When we arrived there were cars parked on the side of York Road, maybe 20-25 of them. Ouch! We were lucky to grab a parking spot as someone left. My daughter went in to check on how long the wait was - and they found a table for the four of us. Needless to say it was busy... and loud with live music almost deafening. We were brought menus and waters. My wife, a friend, and youngest daughter had joined the birthday team. Three of the four girls had not tasted "real" Maryland crab cakes before, so we ordered one as an appetizer. After a bit it came and was divided for each to try. They loved it! So the four girls each ordered the Crab Cake meal and I had my eye on the Prime Rib, on weekend menu. After a wait, the meals came. The Crab Cakes came with side salads or fries. My Prime Rib came with Loaded Baked Potato and Asparagus, with horseradish on the side. The Crab Cakes were great! All the girls loved them. My Prime Rib was a different story. It was tough, many tendon(?) strings through it all that were very difficult to cut through. Now a little fat is great for flavor, but this Prime Rib was half see pic) gristle & fat. And there was no flavor to meat that was there. What I could eat, I had to salt & pepper to get any taste. Absolutely the worst Prime Rib I have ever been served. And of course we had to have dessert to celebrate the birthdays. We ordered an chocolate peanut butter pie and It was an excellent. The music was too loud to have conversations and tables having conversations talked loudly over the music, which made it even noisier! So if you love Maryland Crab Cakes, no place does it better. But stick with what they are famous for, otherwise take your chances. And if you want conversations, don't come on weekend evenings.

We have NEVER had a bad meal. The pizza is wonderful. They have a gluten free option. The portions are generous. I particularly like their apple and fig salad. They have great wings with a generous portion. My friend likes their fresh tuna salad and bowl. Again generous serving size. Very diverse menu options to satisfy everyone. This is a local gem It should be supported by the community. The owner is very philanthropic. He supports local charities churches NCR etc by donating 20 percent of collections for that day for people who come in and mention the name of the charity. Who does that every week on Tuesday and Wednesday throughout the year? Please support this restaurant!

I got the chicken…read moresalad but requested it without bread and was very satisfied that they served it to me instead on a bed of greens. One friend got the chicken Caesar salad. It's listed on the menu as a "small plate" but turned out to be a very decent size. My husband tried the key lime ice cream, which was not listed on the menu of flavors. This tasted really good too. The seating area is very limited - about six table with two chairs each. There are also a few tables outside. One drawback is that prices are not clearly listed. For instance, I could not find any signage for how much the drinks, muffins or croissants cost, which would have been helpful to me in my attempt to be a smart consumer. Overall, this is a nice place to grab a bite after walking or biking the trail. There is 30 minute parking for customers - apparently the employee told a friend of ours that they do tow away cars (I guess of hikers) but I don't know how much they enforce the time aspect.

I love tacos. Tacos hands down get the most reviews from me on Yelp…read more Location: Plenty of parking! Shared with the Monkton Refillery. Wait: There can be a little wait so ordering online is great if you don't have time to hang out. It's super easy. Service: It's a one woman shop most days and she is amazing! Food: I lived in San Diego and traveled to Mexico frequently. I'm very picky about my Mexican food. This is hands down some of the best in Maryland and definitely the best I've had in Baltimore County. My Husband agreed as he has barely enjoyed any Mexican we've had since our last trip to Mexico. I told him once you have the real deal nothing else will do. I definitely indulged. The shrimp tacos are my fave as I don't really eat meat. The veggie tacos are also pretty darn good! The Mexican slaw, pickled veggies, and elote (in a cup) are also super good. Next time I plan to try the fish tacos since they offer them gluten free! Yes, almost everything is gluten free. This is huge for us Celiacs as fish tacos are often out of reach. Great spot! Must check out!

Now luckily I chose to sit at one of the picnic tables near the truck which was relaxing with a wooded view. The corn dish is made with kernels and was absolutely smothered in mayo sauce.

The staff here definitely play on theme with the big truck, the bathrooms are immaculately clean here, and they have wrenches as door openers, tp holders. The area is on top of a hill so the views are phenomenal. The beer selection was good - I don't drink beer anymore but I tried their seltzers and liked them. You can also get a flight and get 32 ounce cans to do. They have a rotating option of food trucks, and on the day we wen't they had a Jamaican truck. My friends got some food and I think they liked it. I opted to get a pizza by the brewery and really liked it, I was surprised how good it was. They no longer offer archery - my friends told me they did this once. They have board games and giant Jenga. I will say they don't have ANY NA beers or options other than water and sodas, just FYI. A fun outing if you like breweries.

Our server, Dee, maintained a professionally cordial and accommodating demeanor throughout the service. The cream of crab soup was exceptional: It possessed a desirable thin consistency, avoiding the heavy, pudding-like texture sometimes encountered. The portion of crab meat was generous. The flavor profile was exquisite. The quality of the draft beer indicated meticulous maintenance of the beer lines. The brownie sundae was satisfactory. Areas for Improvement (Negative Observations): My filet mignon was served with noticeably burnt edges. This was only discovered late in the meal, as the service up to that point had been ideal. Overall Conclusion: The overall rating assigned is a B+. Given the presence of the executive chef, an A-level performance was the expectation.

The crunchy onion straws. Then I bit into the white, flaky meat, hopeful it would match the caliber of its accompaniments. I was sadly mistaken. To avoid reaching for my dad to give me the Heimlich, I gulped water to get it down. Considering fish comes from water, it's quite a trick to make it taste like kindling. If you're going to serve your patrons dry fish and make them sweat to death in your hot dining room while they wait for refills, kindly put a carafe of water on each table. Or let them wear CamelBaks. Our waitress was clearly overworked. She was managing about 20 tables, making it hard to get more water--or anything, really. At least put man bun to work and have him ask customers if they need anything. Like water. If it were socially acceptable for me to wring my shirt into my glass, I would have. I didn't want to embarrass my father, so I refrained. I swore I wouldn't rip any more restaurants, but no one asked why I left three-quarters of my fish on the plate. Not the overworked waitress. Not the manager, who walked past our table half a dozen times, intentionally dodging eye contact. If they had, I would have told them the truth. Frankly, I think they already knew. So here we are. The truth hurts sometimes. Just like dry fish going down the gullet.
