    If you go here for anything, it's the crab pretzel! That was my favorite dish! It's counter service so you must order on your own. They do get the food out to you quickly. It has cool sports memorabilia on the side of the restaurants with the booths but it wasn't my favorite place. It's pretty old and dated on the inside. Great place for a quick snack but I thought it was a bit pricey. It seems like a good idea for lunch or a quick dinner and I would definitely have the crab pretzel again!

    Crab Pretzel
    Rebecca G.

    After reading previous reviews, I decided to go with crab options. The crab pretzel is AMAZING. Since living on the east coast I have tried eating Maryland crab dishes expecting something wow and getting disappointed. But this, this is it! The pretzel is a large pretzel topped with their crab cake mixture. It is soft creamy and just the wow I was not expecting from a pizzeria. I also ordered the 3 stuffed shrimp. So it's butterflied shrimp stuffed with the crab cake mixture. I could only eat one shrimp and again wow.

    BLT Sandwich

    In town for work, here for lunch. Had the BLT and yes, it was fantastic! Loaded with nice crispy bacon! Good, service, didn't wait long for my BLT.

    I live in NJ. I visit Maryland pretty often and have their food often. The menu price in the large pizza that's on Yelp is wrong, it's not $12.95, it's $14.95. You can sign up for a membership on their site to get discounts and a present for your birthday. They get busy! If you order for pickup, don't be distracted by the people who are waiting for their food. Make sure to go to the counter, let them know you're picking up and pay. I've tried the pizza, mozz sticks, & sweet potato fries. Everything was good but not remarkable. They say that NJ pizza is better because of the crust, but honestly, I wasn't impressed with the cheese or sauce either, but it was fine. I hear good things about the cannoli & cheesecake! I've had their food a handful of times and have no complaints. I go here because it's convenient. If you're in the area, the food is decent.

    Love their pizzas!!

    Thank you all for your kindness & hospitality!!! Today I am trying the shrimp salad sub with zucchini sticks. Your pizzas are awesome! Everyone have a good day.

    They do crab cakes right in this spot. I can't come home without making a stop in there.

    Cheesesteak lunch special $12.99

    Came in for lunch with coworkers. Ordered a cheesesteak and it wasn't bad at all. You get a nice size sub for a lunch special. The employees and patrons were all very friendly. I suggest seasoning the steak as it was missing some elements. I've had their crab cake in the past and it was good. I'll give something else on the menu a try next visit! Thanks guys!

    Bad Italian sub
    Brian K.

    Tried the place out for lunch and was disappointed. The seating area is in need of an update and looks like it hasn't had any changes since the place opened. The sound level of the kitchen makes it almost unbearable to eat at the restaurant. The clanging of metal spatulas on the grill while they make steak and cheese is constant and extremely loud making it difficult to even have a conversation with someone sitting right next to you. I ordered an Italian sub and it was terrible in terms of taste, quality, value and engineering. When making it, they open the sub roll, lay it out flat then put the ingredients on both sides of the roll making it impossible to close it in order to pick it up to eat it....who does that? I won't be back.

    The food's good, but the (dine-in) restaurant needs a makeover. It looks old; it feels old.

When you walk in, the counter is usually filled with different pizzas available by the slice, and there always seems to be something new to try. You'll find everything from classic New York style slices to Sicilian, white pizzas, veggie options, meat loaded pizzas, fresh mozzarella and tomato combinations, specialty slices and some really creative options you don't see at every pizza shop. Everything always looks incredibly fresh too. And honestly, pizza is only part of the reason we love this place. Their lunch specials are one of the best values we've found locally. For $13.95, there is a rotating selection Monday through Friday with sandwiches, subs, wraps, salads and full pasta dishes. We recently tried the La Rustica sandwich with chicken cutlet, prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers, pesto and vodka sauce on homemade focaccia. The sandwich was HUGE, packed with ingredients and came with a generous portion of fresh cut fries. We also tried the Shrimp & Crab Fra Diavolo, and this is where the value really surprised us. It was an entire plate of penne in a spicy marinara with jumbo shrimp and real lump crabmeat. They absolutely did not skimp on the seafood either. Getting a fresh seafood pasta dish like that as part of a $13.95 lunch special is pretty incredible. Beyond the specials, they have a huge menu with Italian dishes, pasta, subs, sandwiches, salads, appetizers and plenty of other options. Even something like their bruschetta is loaded with fresh tomatoes, big pieces of fresh mozzarella, herbs and olive oil. There really is something here for almost everyone. Another thing that keeps us coming back is how fresh everything tastes. The ingredients actually stand out instead of everything tasting like generic pizza shop food. Their breads are especially good, the portions are generous and the food consistently comes out looking just as good as it tastes. The service has also always been wonderful with us. Everyone is welcoming and friendly, and because we come in fairly often, it has become one of those places where you genuinely feel happy walking through the door. The inside has a casual Italian pizzeria feel but is much nicer and more inviting than your typical grab and go pizza shop. There's plenty of seating, the colorful interior gives it personality, and you can sit down and have an actual meal just as easily as you can stop in for a quick slice. If you haven't been here in a while, especially if you're judging it based on older reviews, I really think Margherita's deserves another visit. Our experiences have been consistently great, and there's a reason we keep coming back. Great food, huge variety, generous portions, friendly service and some seriously good pizza.
