Read MoreThe first thing to mention about Full On is that, if you don't know its there, it is easy to miss! It does have a sign that's visible from the intersection of Georgia Avenue and Norbeck Road, but it's faded and during the day it doesn't stick out. They are also not listed on the freestanding lighted sign for the shopping center. This place has been here for years, and I've eaten at the other three restaurants in the shopping center without even seeing it. The only thing that led me there were the articles about it being the best/one of the best sandwich places anywhere in the state/country. SO, keep your eyes open. (Same corner shopping center as Big Greek Cafe and EaThai restaurants. Located next to the barber shop.)
OK...having said all that, let's consider the food. All the hype about this place...isn't hype. Even after just my first visit, I can say that this is one of the best sandwich places you are ever likely to eat at, anywhere. It has been a very long time since Montgomery County has had a truly great, iconic sandwich restaurant. Not since the legendary Roy's Place (formerly in Gaithersburg) has this area had an primo, over-the-top place like Full On Craft Eats & Drinks.
When I saw the menu, I really struggled to choose. Everything looked great. With the help of my servers, I settled on the "Le Pilgrim". Yep...if you're one of those people (like me) who loves to eat Thanksgiving dinner all year round, this generous sub packed with fresh roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and cranberry sauce is the thing for you. It also comes with a bowl of turkey gravy to dunk with. All sandwiches come with their fresh kettle chips, or you can upgrade to onion rings, coleslaw, or a side salad for $1.50. I did the onion rings and they were among the best I've ever had. Huge portion with large cut rings and a unique, crunchy battered crust. They come with Full On's BBQ ranch sauce. I made only one mistake with this meal: I ordered the Tomato Basil Bisque. Not that is wasn't hot, delicious, and well-garnished with homemade croutons and cheese. It was that I realized after all the food arrived that it was too much food. By the time I had the soup and ate half the sandwich and less than half the onion rings, I was stuffed! I literally left with enough food for dinner.
As for the price, it is as premium as the quality of the food. This is one of those restaurants where you are reminded that you get what you pay for. Sandwich platters will range from $14 to $19. Salads are all $17. Soups/sides/appetizers range from $5 to $14. Not cheap, but this ain't Subway! Nor, is it Jersey Mike's, where you'll spend about the same amount for a vastly inferior, assembly line sandwich. This place offers great value for money.
The only other thing I would mention is that the staff and the atmosphere is wonderful. A very clean, uncluttered, pleasant place to eat. Service is fast and the food was delivered fresh and hot. My waitress read my mind about one thing: This is the kind of restaurant that you contemplate trying everything on the menu. If you haven't been here, give it a try.
