16 Best American Restaurants in Westminster

“Wow! What a gem of a place. The food is excellent. We had a spinach salad and added blackened salmon. Incredible!!! We enjoy a wide variety of beer. We tried their Sun’s Up Citrus Rye. Again, outstanding. Very refreshing. I highly recommend Bud’s.“

“Don't judge a book by its cover. Hidden in an unassuming strip center, the pizza and pasta was excellent, especially the Old Fashioned pizza which is rectangular with sauce dollops on top. We also got the Tailgater appetizer with onion rings, mozzarella sticks, and more. It was packed on a Saturday night but we were seated quickly. Great value and we left with lots of leftovers.“

“This location is great. The wait times aren't bad for the most part. The food is great, the wait staff is friendly, the hosts are quick to get you seated, and the prices aren't too bad. This is definitely a go to for us on date night.Parking: The lot for this location is big enough to accommodate. I've never had an issue finding a spot.“

“Can I rave about this place? From very limited experience -- absolutely. I almost never write reviews -- shame on me. But I feel compelled to write this one. Before tonight I had stopped into the Lost Lion just twice. The first time was when it first opened back at the height of the pandemic. The second, for a quick take out. Then, I was intrigued but not thrilled -- now I'm thrilled. Tonight I ordered a simple Manhattan while I waited for my take out order. What I got was a sublime craft cocktail -- worthy of a much bigger venue than Westminster, Maryland. Kudos to the bartender. Having been the victim of many a disappointing restaurant/bar Manhattan, this one was perfect. My only regret with the Manhattan was not seeing the list of delectable holiday cocktails first. The Texas Tacos were delicious. I will be back, and this time I won't wait so long in between visits. David“

“This is your standard American diner situation. The food is clean and edible, but the menu is kind of repetitive.I always kind of categorize restaurants by "can make at home" and "don't want to make at home" so the stuff that shines at baughers are either their dinner specials or desserts which often feature their locally grown fruits.If you don't want to make your own burger at home you'd be safe to get one here, just make sure you also get pie to make it worth the trip!“

“Food is great and the fruit market is really wonderful. They bring the fruit during the season right from their orchard to the market for sale. They make their own pies and jams and are open all year. The restaurant has good home cooked food many local people eat here and the food portions are a great value. I have never had a bad meal here. We get fruits and vegetables from here all of the time. I'm the fall if you go out to the farm they have pick your own fruit and pumpkins. It's a great way to entertain the little ones.“

“Texas Roadhouse is known for providing excellent service that enhances the overall dining experience. Our server, Abby, arrived promptly to take our drink orders and answered any questions we had about the menu. She checked on us frequently to ensure we had everything we needed, like extra napkins or drink refills. The food came hot and at a reasonable time with everything correctly modified. During our meal, we even had a manager stop by our table to check in and make sure everything was good. When it was time for the check, we didn't have to wait because of the electronic payment tablet at the table. From start to finish, the service at Texas Roadhouse made me and my party feel valued. The friendly, attentive staff truly cares that you have an enjoyable experience at a reasonable price. Their excellent service keeps customers coming back again and again.“

“The owner is an absolute angel! A morning appointment detained me from getting breakfast this morning before the cut off time. She was so kind and prepared a healthy meal for me. I have eaten lunch multiple times at this restaurant; but, never breakfast until today. I will most definitely be back! Thank you for your kindness!“

“This is such a great spot to dine at! I came for Sunday brunch with an old friend for the first time and was so pleased with the food and drinks. Great service and atmosphere- will definitely come back! Definitely get the bottomless mimosas“

“Stop by & see waitress, Jenna. She was fantastic! Offered great drink suggestions & made our dining experience a pleasant one. Thanks to the manager for stopping by our table to check on us.Vegetarian options: Clearly described vegetable optionsKid-friendliness: Family friendly environment“

“I have been coming to this establishment for 9 years regularly and I will do my best to make my review unbiased.The building is made out of its original construction, the inside is beautiful with a gorgeous bar and an equal level of beauty upstairs restaurant somewhat out of a fantasy book or Lord of the Rings.Food: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I gave the food 5 stars because. Every time I have came in to the establishment for a bite to eat, a meal, or to try the specials, I have never had to send the food back nor did something come out the way I didn't order.The selections are plentiful but not over bearing where you can't make up your mind. They also have numerous Gluten Free options and a good quantity of authentic Irish foods from starters to full courses.Service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I gave service 4 starts because; the Bar staff are always on point and will always be available when you need a refill. The wait staff are equally on point and never have to wait more than a few mins for any refills. The entire staff is fully knowledgeable on the menu and drinks. If they aren't they are more than happy to grab someone who is.The main reason why I gave 4 stars is due to the fact the cocktail menu seems to be really catering to a sweeter flavor profile. However, the knowledgeable bar staff are more than capable to cater to your preferred tastebuds.Atmosphere: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I gave atmosphere 5 stars because the staff are super welcoming, the patrons feel like family, everyone talks to each other as if you've known them for ages regardless if you are regular or a 1st timer. Every other thrusday there is a band of locals that play Irish music. All in all, O'Lordan's is definitely an Irish Public House more so than any other American definition of a " Bar", "Tavern", "Inn".In conclusion, if you want an authentic Irish PUB experience with wonderful staff and equally great company with friends old or new, while enjoying great drinks and food to while the time away. Then, O'Lordan's Irish Pub is your place to stay and call home!-Trevor "Captian T'al"Vegetarian options: Powerhouse Sandwhich, Salads, Potato Leek Soup (REQUEST WITHOUT BACON)Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free Options.“

“Our waitress Terry is on the ball! Makes sure our coffee cups are full, our food is served in a timely manner, and of course she is always smiling and friendlyParking: During snow I think the parking spaces could have been cleared a bit better especially up to the sidewalk“

“The Reuben is my favorite! Everything is great, with one exception.....the Cream of Crab soup is too thick and pastey....and not much crab meat and didn't taste like crab at all........That was 8 years ago and Louie has transformed this in to a seafood “

“Rafaels is a gem of Westminster. Their food is wonderful and despite being a somewhat fancy place it's also one of my favorite places in town to get a good burger. Seriously don't sleep on the burgers here. They're excellent. The staff is so nice every time I go in. I can't say enough about the service and professionalism of the people here. The building itself is very cool with an old brick wall paired with a modern aesthetic that works really well together. On a Friday and Saturday night it gets crowded so make those reservations! Overall you will not regret going here. It's a great place to take a date or head out with friends.Parking: There are several parking lots available in the vicinity of the restaurant. Most of them are metered until 5pm so bring those quarters if you're coming in before 5pm. Westminster is not modern. We do not have credit card meters. It's quarters or nothing ?Kid-friendliness: While people can and do bring their young children to Rafaels I would not recommend it on busy evenings. There is just a lot going on and it's very crowded and a toddler who decides to run around might get tripped over. During the day when it's less crowded might be more okay. YMMV“

“We have been enjoying Bullocks Family Restaurant for over 20 years. The management and staff are wonderful and maintain high quality of service. The food menu provides many options and very tasty. Great home cooking meals!“

“I've introduced this restaurant to my dither daughter because of the wood fire oven pizza. She has fallen in love with the onion rings. I really like the old time ferl of the bar, lots of wood and belt driven fans. The beer is always fresh, and lots of options.“
