Sausage eggs home fries muffin and side of scrapple.
Roy B.

Small restaurant with very little signage out front. I came here because of other reviews about homemade sausage patties. The sausage was not homemade patties and probably was Smithfield sausage patties. The scrapple was deep fried instead of pan fried. It is acceptable in most restaurants to do that but it becomes very greasy. Other than that the service was great on the food was very tasty. We probably have to accept some corner cutting with the problems restaurants are dealing with in this covid era. Uncle roy.

Get on your scooter and do a breakfast run to here! Great service, very clean, nice people and a great breakfast. Make sure to get the Sausage gravy over corn bread! This place also does BBQ. Looks like a great carry out menu too. We'll be back to check that out.

The Wagon Wheel is EVERYTHING a local, hometown eatery should be...and more. MUCH more. First...the family that runs it. Genuine and welcoming...making you feel as if you are visiting a friend's home for dinner. Under Chef Dean, this spot offers up MUCH more than your "standard" food. That starts with brisket or pulled pork nachos and a list of appetizers not to be missed. Extraordinarily good fried pickles with remoulade on the side. Onion rings done right. And smoked chicken wings to rival anything you would get at a high priced spot. As for entrees...you can pretty much throw a dart at the menu and come up with something delicious. Fall off the bone ribs, unique burgers, hearty meatloaf, an incredibly unique Cuban sandwich using pit ham and pulled pork in place of standard ingredients...everything that came to the table was delicious. Don't forget to check out the specials...like tender pit beef and fried chicken. Sides are no throwaway. Best potato salad I've had outside of my own. Perfect coleslaw. Great mac & cheese. If you're lucky...they'll have some of their Heath bar cake to top it off. We were here most recently for my husband's birthday with a group of friends. He had a serious accident over a month ago and is not able to walk or move a lot. This was his first change of scenery in a while...and they went above and beyond, putting up balloons and birthday tablecloths...and making sure he was comfortable. They also cater and deliver! Bottom line? The Wagon Wheel is worth a trip from wherever you are.

The pulled pork platter with cornbread and mac and cheese
Daisy A.

My fiancé and I really enjoyed ourselves here! The service was amazing and the food was so good. We started off with the fried pickle appetizer, the sauce that came with the appetizer was great. I had the pulled pork platter with cornbread and mac and cheese and I ate it all! It was delicious. I'm picky with my cornbread and the cornbread there was very good! My fiancé had the sampler and he loved everything on his plate. He wasn't able to eat the wing but it all was good. We finished off our dinner with chocolate ice cream. They are BYOB and we plan on going back. Their portions are big and you definitely get your money's worth with what you order. They make their BBQ sauce there - and that was very good as well. We had absolutely no complaints.

This is their idea of wings!!!  Not cut apart and still with feathers. Disgusting!!!!  Never again will I order from here.

Stay far, far away. When a med rare burger comes back well done, and it's painful to swallow the brisket b/c it's so dry, run the other way.

Girls' day turned girl evening and rightfully so. Netflix and chill with a house full of ladies…read more When the stomach started to growl it was easy for the token private chef friend to make the easiest and best recommendation. Full On Craft Eats. The Toast online ordering system was easy to navigate and adorned with pictures of every menu item. I could not get past the onion rings on the starter menu hoping they would taste as good as they looked. My friend offered to split the Slammin Salmon sandwich and onion rings since she has had it before and never finished the entire thing. I took her up on it and the order was placed. A quick ask for mom to grab it on the way home and the food made its way back quickly. WOW is all I can say. When you order food to go there is a level of expectation that it will not be as good as it is at the restaurant, especially fries and onion rings. But in this instance WOW. Talk about food that travels well. Fourteen minutes away and the food was still warm, the onion rings were so crisp, and the garlic and dill aioli and onion ring sauce were just right. The Slammin Salmon was served on ciabatta bread that was not too soft not too hard, with salmon cooked perfectly. The lemon dill aioli was a game changer so much that my friend's advice to order extra was well received and committed to memory. The onion rings lived up to the hype, cooked perfectly with a crust I cannot even explain. The kind you bite into without losing the entire onion from the breading. Dip it into the sauce and you have a match made in heaven. Half the sandwich was more than enough but the next day I would have loved some leftovers. Now for the extra razzle dazzle. I left to visit a friend in DC and sent him the menu, shared my experience and he was locked in to try. Online ordering was closed since they were closing at 10pm so I called as a last-ditch effort since the anticipation was already there. The nicest most warm individual answered ten minutes before closing and was more than happy to take my order. She even made sandwich recommendations. I quickly arrived at a shopping center that was easy to get in and out of. Walking in you immediately arrive at the counter and takeout area to your left with a nice bar area a short walk past on the right. The cooks and wait staff were having the best time using the 6/7 saying that was all over social media late last year. They were considerate when they noticed I was in the restaurant, but I assured them I loved their energy. I see why the food is so good because the energy shows it was made with great vibes and laughter all around. As I grabbed the bag to leave the hostess stopped me to add another fork and extra napkins since I would need them to add the pickled veggies on my sandwich. Such a nice touch. Thirty plus minutes to DC and the food still did not need to be reheated. The Mai Thai sandwich was a hit with flavors that married well and the onion rings delivered again. The Spicy Thai wings were good for wings but typical. They had a lot to compete with. Full On Craft Eats Annapolis, not to be confused with Rockville, is an experience you will want to repeat again and again. Good food fast that travels well (yes that is a thing). A great addition to any table worth gathering at. I did it twice in one day!!

Capo Italian Deli - Old Town Alexandria…read more I reviewed our new Old Town neighbor - Capo Italian Deli - early in 2026. Time for an update. The deli is outstanding. Taking up a tiny footprint on the N. Washington Avenue thoroughfare, a few seconds from King Street, the deli delivers both hot and cold deli entrees, soft drinks, and salads. There's maybe half a dozen tables inside and a couple of tables outside, but from what I have seen thus far, most of the trade is with carry-out service, drawing from the excellent reputation Capo brought with it as it arrived in Old Town (the restaurant has siblings in Shaw NW, and Western Market in the District, Tyson's Corner in Vienna, VA, Annapolis and Potomac, MD). Fresh Philly rolls for those seeking a traditional hero sandwich, with go-to seasonings and all of the essential protein groups. My favorite is a large half roast beef half turkey with lettuce, tomato, and mayo (I skip the Italian dressing, which is part of the default, and I skip the cheese). I can and have made this $18 sandwich last three meals (so I ask them to cut the sandwich into three pieces), and the ingredients stay fresh for the next 24 hours. The last time I did this the sandwich fed me from 4:45 a.m. to 9 p.m., as I served as an election officer at one of Alexandria's polling places. Neat, trim, and completely satisfying. Just a point of concern: given its location, the opportunity to double-park while picking up an order seems to be just too tempting. This location, however, cannot over the long term sustain double-parkers. The deli is about 100 feet from the intersection of King Street and N. Washington Street. There is a dedicated lane for cars seeking to park adjacent to the deli. And then there are two northbound lanes on N. Washington Street. That's it - just two lanes serving one of the busiest intersections in Old Town. If a delivery-service car pulls up alongside one of the parked cars, all hell will break loose by drivers who suddenly find a delivery vehicle double-parking in front of Capo, leaving but one northbound lane open for however long it takes for the delivery agent to gather the order and beat it out of there. This happens with remarkable frequency, starting at about 11 a.m. and running throughout the day. That's not going to make good neighbors of Capo's nearby shops. Alexandria Parking has its work cut out for it, but here the rule prohibiting double-parking has to be enforced - it's both a safety issue and an issue of common courtesy. Doesn't matter if you think you'll just be in and out of the deli in seconds. We know it doesn't work that way, not always, and here - not even often. More often than not the double-parker will be creating a traffic hazard just by parking alongside a parked car in front of the deli. Please, don't do this.

Their breakfast sandwiches are also delicious and made with really good-quality ingredients. We tried the egg, bacon, and avocado sandwich, and it was very tasty. They also have vegan and gluten-free, allergy-conscious cookies, which is a great option for those with dietary restrictions. In many of the sandwiches, you can substitute the regular cheese with vegan cheese, making it easy to customize your meal. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating, with the outdoor area right by the water. The outdoor seating area is well maintained and clean, and the bathroom was also very clean. Overall, the food is tasty, there are plenty of options for different dietary needs, and the waterfront seating is a nice bonus. Highly recommend checking this place out!

So far I've tried the California Powerhouse and the Turkey Club, and both were stacked with fresh ingredients. The portions are solid, and you can tell they're not skimping on anything. The Powerhouse came on a Kaiser roll and the club on white bread, and both held up really well. I've gotten fries on the side each time. They're cooked well, but they come out unsalted and a little bland on their own. That said, once you add some ketchup, they're perfectly fine and do the job. Service has been quick both times I went. I stopped by around 11:30 during the week (Thursday and Friday), and there was no line either time. From ordering to getting my food was about 5 minutes total, so it's definitely a solid option for a quick lunch. The shop itself is very clean and welcoming, and the staff has been friendly and helpful on both visits. Ordering is simple, though I did notice some of the same sandwich names listed in different sections with different prices, which was a little confusing. I meant to ask about it but forgot. They have a wide selection of deli-style sandwiches (hot and cold), plus cheesesteaks and burgers, which I haven't tried yet. For a sandwich, fries, and a drink, it's been a little over $18, but with the portion sizes and quality, I think it's worth it. I'll definitely be back. I'm especially interested in trying their breakfast since this area doesn't have a lot of strong breakfast spots, so I'm curious to see how they compare.

Great First Visit to Sunderland's New BBQ Spot…read more We heard about the new BBQ restaurant in Sunderland (Calvert County) on Facebook Friday, but we were out of town for the weekend. On our way home Sunday, my wife and I decided to stop in and give it a try. I had seen posts online saying people were waiting in line, so we were curious. When we pulled up, there wasn't a line outside, but once inside, there were a few people ahead of us ordering and some waiting on their food. While we waited, we overheard them call out that they were out of "The Hardesty" - a buttermilk fried pork chop sandwich. It must be popular because it sounded really good! The menu is impressive for a new place--11 sandwich options including: Ole Boy - Pulled pork shoulder Bossman - Chopped brisket (what I ordered) Balmer - Sliced charred beef with Vidalia onions & horseradish cream Dixie Chick - Pulled chicken Hardesty - Buttermilk fried pork chop on artisan white bread with sriracha mayo Bourdain - Grilled mortadella with provolone & dijonaise on brioche Italian Stallion - Salami, mortadella, ham, provolone, cherry peppers, lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, vinaigrette South Philly - Sliced ribeye with sautéed onions & provolone Chi Town - Braised ribeye with peppers, mushrooms, onions, provolone, sweet jalapeños, lettuce, tomato & vinaigrette Wrap & Roll - Crispy chicken Caesar wrap SBF Wings - Plain, mild, or hot Sides included boardwalk fries, potato salad, pasta salad, baked beans, coleslaw, kale, and a cucumber salad. My wife ordered the Italian Stallion and I went with the Bossman, plus a side of summer pasta salad to go. While we waited, we chatted with a woman putting out some condiments --turns out she was a family member and grabbing food. She mentioned everything is made to order and how proud they are of the quality. We didn't wait long for our food, although another woman we were talking with had ordered quite a bit earlier and was still waiting. Right before we left, someone announced they only had two orders of boardwalk fries left--they're definitely getting hit with a lot of traffic and selling out fast. A couple notes: it seemed like some sandwiches may have been pre-prepped because on ours the Bossman was marked with abbreviations on the wrapping. Also, my wife had asked for vinaigrette on the side for her sub, but it was already on it--not a big deal, just something for the staff to tighten up as they settle in. There are a few tables inside that you can dine in and eat if you choose. Dont know if they offer sit down service. As for the food: My Bossman sandwich was excellent--tender, flavorful brisket. The pasta salad wasn't my favorite and wasn't very cold when we got home, so I put it in the fridge--hoping I'll enjoy it more chilled. My wife really liked her Italian Stallion--lots of meat and great flavor. Overall, we were impressed. Definitely Outstanding above another mobile BBQ spot in the area. We'll absolutely be back--and next time, I hope to try that Hardesty sandwich before it sells out!

Definitely will be back to try more offerings.
