Marylanders are very passionate about food. The other week we shared some unassuming restaurants in Maryland that pack big flavor. Almost immediately, the comments section exploded with similar small restaurants with mind-blowing cuisine. So, here are nine more hole-in-the-wall restaurants in Maryland that may seem simple from the outside, but step inside and you'll experience spectacular food like no other.
We've featured Sunshine General Store on a few lists already, but they're worth mentioning AGAIN because readers continue to rave about this place. Their burgers are huge, juicy, and unforgettable.
A favorite among locals, The Frying Pan does breakfast right. The menu boasts such classics as corned beef hash, country ham and eggs, and pancakes. The parking lot is almost always full, and for good reason. You'll see.
Delicious Mexican food and quite possibly the best tacos in Maryland await. Once you visit, you'll likely go back again and again for more. Try such favorites as the chicken, ground pork, or fish tacos. Tortas, soups, and burritos are also on the menu. Yum!
Make sure to bring the green because Nick's Diner accepts cash only. This old-fashioned diner has a menu jam-packed with delicious homemade food - from the hot roast beef platter to the Greek gyro. Stop by for breakfast or lunch.
Sometimes you can't fight those cravings for carbs, and that's when Dolce is the perfect place to go. It may not look like much from the outside, but the food will leave your insides satisfied. You'll find a generous selection of pizzas, calzones, subs, and authentic European dishes. For some of the best Italian food in Maryland, it's gotta be Dolce.
You'd normally head to a pub for drinks rather than seafood. However, Neptune's has exceptional crab cakes and their steamed mussels are famous among locals. It's tough to stand out when it comes to seafood on the East Coast, but Neptune's does it seamlessly.
The old Fill'Er-Up is so much more than just a place to eat. Come to this tiny stop for the cream of crab soup and you will not be left disappointed. Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the quaint eatery offers something for every taste - from subs and hand-tossed pizza to homemade soups and juicy 1/3 pound burgers.
This is one of those restaurants where everybody knows your name. Great service and even greater food. Mom & Pop's Family Restaurant, however, is perhaps best known for its hand-cut steaks and the freshest seafood around.
This dive bar in Maryland has surprisingly great food at affordable prices. Try their cheeseburger and fries for a grease-filled, heavenly meal. Cap off your meal with a slice of homemade pie or homemade cake.
