“Great home cooked food, locally sourced! Nothing like homemade ice cream!!!“

“I see a lot of these are older reviews and I don’t know if they have since gotten a new chef in the last 3 years but the food is phenomenal and I’m very picky! I look for things to not like and this is my second time here and can’t think of one bad thing. Service is good, but the food is literally outstanding. The mashed potatoes had great flavor as did the veggies - my steak was a tad overdone but it was so tasty it didn’t matter. Crab cake was filled with delicious lump crab! And it had flavor too — I also tried the Korean short ribs on special and they were just SO GOOD! The drinks are also delicious! And I stare at the dessert case every time I come in but I’m always too full to order anything. I guarantee they’re also to die for! Great place!!“

“We enjoyed a perfect evening for my son's rehearsal dinner! Blackwall Barn and Lodge is a great place to hold any event! Danny and the staff were extremely attentive and friendly. The food was beyond amazing. I wouldn't hesitate recommending the restaurant/Lodge to anyone. Love the atmosphere.“

“Thanks for making our Thanksgiving Dinner!“

“Excellent dining experience once again! Our first time there was about a month ago and when our waitress walked by she recognized us! Very impressive ?she said she's a school teacher and is used to memorizing so many names and faces. I forgot her name but she's a very nice person! We came in for our wedding anniversary last evening. Caroline I believe het name was took cgood care of us. She was very sweet, professional and attentive! The food was excellent. My husband had the salmon BLT which he enjoyed and I had the Bistro Steak Frites and it was perfect and delicious just as it was the last time! The gentleman who was assisting the staff ( either owner or mgr) very kindly came and replaced my dish with the correct one. Someone else had ordered it but to a different doneness. The entire staff was warm and friendly, from the servers to the mgr, owner, and hostesses. We will definitely be back and want to bring our friends whom we told about your restaurant. Keep up the great work, Ashling!“

“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.“

“This is the first time I went to this restaurant and was very pleased with the service, the food was great and we received our food fast. It was very clean and all the employees were very friendly. I will be returning for another great meal.“

“The best kept secret in Howard County!“

“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!“

“For as expensive as it can be to order food for a family from here, we do expect warm and fresh food. our food was barely room tempature and definitely old fries. The ice cream had hair in it. This place has gone down hill fast. Would not recommend.“

“really good, quality food and service at very fair prices- TJ (owner) was fantastic and takes care of each customer like they were his own family/friend. the suya, goat, fish, and plantains were all perfectly prepared and delicious. definitely highly recommend this spot not just for quality but also level of service from the owner/staff - A++ / 10 out of 10! *and they just got their liquor license as well!“

“Wonderful service and outstanding food and drinks. Highly recommend.“

“We enjoyed a lovely brunch here on a beautiful Fall day. We loved the historic building and the lovely treed grounds surrounding it. The food was outstanding and the service was exceptional. Highly recommend!“

“Ignore the exterior, this is the place for breakfast! My wife and I were in the area one day by chance and wanted something not-a-chain-restaurant for breakfast. A quick google search found this little diner tucked away on Camp Meade Rd.

It's not much to look at from the outside, which made me optimistic because some of the VERY BEST food comes from these little dive looking places and LL did NOT disappoint! It was clean, VERY reasonably priced, and clearly a local favorite. Obvious regulars had a fantastic rapport with the staff. Food was served quickly and virtually perfect in all respects.

Very much worth tracking down this little gem, and will absolutely eat there again next time we're in the area!“

“Great food and drinks. Staff is friendly and accommodating.“

“My experience at Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament was fantastic! The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. However, I was a bit disappointed that the knights didn't interact much with some of the younger members of the audience.“

“Best club sandwich! Tons of bacon, turkey and the bread is delicious!“

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

“Family friendly restaurant with positive and fun staff. My dad is vegetarian and rarely goes to restaurants because of this. He is also in his 70s and is not into doing too much. Our family had a ball there and the food options covered everyone from meat eaters to vegans. The staff were extremely pleasant and helpful.“

“Checked out Sonoma’s for the first time and left really happy we did. The atmosphere is one of the first things that stood out. Open, comfortable, and laid out well, with plenty of TVs and seating whether you’re there to watch a game or just hang out. Service was on point from start to finish.

We sampled some of the food as the new owner starts putting his own spin on the menu, and it was a great first impression.
The honey sriracha wings were outstanding, great flavor and cooked perfectly, and the pierogies were also a solid hit. Add in affordable beer prices and a strong lineup of local drafts, and it checks a lot of boxes.

Found out later in the night that it was karaoke night, which sounded like a fun time, we couldn’t stay this round, but it’s definitely on the list for next visit. Sonoma’s feels like a place that’s heading in a really good direction, and we’ll be back soon.“

“I had a wonderful experience at dennys Thanks to Eunice it was around 1 am and she was very attentive we had some dinner the food came out quickly and hot and she make sure we have all great service“

“Spurrier's Restaurant and Lounge has an incredible view and surroundings from both in and out. I just spent but a day there, and I had an incredible time. The surroundings were neat and there were ample parking lot. Staff were polite, professional, and helpful. They do sell snacks. A special occasion gave me the chance to visit and to explore what do they offer. You can book a reservation. Stairs and elevator are available but I prefer using my legs. You can't miss it. It's within the city, and businesses are all around. I didn't order any food from there, so I don't know how their food taste, but what I can say is that the occasion I was invited to, the food was great. The food is more traditional based on the event. But overall, the staff were excellent and they did their very best to get everyone situated and to feel at home. ?

Parking: Parking was free. There are ample parking lots. There are bins, recycle bins, stationed there for bottle glasses. For further questions, call the library. You can find their phone number at their website.?

Kid-friendliness: Yes, kids are always welcome with a parent or with a guardian.

Wheelchair accessibility: The sliding doors are automatic for wheelchair accessibility if using the library. However, the Trail is not ideal for wheelchair accessibility.“

“the bartender rocks 🖖✌🤟🤘🤙👌👏👏👏“

“Pats is our go-to never lets us down dinner option. We've been eating there for 6 years now since we moved to the area and I've not ever ordered something I didn't like. Not to mention that they give huge portions which I think is commendable seeing as so many of the restaurants right now are making you pay more for less due to shrinkflation.

Like I said we love everything but their pasta is amazing my husbands favorite is the chicken parmesan and mine is a tie between the spaghetti and meatballs or the chicken burrito bowl. Oh and if you like delicious things go ahead and tack on one of those desserts lol.“

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

“A restaurant inside the Double Tree hotel. It was not busy, and service was prompt and efficient. The food was just okay. The menu has a few choices in each section of appitizers, soup and salads, sandwiches and dinner entrees. The buttermilk chicken patty on the sandwich was a bit tough and tasted like the meat had been frozen. The crab cake was good, with fresh crab and not too much filler. The old bay chips had a flavor that did not appeal to me“

“The lady who took my order was friendly I got a 6 inch with provolone cheeses and grilled onions cause I wasn't sure if it was gonna be good well,It was seasoned juicy and Delicious so I will be back for a 12 inch double the meat and different toppings.“

“While I visited a few years back and loved the scrapple egg and cheese that I got and the plentiful selection which they had, when I went back a few days ago after dropping off family at the airport, they sadly appeared to be closed; hopefully not for good 😢“

“This was my first visit to BJ’s restaurant in Columbia. I was there for lunch. This menu offered a $13 lunch menu which had an item for anyone’s taste. I ordered the strawberry salad and it was delicious. To finish off the meal, asmall pizookie was included. Very satisfied. Our server Austin was also the bartender. He was personal, professional, and helpful in menu selections. In short, this is a keeper.“

“Great atmosphere and nice music!“

“I was a little skeptical when walking in as the restaurants decor was very dated. We were pleasantly surprised that the food, drinks, and service we outstanding. We had an excellent waitress named Theresa. We will be going back so we can taste the other dishes on the menu!“

“I can’t WAIT to come back here. The wings are delicious and the staff is so kind and welcoming. The wings were generously covered in sauce and I especially loved their lemon pepper wet sauce because the oil didn’t separate and that’s a reoccurring issue everywhere when I get a wet lemon pepper sauce. They also have okra which is an absolute favorite for me and to be honest, it’s probably one of the best side dishes of okra I’ve had.“

“Tasty food and great service. Highly-recommended.“

“Sat outdoors to enjoy fantastic food from an exceptional tavern menu. The beer-on-tap options were many, samples offered to hear your selection choice wheels. Service staff treated us and our two dogs more like friends than people at a table. So by and enjoy the hospitality 💯“

“First time going and, believe it is not, my fat butt couldn't eat itvall--although I gave it all I got. I will go back!!“

“First time dining there!! Food was great, all fresh, tasted good! Definitely will be back!!!! I got the chicken cheese steak deluxe... was well worth it!!!

Parking: Can be very challenging to find parking, especially during the lunch rush. Have patience, it's well worth it!“

“Yard House never disappoints in the quality of food and impeccable service. This place is my husband's and mine go to after shopping at Arundel Mills.
The menu sometimes has a new item added, but we normally share wings and another dish.
The 10-piece wings can be split into two different choices of flavors that are all good.
My husband tried the 2 plate taco which he selected the fish and birria beef.
They were packed Sunday evening, but the wait was only 20 minutes.“

“Having our church women's winter fellowship catered was great. Choosing boxed meals was very appropriate and affordable. The food was delivered on time, hot and very good. Our clean up crew was ecstatic because they did not have to break down a buffet set-up.“

“Food never disappoints, the service is great, specials they have always are delicious! Great place :)“

“Fast, Friendly and Delicious“

“We visited today for my son’s birthday. We had a large group and it was peak hours on a Saturday. Everything was amazing! Our food came out hot and correct, the entire staff seemed to work together so well and a manager walking around checking in with guests. Our server Brandi was beyond amazing. So friendly and on point. You all are lucky to have her. Bubbas 33 is my son’s absolute favorite and he enjoyed every minute.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I just have to give a huge shoutout to Abbi at the Cracker Barrel in Linthicum Heights. Wherever they found her, they struck gold! She is absolutely amazing — bubbly, warm, and the perfect person to greet guests at the door. Her personality shines the moment you walk in. She talks to people in such an open and friendly way that you instantly feel welcome. Abbi has that rare gift of turning someone’s entire day around just with her energy and kindness. Cracker Barrel truly has the right person at the front — she’s everything you’d want in a first impression!“

“absolutely the best dinner i’ve had in a longgggg time. we split the steak and crab cake and we were so completely satisfied!!! will come back soon and often!!“
