Best restaurants near me in Sparks, MD

A nice place for a Sunday brunch. The restaurant was nicely decorated for the holidays. My husband enjoyed his omelette and the salmon blt was very tasty. One of our go to places. Especially nice in warmer weather when we can sit on the patio.

We had the most excellent dinner last night at The Valley Inn. We got a res on Opentable and sat in a lovely area near the outdoor bar. We had kids with us, so the relaxed seating was very appreciated. From service to food to atmosphere, everything was top notch. We are pescatarian and there were many options. We had the fried green tomatoes, Caesar salad and shrimp scampi, and my picky 7 year old had pasta from the kids menu (shells) which were truly delicious. I feel like they are doing something really special with the menu or in the kitchen because both pastas were top 5 best ever in my culinary history. We didn’t stay for dessert but wine and cocktails were excellent with plenty of non alcoholic options. Our server, Aidan was amazing and we really need to shout out chef Manny for such a wonderful experience. We will be back!!

My wife and I treated a long-time friend who was in Maryland for Christmas. All of us thought the food was excellent. The BBQ Baby Back Rib serving size was ENORMOUS. I took half of them home for another meal. My wife's single crab cake dinner and my friend's Atlantic salmon dinner were just the right size. Our server, Mary, was a gem: friendly and efficient. The only problem we had was our entrees were served - NOT by Mary - well before my wife and I had finished our Soup and Salad, respectively. A closer attention to timing will be appropriate.

Three of us had the double crab cake platter- it was fantastic. I highly recommend the crab cakes. I also had key lime pie for dessert - the best I’ve ever had. Service was excellent. Thanks Bluestone - we couldn’t have asked for any better!

Brittany our waitress made a great restaurant, an over the top experience! She was very sociable, had great suggestions on the menu & just made the dinner a great night. We never waited for anything, she was on top of everything. She made a “10” restaurant a “20”! All of our food was perfectly cooked. The drinks were great. Her wine suggestion was incredible! Thank you
