I arrived around 10:30am on a Monday and it was packed. There is a small yet ample parking lot with…read moreoverflow parking available on the main road. We grabbed a table inside and later moved outside. To bypass the long line, I ordered online and picked up my items. My order was ready within 15 mins and the website is user friendly. I loved the book alcove, free wifi and intentional menu. The turkey and pesto sandwich was great and I was equally satisfied with my iced, dirty chai. (total: $17) If you are tight on time, get there early or order ahead.

Breakfast should be simple and easy…read more The execution of this place pulls it off. You walk in. It's bustling with people but not overly loud. You order, put the number on the table, eat, and go. The food comes out surprisingly fast. The ingredients just taste fresh and clean. Not overly salted. It's simple food, but done right. I was surprised how much I liked the place. It's not a place you would travel to go eat. It's a place that if you're in the area and need breakfast and brunch, you can't go wrong. I recommend checking this place out.

Oh my days!! I have no words that's how good the food was. I don't even remember speaking with…read moreanyone I was with because my face was buried in my plate. It's small and intimate, but I was able to still sit comfortably with my group of 6. You have to order at the front and your food is brought out to you. Which honestly made my time there more enjoyable. I was able to really take my time and read the menu. There were so many options to pick from! The entire staff was not only friendly but extremely helpful. Portion sizes were great, the food tasted amazing but it is a bit pricy. My meal of the chicken & waffles with an ice coffee costed about $27 after tax. That's a bit steep for a breakfast meal for 1 person but the quality of service and taste definitely made it worth it.

So the flight was for different ice lattes paired with a pastry, which was a croissant a Blondie brownie, a macaroon and lastly.strawberry cake for $25. It took a while for the flight to be prepared because I think they're a little bit shortstaffed on a Monday morning, but they had a lot of comfortable places to sit and wait. The corn beef sandwich came out good and I mentioned it was simple because it's literally just corn beef with some white bread and some cheese, but it was actually pretty tasty for breakfast. The coffee flight came out and it's on a large paddle and it looked really delicious. I have to say the regular flavored lattes and the croissant weren't my favorite choices, but as I started moving down the paddleboard towards flavored lattes and the Blondi bar, it was pretty good. My favorite latte was the butter beer and my favorite pastry actually turned out to be the Blondie brownie bar. The inside has enough seating for about 50 people and it's really cutely decorated. I highly recommend stopping in if you're in the mood for a coffee after a day of shopping in Ellicott city.

Delicious overstuffed sandwiches and subs at reasonable prices in an old-school deli setting…read more So happy I decided to stop by! Came here for a quick sub for lunch, I grabbed the Al Capone sub, which is Italian ham, pepperoni, turkey, and provolone cheese. They also have their normal toppings-- lettuce, tomato, hot peppers, onions, and mayo, along with oil and vinegar. I opted out of the hot peppers, which was no problem. Service was quick and very friendly. I ordered at the register and then told them I was going to walk around town for a bit while I waited. This was no issue, and when I came back, they had my order waiting behind the counter. The only reason I had to take off a star today was the ambiance was a bit outdated. It didn't seem dirty or anything, but the inside could definitely use an update. When I say these sandwiches are stuffed, oh my gosh. I've never had a more meat-packed sub in my life. And for only like $11? It's truly unbeatable. This will definitely be my new go-to when I need a good sub.

While I have been coming to Ellicott City with friends for years. However, recently recently…read moreinstead of hitting Syriana (you can check my review), my best friend and I decided to hit up Manor Hill Tavern. A nice old building of stone and dark wood my friend and I perused the menu: very New American with lots of Maryland seafood classics. I ordered the crab cakes with fingerling potatoes and coleslaw. The crab cake, though small, was mostly lump crab meat with very little bread crumbs and served with a remoulade. Very moist and flavorful. The coleslaw was slightly bland, but I enjoyed it none the less. And the fingerling potatoes were cooked and salted to perfection. However they were lacking any real fat: no butter or oil. Now, it just so happened that my friend had purchased a bottle of Rosemary infused olive oil a mere half-hour ago. A drizzle of this turned these dry potatoes into something of a revelation, but I really shouldn't have had to doctor the meal I pay for with outside condiments to make it truly enjoyable. My friend enjoyed a hamburger with caramelized onions that was cooked precisely to her order and she enjoyed it a great deal. So, clearly, not all menu items needed as much help. The server taking care of us was very on top for job and kept our drinks filled and us happy. I really wanted to give this place a higher score, but there were too many little things off. I think with a few tweeks to some of the menu options this could be a really excellent restaurant. But currently, it's just "fine." For the price (think thirty dollars for a typical entree) I expected better.

OUT OF THIS WORLD PUMPKIN MUFFIN WITH PECANS!…read more Stopped at the Farmers Market off Rt 2 and picked up 3 items. The pumpkins muffin that was off the chart and is making me think of driving 30 min to get another one before the next market.

This was because I rushed through the online ordering and I thought I was asking for a side of S&P chips. I didn't even notice the chips. The wrap was HUGE. Busting at the seams. Really acidic. I have also figured out something about myself. I do not like Chopped Italian Subs/Sandos/Wraps. I love the idea but don't love the execution. That's not a ding on RegionAle. It was a really beautiful wrap. Wish I hadn't rushed through ordering and could have gotten chips on the side. All negatives are on me. I'll do better next time.

Georgia Grace Café | Ellicott City, MD…read more My wife, Anjelina, and I stopped at Georgia Grace Café for lunch while exploring historic Ellicott City, and it turned out to be a very enjoyable little find. As usual, we brought our collection of dietary challenges along for the ride. Between gluten and dairy allergies, my tree nut allergy, Alpha-Gal syndrome, and diabetes, we're not exactly the easiest table to feed. Fortunately, the staff was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and sensitive to our food issues, which always makes dining out a much more pleasant experience. Anjelina ordered a simple breakfast of eggs and bacon, but she had a strategy. She was saving room for the goat milk cheesecake, which she REALLY enjoyed. Sometimes the main course is just the opening act! I went with the Maryland omelet, minus the red peppers, and it was very good. I also decided to try dessert and ordered the carrot cake, which was made without nuts. A welcome discovery for someone with a tree nut allergy! The cake was good, although I wouldn't call it great. Still, it's always nice to have a dessert option that works with my dietary restrictions. And yes, the diabetes was apparently taking the afternoon off. The café itself is located in an old house, which gives it a cozy, charming atmosphere. Seating inside is somewhat limited, and the tables are fairly close together, but that's part of the character of the place. They also offer outdoor seating, which is a nice option. The location is another big plus. It's close to the historic downtown area, making it easy to enjoy breakfast or lunch and then spend some time wandering through the shops. As for who should visit? Georgia Grace Café is a great choice for casual dates, particularly a breakfast or lunch date followed by a walk through historic Ellicott City. It also works well for a casual business breakfast or lunch, although the close seating and intimate atmosphere wouldn't be ideal for a formal or confidential business discussion. For similar reasons, it probably wouldn't be my first choice for families with small children. Overall, a charming little café with very good food, excellent attention to dietary restrictions, and genuinely helpful staff. Anjelina would probably return just for the goat milk cheesecake, and I'd happily come back for another Maryland omelet!

It was our first time here, and my wife and I ordered two steak and cheese sandwiches--one on a seeded roll and the other on a baguette. We arrived about 30-40 minutes after placing our order, but the staff couldn't locate it in the system. No biggie--things happen! Per the manager, we waited another 15-20 minutes for our food, but these sandwiches were absolutely worth the wait. The sub was so creamy and cheesy, and the fries were good as well. Hands down, the best steak and cheese I've had in the DMV so far, and I've tried MANY! We will be back!
