I was driving past and thought I'd stop for a quick bite to eat. When I entered the waitress welcomed me and told me I can sit wherever. Then she came over, dropped off the menu and shared the specials of the day informing me that on Tuesday is $2 taco night and they have three different types to choose from. I told her I'd like one of each please (thinking they would be small tacos). She did say you might want to hold off ordering anything else because they are a nice size. I'm so glad she shared the specials with me and warned me about their size. I am not usually a fish taco fan but it was delicious and the Italian taco was really tasty too. If I ordered again I would've only ordered the two and left out the ground beef taco because it's a common type and I thought it was good but not great like the other two. Atmosphere was nice and chill, service was great and food was really tasty. For the 3 tacos and water, my bill came to $6 and change plus tip. I highly recommend if you want a great meal for a good price. If you find yourself in this area you should definitely give it a try especially on Tuesday nights for their $2 taco special. They did have Corona and Margarita specials too, which I normally would get, but I had a two hour drive remaining so I didn't get either drink special.

We drove past this and thought..."Yeap...let's go try it!" SO glad we did. From running into a customer in the parking lot who said we would NOT be disappointed and would love every bit of Chuck's food, to the service to Chuck's food...it was great. The special of the day was a Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich and it was great...we split that and a BLT and were, true to the parking lot lady's word, NOT disappointed! It was terrific and while we won't be in town much longer, we sure hope we can make it back again. We highly recommend this local neighborhood bar where all the bar patrons turn and look to see who is walking in the door and then returns to their drinks and chatter! FUN! PS...we went back for another cheesesteak sandwich before we left the area and sat at the bar....we're regulars now!

Our 1st time this month, since returning from vacation. Thursdays special Ten dollar Cheese steak. Great food and amusement on the television. We will return again before the end of September. We have never been disappointed.

We always enjoy our meals here. I like stopping in to grab a bite to eat and watch the Orioles game on one of their several TVs. They also have the best steamed crabs around!
