The Oregon Grille Description:
The horsy set of Baltimore County travels over hill and dale to dine at these tables. Yes, it's the luxe surroundings, all dark wood paneling and intimate booths with a live pianist jazzing around the standards. An incomparable collection of equine memorabilia, including vintage posters and colorful jockeys' silks, grace the walls. But it's also the kitchen, which turns out straightforward, but not necessarily straitlaced, renditions of regional favorites. On the grill side of the menu is a seared dry-aged sirloin strip that'll pluck the heartstrings of any beef lover. More contemporary are dishes like coriander-crusted Long Island duck with saffron couscous and pan-fried rockfish with crab hash and Delmarva salsa. The vegetarian dinner could convert you, at least for an evening. Inspired flavors and textures come together on a plate well-endowed with sweet potato polenta cakes, a mushroom-asparagus turnover, linguine with feta, olives and tomatoes, and a spicy cabbage and leek spring roll. A serviceable wine list complements the menu.
