Carmelo's In L - thicum

It's an interesting place... sit down, order the bruchetta from the menu and a meatlovers pizza. The bruchetta came out and looked very sad. Looked like wonderbread slices piled high with tomatoes and onion and a hunk of cheese. Zero basil. No pesto. The smallest amount of olive oil, with lettuce in the middle of the 4 wonderbread looking slices. Very much not what the description says about bruchetta. I expected the worst for the pizza after the bruchetta. Pizza is actually awesome! Piled high with toppings, crispy, and great flavor! All that was quickly turned upside when I look up at the soccer game on the screen and see a live ROACH crawling around!! that's pretty disgusting! Wish I was making it up! Right after the cockroach, I watched the kitchen staff arguing with the guy behind the counter about non-payment? Kitchen staff kept asking for pay and guy behind the counter said after work. Once you're done. Back to work....

Everything I've gotten from there has been excellent! The gnocchi sorentina is my favorite. So very fresh with generous portions. Delivery great as well also.

Carry out order. Thought food could have been better

They are a local Mom and Pop shop. They are always so kind, and their food is amazing. I would recommend the pizza and the Italian cheese steak. Their sauce is really good.

Pizza was as lame as the decor stuck in the early 90s. No customer's don't waste your
