New American Restaurants near Laurel, MD

“The food and drinks were great and so was our bartender. I didn’t get her name but she was a beautiful blonde. Thanks sweetie!“

“It was a very chilled experience. I enjoyed trying all the different food and even having the desserts. I would recommend this to anyone in the Virginia area to take some time and visit the area as well as trying the restaurant.“

“Always great food, but really enjoyed the entree sized wood grilled tenderloin steak salad tonight. First time ordering their entree salads and will definitely order again. Steak was cooked a perfect medium rare. My husband also enjoyed the cedar planked salmon. The gf turtle cheesecake was delish and dainty as usual, so no calorie concerns. Yum.“

“From the moment I stepped through the doors, it was immediately clear that this establishment operates on an entirely different level. The cuisine was nothing short of exceptional—elevated in both flavor and presentation, rivaling even the most renowned culinary institutions. Every dish was a harmonious blend of creativity and precision, truly exemplifying top-tier gastronomy. What impressed me even more, however, was the service. It transcended the standard of hospitality, offering a level of attentiveness and professionalism that felt both effortless and sincere. The staff anticipated needs before they were expressed, creating an experience that was as seamless as it was memorable. In all sincerity, this is one of the finest dining experiences I have ever had the pleasure of enjoying. A rare combination of extraordinary food and impeccable service, it’s a restaurant that sets a new benchmark for excellence.“

“This Yard House has a fantastic bartender in Sean. we are from NY and he was super personable, made effort to chat with us directly. Really fun personality. Guys like him are hard to find. This particular Yard House is very very lucky to have him , great dude.“

“Absolutely amazing. A true fine dining 5* experience from the service to the food. Will return again and again.“

“Awesome 5-star experience ruined at the end when the credit card device to pay the bill is shoved into your face with “gratuity was added; but, you can add more!” No heads-up, no breakdown on screen. Just the extra percentage options starting at you. Absolutely, oppose to this shady, non-custom focused practice especially without forewarning. Wanna ensure a tip, provide good service !!! Don't sneak it in there and then ask for more (“if you want”)! As one rarely ever tips less than 20% plus; this presumptuous practice is worse than a terrible experience. Not the fault of the excellent Turn House servers, food runners, and cook staff; but, something management needs to address before I return to The Turn House“

“Good breakfast and fun with the juke boxes.“

“the people there were absolutely the nicest to our family. the food was magnificent!! thanks for a good experience!“

“This would be my second time at Huncho House and it has not disappointed! I shared the wagyu cheesesteak eggrolls and charbroiled oysters with my wife followed by the seared sea scallops as my entree while my wife had the jerk short ribs. Overall 10/10 and the customer service was amazing.“

“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.“

“Food was absolutely delicious! My husband got the short rib with parmesan polenta, and it was fabulous. I got the special burger, which had apple butter and brie on it, and it was incredible! We both started with salads - he got the beet and apple salad, and I got the spinach and pear salad. Both were amazing!“

“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!!!“

“we loved Burton's in Riverdale Park, MD! food was delicious and very accommodating to allergens. extensive gluten free menu including wings, fried calamari, pasta, crispy fish, crab cakes, and more. everything was delicious and our server was super nice as well. wish there was one of these in Union County, NJ! So amazing to know all their food is made from scratch 👍👍“

“The best kept secret in Howard County!“

“The food was amazing and the drink was sooo good!!!!!“

“Great vegan food. Just had a special broccoli appetizer. Yum!!“

“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.“

“Delicious food and great service“

“This is the place I go to when I want perfectly made deli style food. I do not know why but I wake up once a week craving a meatball sub from Orion Sky Cafe. The cold cut sub is very good as well and I am slowly trying the other sandwiches on the menu and have not found one that was not either very fresh or well prepared. The chicken or beef teriyaki with fried rice is a very large portion and perfectly prepared. The specials are all very different and worth a try. The staff are super out going and very friendly. One of my favorite things in the restaurant is the old school food menu displayed over the drink station. I would highly recommend this restaurant.“

“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 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! ?“

“Great live music venue - lovely community!“

“We had a wonderful dining experience.
The food was very good and the portions were plentiful. The service was amazing. The Brunch option is a great choice, something for everyone. The bottomless mimosas hit the spot! I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“I made a reservation for my Hubby's birthday dinner.

This establishment was easy to locate, provided free parking, very clean, and had great tv's for sports viewing.

We were seated immediately upon arrival and greeted by Adam.
Adam had a great personality larger than life!!

Great recommendations, fantastic flow of food, and perfect for our party of 13.

Collectively, we ordered the following.

Firecracker Grilled Wings - Amazing
Brewpub Pretzel - Very tender, tasty, and huge. Magnificent mustard came w pretzel.
Crab Dip - Plentiful, above average.
Frisco Chicken Sandwich - DE-licious !!
Brickoven Pies (Cheese) - A table hit!!
Bayou Burrito - A lot of flavor, great size.
Cheesesteak Eggrolls - The table couldn't get enough of this yumminess!!
Cajun Chicken & Shrimp Pasta
Louisiana Red Jambalaya - Whoa! Large portion, flavorful, and very good.
Frisco Burger - Perfecto !! Very good.
Loaded Caesar (Small) - Fresh
Skillet Cookie- So rich, shareable.
Campfire Brownie - Rich in flavor, tasty.
Grand Marnier (Shot) - ** read below **
Long Island Iced Tea - VERY smooth!

Each and everything was great, except a double shot ordered at the table. It was smaller than a single shot. We didn't want to make a scene, so we dealt w it. But never again.

Overall, it was a great visit!
I look forward to returning to catch sporting events on 1 of the many TV's as well as Happy Hour.“

“The food was good and the service was great!“

“A WELL-ESTABLISHED & RUN PLACE! "ED'S" The Man, and really trys to appease his Customers!And although he and his trustworthy staff have to 'deal' with their share of 'characters', they manage it all with finesse and alacrity! GOOD JOB, GUYS(& GAL)!♡“

“First time here service was great server would great she would check up on us food was well season and tasty. We love eating at place that offer pichers of margarita and this place makes it just perfect.

Vegetarian options: Beans , rice , salad, just a few things that I can see of the top of my head

Kid-friendliness: Don't have kids but there were a lot of families here when dinning.“

“After being disappointed by a lot of other Chinese restaurants in the area, finally found a place that seems like they make their dumplings rather than getting them from the frozen aisle at Food Lion. The other food ive gotten from here was good too, but the dumplings are amazing.“

“Ms.Vee and Alan( Tall Gentleman) earned this review! Both were very attentive, respectful, and gave the place a good vibe that makes me want to comeback. Prices weren’t crazy, place was very homey and relaxing. Gave food 4-stars only because my lemon pepper wings were lacking t lemon pepper flavor, garlic parm wings were hitting tho. Will definitely be back“

“Dope chicken with mumbo sauce. I go here regularly.“

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

“From the moment I stepped into RJ Bentley’s for Happy Hour, I had no idea my life was about to change. But one bite into their signature dish, and it felt like the world stopped spinning. The flavors hit me like pure magic- buttery King’s Hawaiian rolls, juicy chicken fried to perfection, and a nice combo of ranch AND blue cheese on the side. It was as if each ingredient was a spell, cast to awaken my tastebuds from slumber.
Lugnuts I thank you sincerely.“

“I stopped by this spot for brunch with some friends. The wait time was decent when I arrived, but this place gets packed quickly. The food was pretty good, I tried the eggs benedict and they came out perfect. The home fries were good as well. We were served well and attended to thoroughly by the staff. Overall, this spot was good and will def be going back!“

“A hidden gem, we had a Large Party of 8, Mother’s Day with no reservations. After being turned away from 2 other restaurants, no seating. We came to The commons. Where we were welcomed to a spacious table. Great, no fantastic personal service from Sayeed & staff. Good food & drinks. Nice atmosphere, I most definitely will be back. Oh did I say there was no crowd, which allowed us to just really enjoy our Mother’s Day Lunch.“

“We were here for the M3 after party on Friday night and the staff were all friendly and amazing. We had the sound rocking, the place was packed and the service was still fast. Great Venue with in minutes of Merry Weather Post Pavilion We look forward to working with you again for future events.“

“Another successful event held at Bushel and a Peck. This time we were in their smaller private room. They also have a fantastic, large private dining area, as well as outdoor seating. I highly recommend them if you are looking to book a private party or corporate event. Or just a date night or client meeting. The staff is great, the venue is beautiful and the food is amazing.“

“Mr. Dwight and his staff are PHENOMENAL! Excellent Brown Stew Chicken & peas and rice. His kindness is RARE where most Jamaican restaurants treat you with an attitude him and his staff are the exact OPPOSITE. Amazing people and AMAZING FOOD. I’ll be back again.“

“Smoked Salmon was delicious. We dipped the bread in the Musssels. Pork and Steak cooked perfectly.“

“The food was great. However I asked for the brocoli to be removed and subsituted with grilled cegetables. They were like 3 brocoli haads and slivers of red peppers. Definately not worth the price. The rice was enough as was the fish poertion. My companion had a nice piece of steak but they had a very small portion of vegetables also. The cookie was great though. If I go back, it might be for the cookie only.“
