“I was a guest at a birthday celebration today. Our server was Brandy and she was awesome. There were appoximately 40+ attendees and she handled the entire group with ease and professionalism. As a side note the food was great!!“

“We have been dining here for years and always had a great experience. Recently I had 2 occasions to dine here in a large group setting. One was a reception after a funeral. The food was delicious and the staff very accommodating. The second was for a club meeting luncheon. Once again great food and service. I especially want to give kudos to Julianna. One member of our group has severe food allergies. Julianna was very diligent and she went out of her way to be sure there was no cross contamination in the kitchen. Can't say enough wonderful things about Libs‼️“

“We never have a bad experience ordering from Rincon, and our most recent order didn’t disappoint. While most places are raising their prices and lowering the amount of food you get, we noticed a slight increase in prices ($1 for my eggplant parm, and a few dollars for crab cakes), we unquestionably actually got MORE food. My eggplant parm was 3 large meals, and the crab cakes were huge, and full of big pieces of crab meat. Definitely the best deal in town.“

“Very good Pizza never a disappointment keep up the great work!“

“During a recent visit to Tony Pazzo in Mount Airy, Maryland, we had a fantastic dining experience that combined delicious food, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent service. With the playoff games playing at the bar, the restaurant had a lively, energetic vibe. Our high-top table in the dining room, close to the bar, offered a perfect blend of ambiance and comfort. We started with two standout appetizers: the baked figs, which were sweet, warm, and perfectly balanced, and the crab and shrimp stuffed mushrooms, which were rich, savory, and cooked to perfection. As a side, we also ordered the Focaccia with Dipping Oil—toasted focaccia served with Pazzo’s seasoned dipping oil. This was excellent, with the bread toasted perfectly and the dipping oil adding a burst of flavor. For our entrées, we tried the Bruschetta Salmon, which was herb-marinated and topped with fresh heirloom tomatoes, basil, and Parmesan cheese. It was fresh, flavorful, and expertly prepared. We also enjoyed the Wild Mushroom Ravioli, served over a vermouth and mushroom tarragon Parmesan cream sauce. The dish was rich and creamy, with a deep, earthy flavor. While the hint of vermouth might not be for everyone, we found it to be a unique and enjoyable. The Bolognese with in-house, freshly made pasta was hearty and satisfying. The Margherita pizza was simple and fine, a classic choice for those who prefer familiar flavors. We initially ordered the Caesar salad but were brought the house salad instead. We decided to keep it, and while it was fresh and crisp, the abundance of red onions wasn’t quite to my taste, though it was easy enough to adjust. We ended the meal with tiramisu, which was creamy, light, and a perfect sweet finale. The espresso martinis were expertly made and paired beautifully with dessert. The service from Jan and Marissa was impeccable—friendly, attentive, and accommodating throughout the evening. We also met Tony who was very friendly. We also explored the upstairs dining space, which is a charming area ideal for hosting private events. Tony Pazzo offers a great mix of authentic Italian-inspired cuisine, a vibrant yet cozy atmosphere, and outstanding service. Whether you’re catching a game, enjoying a casual dinner, or planning an event, this restaurant is a must-visit in Mount Airy.“

“Stopped by with my wife and 2 of my daughters celebrating mother's day. First off , what a hidden gem, in a strip shopping center. We had calamari which was probably the best I've ever had, we had spaghetti with meatballs and with meat sauce also linguine with shrimp delicious all around. Our servers were on point all night, wine was perfect and the peronis were ice cold. Way to go guys, we will be back“

“Fantastic food! Highly recommend 🍷“

“I have ordered the baked ziti & garlic knots literally 3 times this week. i am obsessed. The garlic knots are doughy and buttery- very good. The sauce in the baked ziti is super good and even amazing for leftovers. whoever is cooking that baked ziti...thank youuu!!!!

Parking: Sonnys is in a shopping center so tons of free parking.“

“Great pizza“

“This was my 1st time picking up a pizza at the new location by Home Depot. I work in Eldersburg but live closer to the Mt Airy location. I grew up going to the original Ledo's in Adelphi and know the difference between a well made Ledo's pizza and a subpar one. Ledo's in Eldersburg does it right. My pizza was a perfect Ledo's pizza from presentation, to taste. I highly recommend driving a little farther to get the quality Ledo's pizza that Eldersburg is serving up. Good work!“

“It's a nice little pizza shop for friends and family. The pizza isn't 100% NYC-style, but coming up from Raleigh, NC to visit peeps, it was close enough to enjoy a near real deal experience with a thin crispy crust, excellent mix of cheese, and a tangy sauce. The gluten free pizza order by one of our party was soupy, but tasty. Both lies needed another 60 seconds in the oven. Nice staff, just busy to the point I didn't get a needed drink refill. Still, I'd go back, and recommend it for a casual night out where catching up on conversation with old friends is on the menu.“

“Not like the pies in NYC, maybe the Greater NYC. The crust Is too thick and “bready” and the pepperoni doesn’t have so much grease I have to fold my napkin over the end when I fold the slice in half. It’s definitely better than everything else I’ve had down here, but not like NYC. Get greasy pepperoni, their done backing soda in the water to almost the pH and it’ll probably be a very different pie.“

“If you like pizza, you need to order one here! They are delicious! Bartender Kimberly always gives the BEST service around, AND makes phenomenal drinks!“

“Our knitting group goes here for lunch at least once a month. Everyone enjoys the food and the atmosphere. Service is great too (shout out to Stacey).“

“Excellent food, specials and the staff is awesome!“

“It was a carry out. It started off a little challenging when I tried using the Yelp app along with the text coupon for a free dessert, then on J&P’s website trying to order on line without much success. However, I then decided to order the old fashion way and talk to a person and not a robot. Service was timed perfectly and the food & dessert was absolutely delish! Of course my wife and I was starving, but nevertheless we enjoyed it all…mummmm!“

“I stopped by today to pick up a pizza. Stephanie was the manager. She is wonderful!!! She was training with patience a new employee and finishing pizza orders. She handled a wrong order with grace. She acknowledged every customer as they came in. She was above professional! Thank you Stephanie! Love my Ledo’s!“

“I was one of the first 100 people to get a free pizza on their opening day. Everyone working was very friendly and the pepperoni pizza was delicious. I'll be back soon! Thank you!“

“We had dinner here last night and everything was incredibly delicious. I tried the Chicken Caesar Sub for the first time and I will definitely get it again. The sub roll was soft on the inside and lightly toasted crispy on the outside. The crab deviled eggs were amazing!!!! The bruschetta was tender and not chewy so the toppings never fell off as you took a bite. The cheese pizza was perfect and the Snake Dog IPA was ice cold. Denise was our server and she knew the menu in its entirety and provided impeccable service. The dining room was full and people were endlessly coming in to pick up their take out order. Can’t wait to go back!!!!! Highly recommend all the way around!!!! Thank you, Amante, for a fantastic experience!!!“

“Had some delicious pizza this evening. Always love me some Ledo, but tonight you killed it with amazing sauce to cheese ratio! Staff behind the counter was friendly and engaging. Great job, Mt Airy Ledo!“

“Ordered a Fat Tony's steak and cheese with lettuce and mayo only. Yet when I got home with the order the sub had the works. They tried to say it was my fault.“

“Visited this location twice - once around 2016 and then again this past week (April 2025). First was eat-in, and the second was takeout via the online ordering on Ledo's website. Both times the pizzas were made well, and service was great. Also nice to see easy (and delicious) customisation for the pizzas as well“

“Took me a while to finally try Genova’s, but it has easily become my favorite place for pizza and cheesesteaks in Eldersburg. The quality of the pizza is exactly what I have been looking for. The cheese just has a certain bite / texture to it that just hits perfectly. Can’t forget that crispy crust! Have to get it without the oregano though; too overpowering for me! And I can’t forget to mention the bread used for their sub rolls - simply excellent! The second you walk in the place, you are hit with the most wonderful aroma - you know really good things are being made here! Very nice friendly staff here as well. Way to go, Genova’s!!!“

“Thank you and your other location in West Friendship for your continued support of non profits in your community.“

“We got takeout and got a hot honey Stromboli, a fettuccine Alfredo, and a cheese steak. Everything was really good! We didn't really taste hot honey in the Stromboli, but it was still delicious. I'm not sure if it's standard, but I do wish it was a little larger. The wait was long (45 mins), but on a Saturday night, it's to be expected.
Overall, I'd recommend this Ledos!“

“Always enjoy Ledo’s! My favorite for many, many years?“
