Fat Boys is one of the top summer spots! There’s nothing like eating seafood on the patio with a cold drink in hand. They have some of the best crab dip ever!!! They also have a liquor store attached which is very convenient.

Ledo’s is always a good spot for pizza. Their pizza is top tier! It’s not your average pizza shop. I love the square shape, the sauce has a little sweetness to it, and the dough is *chefs kiss*!! You have to try their old bay wings too. A DMV staple!
