★★★★★ 5.0 Saundra Boulware · Feb 2026

The food was delicious! Its been at least 10 years since I have dined here and it still did not disappoint. Actually, I first dined in in the 1980s with after church dinner and an occasional brunch. I was pleasantly surprised and glad that the deliciousness needle was still high!😋 And Yes, I do recommend this restaurant for brunch, dinner, lunch, solo dining, or any celebration. I attended my niece's 60th Birthday Celebration (had no idea they had a private party room). I loved it and will be back--this time I will not wait not too long. So, I ordered the calamari for my starters and the crab cake for dinner 😋😋😋! Oh My God, I was pigging😁😋. I just could not stop eating. Here are pics of the menu, my appetizer, my crab cake dinner (no filler--in case youare wondering), and a bonus pic of my

I just so happened to be in Bowie that day, when I wanted something to eat. I was open to trying a new restaurant and I saw this one! I stopped in and the wait staff was so very friendly, and patient with all of my food related questions. I had the rainbow trout, fried green tomatoes, half and half, and an apple tart-like dessert with 1 scoop of ice cream (not pictured because I devoured it as soon as it hit the table). The only thing I will say is that if you are not a fan of goat cheese, ask them to omit it from the fried green tomatoes. Other than that the food was phenomenal. The other great thing about this place is that it is connected to a liquor store. It is one of the biggest liquor stores I have seen. The prices are pretty reasonable in my opinion. Go see for yourself!

Haven't been here in over 20 years. The fried chicken and green beans were pretty tasty. The top of the macaroni and cheese was good but the bottom not the same. Cozy atmosphere, horse racing theme and good service, friendly and attentive. Would recommend you try it out.

Some of the best real cooking around!🤩 Perfectly cooked broiled salmon filet w fresh herbal seasoned cooked spinach over rice. 😋Several rooms. Highly recommend the private booth room if you wish to hear each other, lest your lunch ends up in open seating room where conversation was squashed by a gruff man giving a loud sales pitch with video playing to couple all seated next to us! Good real American fare!

Brought a group here for brunch and was not disappointed! The food was great and they were very accommodating to those with allergies.
