“I was on the way to lunch and saw a coworker of mine's walking to Terry's cafe. At the time I didn't know he was going to Terry's cafe, I picked him up he took me there and I ordered my food. They were so friendly the food delicious and the owners were very courteous and professional and even gave me 3 chocolate chip cookies free. Highly recommended 5 stars if I could give more I will give them 10 stars.“

“They have a small parking lot but we ended up ubering this evening. We didn't have a reservation (Friday evening 7:30 pm) and we were able to get a seat right by the door. They were definitely very busy but our server was still attentive and friendly. My friend ordered a flight of wine and I ordered a glass of the Poggio Le Volpe, 'Roma Rosso'. The wine, as always was delicious. My friend ordered the IBWC Fall Burger and I ordered the Grilled Bistro Steak Frites. The Steak was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. We had also ordered side Caesar salads. It was restaurant week and neither of us opted into the the 3 courses for a price option but our server did kindly inform us that she grouped it that way to help us save and include the dessert. We ended up getting the Nutella dessert (I don't recall what it was called). While the presentation wasn't great, it was very good and I would recommend it.

Wish I lived closer so I could come here more often but it is one of my favorites in the area.“

“What a great atmosphere and food was great! Will return and highly recommend 👍“

“The food was amazing. Very cool little Main Street place.“

“We had the fried green tomatoes as our first appetizer. They were tender and topped with lumps of crabmeat. Spectacular! Then we had the fried cheese appetizer. I can’t remember the name of the cheese, but it was delicious in the accompanying sauce and olive oil and pesto. All of the dishes we had came out perfect. My filet medallions were so tender,they melted in my mouth. Hubby got the pork loin over mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts and loved it. We will definitely come back!“

“Food and service is outstanding“

“Thanks for making our Thanksgiving Dinner!“

“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.“

“Enjoyed having brunch here! The mussels were delicious and we had excellent service from Logan! Food was brought out fresh & hot, drinks were cold & refreshing & dessert was worth it! We will be back! Thanks!“

“Great food as always and awesome servers. Our server, Maggie, took the time to help me understand menu, especially what was on the item I wanted. I have a learning disability and she took the time to break down the item I was looking for without me feeling pressured. She was kind and checked on my family and I every so often. We come to Oscar’s a lot, but she’s one of the first servers I’ve had anywhere that has taken the time to help slow things down and make it understandable.“

“Best steak wrap I have ever had in my life. If I could have given more stars I would have. Our waiter was also very attentive. But this is not the place to go if you're looking for atmosphere...not really a Trolley Stop, more like a gritty hole in the wall. But I'd go back in a heartbeat for the food and service.“

“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.“

“Wonderful Mother’s Day experience. The rockfish was cooked to perfection. The staff was kind and very attentive. Everyone even gave kind complements to our 84 year old grandmother! Highly recommend:)“

“Had a great time at Glenwoods in Owings Mills, MD for a last minute girlfriends Friday night meetup. Food, service and ambiance were great. Loved the lemon drops so much I had 2. Definitely recommend their fried calamari and they had a non-regular menu special seared tuna appetizer that I really enjoyed. One of my friends gave the Skillet cornbread a thumbs up and while they enjoyed the flavor of the chicken meatballs, the sauce wasn't the best apparently. The ribs very tender and well cooked and love their little shoestring fries (perfectly crispy but still soft in the center & lightly salted). Our server Ashley ( fingers crossed I have her name right ) was very friendly and attentive.“

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

“Delicious food and great service“

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

“Wonderful host and waitress. Good food!“

“It was our pleasure to have Becca as our server today, she was attentive, friendly and she is an asset to Friday's!!“

“we dine here frequently. The servers are all friendly and wonderful. Food is fantastic.“

“I wanted something more than McDonald's or Chik Fila A so I googled this spot on my way to work. I had to be at work by 7. They open at 630am. That is awesome. I was greeted as soon as I entered ( I can't imagine that happening when it's crowded, but it was only about 3 others there at the time). You can eat in as there is a lot if seating.I received my order very quickly. It was just a breakfast sandwich, but It was made as I requested and I had no complaints. In fact, I went two days later and got another breakfast sandwich and homefries. They do have daily specials as well. Give them a try. I will be going back.“

“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!“

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

“The crabcake and shrimp salad club was the best sandwich I've ever eaten in my entire life!!!!“

“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.“

“This place is absolutely amazing. Best Lemon Tart I’ve had in a long time. The Chocolate Mousse is delicious and the Macaroons are amazing. Coffee is also very good! Very nice staff and cute cozy dining area. Must go!“

“The fish was amazing and the jazz room is the perfect vibe for a first date or a cocktail with best friend! Absolutely loved it“

“I’m not super into BBQ, but Iron Flag BBQ has changed everything for me. The brisket was tender, pulled pork was to die. The Mac and cheese surprised me the most, hands down the best Mac and cheese I’ve had! Highly recommend!“

“The staff was great 15/10 service!!! I could see parking being a little difficult depending on the time of day (the later in the evening the more difficult it could be). The cream of crab soup was definitely a no go. It lacked flavor and the texture/ consistency of it was very odd, salt and pepper couldn’t even help, it was just flat out bland. Drinks were awesome, specially the rum punch! The salmon Alfredo was very delicious and the chef salad was hearty and fresh. The seating was challenging the chairs were very comfortable and the tables were elegant however the chairs are way too short for the tables. Cutting up my salad was tedious and annoying since my arms had to be held at shoulder level to accommodate for the height of the table. It was a dinner workout! I’m almost 5’6” and the table height coincided with my armpit. So had the chair and table height ratio been better I would have given 5 stars even though the soup was not tasty.

Parking: The parking lot is shared with two other businesses a motel and a restaurant.“

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

“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.“

“My family and I (party of 5) dined here on Saturday around 4pm to celebrate my dad’s birthday. We didn’t have a reservation, but thankfully they were able to accept walk-ins. For the starters, we ordered the roasted mushroom flatbread, a golden beet salad, and grilled artichokes. For entrees, we ordered the rainbow trout, filet mignon, chilean sea bass, and pork chop. Everything tasted amazing. My mom and sister were pleased with how perfectly their steaks were cooked. My chilean sea bass was so delicate and the sauce with it was delicious (ordered this per the server’s suggestion). In regards to service, Phil, our server, took very good care of us. He had a thorough knowledge of the menu and served us with enthusiasm, warmth, and kindness. I highly recommend you ask for Phil when you dine here. :)“

“I love this place. I have been going here since the early 2000s. Their mambo sauce is incredible. Its just a shame I moved 2 hours away and can no longer get the mambo sauce. I tried store bought and its crap compared to their mambo. I gotta figure out the recipie so I can make it at home and not drive 2 hours just for a mambo cheesesteak“

“THE greatest and nicest bar I have ever been to; good wine, great food, best bartenders, and the owner is super sweet! Chef is tops, in my book! We love it and have made a lot of friends. Try it, you're gonna love it!“

“This was our first time here. I was pleasantly surprised to find that not only did they have the traditional America's best menu but they also had Halal food and pizza. I was so excited ?. We ordered chicken and fries combos.The food was hot, fresh , crispy and so delicious. We also ordered Shrimp over rice and Lamb over rice. They were both delicious ?! The folks that worked there were nice as well. We will be back!“

“My wife and I came there for our three year anniversary of our marriage and Leena was our waitress. The level of service from start to finish was amazing and the food was 5-star. Compliments to Leena, the hostess, and the chefs who prepared the meal and provided such an amazing experience for our first time coming there. Thank you!“

“I had an absolutely delightful dining experience! The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented, making each dish a pleasure to savor. Sujita's exceptional support and attentiveness truly elevated the evening, ensuring that everything went smoothly. I appreciate the personal touches and recommendations that made the meal even more enjoyable. I’m already counting down the days until my next visit!“
