Best Lunch Restaurants in Dundalk

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.

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!

Nice was a lil hectic on Valentine’s Day so service was not the best but still good

The all weather patio was not ideal. The first table had a heater pointed directly at it and it was too hot. We moved and table was tight but fine. Service, food and cocktails were all amazing!

We went between lunch and dinner and only a few other tables so it was pretty quiet. I’m from out of town and it was my second time- I loved it that much the first time. The lobster bisque is some of the best i’ve ever had! Seafood is so fresh and everytime I’m in town I will visit!
