Restaurants near Encinal Park

One of my favorite restaurants, Birk’s is like a home away from home. I came to this restaurant for lunch once a week for over 10 years. The service is perfect - timely and personal. I love this place.

Brought my 2 year old for a thanksgiving date because my husband was working. Service was outstanding and food was delicious! We ordered off the thanksgiving specials menu, I ordered the filet, my son got the Mac n cheese. The little appetizer plate they brought my son was a huge hit and he nibbled it throughout the meal. My salad was lovely and my filet was cooked a perfect medium. The sides were to share and they were huge, we brought so much food home. The potatoes were so good! The green beans were a favorite of my son. My son had an ice cream sundae and I had the carrot cake. The cake was so delicious, I had to take half home, it was very big. The sundae was two huge scoops of ice cream and a cookie with sprinkles, my son was so excited when it came out. When we arrived only a 1/4 or so of the tables were taken, when we left the place was looking fully booked but we didn’t feel rushed, service remained excellent throughout the entirety of the meal. The hostess was a big help, getting my son a little booster seat and removing the knives from his place setting. Overall, it was a great value and we had a lovely time. It’s a great place to bring children if they enjoy a restaurant experience and can sit and eat with you. My son loves trying new foods and he loved sitting by the kitchen.

Make a work function reservation for noon on a Wednesday before Thanksgiving. We were seated promptly. Service was good. Appetizer and entrees were delicious. I ordered the combo kebab. At first, I was worried that the chicken would be tough to eat but was surprised by the tender and flavorful meat! The mansef always has a nice presentation. So much food and we had to take doggie bags home.

Pretty chill for a Saturday night. Service took a minute initially but once our server finally showed up everything was good

Delicious food. Excellent service, but the music was awful and loud. We weren't able to talk with our friends. It's not a good place to talk and enjoy dinner at the same time
