    Walking into The Ruxton feels like stepping into a world of pure opulence. From the warm lighting to the tasteful décor, everything about the atmosphere left me in awe. I also appreciated the music selection, which was refreshingly diverse—and I loved the unexpected twist of hearing some Christian rap in the playlist. Our server, Jordyn, elevated the experience with excellent service and thoughtful recommendations. The Wagyu steak, paired with its rich sauce, was simply outstanding, and the Wagyu sliders did not disappoint either. One of the highlights was the salad, featuring bacon so flavorful it might be the best I’ve ever had. The lobster mac and cheese was solid—maybe not quite at the level of my grandmother’s Southern-style recipe, but still satisfying in its own right. Overall, everything—from the ambiance to the attentive service—made for a wonderful lunch date. If you’re looking for a memorable dining experience with top-quality dishes and a welcoming vibe, The Ruxton should be at the top of your list.

    Food was good. Atmosphere was great. I went in at 10 pm. I made sure to arrive early with it being my first time there so I could find parking ECT. Ironically I found parking in the same building in the parking garage. Use the QR code on one of the pillers to pay for your parking. Take the elevator to the lobby then you'll see where to go to get to the bygone. Was glad I arrived early because I wasn't told the kitchen closed at 10. But even though I arrived 30minutes early I was seated immediately and given excellent service. My waitress was amazing. She went above and beyond to make sure our needs were taken care of. We had a great fine dining experience just be sure to follow the dress code on there website jacket is not necessary just make sure you have a collared shirt. And ladies a nice casual dress or gown is fine. I know my guest was nervous on what she should wear. Will definitely be back. A great place to take someone you care about fellas. Hope my review answered some questions for any first timers looking to go.

    We brought my elderly mother for a celebration lunch and everyone on the staff was just so lovely to her. The food was incredible, the portions were generous, my husband said his steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned and he is very hard to please! We will definitely be back!

    Valentine dinner, food was great, wine pairings were extremely well matched. Our server was personable and fun to interact with. Entree was a small steak and a crab cake, no one can beat John Shields when it comes to crabs. Even the sides of roast fingerling potatoes and green beans were outstanding. All in all, an extremely pleasant evening,

    Great Italian restaurant - the best in Baltimore! I took my wife here for our anniversary. I had the Fettuccine Bolognese and my wife had the Fettuccine Toscana...both were top notch dishes and the homemade pasta makes all the difference. Service was great too. Ristorante fantastico!
