. Like I mean the pizza is so stuffed with topping. This is definitely worth it. It is hands down the best hummus I've had. The service was good. They were all so kind and welcoming. I loved it. I'm coming back. They slayed.

    The Reuben and fries
    Rae G.

    I've gotten delivery from this eatery for a couple of years, and recently started dining in. It is very local to me and "Jimmy" the owner is frequently on site. The offerings are generally deli sandwiches and pizza. Ever since I started ordering from them I have been overwhelmed by the huge portions. Today I got a Reuben with fries and it covered an entire large plate. My husband got the New Yorker, which was always a favorite of my son's when he lived here. Even my husband could not finish his sandwich in one go. Most of my family got the chips, which are really tasty and seem homemade. They are a sort of thin waffle chip. My other son today got the Greek Burger and my daughter in law got the Chicken Gyro. Again, huge portions. On a previous visit they had a Greek special with chicken and rice. My son has been craving that since then although it hasn't reappeared on the menu when we've been in. The spanakopita, a Greek spinach and cheese filled pastry, is made from Jimmy's mother's recipe. She just passed away recently but Jimmy assures us she taught some of the kitchen staff to make it just as she did. I have had the spanakopita on several visits and it is stuffed full of spinach. That can be good or bad, depending on your affection for cooked spinach. The dining area is quite large as it used to be a nicely appointed Chinese restaurant for many years called Spring Garden and later Le Bamboo Bistro. There is no remnant of either of those previous eateries. This is a vinyl booths, claw and arcade machines, order at the counter family establishment. All of the staff that I have ever encountered are friendly, customer oriented and eager to please. I haven't ever been in for dinner but during the day there is a steady flow of customers and many families. The prices are moderate but to feed a family of 4 today the cost was about $65 for 4 sandwiches and drinks. So about $15 per person. That must be why the portions are so huge. I really wish many places would offer smaller options and charge less. But any place in Virginia that sells alcohol (they sell beer here) has to charge more for food to make up for that provision that food sales significantly exceed alcohol sales. If you are hungry for made to order, huge portions and a casual environment from a locally owned small business, bring your family, friends and your appetite to this Yorktown eatery.

    Punch card

    If you leave hungry it's your own fault. Food portions are very generous. The subs and sandwiches are packed. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. Don't forget to get the punch card. After 6 visits you get a free 12 inch sub.

    Greek Nachos
    Christina C.

    This place was really clean and welcoming! The customer service was very cheerful and inviting. You order at the register and seat yourself. I ordered the Greek nachos which were tasty, it had gyro beef/lamb meet with pita triangles, lettuce, tomato, onions and tzatziki sauce. My husband ordered a grilled chicken gyro, that's what I would order when we return because the chicken was seasoned well, and it was really fresh, and juicy! Inside it was kind of like a restaurant/sports bar because it had multiple tv's and tables and booths. Would definitely recommend!

    Cristina Cici B.

    Jimmy, forgive me for not coming in more often and for never reviewing... fresh and flavorful like the first time I stopped by, it's good to see things haven't changed. The chicken gyro was everything I needed. As we walked in, we were very pleasantly welcomed by someone who gave us a quick run down and some recommendations - turned out he was actually off the clock and was heading home for the day, but was kind enough to spare a few minutes for us to make sure we were looked after. Thank you! I loved the homemade waffle potato chips; a crunchy exterior similar to potato chips, few were soft in the middle - except for the larger chips, but they were delicious. I finished them all. The portion was huge. I'm not ashamed. The restaurant area was quiet for a 4pm on a Tuesday, but there were many take out orders being picked up, which very quickly has me adding JDG to my list of take out options, opa!

    Grilled Chicken Gyro Sandwich
    Chris P.

    It's a nice Greek style deli. The service was quick and we got our food shortly after ordering. They had tons of options, and also offered meat alternatives if you don't like beef or lamb for your gyro. I tried it with the grilled chicken and it was so good juicy and tender ! The spot is decently sized with some booth and table seating inside. If you like classic Greek gyros and sandwiches give this place a try you won't leave hungry!

That said, this is probably one of the best I've had, and it's from a small town of Hayes, tucked away in a corner of a shopping center. The pizza is a true large size with generous toppings. The pepperoni, sausage, meatball, green peppers, and mushrooms meld together perfectly. The dough has a great texture. The buffalo wings were also excellent, with just the right amount of kick without overpowering the palate. When I walked in for takeout, the server was very friendly and welcoming. The decor reminds me of old Italy, with influences of Roman Catholic design, including statues and rosary decor. They seem to have loyal customers, as they greeted them by name--which is well-deserved, given how excellent the food is. Now I have to compare every pizza to Franco's pizza--the new gold standard in my book!

The restaurants just do not do it. After calling several places closer to us, we eventually landed on Gerry's. It was difficult to find their menu online (much like the rest of Cape Charles). Gerry's is located right outside of the main drag of Cape Charles (I think) and the location is definitely easy to miss if you are driving at night. The building really sits on its own. Using the to-go window only (apparently they don't allow people inside right now) we picked up two sandwiches and a pizza. We were honestly just so thrilled to find a place in Cape Charles to get dinner that didn't require us to dine-in, especially after a super long car ride. I really enjoyed our shrimp pizza, which we ordered with white sauce. It comes with fresh mozzarella and garlic and is a really different type of pizza to order. We had it in the fridge for leftovers for days. It heated up surprisingly well. The gals working at Gerry's were nice and helpful and I think for the people that live here this is a solid local watering hole for pizza.

The menu is pretty much the same so we stuck with our old standbys. There were 4 of us and two ordered their favorite pizzas while another ordered chicken parm. 3 of us had salads but I was the only one who chose the antipasto. I also ordered the appetizer of chicken wings. Not much of a fan of them usually but had a yen for them. When they arrived I dropped my jaw. THEY WERE HUGE. I hadn't been aware that they were strictly buffalo wings but ordered the mild. I tried one but only after I ate my entree of the linguine with garlic & oil. Yum. I am happy to report that it's some of the best I've had. Lots and lots of garlic and the bowl isn't swimming in olive oil. After finishing that I was too full but ate one wing & brought the rest home. Now my only complaint is that all my food came out at once. That's not my idea of enjoying the restaurant. Salad first, appetizers and then entree. The way that was done doesn't allow you to savor your courses. While I'm enjoying my salad my wings and pasta are getting cold. Not ideal. The service was good, we were checked on regularly and the server was very attentive Thank you Sals for an enjoyable night out. It was a pleasure dining with you.
