We went on a Wednesday for their Wine Wednesday bottle sale to-go, and the experience was so fun. The woman helping us was incredibly knowledgeable about wine and made it even better by offering us tastings so we could try different options before choosing. She was friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what she does. We also picked up some of their chocolates, including the chocolate-covered pretzels, and they were delicious. They had a great variety of treats and unique items to browse. If you're in the Patuxent River area and enjoy wine, gourmet snacks, and great customer service, I definitely recommend stopping by Blue Wind Gourmet!

Marilyn goes WAY ABOVE and BEYOND in helping with the planning. She not only assisted us with the menu design but in many other facets of the wedding program itself.

There really are not enough kind words for how thankful we are that Cookielyn Catering did our catering. They have a wide array of choices to work with any theme or budget. If you're planning a wedding or other event in Southern Maryland, do yourself a favor and talk to them first!!!!!

Unfortunately, a lot. This was our first time coming to a…read moredemo class and we were very disappointed. We came for the paella. We were looking forward to seeing how it is authentically made. First thing was... No paella pan! Really? Apparently it went on vacation with the Chef. Shame on her. If you have a class coming for paella, you get another paella pan. These classes are not inexpensive. As far as authenticity went, the chef went off script on several different steps we were looking for authentic and we got impromptu. I felt very bad for the Chef who was doing the demo. He was really trying to do a great job considering the circumstances. I do not hold him accountable. Except for maybe the dessert, which was sickening sweet. Could not take more than two bites That being said, we had a lovely time lovely people. The staff was very friendly. We just simply did not get what we paid for.

Disappointing Experience - Not Worth the Price…read more I was really looking forward to the Asian Dumplings Cooking Class, but unfortunately, it fell far short of expectations. The class started over 30 minutes late and ran long, which caused me to be late for my next commitment. More importantly, it wasn't truly a cooking class; it was a demonstration. Most of us simply watched, while a few lucky participants were invited to roll and seal one dumpling each. There was no hands-on learning, no guidance, and no opportunity to build skills. To make matters worse, I was seated near the back, where I couldn't see the main table well. The viewing monitor wasn't zoomed in enough to be helpful, and loud conversations around me made it hard to hear the instructor. Reserved seating was allowed, so although I arrived early, I was unable to sit in several empty front-row seats because they were being held for friends who arrived much later. The food itself was underwhelming and bland, lacking in authentic flavor, and not worth the wait. Two of the dumpling varieties used store-bought wrappers, and portions were small. The sauces were forgettable, and the pace of serving was slow, leaving us with lots of waiting and very little to enjoy. We weren't even given recipes to take home, which, after tasting the food, I wasn't too disappointed about. At $100 per ticket, I expected an interactive, educational experience with quality food and better organization. Unfortunately, I left without learning any new skills, still hungry, and feeling like I wasted both time and money. I would not recommend this class. On a good note the staff were very friendly and accommodating, but I won't be back.

I'm not on the southern side too much, so it was my first time ever seeing or hearing of this truck. There was a selection of tacos, baskets, sliders and sides. They had some tacos I was not used to seeing, such as smoked brisket tacos, sweet chili shrimp tacos and haddock (fish) tacos. I got a shrimp and haddock one for myself... OMG... they were bursting with the flavor and the aiolis (jalapeno and sweet chili respectively) were delicious with them -- you can see the other ingredients on the menu. It's o random side, yes, but I got the seaweed salad with them and was so delicious. I was quite satisfied from this meal alone, but I later on wanted to get nachos. I got an order of chicken ones, and... all the yes. I loved the chips, sauces and everything else that came with it. I don't know when I'll get to see them again, but when I do... I can't wait to try something new.

Their menu is seasonal, so I was disappointed that they didn't have their popular rockfish sliders - oh, well - another reason to check them out again! When we went, they had tacos (southwest chicken, smoked brisket, and sweet chili shrimp), soups (crab and minestrone), sliders (smoked Philly steak and cheese, spicy chicken, and BBQ brisket), and baskets (hand-cut fries). We ordered the 3 types of tacos (southwest chicken (fried chicken with cheddar Jack, pico de gallo, sriracha cream, and lettuce), smoked brisket (brisket, pico, cheddar Jack, BBQ, and lettuce), and the sweet chili shrimp (fried shrimp with pico, cheddar Jack, sweet chili aioli, and lettuce) with a side of hand-cut fries. They all came in a flour tortilla. Our favorite was the southwest chicken, because the chicken was perfectly fried; the toppings were ample, and I really liked the sriracha cream. The sweet chili shrimp was good, too, but definitely on the sweeter end; if you like sweet chili, this item is for you! The fries were perfectly fried, crisp, and seasoned. Staff here are super welcoming and friendly. I'd love to check out their other items on the menu during the summer!

Immediately greeted upon entry and chose the dining room and maybe had 3 other couples at the same time. Cole was our server and they were fantastic! Attentive and never let the beer get empty and was willing to suggest substitutions or modifications with ease and expertise! We had the crab dip to start and honestly I'd give it a 3.2/5. Definitely had a crab flavor but it had much more cheese than meat. Wifey ordered the Brussels sprouts and old bay wings as her meal and I went with the prime dip with bacon and duck fat fries. Brussels weren't hoisin like on menu but left dry with a balsamic sauce on the side! Crunchy and flavorful! 4.4/5! Wings were perfectly seasoned and huge! Perfectly crispy and delicious. 4.7/5! As for the Prime Dip! Sooo much cheese. Must have a Green Bay Packer fan in the kitchen or something but hot damn. Prime rib was flavorful. Bacon was a genius addition by yours truly. Would order again. 4.89/5. Would love a seeded hoagie roll with this. Love this old watering hole. Irish Stout was a banger and Rud Light never fails! Will return!! 4.85/5!!!!
