Limone's
Limone's restaurant is favored by all here at the Princess Anne. Limone's is considered a Mexican/Californian restaurant, but the dishes are a bit more intriguing than just that. The menu changes often, serving everything from barbecue pork tacos to house-made ravioli stuffed with farmer's goat cheese, roasted corn, and organic sorrel. All the food is fresh, organic, and much of it is local. Every guest we've sent to Limone's has had nothing but good things to say about their dining experience. Limone's is located downtown on Eagle Street and the dress is casual.

region's standard for quality. Entrees include a good selection of fish and steak. The Market Place is located downtown on Wall Street, and the dress is dressy casual.
