27 Best American Restaurants in Bel Air

“Lucky us…ventured off the highway and found this place..cafe, coffee shop and bistro (Pairings) all in one. Dan helped us and he was outstanding!…had the market breakfast burrito with their local salsa..a must try!…will definitely drop back on our next trip..“

“After living in the area for 5 years we finally visited Pairings Bistro tonight.
We were celebrating our 20th anniversary and I’m so glad we chose Pairings to do so. The restaurant is quite beautiful , the staff were friendly and knowledgeable and the food was amazing. Loved being able to chose between pre fixe 3 or 4 course meals and à la carte for dinner and of course the wine pairing option. With the many choices for lunch or dinner and seasonal menu this is sure to become one of our new go to restaurants. We could go numerous times a month and have something new and exciting each time. Thanks for the wonderful service and delicious food and wines.“

“Good service and great food and drinks the food came out in a reasonable time and the waitress was knowledgeable about almost everything on the menu she gave suggestions and when we got our food it was great everything was fresh clean on point I definitely recommend getting the crab dip also.“

“Needless to say the place is amazing! I loved the interior look of the establishment. It really resembles a lodge, even has ski seat that swing (a little LOL). My kid truly enjoyed the seats. The Orange Crush was really good and the crab dip was awesome! The wait staff was warm and welcoming. Will definitely be coming back. A friend made the recommendation and I called them to thank them because it was amazing food!“

“I came here with my daughter for a character event and they made her feel so special. The food was great and it’s family friendly. Love this place!“

“As a couple that semi frequently travels and have been to Cracker Barrel facilities in multiple states. On 1/11/2024 we ordered breakfast and waited in less than 16 minutes our meal was served and it was the best meal we've ever enjoyed everything was hot and tasty even the coffee. Great food great service great experience keep that cook happy and you'll stay busy. 😀“

“Amazing. the wait staff was very attentive and very friendly. kitchen staff was on point with everything we ordered. everything was perfectly cooked and tasted fantastic. The cocktails were great too. Can not recommend enough.“

“Great Wings! A myriad of cooking options and flavors. Not the cheapest in town but to be fair they are good. My only gripe is the carrots and celery that are served with these wings are abysmal, And you have to pay extra for them, If you want really good carrots and celery, and massive wings, go to Looney's! and they're included with the wings.“

“Enjoyed the delicious Maryland Club sandwich and a tasty Caesar salad. Ms. Rachel and the wait staff were amazing and welcoming. The Brunch Menu offers a few tasty options, as well. No matter what you choose, your meal will be a joy to your palette. Will surely return soon.“

“Just a good place to go for a good time-friendly staff. Convenient location!!“

“Best Greek food in Harford County! Started with the Avgolemono lemon-egg drop soup. Tangy with lots of lemon. Uses a chicken broth base. The simple feta plate was extensive with plump capers, lots of heavily marinated kalamata olives& chunks of fresh ripe tomato. Don't miss the entree: spinach+feta chicken. Large chicken breasts top & bottom sandwich a heavy layer of spinach & feta on a bed of orzo rice. Beautiful & a wonderful flavor. Included a varied & fresh Greek salad with superb Greek salad dressing. Finally, 2 deserts were split onto 2 plates for us: the heavy-syrup-filled Greek baklava, & a special lemon filo pastry of the day--very lemony. An excellent meal whether you're there for lunch or dinner. Wonderful service & a warm Greek welcome!“

“Cheesesteaks and eggplant parm are always �“

“It’s been over 30 years since I moved to FL. I was so disappointed that
Friendly’s closed a lot of there locations. Thank God we found the one in the Harford Mall still open. My son absolutely loves ice cream. Thank you Friendly’s for staying in business and the great friendly service.“

“Jo is AWESOME! we love when we walk in and see her- because it means we will have awesome super friendly service! Very excited to hear they will be remaining open! Make sure you come check them out if you haven’t been recently it’s worth the visit!“

“Riverside Pub has fantastic food and staff. The private room is perfect for events, and I even attend Trivia night there on Thursdays. Dana does an outstanding job keeping up with the crowd. Great atmosphere overall.“

“Good food and great service“

“we went to this place for the first time tonight to celebrate my husband bday and support our favorite band Witness. Our waitress was outstanding! She was attentive, fast, got everything right, and just had a very pleasant and professional demeanor. The food was tasty and very reasonably priced. If you like chocolate and peanut butter, save room for dessert because that cake is to die for. If it wasn't a 45 minute drive for us we'd be regulars!“

“We had another great experience at bob evans! I went to first watch last week for breakfast, it was subpar service. Quality of food did not equal the price.
Thankfully bob evans provided great service and great food for a great price!“

“The cheese steak, a must try, tasty, crisp, delicious.“

“Disappointed for the removal of the steak fajitas from the menu. They were the best. Still a great lunch and service.“

“Had the most wonderful dining experience at India Garden last night! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and an inviting atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious—each dish carried authentic flavors and was beautifully presented. We especially loved the [favorite dish], which was cooked to perfection. The service was outstanding; the staff was attentive without being intrusive. The ambiance was cozy yet elegant, making it a great spot whether you’re dining with family, friends, or celebrating something special. Truly a gem in the city—highly recommend India Garden if you want the real taste of India!“

“Thank you SO much to Tim and the Birds Nest Staff for our amazing "The Nest" catering order. They were awesome to work with...it was pouring down rain and they helped carry stuff out to our vehicle and the food was AMAZING and the portions were huge!! Everyone commented and asked where we got it so hopefully you'll have some new customers!! Thank you again!“

“Excellent service and excellent food 😊“

“The food is always top notch here and I've been coming since this location opened 5 years ago.“

“Other than going there with expectations of getting the Awesome tatter tots and then told they are out of them. Everything else was fine. Nevertheless, still kind of disturbed on the restaurant being out of one of the greatest appetizers I have on football Sunday.“

“Food has always been delicious. Our server Tiffany was wonderful. The grilled chicken with cheese LT and fries was very reasonable and tasty at $15. Unfortunately our app of Mozzarella Kabobs was quite small. Two skewers with 8 quarter size pieces for $12 was very over priced. Suggestion either increase the quantity of the app or please lower the price. Definitely will not order that again.“

“No matter of my experience tonight I still give it a good recommendation…. I don’t know why they insist on taking your entree order the same time as your app order?? It’s no fun having your app order show up and 5 seconds in your entree shows up… C’mon server, you see me sitting there taking my second bit of my app and then your secondary server shows up with my meal….seriously??? It wasn’t cold but it wasn’t hot either….. Wtf!!! That’s why you got a lesser tip in case your wondering…“
