The good prices and generous portions are just the ribbon on the prize. The dinner, I had the veal cutlet. Wow. The veal was the size of my head, and cooked just right. The gravy had just the right consistency. Breakfast on Saturday was an early one, and I had the country fried steak. Again, perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Sunday breakfast I tried the chipped beef. It had ALL the flavor and wasn't gritty tasting like some other diners. The service is ALWAYS friendly and fast, I've never had to wait for a seat, and my food comes out piping hot. The coffee is always fresh and they leave plenty of creamer. Parking is a little tight but not insane. Last but not least, they bring the check in a reasonable amount of time. I hate waiting forever for the check. The restaurant is clean, and brightly painted. There is also counter seating if you're flying solo. Definitely a place with local color, I think I found my new favorite spot on the Dundalk/Essex side of town!!!

After my dentist appointment in Dundalk and in need of a little latte, I stumbled upon Joanna's…read moreCafe nearby. A cute little shop that was warm and inviting. The perfect spot for locals to grab a coffee on their way to work or an afternoon lunch spot. Joanna's has a really nice menu with quite a few breakfast and lunch options. As well as a decent drink menu for whatever may suite your fancy at the moment. I settled on a Pistachio and Rose Latte, a Sausage and Cheese breakfast sandwich, and a huge Black Bottom Muffin. The latte was little on the sweet side for me, but the flavor was decent. The breakfast sandwich I got on an asiago bagel, and it was pure deliciousness. The chicken sausage was seasoned nicely, and the asiago bagel was so soft and pillowy. I thoroughly enjoyed this sandwich. And the muffin was quite tasty too. With so many items to try on Joanna's menu and their good customer service, I'll definitely be back to try some other things when I'm in the area.

I've had a lot of Reubens, and I have to say it was absolutely a top contender with great texture and flavor. The corned beef was sliced thin and was super tender and not too salty, the rye bread was toasted nicely, and the proportions of all ingredients made for a perfect flavor balance. That they were able to pull this off in a festival tent is remarkable. So kudos to them. The other food that was coming out also looked good. If I'm ever out in Dundalk I'll definitely be stopping by for another delicious Deli-ish Reuben.

This was my first time ordering from Deli-Ish and I was pleasantly surprised by the outcome. I've…read moredriven past this vendor multiple times in Dundalk, but never stopped in. So today I had a company luncheon and saw Deli-ish on the CaterNation sight. I looked over the menu and saw that they weren't too expensive, pretty much reasonable. Knowing I had Faculty with dietary needs, I reached out to a CaterNation agent if this vendor could alter any sandwich for a person who's gluten free and to my surprised they replied by saying the vendor could accommodate. A total WIN!! I placed my order for an arrival time of 1130 today ( 9/24/25), to my shocker they delivered the food 15 minutes earlier. Something I'm definitely not mad at. The delivery was helpful and very punctual. Another Win!! The lunch boxes were in a brown box (nothing special). On the inside they had the sandwich/wrap, a bag of kettle chips, and a little serving of coleslaw, with Mike's mustard and mayonnaise packets. The sandwich was HEFTY (in a good way) I ordered a roast beef and another coworker ordered a tuna wrap, which was also HEFTY. They were so hefty I couldn't finish it, I wrapped the remaining up for later. The roast beef was well done (I prefer medium), but I understand why it was well done, but it was still good. My coworker said her tuna was delicious and sweet. She said it tasted like they put sweet onions in the wrap and dill in the tuna salad. The kettle chips were good as always and cole slaw was okay not bland, but not sweet either. Again another win! Final verdict, I'll be ordering from them again!!

I usually go with an Iced Mocha- which is top tier Crab dip bagel - GOATed Honestly any pastry item from this bakery is great, they don't miss, Steph Curry type stuff.

I actually found Union Hill while planning my friend's 40th birthday dinner from another state, and from the moment I reached out, everything just flowed. I inquired about hosting a dinner and one of the owners, Matt, got back to me within a day. From there, the planning felt effortless. He answered all my questions, stayed in communication, and really helped bring the whole vision together. We had close to 30 people for the dinner in one of their private dining areas, and when I say the staff was impeccable... they were ON IT. My friend had no idea where she was going, so this was a full surprise. Once we gave the staff the green light, they were ready and immediately started accommodating everyone. Everything just flowed from there. We did family-style appetizers, which I loved because everyone got to try a little bit of everything. Everything was flavorful and came out at the perfect pace. For my entrée, I had the salmon and it was so good. And listen... I hosted the whole thing, ate there that night, AND still had leftovers to take home. That's always a win. They were also super accommodating leading up to the event. I was able to drop off the cake and cake pops the evening before, and I was even able to decorate the private dining area, which made everything feel really personal. What could have easily been a stressful experience ended up feeling seamless. The restaurant atmosphere is beautiful. The private dining area worked perfectly for our group, and they even have an upstairs outdoor area as well as a downstairs outdoor space, which I didn't get to experience this time but definitely want to the next time I go back. I'm so grateful I came across Union Hill Kitchen & Craft Bar. It made such a special occasion even better.

We had a miscommunication during my order and when food came out, she quickly realized the problem. I want to give her praise because before we could even talk about who might have made the mistake, a corrected order was already sent to the kitchen. I'm almost certain I caused the mistake, but Martina resolved things swiftly. I don't usually do breakfast places twice but I would come back for the service and food.We ordered the following: Happy face pancake: 8/10 - she wished it was a little crispier but very good. Half and half: 9/10 - good and sweet Crab hash: 10/10 - phenomenal! I added Queso fresco Old fashioned: 8/10 good and strong! Mimi (manager I believe) checked on us often. Martina is the highlight.

The food came out with scarcely a wait, and was cooked just right. And it was the best sandwich I've had all week!!! Seasoned perfectly, and served with a cup of steaming Au Jus. The fries were crispy on the outside, just how I like them. The wood paneling and Formica tabletops harken to a simpler time, as does the menu. While well worn, everything is obviously clean and well cared for by an owner and management team that really cares. The prices are reasonable, considering the amount of food you get. The staff is friendly and funny, with some folks trading jokes with the local regulars. The Essex feels like the diners of old, and I wish there were more like these still around. I can't wait to see how breakfast is after this great dinner!
