    This is a hidden gem for fresh made pizza. Very nice and excellent customer service. The doors will close Dec 31st. If you want to try out a pizza, hurry up and go! It's worth it!

    I'm the pizza monster! So, I decided since I was in this area that I'd try this place out. Welp it was super bowl Sunday and they weren't busy. I should have known. First, it's cash only. What business does cash only these days? Anyhow, I got my pizzas. I thought it was going to be similar to Ledos and that is why I stopped but it wasn't anything I expected. Ledos is definitely better and I'm not sure I would come back here. The staff was nice so they get a star for that. The food was okay and edible but not anything that I'd write home about. So star for that. The establishment was clean, so giving them a star for that. The area is a bit scandalous but if you're from the city it's not that creepy.

    My family would frequently visit the location near Chesapeake Beach. Lots of memories and the food is just about how we remember it. Minus the pizza burgers? Not sure if this location had them in the past... The food was delivered all the way to Rockville and was still really delicious. The pizza and subs were great.

    I can't believe I have never done a review of Pizza Oven. They were a staple when I was growing up. Unfortunately, the one near my house closed down so the only one that's left is the one in Riverdale. The owner is the original owner as far as I know as well. Super nice guy. I ordered a plain pizza with extra cheese when I went there even though as a kid all we ever got was pepperoni and green peppers. But man, it took me back. Some of my favorite pizza of all time. The nostalgia factor is worth the trip.

    Just got a small pizza there. No taste. Cardboard machine made crust. Better off getting it from the grocery store. I expect hand tossed New York style pizza when I travel north.

    Food time travel. Once upon a time, when I was a child, the best pizza was at Pizza Oven. When I married and moved into a home of my own, the local delicious pizza was at the nearby Pizza Oven. Now all those Pizza Ovens are gone and only one remains. It is as I remember, wonderful and timeless.

    A step back in time, from the working rotary phone to CASH Only for your food purchase. Mr. Brian has been a Staple in the area for over 50 years. GREAT pizza with homemade crusts and hand shredded cheese. Reasonable prices throughout the menu.

    Decent thin crust pizza that's topped to order and ready in like 5 minutes. While you're waiting, enjoy the tons of kitch that line the walls and ceilings of the restaurant. It's even on the tables. Interesting. I liked it. Local business, speedily prepared and well topped. Not exactly my *favorite* pizza, but it was still quite good. It's right off the Baltimore-Washington Parkway. If the traffic sucks (and when doesn't it?), then make a stop here to wait it out.

    Wonderful collection of interesting memorabilia, from sports to music and Fireman hard hats

    We're from another area stuck at a nearby hotel because our home flooded. Checked Yelp and here we are. He's a pizza officionado, I like things clean and simple. SCORE! This pizza is sooo good. Not greasy, not soggy, not a bunch of bread dough and it stands up when cut. Not some floppy soggy mess. We also ordered a small tossed salad which was a nice collection of romaine, spinach and assorted veggies - with an excellent Bleu cheese. We ate there, only 4-6 booths, but after we ordered everything was brought to our table. Nice, quaint place with very polite and thoughtful staff. Our pizza took less than 20 minutes and we asked for crispy. The menu at this place is amazing, the website doesn't reflect this. They've got breakfast, soups, chili, gyros, chicken noodles (can't wait to return for those!) and a t-bone steak dinner for under $20. Then there are brownies and baklava on the counter to take along for dessert. Cash only, no alcohol, small but comfortable, unassuming and wonderful vibes.

    Pizza Oven was my favorite pizza restaurant growing up (in the 70s-80s), and it's great that it's still around. For those who are unfamiliar with a "Maryland-style pizza," this place is a landmark original. Prices are also incredibly low, considering the size and quality of the pizza. I try to come here every time I visit the area, and I finally brought my three kids from California, who also loved it. Be sure to sign their travel book and memorialize your visit. You could also spend an hour just checking out all the memorabilia adorning the walls.

    Insane amounts of kitsch.

    I am not going to review the food. It is not bad, but not mind blowing. You just need to go here to experience the overall decor and ambience. There are literally hundreds of baseball caps hanging all over the place, and craploads of memorabilia lining the joint. A pulled pork sandwich for $1.58? Okay, cool, I will take four. Right now, I am eating a loaded cheese steak, a hot mess, but real tasty, with surprisingly great bread. Brian Boileau started it in 1958 and at one point he had 14 other locations. He's probably in his late 70s. I hear him now bantering with the customers and workers. His restaurant is a living, evolving work of art and love. It has been here for 57 years, and I think you should, on this account alone, give it a try. It's the last of a dying breed around here.

    Terrible food. A frozen pizza is better. Cash only dirty old glasses. The only positive was leaving.

Like, the best foot massage you ever had, except it's chicken and waffles. It's like the masseuse has ten hands and they're all giving you the best flavors imaginable. For real y'all - this food is incredible. Service good. Relaxed and chill. Just order, kick back and enjoy an appropriately named legendary meal. A+ Out of this world good!

    Sunday 2/9/25 This…read morespot was brought to my attention due to Instagram, and I made sure to plan my visit after realizing how close it was to my dad's house. I called to order pickup, and the service was nice and friendly. Also, the spot is very reliable, as it's open until midnight and roughly 16 hours of the day, serving many different options, from fast food to comfort food. I ordered the combo over rice ($13), the Philly cheesesteak combo with French fries and lemonade ($15.49), five wings with one waffle ($13.49), and a carrot cake slice ($4). - The fried chicken wings were alright for your typical fast food chicken. - Waffle was decent: it was soft & fluffy. - The combo over rice was solid, and I liked the chicken the most. - Philly cheesesteak was okay and would've been even better if it had provolone instead of the cheese whiz. - French fries were solid: they were crispy with some seasoning on them. - The house-made lemonade was alright, and I would be open to getting it again. - The carrot cake isn't anything crazy, it's alright, but I do appreciate the $4 price tag cause others would charge double or more for a slice. Overall, the spot does a good job with fair pricing, fast comfort food, and reliable hours. I'd come back and recommend.

    This location has superb food all around, and I have never tasted anything I didn't love from this…read moreplace. However, if you plan to dine in the restaurant, be prepared for 80 degree heat and VERY loud music that you have to shout over in the dining area in order to have a conversation. When I asked, they turned it down. A little. Other than those discomforts, I found the restaurant to be incredibly friendly and welcoming, and full of happy customers anxiously waiting to taste their food, as well as bright and happy workers. It's clearly a local favorite, and not just for seafood lovers. The man who took our order was helpful and efficient, and he even noticed that we didn't hear our number called when the order was ready, so he left his post to come deliver it to us. The flounder sandwich is to die for, just as good as the one I had in Myrtle Beach! And the selection of sides is almost overwhelming. It really helps to go look at them before you decide, but everything was fresh and delicious, with huge portions, and they put the liquidy dishes into sealed containers that don't leak. I love the cheesy broccoli, the Mac and cheese (my kids love that the most!), and the cabbage with carrots. My friend said the black eyed peas were absolutely wonderful. I will continue to order delivery and carry out from this location, but for dining in, I will go to Laurel.

It taste like it was homemade which is a good thing! I like when my food taste fresh and natural or like something I would have made myself at home ( I love to cook! ), anyways the onion rings were also very crispy and good. You can choose your side with your meal or just get the sandwich. Overall the menu has a lot of options , so I am looking forward to trying there other seafood meals! Now moving along to the presentation, I really appreciated that I had everything I needed ( sauce utensils napkins in the bag) and my food was ready pretty quickly and the person that assisted me was cool, wasn't a long line I was in and out. I honestly had low expectations when I ordered from here, but after my pick up experience, my food packaging, and eating my meal I can say they blew my expectations out the water lol. Loved it and I want to try their salmon next!
