    I was behind schedule, but I called them, and they accommodated us by pushing back the reservation by 30 minutes without any complaint. I was amazed, and immediately upon arrival, they gave us a table, and the staff took good care of us from the time we arrived until we left. The food was good, and the service was amazing. Overall, I was satisfied on my first visit.

    Excellent service. A slight problem with my cocktail was immediately rectified by Janine, who remains awesome. The fish entree was delicious and the entire meal was very well done. My best Iron Bridge experience in a long time.

    Five Stars – Exceptional Experience at Smashing Grapes, Columbia MD! I had a truly wonderful experience at Smashing Grapes in Columbia! Our waiter was absolutely amazing—hands down one of the best I’ve ever had. He was incredibly attentive, engaging, funny, and very knowledgeable about the menu. His service really elevated our entire dining experience. My friends and I celebrate our annual birthdays together, and we usually try different places for brunch, lunch, or dinner. Smashing Grapes has definitely become a favorite—it was by far one of the best restaurants we've been to. The service, the food, and the ambiance were all exquisite. Highly recommend for any special occasion or just a quality night out. Five stars all the way! loved!
