Best Historic Restaurants in Burtonsville

Food was delicious. Our server was very friendly and accommodating. Restaurant was cozy and inviting.

I was surprised there weren’t more holiday decorations, it felt a bit institutional. We ordered a large selection of starters. The drunken shrimp and smoked salmon stack were the best, the short rib bites and pork roll weren’t too good, very chewy. Everything was a bit over salted. Service was good, timely, very responsive.

Excellent location for a celebration. Best drinks around - though the beer menu could be expanded! Adequate selection of wines… but that’s all drinks! You go there for the FOOD… and GOOD it is. Not high brow but a use of spices that is tantalizing without tongue-numbing as some places. The best evidence is the subtle smoke flavor of the Baba Ganousch…the BEST! Only fault was we were not forewarned of the 3% surcharge on using credit; had we known we would have brought cash… next time, for sure. ;-)

The entire experience was fantastic. I had emailed the restaurant to advocate that a dish they used to have on their menu be considered for a return, and the chef emailed me back that they would make it for me at our next visit, which we already had a reservation for. They must have put a note on our reservation, because our server knew all about it before we said anything at all. The Manager stopped by to talk about it too. I can’t think of any other restaurant I’ve been to that has gone that far above and beyond for the average customer. The food was wonderful, and we adore our server to the point that we ask for her every time we go.
