Best Sub Places

We have been on a sub kick lately...here are a few of our favorites places:

 

 

Ponzetti's Pizza & Subs

Salisbury, MD

 

Of course, Ponzetti's is best known for it's pizza, but their subs are equally delicious. Peter got the cheesesteak and I got the cold cut. The onion rings were the best I have ever eaten! We've been going to this place for years, it's still as good (and busy) as ever!

 

 

 

Jersey Mike's Subs

Salisbury, MD

 

I got the Italian Cold Cut and Peter got the cheesesteak again. This sub was one of the best! Make sure to ask for it "Mike's way"! :O)

 

 

 

Tony Luke's

Ocean City, MD

 

We've seen it on the Food Network/Travel Channel and heard good things, so we were anxious to try. We got the traditional (grilled onions & whiz only). It was soooo good!! I'd still like to get to Philly someday to try the other famous cheesesteak places to compare (Geno's, Pat's...)! :O)

 

 

 

East Moon Japanese Steakhouse - Salisbury, MD

 

 During our Mom/Daughter get away last weekend, we had dinner at East Moon (a first for all three of us)...

 

 

We all wanted hibachi...

 

 

and Julie also added the cucumber/avocado/crab roll (which she said was delicious).

I tried it, but I'm still not a fan.

Back Street Grill - Salisbury, MD

 

 

We had lunch last week at Back Street Grill in Salisbury, MD. It's the sister restaurant to Riverside Grill in Pocomoke. Home of the "build your own" sandwich, amongst a huge variety of other delicious menu choices. We chose burgers, which were cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious! Peter chose the Seafood Jambalaya and I got the Cream of Crab Soup. Both were out-of-this-world good!!

 

 

About:

Mark & Leslie Reeves bought their first restaurant, Market Street Inn, in 1989 where our build-your-own style of menu became popular. These owner/operators took a brief break from the restaurant business from 2001 to 2007 to raise their children. They opened Back Street Grill in November of 2007, which they are still successfully operating and the customers enjoy the original check-off style menu and daily specials. We also have a sister restaurant, Riverside Grill, on the water in downtown Pocomoke City, MD. Our mid-town location and homemade food provide a comfortable atmosphere to socialize with friends and family.

Island Creamery - Chincoteague, VA

When in Chincoteague, you MUST have ice cream from Island Creamery!!

 

 

 

 

I had heard good things about the Cake Batter flavor, so a waffle-cone-cake-batter it is!

 

 

 

The one scoop was enough to feed several people

(but I managed to take care of it all myself!) :O)

 

 

There can be quite a line (we were there in August), but trust me, it's definitely worth any wait!!

Pico Taqueria - Chincoteague, VA

 

My family and I had lunch at Pico Taqueria last week. I was excited to try this place, as I had read lots of great reviews.

 

 

 

 

I read a little about the owners before going, so it was kindof cool "meeting" the four of them. What an awesome business they have.

 

 

I got the Chincoteague Classic lettuce, pico de gallo, cotja,

creme fraiche with chicken, the Cilantro Rice Pudding topped with fresh mango, and Daily Drink Special Limeade.

 

 

OMG! This lunch was amazing!!

 

 

Mom and Dad got.....

 

 

a beef, a fish, and a veggie taco and Chips and Salsa (which I sampled).

Julie got a chicken taco and The Chicken City

Blackened chicken, corn and black bean salsa, avacado cream, cotja.

I highly recommend Pico Taqueria!

The food, atmosphere, and service is awesome!!

Can't wait to go back..............

Hilda Crockett's Chesapeake House - Tangier Island, VA

In 1939, Hilda Crockett began her business providing home-cooked meals and lodging to visitors to Tangier Island. Her reputation for good food, warm hospitality and comfortable lodging were the secret to building a business that would continue for many years to come. She served thousands over the years - people coming from all over the world to eat her famous, home cooked, "family style" meals. Mrs. Crockett's three daughters later took over the Chesapeake House, until 2003, when natives Denny and Glenna Crockett, bought the business, carrying on the tradition of serving the same delicious home cooked food.

The Chesapeake House is an 8 room inn as well. Both dinner and breakfast are included in the room rates. Click on the website link for information on an overnight stay on the island.

I recently had another girl's day out with Wanda and Hope. We had discussed lunch options and had narrowed it down to a couple of options that we really wanted to try in Salisbury, MD. As we were paying for our purchases at Goose on the Roof (which btw, you must visit!), the cashier asked where we were having lunch. She suggested The Farmer's Wife, which was just up the road from their store. We decided to give it a try and absolutely loved it!!

 

Wanda got the Mandarin Orange Salad w/ grilled chicken, pecans, feta, and craisins.

 

I got the Cream of Crab soup (oops! no picture...I gobbled it down too fast!) and a chicken salad sandwich w/seasoned chips.



Hope got the Turkey Apple Panini - Oven Roasted Turkey, Brie Cheese, Apples, and Caramel Sauce on Sunflower Bread.



It was a hit, as was the rest of the food.



So, we had to have dessert.....

Lemon (the better of the two) and Peanut Butter Smith Island Cake!

Again.....I'll be back!!

 

 

 

 

Alaska Stand - Ocean City MD

Peter and I were in Ocean City last weekend and along with our must-do Thrashers french fries for lunch.....

we decided to give Alaska Stand a try.

 

Even though this place has been there for years, and I remember passing it many times, we had never tried it. We had seen a show on the Travel Channel about must-try places on the east coast. Thrashers won out for best fries and Alaska Stand was voted best burger. I then looked on TripAdvisor and the reviews were good there too, so we just had to give it a try. We split a burger and a chocolate shake (since we had just gobbled up a large bucket of fries!).

It definitely lived up to it's reputation. It was delicious!!!! The girls at the counter were the sweetest and the prices were reasonable. My new favorite thing: trying new places (especially if the Travel Channel recommends it).
