The Elkridge Furnace Inn

"Ok... First of All they granted my request and Tori brought out the flowers I dropped off earlier with our Appetizers and they put them in a lovely vase! She was very knowledgeable about the menu and history of the place and Tony her assistant was on point with whatever drinks and assistance we needed. Secondly the food... Just Oh my goodness! I'm a steak lover and that 22oz ribeye was so tender and Huge I had enough to share it with my Father In Law last night plus have leftovers this morning! Lastly the ambiance was great, this was our first time there but it most certainly won't be our last! We also had drinks and desserts, we loved it!"

"First visit to the Elkridge Furnace Inn for brunch with a few friends. The Inn is beautiful and we loved how historic it felt. There was a wedding going on as we left, and it would be a great option for a special event. We sat on the second level, and the decor is beautiful. Antique kind of vibe. Friendly service and staff, and it was perfect for a girls brunch. My out of town visitors loved the experience. We split the latke, scone, and herb bread. I ordered Eggs Florentine (with oysters) and dauphinoise potatoes. The hollandaise was one of the best I've had. Everything was delicious. Can't wait to come back."

"Visiting the area and came across this hidden gem. My friend and I had a lovely meal with wonderful service. The Inn has multiple rooms for dining and they seem to spread people out so feel like you have a little privacy. I had the grilled octopus salad which contained very fresh greens and quality octopus. I loved how they put the light dressing on four corners so you could use the amount you want with each bite. My friend had the braised rib cap where the meat just fell off the fork. The combination with the bolognese bucatint was exceptional. The cream of Baltimore soup was light and flavorful while I got the Classic French Onion which chef is known for. It was amazing! I was pretty full but had to try dessert. The Olive Oil cake was a perfect option. The cake was warm with crisp edges making every bite so good! I saved the fruit for breakfast and it was still fresh and flavorful the next morning. I know Baltimore has a lot of restaurants raving about their famous crab cakes, but between the ambiance, service and quality of food, this place is a must! They will definitely be on my list the next time I’m in the area."

"We absolutely loved this place! So glad we found this little gem. The atmosphere was amazing, the food was amazing, and the service was amazing. It's a bit pricey but we could tell that the chef was very thoughtful with the dishes that were served. For appetizers, we ordered the grilled peach bruschetta and the Ricotta Stuffed Squash Blossoms. For our main course, we ordered the Smoked Pork Chop and the Rack of Lamb. For dessert, we ordered the Strawberry Rhubarb Galette and the Peach Crisp. All the food was wonderful. About 5 mins after our main dishes arrived at our table, chef Dan came out to chat with us and make sure everything was up to par and we appreciated that. He also explained the dishes, some of the sides and answered any questions we had. The food we had was on the summer menu, the menu changes with each season so the food will probably be different the next time we visit. We are really looking forward to returning for one of the events that the restaurant hosts. Every couple of weeks the restaurant hosts multi-course dinner events of different themes and they all sound fantastic. We would love to attend all the events if we could afford to do so. For now, because of our limited budget, we'll just have to wait to visit again in the fall sometime to experience the fall menu. We'd give this place 6 stars if we could. Highly recommend!"

"Beautiful place, I could have my last meal here and die happy. The food is exquisite. Beautiful gardens. An old plantation style home converted to a restaurant. Each room sends your imagination on a journey as to the people that have come in and out.If 50 stars were possible i would rate this place 100 stars. The food had the look and taste of an exclusive place where the prices are too high to put on the menu and if you have to ask you can't afford but I was pleasantly surprised that the prices are very reasonable and I have spent a lot more for a whole lot less."
