Great menu! We haven't had anything that we didn't like. They offer a wide variety of Italian cuisine, including seafood lasagna, calzones, garlic knots, and pizza - really too many to name.

We love their nachos! My favorite add-on is the shredded chicken. It's always tender. Their tacos, chimichangas, and enchiladas are delicious, too. The Crofton location is only 5 miles from the house and is the newest location. It was much anticipated from everyone that loves their food.

The restaurant is named Fat Boy's (the Mexican restaurant closed, but Airbnb's database hasn't updated the new info), so please don't lookf for Ponchos!
Fat Boys is a seafood restaurant and they have the best Chesapeake Chicken Sandwich. We can't get past it - tender grilled chicken, topped with creamy crab dip, and strips of Applewood smoked bacon and cheddar cheese. There are 2 locations in close proximity to each other and both stay packed. I'm sure the rest of the menu is just as good. They are a local favorite. Great spot for football fans - they have the NFL Sunday Ticket.

Beginning in the late 1740s, Governor Samuel Ogle and his brother-in-law, Colonel Benjamin Tasker, imported a number of Thoroughbred horses, including the incredible Selima, to Belair. The Stable, built in 1907 by William Woodward, was part of the 20th century’s famous “Belair Stud Stable." Belair was home to Gallant Fox (1930) and Omaha (1935) – the only father/son horses to capture Thoroughbred racing’s famous Triple Crown Series. Today’s Stable Museum highlights the accomplishments of Belair’s bloodstock over a 200-year racing legacy.
