- FNFoodieNewbieWashington, D.C. Area •4 reviews5.0Dined on Sep 15, 2023It looks like a hole in the wall in a strip mall. But looks aren't everything. It has an outdoor patio, which was busy the evening we visited. Upon entering, it was anything but a hole in the wall. Yes, you probably have the locals visiting for the bar, but there was seating in the back for groups and couples, along with the outdoor patio. We visited at the start of Howard County Restaurant Week in Fall 2023. The appetizer was large for being an appetizer. The entre was a good-sized portion and tasty. The dessert was filling. The staff was very attentive, with each member passing by to see if we needed anything or for refills of our drinks. The ambiance was friendly and welcoming. The waitress was charming and made us feel welcome. Having said all that, this little hole in the wall is a local gem. I will revisit this place when I am in the neighborhood. The food is definitely worth returning.More infoThe White Oak TavernPrice: Moderate• Farm-to-table• Ellicott City•4.5
