8 Best American Restaurants near Piney Point

“We came to the Ruddy Duck while in town visiting family so we could have a belated anniversary date.. We had a most incredible experience...our server David was attentive and pleasant without being over bearing...his menu recommendations were on point! The crab dip is stellar...my husband and I got what was on special...he got the crab cake burger with duck fat fries and I got the steak frites...everything was cooked perfectly! The duck fat fries beat out the well known ones from our current home town, and the steak was melt in your mouth...the mushroom peppercorn sauce was to DIE for... I was so thrilled that Chef agreed to sell me a small container of just the sauce to take home. My husband is going to regret that he brought me, because now we are going to have to go back every time we come back to visit family...10 stars out of 5! ❤️“

“great food, great service, great view“

“Quinn provided excellent service! Both the food and the cocktails were superb! Such a great experience!“

“Best homemade pumpkin pancakes around!!!!“

“A really nice place to eat. The restaurant is actually in Maryland because it sits on a pier on the river. Great views over the river. The food is good and the seafood fresh. The best Rockfish I've had. Fast friendly service and staff. The only downside is no beers on tap, bottles only.“

“A true gem that will satisfy all your needs...fast service from a good team, generous pours, great big burgers and pizza that could stand on its own as a pizza joint! Even had a great Filipino app we loved. Weekends we have enjoyed good bands and not so loud you can't talk as well. Just a fun spot to watch your games and not break the bank! Our goto spot now that the new owner apparently turned it around!“

“Late review. I have been to this restaurant several times but most recent was on Friday, 2/13/26. I can not remember the name of our waitress but she had red glasses on and was FANTASTIC. She was attentive and respectful. The food on this day was just incredible - major kudos to the chef. I ordered the cheesesteak eggrolls, poutine, and turkey club. I can not wait to come back to get these same menu items. Additionally, this place is very CLEAN!!! We are lucky to have this amazing restaurant so close to us!“

“The food gets an A. The service and the atmosphere get a 20 on the 10 scale. If we were local this would be our new Sunday morning spot. The homestylecooking, friendly amazing service, like everyone is family when you walk in. Perfect perfect perfect. Thank you so much to making the last stop of our weekend trip such a memorable one!“
