Nova Europa didn't open until the 70's sometime. Before that it was the first Bagel Den in the area.

Facci!!! The area back by the fireplace has glass walls that extend out creating a private room and it's beautiful. With a minimum of 30 people required to reserve. It's a prefixed menu 3 courses for lunch $26 pp includes soup/salad, lunch size entree and dessert. 4 courses for dinner $46 pp includes an appetizer, soup/salad, entree and dessert. All cold non-alcoholic beverages are also included in the price. You may bring your own decorations and there are black linens available for the tables. It really is lovely. 3016045555

Ananda or Stanford Grill

Stanford Grill as well. We had a party there after my daughter's baptism two years ago. Everyone is still talking about how great the food was!
No Delivery: Ledo's Pizza is great (very generous portion if you get the pre-cooked bacon topping... and how can you not get bacon as a topping?); J&P is good (wish they delivered and they have good non-pizza alternatives as well); and, Facci Italian Restaurant is one that we always had high hopes for when going... but, more often than not came away disappointed. Delivery: Lucero's Pizza (a little overpriced, but my wife likes their white pizza, kids love the crust, and they have a good cheesesteak).

Roma's has great pizza! They're located in the Atholton Shopping Center off Shaker Drive and deliver to ML. http://www.romas-pizza.com/

The ABSOLUTE BEST local that we found is Bubba's Cajun Seafood in Seadrift. 40 miles east up the coast from Rockport. FANTASTIC shrimp boil, and he catches it himself, cooks it by his grandmother's recipes and is usually on-site. We spoke to him to compliment his work. His private spice recipe is phenomenal!
