New American Restaurants near Catonsville, MD

“This hidden gem is one of my go to spots. The owner is friendly and helpful along with his son. The Falafel Wrap is one of my favorites and I always get it with everything including the hots. They even have a homemade sauce called “mambo sauce” and it’s delicious! I always put old bay and the mambo sauce on my potato wedges. Food is always prepared quickly and I have NOT been disappointed! I highly recommend!“

“Explore Maryland - Eggspectation Owings Mills

Eggspectation in Owings Mills is a popular, upscale casual dining spot located in the Metro Centre at Owings Mills. It is highly regarded for its expansive, all-day menu featuring elevated breakfast and brunch staples alongside comforting lunch and dinner dishes.“

“I cannot say enough good things about our experience at Ampersea! From the moment we walked in we felt welcome. Joey was absolutely fantastic - setting us up at a table with an amazing view and checking on us multiple times during our visit. He offered to take our coats after we were seated and then offered to take pictures of us when we were on our way out. Ampersea has definitely been the most positive experience we have had during our trip. I can honestly say that Joey is the sole reason we cannot wait to come back to enjoy a meal and a drink (or 2, or 3 haha) once the weather is nicer! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!“

“quite, excellent job, great food and atmosphere just right“

“I had an emotionlly weird day until Aryel and D gave me the best service! They work well together, as a previous bartender/waitress myself you can spot top tier chemistry! The teamwork makes the dream“

“We had the most delicious dinner this evening! Our server, Lorri, was very attentive and so personable. The food was simply outstanding! We had the calamari, fried cauliflower and whipped ricotta appetizer. All were so delicious and the presentation was lovely. For dinner, we sampled the burger, chicken Marsala, and Porchetta. Each was unique and so tasty. We finished with homemade raspberry sorbet and the somores dessert which were both very yummy. The cocktails were also very good! I can’t believe we didn’t find this “gem” earlier!!!! We can’t wait to come again!!!“

“Ordered the army breakfast. Eggs were over done, sausage was under cooked and the entire meal was cold. Could have had a better breakfast at a homeless shelter. First and last time.“

“Excellent Coconut Shrimp! The sauce was amazing!! I loved the sauce and the shrimp were huge!“

“Dined on our anniversary and were greeted with a congratulatory card and glass of champagne. Our server, Lauren, was a rock star. We couldn't decide on a bottle of wine to order and she brought three samples for us to try, which made the decision easy. The food was excellent and you must try the Brussel sprouts appetizer. Save room for desert and don't skip the crème brûlée!“

“Food and service were both amazing at Topside. The staff were all friendly and accommodating. We were even brought a champagne toast on the house, and a non-alcoholic one for my wife (she had ordered an N/A drink earlier), which was a great gesture. I will definitely be back. The Sticky Toffee Pudding dessert special was a real highlight.“

“Stopped by for a late outdoor dinner. Ordered at the window and staff was amazing and friendly. Amira was especially friendly. We were devastated you ran out of cotton candy ice cream, but we still had a great night with great service.“

“We had the wonderful experience of having dinner last evening celebrating our son’s graduation! The food was outstanding! We had appetizers, drinks, NY Strip, dessert and cannot express how delicious everything was! The service was excellent! Brittani S. was awesome, personable and checked on us frequently making sure we had everything we needed! The atmosphere was great too! Definitely will go back again when visiting Baltimore! Thank you for a memorable evening!“

“Very delicious and super accommodating of Celiac/gluten free! They have gluten free toast I subbed for with the eggs benedict. The breakfast potatoes are also gluten free and they offered to cook mine in a separate pan. No gluten free pancakes or biscuits but other than that many things can be made GF. Staff was super kind!

Smaller restaurant so there was a wait but you can get on the list and they’ll text when your table is ready. I must say their coffee wasn’t great.“

“I eat here every time I visit the area.“

“Very nice place ! Very friendly staff! Great food !! Great service!! Highly recommend!!“

“Awesome bar, great beer selection and delicious food“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 Experience I went to Rye Street Tavern tonight for an early birthday dinner with friends and I honestly had such a great time. It felt nice doing something out of the norm on a Monday. The place is beautiful inside and I cannot wait to come back when the weather breaks so I can enjoy the outdoor vibes. The food was delicious overall, but there were two items I did not love. I am the type of customer who will just take it home and make it work. My friends kept encouraging me to send it back if I did not like it and even the waitress gently suggested the same. I kept saying no because I never complain at restaurants, but they talked me into it in the nicest way. The manager came over and was so kind and accommodating. He introduced himself, asked what was wrong, and even then I still kept saying nothing was wrong. I loved how hands-on he was as a manager, clearing plates and helping his team. It stood out to me. They ended up making me something a little custom and it was perfect. I wish I remembered my waitress’s name because she was great and truly delightful. From the atmosphere to the service, everything was wonderful. I highly recommend Rye Street Tavern and I am already looking forward to going back. It is a 10 out of 10 for me.“

“wicked good food. super cozy and nice staff 🔥“

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Citron Baltimore while celebrating a friend’s birthday! The owner, Charles, and his wife were incredibly nice and friendly, making us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. Their hospitality truly set the tone for a memorable evening. The food was nothing short of amazing—every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was incredible, with a perfect blend of elegance and warmth that made the celebration extra special. Highly recommend this gem of a spot—can’t wait to come back!“

“The cheeseburger was fantastic! The bartender was superb for drinks and conversation. Dive bar excellence.“

“Meal was incredible. The concept is really smart. Service was the best I’ve had in Columbia since moving here a year ago. Patrick provided stellar service as did all other staff from bartender, server and host. We look forward to coming back to explore their whole drink menu and partake in their perfect, generous, palate delighting meal.“

“Brunch was delicious and the sculpture garden was lovely.“

“The new management is definitely better than previous owner. The lady that takes the order is always so friendly and that’s every time you go there. My food is always the same every time I go and that’s good that why I keep going back. You won’t be disappointed“

“I just wanted to say what an awesome experience Barracudas and Billy provided for my family. We held a surprise 90th birthday party for my Mom there on Saturday and it was perfect. The food was delicious as usual and the service was phenomenal. Abby did a great job taking care of us. Big shout out to the kitchen staff and everyone else who assisted in making my Mom feel loved and appreciated. I live 2 hours from the restaurant, but I make it a point to stop in almost everytime for food and drinks. Everyone has their own opinion concerning the restaurant and staff. In 10 years I have never had a bad experience here or seen anything out of the ordinary reacting to the staff or ownership. I have seen intoxicated patrons but that's it. Do yourself a favor and stop in for a meal or a drink. You won't be disappointed.“

“Overall this is a good place to have Happy Hour. I am super disappointed that the charcuterie board was taken off the menu. It was the best! Bring it back please!“

“I took my boyfriend out for a father's day dinner last night at this great new restaurant to us. Wait was only 10 minutes. Very nice decor. Love the ceiling and lighting. The cocktails were spot on! The food was delicious. But above all else, our waiter, Nick, was the best part about this. He had great energy and attentiveness. He had the funniest quips and took care of all of our requests. Thank you Nick!“

“The food, staff, and atmosphere is always great.“

“Stopped in yesterday for the first time!!! I have never felt more comfortable in a bar before. ..I can not wait to go back!! The owner is a wonderful person and the grilled cheese was one of the best I have ever had. I could go on and on....again I am already planning my next trip!!“

“We recently celebrated my parents' 70th anniversary at Kings Contrivance Restaurant, and I can't express enough how wonderful the experience was. The entire evening was perfect, from the warm and inviting atmosphere to the impeccable service. Richard, in particular, was outstanding—he answered all of my questions and ensured that everything was just right for our family gathering. The food was outstanding—every dish was prepared with care and attention to detail, making our celebration even more special. My parents were thrilled to have the entire family together for this milestone event, and they couldn’t stop raving about how wonderful the restaurant was. If you're looking for a place to host a special occasion, I highly recommend Kings Contrivance Restaurant. It was the perfect setting for a memorable night that our family will cherish forever.“

“Excellent service with great tasting food“

“The best kept secret in Howard County!“

“Best food in Towson hands down! I drive Uber in the area and this is where I stop almost 2-4 times a week for the chicken cheesesteak. Tried a few other things on the menu and everything was great, but the chicken cheesesteak is just too good!! Great owners also, I don't even like a customer when I go, I feel like family.“

“My family and I frequent this restaurant and we are always pleased with the food and the service is good as well. We went a couple of weeks ago as a family and had arrived right at 9 to the doors being locked. There were people inside and no signs on the door to say they were closing early. We thought it was odd and frustrating because the posted close time was 10 p.m. we will go back but this was extremely irritating and no one came out to say anything to us.“

“Great little local down to earth restaurant. The food was superbly prepared with attention to detail. The ingredients were very fresh and cooked to perfection.
The welcoming atmosphere makes it feel like home. We look forward to coming back every few weeks and definitely are interested in coming your way the special dinner events.“

“Best Burgers and the bread pudding dessert was so yummy.“

“The Nordstrom Cafe has the absolute best service! The entire staff is always friendly, accommodating and the food is always fresh & taste amazing! I can’t say enough good things about this place. Always a great experience! 5/5 stars! ?“

“It’s a chill place to be at this time a day the food is great anyone and everyone come to Ale House“

“I had the garden salad and french fries along with unsweetened tea and water. The atmosphere is nice and rather quiet. Alicia who was the server has a great personality, went out of her way and did a whole shift by herself predominantly. I will definitely be back at this location this thing is this hotel again“
