    Butter Chicken
    Angie C.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Arriving at Peerce's brings an immediate sense of calm and beauty.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] From the moment we stepped inside, we were warmly welcomed and seated. The manager, David, greeted our party of four and acknowledged our dual wedding anniversaries as the occasion for our visit. Nice touch! He also checked on us periodically throughout the evening. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is lovely inside, tastefully decorated and comfortable. A cozy fireplace burned in the dining room and there was lively conversation throughout, but tables were adequately spaced so that we could talk amongst ourselves with difficulty hearing each other.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was prompt, arriving just as we were being seated, offering water for the table and taking drink orders. On to the food. Wow! Talk about a party in your mouth! It was our first time here, and we will be back! For starters, we shared a few small plates; the Crab Khumbi, which had the perfect balance betwen delicate and flavorful, and the Pulled Pork over Pumpkin Polenta. The pork dish had a nice spicy kick and a rich, but tangy flavor, complimented by the sweetness of the pumpkin polenta - highly recommend. My husband ordered the Cauliflower, Coconut and Crab soup, which he proclaimed to be outstanding. Rich but not heavy, and bursting with notes of spice, cilantro and cool cucumber; he said he would definitely order again. The small plates portions are enough for four people to have a generous bite or two. For our entrees, our friends ordered the Shrimp Balchao and Fish Curry, and they both raved about the explosive flavor. My husband also ordered the Fish Curry, while I had Butter Chicken. Oh my gosh, we all chowed down on this deliciousness, taking a moment to dunk our warm, toasted Rosemary & Sea Salt Naan with every other bite. The wine list is extensive and cocktails were expertly crafted and tasty. We didn't have room for dessert, but did view the menu and it looked very appetizing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I cannot wait to return to this gorgeous restaurant, and perhaps even dine outside among the lovely gardens and decor. There are heat lamps for cooler weather.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bar was also warm and cozy, with large TVs visible for watching sporting events, but not so garrish that it had a sports bar feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can see Sunday afternoons watching football and enjoying a few small plates with friends in our future. Do yourself a big favor and reserve a table!

    I had dinner with a friend at Peerce's last week, and I left a little underwhelmed sadly. My expectations were high, because I'd heard great things about Peerce's - I've seen it on Baltimore Magazine's Best Restaurants in Baltimore list several times. But it didn't live up to those high expectations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is stunning. Before the two brothers behind Ananda and the Ambassador Dining Room opened this Indian restaurant in the space in 2019, various restaurants and businesses had been in the space for more than 80 years. The team at Peerce's has done an amazing job renovating the space and making it truly stunning. There's dark wood paneling, mural or wallpapered walls, stained glass, fireplaces, and a gorgeous patio (although too cold on the evening we visited in January to enjoy).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was also great - very friendly and helpful. The menu is varied. They serve North Indian/Punjabi dishes, with lots of seafood specialties. We ordered a few things to share: Fish curry (wild-caught black cod in spicy coconut curry sauce), Malai Kofta (vegetable croquettes and spiced cream sauce), Palak Paneer (organic creamed spinach and homemade paneer), Bhindi Pyaaz (okra, onions, and traditional spices), and classic naan. I thought the food was in general. The okra, palak paneer, and naan were also classic but didn't stand out as anything terribly special. The fish curry was fine as well but I found the portion size very small for the price ($37). The malai kofta is where they really lost me. I've had malai kofta lots of times (I was a vegetarian/vegan for around 10 years, and it was one of my favorite dishes to order during those years - and I still love it today as a very failed vegetarian), and this version really confused me. The menu led me to expect the traditional creamy sauce, but Peerce's version looked and tasted like tomato paste. It was overly sweet and tasted quite concentrated, underseasoned, and bland. It was a bright red and fell very flat. I wouldn't say that any of the dishes blew me away, but the malai kofta was a disappointment. We did order a couple of glasses of wine (they offer a few Indian wines which we were keen to try and enjoyed), and the service and ambiance were topnotch. Unfortunately - for me - the food was just underwhelming. Since it's a bit of a hike for those of us that live in Baltimore City, I don't expect to make the trip to eat at Peerce's again any time soon sadly.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]another magical meal at this place that is designed FLAWLESSLY and feels like a aristocrat's dining room surrounded by a secret garden ![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We celebrated an 80th bday and the watermelon salad was VERY exciting, as was the dairy free shrimp curry. Always great cocktails too. A must see and try experience.

    Shrimp Balchao
    Stefan S.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Excellent meal, great service and a nice restaurant that is both comfortable and is a nice setting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] David, one of the manager's, was super pleasant and checked on us at our table a couple of times to make sure all was good. Our servers were Nevea and Rio and they were outstanding and took care of all of our needs. The garlic naan, gobinda, and the shrimp balchao were all excellent. Our servers recommended several dishes, this one included, and it was excellent. My friend got the duck, also highly recommended and she loved it. We ended our meal with rice pudding and it was delicious. Something about ordering rice pudding at an Indian restaurant makes it so delicious and light. Though the Challah bread pudding for dessert sounded amazing, but it sounded like a heavier dessert and I was so full. This was my first time to Peerce's, but most certainly not my last. I look forward to coming back and trying another highly recommended dish. I can't recommend this restaurant enough and I highly recommend a visit here.

    always a great experience at peerce's! [[HIGHLIGHT]]hugeeee restaurant with lots of indoor and outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]inside there are maybe 10 real fireplaces all spread out which give a cozy, homey vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]it is decorated very nicely and i love the plush chairs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] despite the size, def make a reservation! we had wonderful, attentive, and quick service. everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. fresh, flavorful, and tasty. not super heavy either (depending what you get) like some indian restaurants. the naan bread and crispy spinach are a must. i recommend the reshmi kabob if you want something flavorful yet light. great variety of vegetarian options too -- the lentils are superb! a bit pricey for the portion size but not outrageous. will def be coming back!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the outside Peerce's may look like a typical restaurant, but stepping inside it is an absolute masterpiece of architecture and design. Each room is beautifully decorated with unique character and charm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The fireplaces in every room adds an extra layer of coziness which is nice in the winter months.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was great. The duck was perfectly crispy, the coconut rice was bursting with flavor, and the lamb chops were seasoned and cooked well. Their fresh naan was a standout. Service was another highlight with attentive staff ensuring everything arrived hot and in a timely manner. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Peerce's truly delivers on both ambiance and culinary excellence.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can't wait to return! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a date night, drinks, or something with a larger crowd.

    Shrimp Balchao (no polenta) and Lobster Khas

    I am shocked that this doesn't have close to a perfect rating. We have been countless times and always immediately want to go back. The Shrimp Balchao is one of the most perfect entrees I have ever tasted. Other notables are the Gobinda, crab kochi, duck, and both the crab and lobster entrees. I have never had anything that disappointed me in the least. ​I have to order the shrimp balchao every time because it is that good. Easily the best restaurant in Baltimore County and in my top 3 in the region.

    This is one of the most unique and charming restaurant settings I've seen. The great part is that the food and service don't fall short. The staff is sincere in their welcoming hospitality setting a great tone for the evening. The food is fresh, well prepared, and packed with authentic flavors. There are so many delicious dishes on the menu that I encourage sharing so all can enjoy each one individually. Loved wandering through the rooms taking in the amazing craftsmanship and detail found in every corner. Such a treat and pleasurable evening!

    Lemon souffle
    Jed W.

    Made it back to Peerce's and I feel the same way as last time. The food was quite good but the cocktails were really not great. And the prices seem to have gone up while the quantity has gone down. For example, an order of samosas costs $8, but that's just ONE samosa. Just one. The main courses are $35-45 and not all that big. The setting is beautiful and the folks there are helpful and kind if not all that warm, but I had to go down to 3 stars given the poor quality drinks and the significantly over priced food. If you choose to eat here definitely get the shrimp balchao, it was stellar. The gobinda appetizer as well and the samosas are great. The duck was very good, the chicken tikka masala as well. The garlic Naan is very garlicky but I like that. The lemon souffle was quite good. The molten chocolate cake was good but the molten part wasn't molten.

    I have been dying to give Peerce's a try and finally got the chance this past weekend. Peerce's is located in a sprawling building across from Loch Raven reservoir. If you've ever driven through this area, odds are you've passed it and never even realized it. Apparently it used to be a hunting lodge and offered American fare but 2 years ago, the former owners of Ambassador Dining Room took over and completely gutted the place. The inside is absolutely stunning and the patio is gorgeous. They can fit 200 people in their outdoor dining section alone so you can imagine the inside is massive! The service was impeccable with our waiter, William, helping us out all night long with suggestions and nuggets of knowledge about the owners and the establishment. Being that it was my first time there, I convinced my date to let us order a bunch of small plates and share it family style. I am so glad I got my way because each small plate was better than the last! We ordered... 1. The Kerala cakes (crab meat) 2. The meat samosa 3. The chaat samosa 4. The vegetable cuddy 5. The gobinda (cauliflower) 6. The naan Everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The crab meat was particularly fresh and reminded me a lot of ceviche. The meat samosa was perfectly delicate on the outside and rich and hearty on the inside. The chaat samosa was like a deconstructed samosa and was filling and spicy. As great as all those dishes were, the stars of the show were definitely the vegetable cuddy and the gobinda. The vegetable cuddy featured spinach and onion fritters in a delicious, creamy sauce. SOOO GOOD! The gobinda featured perfectly crispy cauliflower florets that were dressed in a spicy yet sweet sauce. I will 1000% be back to try more from the seasonally rotating menu and I will certainly grab a seat on their gorgeous patio next time. Peerce's lives up to the hype and I think elevated Indian cuisine is exactly what this area was lacking before.

    My first visit to Peerce's. Rockstar loves the place and wanted to introduce me to some unique Indian cooking. The first impression is the beautiful interior and décor. We ordered a couple of drinks and started with the Crab Kochi and Gobinda. Both were excellent choices especially the Gobinda (fried Cauliflower with chile sauce). For entrees we ordered the Shrimp Balchao and Garam Masala Goat. I saw previous reviews that mentioned small portions. We could not finish ours and took them home. The portions were perfect! Goat is a very difficult dish to prepare because the goat needs a very long cooking process for tenderization. The Chef did it well and the sauce was layered nicely, meaning onions, scallions, fried spinach was added at the end to offer perfect texture and keep the ingredients from being over cooked. We finished this delightful meal with apple cobbler and cardamom ice cream. The service was very good and the waiter was helpful with our questions about the ingredients and the heat level (spice) of the entrees. Good price/value relationship. Awesome ambiance.

The French fries and potato salad were really good. The fresh vegetables had onions in it. I am not a big onion fan. The coleslaw was good. Next time, I will order the fish, with just one side- the potato salad was very large. For an appetizer, I will get the clams again, and the crab hush puppies.

A nice meal with an outstanding server and a view of the water made for an excellent day. The host and the people helping out to clear the table were very nice, also.

Our server (I wish I could remember her name) was so attentive and nice. She made sure we were well taken care of and felt welcomed for our first time dining at Costas Inn. I got their Shrimp Salad Sandwich and a side of their Creamed Spinach. That might have been the best Shrimp Salad Sandwich I've ever had...legit! I loved the amount of Shrimp they put on the sandwich, the way the Shrimp were fresh, and the seafood seasoning they put on it was a very nice touch. I give the sandwich a 9.5 out of 10. The Creamed Spinach came soaked in Amaretto with Provolone Cheese melted on top (sorry I didn't get a picture), and I love Amaretto as a drink. So, I had to try this as a side. It was overall good. Not as creamy as I thought it would be, a bit watered down, but the Amaretto did indeed give it something different and unique to it that I liked. I give their Spinach a 7.5 out of 10. The manager (I'm assuming that who he was) was very friendly and came to check out everyone's tables to make sure everyone was enjoying their food and experience. I really appreciated that. 10/10 for the customer service from our server and the manager. I definitely will be back, hopefully soon, to try their other menu items.

Since we were already there and hungry, we decided to stick around and order from the regular menu and honestly, it worked out just fine. The space used to be San Sushi before the owner retired, and the interior layout is pretty much the same. It is simple and perfectly serviceable for small to medium groups. When we visited, we were actually the only occupied table, which made for a quiet and relaxed lunch. Since there was no official buffet, we decided to make our own by ordering a half dozen dishes to share. We went with a variety of curries, multiple biryanis, butter chicken, samosas, and plenty of naan for the table. Everything came out at a great pace and the service was very friendly and efficient throughout. The curries were the highlight for me. Some were dialed up with extra heat for the spice lovers at the table, while others were milder, but all of them were packed with flavor and tasted fresh. The biryanis were also excellent, with generous portions of both lamb and chicken. No skimping on the protein here. Pricing was reasonable, and when we split the bill it came out to about what each of us would typically spend at an Indian lunch buffet anyway. Overall, even without the buffet option, Hyderabad Stories is a great Indian food choice in the area and definitely worth checking out if you are craving flavorful curries and solid biryani.

    We got to check out this spot located in the middle of the business building this past weekend. To…read morebe honest, the name did not give off the Indian restaurant vibe and right underneath in a smaller font it says Indian cuisine. If my husband did not find this spot, I don't think I would've noticed it. That said, I am very happy he did!! The restaurant did stop their buffet as the owner said it was not a hit amongst the local customers. After ordering all we did though, we kind of made it our own buffet and the price was very reasonable! Each person averaged about $30 . The biryani was so good and the rice was tender! The Apollo 65 fish appetizer was also delicious!! Very tender pieces of fish paired with a spicy coating was so flavorful! The egg noodle dish was also a table favorite! Honestly, you just can't go wrong here! My friend also wanted a spicy sauce and the wonders wife made a save that looked scary but soooo delicious!!
