Best Lunch Restaurants in Catonsville

A hidden gem that deserves your attention! Last evening, I joined friends for a birthday celebration at The Beaumont, and I'm still dreaming about the experience. Upon arrival, the staff immediately made us feel welcome, seating our party without delay – a refreshing start that set the tone for the evening. The ambiance struck that perfect balance between elegant and comfortable, ideal for marking a special occasion. The cocktail program here deserves special recognition. I opted for their Smoked Old Fashioned, a masterful creation where the smoky aroma enhanced rather than overwhelmed the rich bourbon notes. The presentation added a touch of drama that delighted everyone at the table. For starters, the Brie Toast emerged as an unexpected highlight. Far from your standard cheese appetizer, this featured perfectly melted Brie atop artisanal bread with subtle sweet and savory elements that complemented the cheese's creaminess. The main event, however, was the Short Rib. Tender doesn't begin to describe how this meat yielded to the fork – it practically dissolved with each bite. The chef clearly understands the patience required for properly braising this cut, resulting in deep, complex flavors that had me contemplating licking the plate clean (I refrained, but barely). If you haven't yet discovered The Beaumont, consider this your sign to make a reservation immediately. Simply put: kiss the chef – they've earned it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Manor Hill Tavern always provides a great and very friendly service, and the food is fantastic. It is one of the family favorite restaurants!

Food was great. Little delay with the service. Wished Galaxy would have been available for purchase.

Kelsey’s is a solid dining experience. The dining room is warm, inviting, and relatively quiet. Their menu includes numerous options. We had the Dubliner Burger and the corned beef sandwich. Each were tasty. I will say that the service was terrific. We were seated promptly and our waitress was pleasant, knowledgeable, and attentive.

Atwater's always has good, fresh food, well-prepared. Their special events and brunch services are always well put together, with competent and friendly service staff. Almost everything is scratch-made (either on location or from their production kitchen a few miles away) and predominantly local, so prices can reflect that.
