Tally Ho Restaurant

My first visit to Tally Ho was in 1977, my first day on a landscape crew. The fact it's still here, an institution in Potomac since 1968 is a testament. A big menu of Italian and Greek specialties, subs, salads, sandwiches, burgers and PIZZA. The pizza, IMO is the best traditional Brooklyn style of any pizza I've had in my 55 years of pizza in DMV, NY, Chicago (great, but different) Italy (not always good) or anywhere. The crust is thicker than Brooklyn and doesn't have quite the same structure re: Dave Portnoy, but the dough has the same mouth feel and flavor. The GF pizza crust is also one of the best, next to Ledo's as they make their own dough, not that lame GF shell from Sysco that most places use. The Gyro is real good. I often get the Greek salad with Gyro meat.

We stopped in for brunch before hiking at Great Falls. The food is great but they seemed understaffed and it's a pretty spartan operation. The prices were good though and we didn't have to wait for a table. I'd be willing to go back and give them another shot.

Our family favorite spot at the Potomac Village. We love Andreas and his family. The food, the service and the price cannot be any better. After the Sunday church service, a group of our parishioners gather at this Restaurent for breakfast/ lunch. My personal favorite is the village salad with gyro. Wide range of choices on their menu to satisfy any appetite.

This is not just a pizza place! They have delicious breakfast too. Could not have been more impressed. I went here thinking I was in for a mediocre time, as it is a sleepy restaurant that’s sort of hidden in Potomac. I ordered the steak and eggs and who ever cooked that thing hit it out of the park. Got the temperature to a perfect medium rare, the eggs were cooked precisely to what I requested, and the home fries were delicious. Could not have been happier.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Potomac Village. I always get the same thing, eggplant parmigiana sub with a side of fries. It’s delicious and the bread really makes the sub. It’s so fresh! The fries are also more on the crispy side which I love. I always get takeout.
