Looks like it closed up. Never had a decent meal in there anyway, but I did enjoy going to the bar there.

Wonder if someone else will take it and do something with the building now.

Yes, it's becoming...an IRISH pub. Really. :dance:


I'm very excited. They've knocked down walls, are going to expand the bar, already have their menu designed, etc. They plan on having music and more. I'm really truly overly excited about this. I forgot the name they will be opening with, but the owner truly is Irish.

I believe they are looking at being open in 6 to 8 weeks.

I was thinking we could buy it and finally open up The Space Bar. :ohwell:

Gotta be better than the old Petruzzi's.

Who bought the place? An Irish Pub might be nice. I know the pub in Leonardtown does a good business and is always crowded.

Well I'm not posting the gentleman's name on a public forum, but he's Irish, and plans on running the place like a genuine pub, complete with a measurement system for drafts and shots. I'm really excited about the whole thing.

Like I said, I can't remember the name of the pub, but I am sure we'll hear more about it later from folks with more connections than I. :smile:

I really am looking forward to it. It'll be out of my way, but worth it.

It's not like Italian is that complex. I can't recall a place thet could screw up noodles before I tried Petruzzi's.

That is great!!!

I am so excited about this. I live like 30 seconds from there. I hated Petruzzi's.

They served Bug frozen ravioli once.

I would have gladly settled for frozen ravioli over what they served me once and I am typically not a complainer.

I've been to one other local place that had really really really really bad noodles, not just screwed up. I'll still eat there, but just won't order pasta again.

I told them to hold the pepper in a dish I ordered. Sent it out COVERED in pepper. I sent it back, I could not even attempt to eat it.

If Chef Boy R Dee can make a damn noodle and put it in a can for 9 months before someone eats it, you would think an "Italian restaurant" could make an edible noodle. :lmao:

You don't have much luck at restaurants, do ya? :lol:

Most of the time I do. :shrug:

Italian cuisine (most of it anyways) is pretty easy to replicate at home so I rarely go out for italian... if we do it is usually to Maggiano's :shrug:

They served Bug frozen ravioli once.You mean, like, where you could tell that they were using previously-frozen ravioli, or are you saying that they sent out hard frozen ravioli?

Either way, frozen ravioli from a restaurant professing to be "Italian" is a :nono: .

I don't know them. Tried to google it, but there are a million Maggiano's !! Popular Italian name, I guess.

Where is it?

I used to go to Tosca in DC when I worked there.

I like Aldo's and LaTavola in Baltimore.

That is it. I have been to the one in Tysons several times and the food is superb :yay:

If you go w/ family or group they have special menu and pricing that they bring out unlimited amounts of the dishes you choose. You get the choice of 2 salads, 2 appetizers, 2 pizzas, 2 types of pastas, 2 main dishes and 2 desserts.

My children were so impressed by them I really got a kick out of taking them there. All the waiters are in tuxedos/suits nice italian music in the background. It is EXCELLENT :yay:

I was at Howard AFB in Panama and used to have to borrow the Air Force Master Sgt's jeep thing all the time and he gave me a ton of grief. One day I needed it and didn't feel like putting up with a blast of crap and whining so I just took it knowing he would never know.

After I got done I put it back in the same parking spot I noticed a bag in the passenger seat. I looked and it was his lunch. I took a bite out of his sandwich and put it back in the baggie and back in the bag then left. I went and got a good spot in the hangar at lunch time where I could see into his office window and watched.

The look on his face when he pulled that sandwich out of the bag was priceless. :killingme

I know the people and it will be nice. They did take some walls down to make the bar much bigger. They are planning on having Irish music and a dart board room. Can't wait till it is done.

We go about once every other month to the one in Richmond or Tysons. We love it.

We dont go that often. Maybe 3 or 4 times a year for a special occasion. W/ 4 kids it can get pretty pricey, last time we went it was a little over $200 but worth every penny :yay:

I used to live near Tysons and loved going to Maggiano's. They have a great family meal thing... but agree that it gets a little pricey!
I heard about the Irish pub in Wildewood and agree that it will be a blast! When we stopped by Petruzzi's last Thursday night for 1/2 price pizza... surprise they were closed.. but we talked to a girl in there who gave us a run down of what they had planned. Sounds fun... can't wait!

That is AWESOME that it'll be an Irish place! Sweet!

I am not sure one of the girls I saw worked there before, but that probably doesn't mean anything.

If anyone can offer updates on O'Petruzzi's, that'd be awesome haha
I'd like to find out more about this. I love the pub in Leonardtown. I sure miss 4 Star, but I think it's a fair trade haha

Its not going to be run by the same people is it?


Yes...

It'll be out of my way, but worth it.
After going to your place last night, isn't EVERY place out of your way?

I was expecting a Border Patrol agent to ask me for my papers when I got out of the car.

Yes...

Will it really be better then? I mean the food was horrible before and it came out frozen or cold. Service was shoddy, but there is a lot of that around here.

YES! Four Star Pizza in Leonardtown wasn't anyone's favorite near the end. But the same owners are becoming wildly successful in the Pub business. The same will happen in Wildewood. They will have good bar food and focus more on the "entertainment" aspect. If you want a good dinner, go to Lenny's first.

Might have to buy that first round soon, I noticed a new sing on the building this morning on the way to work, McCallhans or something like that.

That means they must be moving ahead unlike the Ruddy........
