Grapevine College Station, TX
What a FUN place to eat. It has a great atmosphere, and an eclectic menu of fun food at very reasonable prices. I've never been dissapointed in the food or the restaurant. And in a college town, that's a ringing endorsement. It's casual, not fine dining. For fun, not formal occasions.
Wings N' More College Station, TX
This is the sister location to the original Wings 'n Things across from the Texas A&M Camups. It is accessible from Bypass 6 on S> Texas Avenue. It too, is well worth the visit. The food menu is not stunning, but it is terriffic. All the items are well prepared all the time. The staff is far better than most college town eateries, friendly, quick and helpful. and simply put, the wings are the very best Buffalo wings I've had in the US. You need to try this place, or one of the several other locations in Texas.
Golden Corral College Station, Texas
Lots of food. Cheap. Pretty good too. Served on buffett style islands. If you have a diverse or hungry group, this place will work. Loads of different foods and tastes for even picky eaters to get their fill. Good rolls and breads, and some tasty deserts too.
Tom's Barbecue & Steak House Bryan, TX
For years a staple of the College Station dining scene. Still going strong. Food served on butcher paper. Good BBQ and the rest of the menu is good too. Fun, friendly and not too expensive. Not too crowded either. Overall, a good place for a good time.
Chicken Oil Co Bryan, TX
Real good burgers, nice cold beer, games and fun in a rustic atmosphere. Easy to get to and nice to eat at. Food is always good and inexpensive. Friendly place, well worth a stop.
Fat Burger College Station, TX
Good, greasy, real-beef burgers. Fudruckers without the hype and the flashy locations. Been around a long time. If you're tired of overcooked, flash fried, too-thin burgers, and want a treat, try a real burger again.
Cacao Lane Restaurant Ellicott City, MD
An excellent place to eat a nice dinner in old Ellicott City. Pricey, but great atmosphere and location. Food is very good. Service is not consistant. Dinner menu is predictably larger and costlier. A nice lunch location also for dining.
Golden Sports Bar and Grill Ellicott City, MD
This is a SPORTS BAR, not a fine restaurant. If that's what you want, this is a good one. Good food, good service, billiards, tvs, the works. They also host a lot of live music at very reasonable cover charges. A nice place, out of the way in the Triangle shopping center.
Wok 175 Columbia, MD
They have improved a lot in the past 12-15 months. It is now consistantly good food, and very friendly service. It has all the standards, and if a repeat customer, they will cater the food to your needs/desires. For carry out in Columbia, one of the best.
Trattoria E Pizzeria Columbia, MD
Above average for a local Italian pizza based place. It is not a nice restaurant, but they have a large eat-in table area for lunch and early dinner eaters. The food is well priced and pretty good. If you want an informal, non-fast food lunch, this is a good alternative. In the shopping center at Guilford and Route 1, behind Jiffy Lube.
Ledo Pizza Columbia, MD
Typical of all the LEDO pizzas as far as food. Predictable. Nice interior. Bad access and parking, typical of Columbia. ALWAYS busy at lunch, try to avoid at peak times.
Bertucci's Brick Oven Pizzeria Columbia, MD
Who knew they would work the kinks out and make it in restaurant loaded Columbia! When they opened, they had problems. But now the wait staff is much better, and the food is consistantly good. They have made art out of pizza. There is an entire menu of non-pizza as well. Pizzas are made in a brick oven with wood fire. It really makes it unique. This is a nice place without a warehouse feel on the interior. Good for business lunch or personal lunch. Busy at lucnh however, so eat early or late. It's better now, and here for the long haul, so try it!
Taste Of Asia Columbia, MD
for the mall, it is acceptable. If you paid these prices and got this food out at a restaurant, you'd be displeased. But if you want asian, and everyone else wants pizza and sandwiches, then it works great. Fast and friendly, food is OK.
Lone Star Barbeque Columbia, MD
It is a chain steakhouse. The steaks are better than the barbeque. If you love steak, eat elsewhere, if you like it, this place is great. It has a bar with peanuts you open and toss the shells on the floor. The restaurant is nice inside and the menu good. Service is hit and miss, as much of Columbia is. Look, this is NOT King's Contrivance Inn, Clyde's or even Outback. But if you want close and fun meat, it works. Behind Apple Ford off McGaw Road.
Greek Delite Columbia, MD
Nice place. Looks like the mall, but if you like the greek menu, you won't be disappointed. Love the gyro's!
Bennigan's Columbia, MD
If you are at the water in Columbia, eat elsewhere. This is average at best. If you wantthis type of menu and pub, go to Fridays. It's a Bennigans, but this one is not nearly up to snuff. Always noisy, crowded, and usually poor and slow service. There are three restaurants and two bars less than 1000 feet away that are FAR superior. And ever since they stopped offering burgers below medium-well, the best menu item is gone. Do yourself a favor, try another place.
Macaroni Grill Columbia, MD
For a chain, this one is a cut above. Fun, friendly, and very good food. The entire time is a good experience, provided you aren't waiting in line for more than a few minutes. Eat the pasta, it's what they do best. The menu is typical pasta/Italian. This is a nice step up from Olive Garden, and better than the eat-in pizza italian places all around Columbia. So unless you head to Elkridge to Pecararro's ...... TRY IT, YOU'LL LIKE IT!
Hard Times Cafe Columbia, MD
It is a chain (isn't everything these days?). That said, it's nice. A varied menu of the Tex and the Mex, with a little plain old American thrown in. The prices are fair, the interior nice. The serivice (like a lot of Columbia places) is it or miss. The shopping center exterior is misleading, it's better than that. Have not used the bar, only the restaurant.
Red Lobster Columbia, MD
You know the chain, this one is no exception. The menu and food is predictably good here. the thing about this Red Lobster is the wait. If you try to come for dinner, be prepared to wiat if you are not early or late. there is ALWAYS a large wait here, which really drags the experience down. It is a great place for a business lunch however. And keep an eye out for coupons, it make this a great deal.

For years a staple of the College Station dining scene. Still going strong. Food served on butcher paper. Good BBQ and the rest of the menu is good too. Fun, friendly and not too expensive. Not too crowded either. Overall, a good place for a good time.
