Catonsville Gourmet

Very welcoming atmosphere, great service. The food was fantastic. Definitely my favorite Frederick Road restaurant. My friends and I go out to lunch once a month and order to share all we want to taste . Starting with appetizer, meal then desserts. Everything was perfect and the best part was being greeted by the owner while we were enjoying our visit. ( I’m assuming owner by how pleased she was due to our great experience)

Chloe was very nice! Enjoyed the French onion soup, fried green tomatoes with lump crab meat. Blackened rockfish Chesapeake style was cooked perfectly. Calamari was delicious! Busy place ..,,fun time!

This about my 4th or 5th visit. I don’t know if they had a change in chef, past visits were great, but today has caused me not to return. Ordered the Smoke House Chicken with sweet potato fries. Fries way over cooked don’t know why they even left the kitchen that way waitress should have caught that especially after we saw another table’s fries come out fresh and beautiful that she served. Then she agree yes they are a little over cooked. Then sandwich condiments, tomato’s lettuce etc; were not proportion for the sandwich which made it very sloppy. Even the Asian chicken wings were tough. My friend ordered the Nantucket Pasta, just bland needed plenty of black pepper and some chili flakes then it was edible. They did compensate by removing the chicken sandwich and fries off the check and

We randomly decided to check this restaurant out while in the area. My husband wanted some oysters and the plan was to get just that. Ended up getting two different types of oysters, which he loved. Maryland crab soup, so yum! I got the tuna melt that came with a pickle and their homemade kettle chips enjoyed that very much. Also ordered the Talbot street toast, we both agreed everything was great and will be back! Glad we stumbled upon this restaurant.

This is easily one of the best meals ive had in ages, and i am EVIL when it fomes to reviews usually. So tasty its a shame this place is so far from my hometown or id be here minimum once a month for the rest of my life. I got the crab bisque and and off the waiters rec I got the blackened halibut with scampi sauce. I was dang near licking my plate clean.
