New American Restaurants near Savage, MD

“The best kept secret in Howard County!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!!!“

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

“I recently hosted a large party here, and the staff were easy to work with and accommodated our large group. It was the perfect setting (both inside and outside). The cocktails and food were awesome, and the staff was friendly.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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! ?“

“Delicious food and great service“

“Great live music venue - lovely community!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!“

“Went here after a wedding and had a blast. The barmaid was very helpful in suggesting good drinks and beers to try. Never had to wait long for a drink even though she was working the bar herself, and it was pretty busy. I will definitely go back next time I am in town“

“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!“

“We are from Philly. Showed up on the middle of an orioles playoff game. The place and people are great!! Awesome food. Good place!!“

“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“

“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“

“The drinks can be hit or miss, there's not a lot of consistency, but OMG the service! We had Taylor (i think that was her name) tonight and she was *on point*! She was absolutely fantastic!“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“Great food. The service was great and a comfortable atmosphere“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“
