About Peter's Carryout

Peter's Carryout is a hidden gem that serves great food at an affordable price. The take-out is well done, with thoughtful touches like partially closed aluminum foil to keep fries crispy. The burger quality may not be top-tier, but it's satisfying and priced around $12.00. This family-friendly spot has a cozy atmosphere, with a small dine-in area and a lunch counter that offers a classic diner vibe. The service is generally good, with the owner treating customers like family. Customers praise the excellent steak and cheese, describing it as the best in the area and better than some places in Philly. The place is small, with a row of bar stools around the counter, and has a busy but efficient service. Although the atmosphere can be mixed—some find the service friendly and the vibe charming, while others feel it’s not as lively as other spots—the food quality remains high. Fast service and quick online ordering make it a convenient choice for those wanting a satisfying meal. With a wide range of options and the ability to customize, Peter's Carryout is a must-visit for locals.

I’ve lived in the DMV for 13 years and take visitors here. They love it. Not many greasy spoons this good still around and no greasy spoons with this atmosphere. Great staff and lots of regulars. If you’re in the area for lunch, grab a cheesesteak.
Wow wow wow! If I could give more stars, I would. The food is absolutely fantastic - you can't go wrong with whatever you order. Atmosphere is very neat and service is incredible. Great place and I will definitely be back!
Friendly, fast service, and the food was delicious! I stopped by around noon today, and there was a steady flow of customers, seemlingly both regulars and new. The nice, cold AC gave a good break from the summer heat. I heard some classic rock playing in the background. I had the steak and cheese add mushrooms with a side of Old Bay fries, plus two ice cold cups of water. I'll be back next time I'm in the area!
