We were able to find a table to eat in. The dining area is cozy with a fireplace and shelves full of stoneware, bowls, and other kitchenwares for purchase. We ordered the cheeseburger, hot chicken sandwich and fries. The burger was cooked perfectly with the in-house made burger sauce. My husband lived the thigh chicken meat buffalo sandwich. The buffalo chicken was not overly spicy but provided a nice heat. Fries were crispy and perfectly seasoned. On our way out we bought an American Waygu Denver steak, tallow, and lard which we cannot find at our local butcher. The steak cooked nicely in our cast iron but it was not a buttery or melt in your mouth as Japanese A5. I also recommend stopping by the coffee shop for a cup and pastries. The brown butter chocolate chip cookies was soft and delicious. The brownie was rich and decadent

My husband and i have ordered from here twice. We've tried hot honey chicken in a waffle, honey butter chicken, cheesesteak, and the fish sandwich. Definitely order a chicken sandwich if you go here!

So the hot mozzarella sticks are finally back--and yeah, they're exactly what I was waiting for…read more Super gooey, stuffed with cheese, and honestly messy in the best way. No complaints there. I also tried the buffalo chicken bites with slaw. The flavor is solid--good buffalo heat without going overboard--but the bites themselves felt a little inconsistent in size and crispiness. Some were perfect, others a bit soft like they sat for a minute too long. The slaw helped balance everything out though. The place itself is very modern and loud on purpose--graffiti-style walls, music blasting, more of a "hangout and vibe" spot than somewhere you're trying to have a quiet meal. Not bad, just depends on your mood. Pickup was smooth--my order was ready when I got there, and the staff were actually nice and helpful, not the rushed/checked-out vibe you sometimes get at busy spots. Only real critique: the music was a bit too loud for a pickup situation. I get the atmosphere they're going for, but it's borderline overwhelming if you're just grabbing food and leaving. Overall though, I'd come back. The mozzarella sticks alone are doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

After our trip to Valley View to get our annual overly expensive xmas ornament, we were hungry. We first tried a local pizza shop who rudely insisted that we could not use the table in their un-dining room, and when I mentioned that there was a DHC nearby Jeremy lit up. He LOVES Dave's Hot Chicken. The dining room was packed when we arrived, but was basically empty when we left. The restaurant is super clean, almost industrial. The food was prepared quickly and was delicious, as always. It was our friend Justin's first time at Spicy Dave's and he was incredibly pleased that we introduced him to it. I got my usual: the #4. Spiciness level somewhere in the middle. I think it's funny that they refer to their sandwich as a slider, when it's a very large sandwich. Delicious and filling. And the fries are magical. They're crinkle cut and seasoned, crisp on the outside, fluffy in the middle. And don't slouch on the Dave's Sauce. I put that stuff on everything, even at home. I'm pleased to see this chain popping up everywhere. We need one in Dundalk.

I walked in once at lunch time and the line was out the door, so I learned my lesson and called ahead. Person on the phone didn't tell me how long or gave me a number, however, i figured 10-15 minutes would be reasonable. Partner picked it up and said it was fairly busy. I ordered the Virginian sandwich - grilled turkey, coleslaw, swiss, and thousand island dressing on rye, partner ordered an italian cold cut. Both sandwiches were about $20 total, which is a decent price for lunch nowadays! my sandwich was a solid 8/10, I would say my partner felt the same about his. It's a simple, well-made sandwich. Nothing more, nothing less. I would rate them a 4.5 if i could, simply because these sandwiches were nothing to write home about. But, nonetheless, we both got what we wanted, and for the price, portion, and convenience, I would simply feel prissy giving them anything less than a 5.

Also, their Lemonade/Half&Half/Flavorade drink was exceptional, primarily because Mark brewed his own sugar syrup. She's right. I can't speak to the other items on the menu because I'm smitten by the Pit Beef. I live just inside the beltway. We usually call in the order, get in the car and by the time we get there, the food is ready. You can eat at the picnic table out front, or in your car. Sometimes we wait until we get back home. You've probably blown by Church Road a thousand times. Go west, one block. Charcoal Deli is on the right. And there's a hispanic grocery store right there in case you need to pick up a few things. Here's a picture all dressed up for Summer with the awnings and umbrellas.

We ordered two 16" pizzas--the Parmigiana Chicken and the Napoli--plus 14 wings. The wings were laughably small and wildly overpriced, but that doesn't even scratch the surface of how bad this experience was. I was excited to try this place. The reviews were glowing, the photos looked incredible, and we chose Bruno's specifically to celebrate New Year's Eve with my partner. What a mistake. Both pizzas were completely ruined. Burnt, tough, dry, and utterly flavorless. They looked nothing like the pictures in the reviews--almost no sauce, overcooked to the point of being inedible, and closer to stale cheesy cardboard than pizza. If this is "authentic," then authenticity has a serious problem. For a moment, we genuinely wondered if we had been given someone else's order or sent food from the wrong restaurant. But no--this was Bruno's. The same Bruno's people are apparently losing their minds over. What's most insulting is that someone saw these pizzas, knew they were overcooked, and sent them out anyway. Charging full price for food this bad feels deceptive at best. When you compare what we received to the photos other reviewers have posted, it honestly feels like a bait-and-switch. Never again. I'll happily drive to Pasta Mista in Towson from now on--the only place around here that seems to understand what pizza is actually supposed to be.
