Daddy O's Restaurant — Restaurant in Franklin Township

I love, Love, LOVE this place. I first started going to them shortly after they opened in Elkton (Elk Mills), MD. Their pizzas were really good and reasonably priced, at that time (not sure what their prices are for pizza now). During my undergraduate studies I took an elective; Food Art and Customs. We went to different places for taste tests and such! Really fun class, so much so it was reserved for seniors only and if you didn’t register by 9:00 am the first day, you would not get in. Anyway, one of our excursions was to DaddyO’s! I honestly didn’t see the connection…..that is until…… after my class on-site at DaddyO’s!! The owner (or one of), Jaime trained under a Master Chef. If you don’t know the significance of that, please Google it, it’s a big deal. I had no clue that this amazing chef was literally one mile away from my home. Their dishes are amazing, never had a bad meal or experience. Here’s the kicker….I ate there pretty regularly until I moved away from the area. I knew they had moved to somewhere in PA but I didn’t know where until a couple of months ago when I was passing by. I love their veggie wraps!! Let me say, I love meat, and I don’t normally care for wraps at all, but when I had them cater a work meeting and I tried their veggie wrap-OMG!!! I can’t even put it into words. So, last Saturday after my granddaughter’s birthday party, I was driving by again and I decided to stop. I ordered my veggie wrap…..while waiting for it I started getting nervous wondering what if it doesn’t taste the same….it’s been almost 10 years or so since I had it?? Anxiously, I received it and couldn’t believe how good it tasted!! I’ve tried veggie wraps at other places, in search of a replacement for my beloved wrap, but I was sadly disappointed. There is NO match for this wrap or restaurant!! It tasted exactly, if not a little bit better, like it did when I first had it….I’m not even sure how many years that it, but it’s a lot!! Kudos to you...

This is a true must visit hidden gem. Recommended by a friend we decided to try the establishment upon arrival it looks like an average pizza shop and did not expect much To our surprise from the moment we entered we were greeted like we were family and seated right away by Natalie her personality was very welcoming. The service time was spot on. Natalie answered our question promptly. Olivia our server was simply amazing and very patient since we eat very healthy she took the time and had the patience while we altered the meals. After we placed the orders Natalie and Olivia both checked up on us often and refilled our drinks without asking.

Well when the food came out we were blown away how well the presentation was executed from appetizers entrees and dessert. We have eaten in many 5 star restaurants much more expensive. The quality and freshness of the food blew us away the blend of the flavors of freshness and presentation far exceeds 5 star restaurants. During our entrees both Olivia and Natalie would come over to ensure we were taken care of and everything met our expectations. We cannot recommend this enough you must try this restaurant it exemplifies how a well-run exceptional restaurant should be run from chef to servers . This establishment sets the bar for any restaurant. I can honestly say the meal I had was one of the top meals I have ever experienced our expectations exceed on all levels we will definitely be back to enjoy the experience they treated us like family we left like family and it was...

I don't know what happened but this place just isn't the same as it was at their old location near Elk Mills. I used to work down the road from the old location and went there all the time on my lunch or dinner breaks. They made the BEST cheese steak in the entire MD/DE area and had great steak fries. Also since the business also was a gourmet catering service they always had some incredibly priced specials that were top notch dishes. Sadly this didn't seem to be the case anymore when I came in for lunch at this new location. I got my usual cheese steak and it seemed dry and lacking in flavor and meat. The fries were a bit dry with not much cheese and we didn't get ranch to dip them in. The people working the counter seemed confused. The old location used to serve EXCELLENT dinners in their dining room but I'm not sure I want to come back and try dinner at this new location. It seems much smaller and I'm not sure they will be able to have as good of a menu as before. I hope things turn around at this...
