It was middle of week during off season so it was not very busy. Ordered waters to drink and our Red Lodge pie. I took a little bite to get pie but it came out very hot. There is parmesian cheese and red pepper on tables to spread on your food. My wife and I both thought the pie was lacking in flavor. We could hardly make out the individual vegie flavors and the chicken was bland. There seemed to be a good amount of ingredients on it and grust was medium thickness with good flavor. Service was good, several staff checked in with us during our meal.

Stopped here for lunch while passing through on business and was so glad I did! I walked in and…read moreinstantly smelled the delicious food. My waitress was very friendly and even brought me a surprise garlic knot to try as that's their most popular item. The restaurant was clean and beautifully decorated... I felt like I was sitting in a little slice of Italy right in good ol WV. I'd definitely go back to this place again!

The ambience of Mama Mia is a bit drab, somewhere between cafeteria and homely. The staff are all…read morequite pleasant. There's a pool table by the bar, and hit rock tunes playing over the speakers. It's approximately on par with what you would expect for small-town Italian with a bar. In contrast to the rest of the digs, the pizza was quite remarkable. The chef clearly puts great care into his pizza. Crunchy but airy crust with an appropriate thickness to it. The cheese blend was clearly chosen with care. And the tomato sauce beautifully wove the rest of the ingredients together. I'd highly recommend Mama Mia for a family wanting some pizza after a day out hiking or skiing. I'm certain it will be a lovely time.

We decided to visit Big John's because their website said they had gluten free pizza. However,…read morewhen we arrived, there was no gluten free ANYTHING other than a salad or ice cream that I would not trust enough for my daughter with celiac disease to eat. The place is run down, the arcade (also touted on their website) no longer exists, and seating was pretty limited. Robert Irvine could probably help the place a little... Given that we were in the middle of nowhere, West Virginia, the celiac had a soda and the rest of us had a variety of food from the small menu. The food was ok. My husband's burger was overcooked (the menu stated all burgers would be cooked to medium), my kids burger was pretty good. Our group also had fries (yummy), a milkshake, kids meal chicken tenders, and a chicken sub. Would I go back? No. Do they need to update their website? YES!!!! Was the food ok? Yeah.

Craft beers, nice decor, good food, great staff, good for a group…read more About 12 of us wanted a meal all together in McHenry MD, and we all like craft beer and pizza, so the Mountain State Brewing Co. restaurant was an easy choice. (Jun 2026). It's a large brew pub with a cabin-like décor, out Sang Run Road just north of Deep Creek Lake. There's a little carved bear by the front door, and a kid-size huggable bear at the host stand. Photo ops! And fun for the kids! They seated us quickly and our server was quick in taking beer orders. They have plenty of soft drinks, and we got Lemonade and Apple Juice, Orange Fanta (a favorite), and a pitcher of Mountain State's own creamy MSBC Root Beer - made here! Beer-wise, there were 16 draft crafts plus a couple of old standards to choose from on a paper menu or by looking at their website or QR-code. Most were around 5% ABV. We had Pennsylvania's full-flavored grassy citrusy mildly-bitter Victory Summer Love golden ale. We raided MSBC's just-west-of-here West Virginia brewery of their creamy malty lightly-bitter Miner's Daughter oatmeal stout, and a lightly-bitter caramel Almost Heaven amber ale. New York's Hudson North brewed us some summery sweet Salted Watermelon cider. And we had some from home: Columbia MD's Black Flag Snozzberry Haze: a fruity piney hazy IPA, standing up at 7% ABV. Baltimore's Mobtown Fever Dream, a creamy flavorful somewhat fruity IPA, punching at 7.4% ABV. And Baltimore's Wico Street Yeah Brah, a strongly-bitter double IPA, clobbering us with an 8.5% ABV! A wonderful fermented tour of the northeast! Get ready to say "yum" out loud... From their wide range of bar foods and appetizers, we had fresh crisp tortilla chips with their medium-spicy cream cheese and homemade-ranch baked Buffalo Chicken Dip, elevated with blue cheese on top and an add-on side of chipotle! They made their own fresh-Spinach & Artichoke Dip with fresh basil, roasted red peppers, and an extravagant blend of cream cheese, feta, mozzarella, asiago, parmesan, and cheddar jack. The giant soft crust Pretzels & homemade Beer Cheese were notably popular with the kids. Salads? Yep. Tasty Lemon Herb Chicken Salad, crisp and crunchy Caesar salad, house salad with requested black olives, and cole slaw. And sides of orange segments and raisin-like cranberries for the little ones. And on to the main feast :-). Simple fried chicken nuggets and off-the-menu Pepperoni Pizza to be sure the younger crowd was satisfied. The Boars Nest sandwich was overnight-tender pulled pork with tangy Carolina BBQ sauce and fresh crunchy cole slaw on a lightly-toasted brioche bun. The spicier "wilder" Wild Boar sandwich had that low-and-slow pulled-pork awakened with bright jalapeños and spicy Chipotle BBQ sauce, topped with provolone on that toasted yet pillowy brioche. The fresh Caprese sandwich had firm ripe Roma tomatoes, tender baby spinach, and fresh mozzarella with requested added chicken. It was all dressed with bright basil dressing, drizzled with tangy sweet balsamic glaze, on crisp and soft toasted Italian bread. A well-made classic caprese re-invented by MSBC as a bright crunchy sandwich! Everyone liked those classic crisp pepperoni pies. From their world-class pizza recipes, we had the Supreme: pepperoni, sausage, onions, green peppers, their cheese blend, and black olives, drizzled with fragrant fresh olive oil. And the vegetarian so-tasty-you-wouldn't-guess it-was-gluten-free Yard Sale pizza: marinated artichokes, prosciutto, mozzarella, with an olive oil & garlic base, sprinkled with fresh basil and a dash of freshly-cracked black pepper. Mountain State Brewing Co. gave us a memorable spread of great beers and delicious creative foods. You know we enjoyed leftovers the next day :-) Our terrific server Claire was ever-attentive, and between you and me, made it seem effortless to host our full table of hungry adults and kids. We'll be back, especially for their wide-ranging ever-changing draft list and those amazing pizzas!

Certainly not the service we have experienced over the past years.
