New American Restaurants near Odenton, MD

“Incredible food with great prices. The staff is very friendly.“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!!!“

“Taylor was working the bar and was absolutely phenomenal! We had been connecting at multiple airports for this trip and this was the BEST service we have received the whole trip. Taylor was attentive and so friendly. It was busy during our visit, restaurant and bar was full, but we got the drinks we ordered quickly and so we didn’t even notice. Amazing experience and will definitely come back if we are ever connecting in Baltimore!“

“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.“

“The best kept secret in Howard County!“

“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!“

“Great food, fantastic service! A hidden gem!“

“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.“

“I love the Delmarva area and am happy to get there even for a minute. I was flying through BWI with my daughter on an early flight. There was a two hour layover and we were both hungry. I knew where to go. I proceeded to the Silver Diner. Concourse B. It was around 8:30am and the place was not extremely busy. I told my daughter we would sit at the bar, although there are a few booths. Sitting at the bar brings a hidden secret. There are electrical outlets and both my daughter and I were able to charge our phones.\n\nThe menu ranged from breakfast to burgers and seafood items were available. I was torn between the sliders, crab cakes and breakfast. The hotess gave me an option I couldnt refuse- a crab omlet. If you know me, french fries are a staple so that's what I ordered. My daughter had the carmel french toast with some sausage.\n\nThe food came out in and was awesome. The omlet was bigger than I expected and came with my fries and a breakfast bisquit that was really great. There actually was crab meat in the omlet and I knew I was on the east coast.\n\nMy daughter loved her breakfast and I loved mine. Service was awesome and not rushed. The hostess allowed us to eat slowly while we watched sports on TV abd charged our phones.\n\nI did forget that eating in airports is not cheap and adding seafood makes it a bit steeper. My omlet was about $26. (I'm not in Wisconsin anymore!)\n\nPlease note: I was here earlier this year and forgot to give a review. I had the baby burgers (you get 4) and a beer. I wanted a milk shake but it wouldnt go with the beer.\n\nThis place is great for all around food, drinks and desserts. It does off a bakery at the entry in case you want some plane snacks.\n\nI WILL RETURN.....“

“Great outdoor dining area.“

“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.“

“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 overall experience was excellent“

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

“OMG. What are the chances that I run into Ms. Khadijah again? On top of that, I had mistakenly thought my flight was earlier and ran into Raymond but he gave me the low down. He was a sweetie pie, too. Man, I miss the East Coast! Nothing but cool peeps like me just living their lives. After learning that I had a 4 hour layover, I was STOKED. Saw my girl, Khadijah for my returning flight to LA!! I was ECSTATIC! YOU HAVE NO IDEA. It's not the drink but the great vibes and company at Martini. In fact, I noticed that when she's working, she's always got a full bar. It's her excellent attitude and vibe! I showed up and she had everyone up at the bar so I sat to the right of the bar so I can charge my phone! Even better, she remembered me! She told me that you can grab a drink if you have family, and sit across the way, if need be because those under 21 cannot sit at the bar.

2025.11-05/WED_1400: Just finished a long flight from LAX and had a two hour layover at BWI. I found the only bar between Concourse A and B. Originally, I was trying to stay close to gate A8. Had no idea my gates had changed to gate B.

Martini is located at the top of the escalator on the way to Concourse B and the food court. The airport is under construction but you'll see it when you look for the escalator. There was a good amount of customers that looked like they were also on a layover having a great time.

The bartender was a gorgeous lady by the name of Khadijah. It's so wonderful to see her beautiful smile and wonderful attitude. I don't know how she does it dealing with some grumpy and idiotic people! She's incredible just knocking everyone out with her wonderful customer service, attitude and SMILE. This changed her from beautiful to gorgeous or gorgeous to stunning. Whichever is top notch! Hospitality is 200%! Some customers feel so entitled and she handled everyone like a champ. No fuss, just a lovely attitude and she let stuff roll off her like waterproof wood stain.

She also made me a drink called a Sexy Mule which had muttled blueberries, a flower of some sort (can't remember which flower liquor she told me) and extra ginger (it looked like pink lemonade garnished with blueberries). It hit the spot! Great suggestion! It was nothing like those bland Moscow Mules.

If you are wondering where to go after a long flight and you're stuck at BWI for a long layover, I would suggest you see Khadijah at Martini because you won't receive stellar hospitality at any other bar at BWI like this! I'll be returning to BWI next week so I hope I see her again for my insane layover!

“Great food and service! The new pistachio lat-tini is amazing!“

“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.“
