I haven't been to the hoagie hut since it left Highwood. I had some free time today and was…read moreactually craving an old-school hoagie. At first from the outside it looked like it was closed, but I don't judge it on the looks of the outside of the building. I ordered the original cheesesteak hoagie, and it did not disappoint. It's not the healthiest sandwich in the world, but it's not supposed to be. The staff seemed like it was the same staff from Highwood many years ago. When I opened it up out of the package, that distinct smell hit and I was pleasantly surprised at how it tasted just like it did back in the day. The 6 inch was just perfect and I'll definitely be back for when I have this craving again.

Stopped in for dinner while out and about. We stopped in the pouring rain…read more Maria was very nice! We asked what they offer and she provided some options. She suggested the A Wreck and the Mama's Meatball, both of which were ordered. Both were the "Big" size that was enough to eat half right away and save the other half for lunch the next day. The food was served fast and both were very flavorful. Her meatball sub was hot (in temperature) and fresh and mine was hot (in spices) and fresh. Wow, that had quite the kick.

When I arrived at the window we were met by Maria who was absolutely nice and helpful, not to mention, patient. We asked what they offer and she provided some options. She suggested the A Wreck (didn't even listen to what she said after the meat) and the Mama's Meatball, both of which were ordered. Both were the "Big" size that was enough to eat half right away and save the other half for lunch the next day. The food was served fast and both were very flavorful. Served with a smile. We will certainly be returning. We did sit in the car, in the rain and enjoy our sandwiches. My meatball sub was hot (in temperature) and fresh and his was hot (in spices) and fresh. My goodness that kind of spicy hot is hard for me to handle. WOW! Great experience all around!

Heard about Big Ed's when we moved to the area. And the food definitely lived up to the hype. We…read morewere a little confused by the restaurant set up. It's split into two - cafeteria style side and a full service restaurant style. We chose the full service... The wait service itself was solid. Waitress was personable and we were rarely without a drink on hand. But we had to wait 25 min for our dinner. This is the part that dropped my rating to 4 stars. We eat a lot of BBQ and it rarely requires that long of a wait. The food is smoked and grilled hours ahead of time which is why the cafeteria side is able to serve right away. Why is there such a long wait for the same food in the sit down space? Again, the food was great and the atmosphere of the restaurant was ok. But I'd hesitate to select this for dinner out unless I wasn't hungry yet and I had a lot of time.

We ordered the margarita pizza, rigatoni vodka pasta, bruschetta, and tomato basil bisque, and everything tasted fantastic. The margarita pizza was exactly what we were craving, and the vodka sauce on the rigatoni was rich and full of flavor. Bruschetta is one of my favorite appetizers, and dipping the leftover bread into the tomato basil soup made the meal even better. Everything came together perfectly, and we will definitely be ordering from here again.

Nice guy inside making the sandwich offered to go across the street to Dockside Dogs and get me some giardiniera for my sub which I declined. Nice deck outside with tables, chairs and umbrellas or sit by the boat ramp. Very limited menu offering just a few items. Just like the dog joint across the street the views are what you come here for but the sandwich was very fresh and tasty even without the giardiniera. These two places draw you to the harbor.
