    Excellently prepared food with a Maryland flavor, plenty of choice from both sea and land. Wine list is comprehensive and reasonably priced. Dessert is always a highlight, the house made Candy Bar is a favorite.

    I was very impressed by the spin they put on the traditional brunch items. Loved the menu overall. Waitress was just wonderful and knowledgeable. The dessert menu was right out of my “Great British Baking Show” dreams. Oysters were delicious. We will be going back there wasn’t enough time or room in my stomach to try everything I wanted.

    I went to Bygone for my birthday and I loved it. I will definitely be back. I had the chicken breast, mac and cheese, puree mash potatoes, & the Bygone Buck for a drink ( Moscow mule ). Everything was 10/10 and our waiter was amazing. His drink and menu recommendations were spot on. I believe his name was KC ( not 100% sure ). The restaurant is also BEAUTIFUL and amazing for pictures. I will be back for sure ❤️.
