Visit one, I had wine and appetizers with a friend. The calamari was delicious and HH wine was satisfactory as was our waiter. First negative was that I also ordered dessert which was brought to go even though I didnt ask for it to be. Visit two, we specifically went here for dinner after seeing the taco special posted on facebook. The food I got looked absolutely nothing like the picture and contained some kind of pureed avocado instead of the guacamole I was promised in the description. But worst of all my food was room temperature. However, at this point it was clear our waitress did not care about us. She didnt bring us bread and only asked how things were out of a requirement to do so. She then brought us the check without even asking if we wanted dessert. But worst of all, it has now become clear that they delete all negative comments on social media and block people who dare to mention their negative experiences. Clearly they are interested in satisfied customers, certainly not locals who could have been regular visitors.

Horrible service! Instead of reaching out for me to give them another chance, they deleted my negative feedback and blocked me from Facebook. Dont give them your business because their management obviously doesnt care about your experience. I went on a busy Saturday night for dinner with my wife. I had the ribs, which came with slaw and roasted potatoes. The ribs and slaw were both excellent, but the larger potato pieces werent fully cooked in the center. My wife had the tacos, which looked nothing like their promo pics on Facebook and was cold. Service was worse than Id expect from a Dennys. Our whole meal felt rushed...the waitress did not offer us bread or any extra napkins/wet naps for the ribs, and brought the check without asking if we wanted dessert. We were literally out the door 40-min after arriving on a busy Saturday night. We live 1 mile away and love craft beer, but CPG does not want our business. Save yourself the trouble and visit any other local restaurant that actually wants to make customers happy.

First of all, were return customers of the Centre Park Grill. Weve enjoyed several amazing meals in the past. However, tonights dinner experience was disappointing. We each ordered steak salad. Simple, right? Evidently not! While the meat was cooked to the proper doneness, it was tough and chewy. The greens were literally floating in a pool of balsamic vinegar. The flood of vinegar totally masked the taste of everything else. We swam through this course and were prepared to reward our fortitude with a warm coffee drink for dessert. However, the bartender was unwilling or unable to make a simple Irish Coffee. Seriously!?! Dont ALL bartenders have that skill? We paid our bill and left. The Centre Park Grill is no longer on our short list of Howard County restaurants to frequent, and were sad about that.

Delicious food in a convivial atmosphere. Signature cocktails are inventive, with the CPG Cosmo (my go-to usual) a sweeter version of the standard; nonetheless, tonight was perfect for a Frontier Old Fashioned, kicked up a notch by the Ancho Chili liqueur. The Maryland crab soup was replaced tonight with a smooth and creamy butternut squash soup - so good! The halibut entree was perfectly prepared, with delicious crispy fingerling potatoes and grilled asparagus done just right - topped with lightly sautéed red onions and what must be the last of the seasons wonderful cherry tomatoes. A great meal. Service is always attentive and cheerful. My only complaint is that the bar is part of the restaurant, so the ambient noise of sporting events cannot be avoided.

I love their bread. Thats a weird thing to say but true. They also usually have a pretty good tap list, but the prices are very high off happy hour. Luckily happy hour isnt limited to the bar, which helps. The food is pretty good, not the most amazing in the world, and they have the too-much-salt disease most restaurants seem to have. I had the steak, my wife had the salmon. Both were good, but the steak couldve been cooked a bit less for medium. So if you like medium, maybe ask for medium-rare?

Service was slow, and several of our orders were delivered to the wrong table. The kitchen tried to cover up the fact that they delivered food to the wrong table by bringing it back into the kitchen, waiting a minute, then trying to serve it to us as if it was fresh. We watched the whole thing happen in disbelief. They also got multiple orders wrong. Also, if youre going for brunch, avoid the omelettes; the portion sizes are very small!

I bet they know me

These people have never heard of flavor. Only 1/6 at my table fully finished their plates. The menu seemed pricey for what they werent delivering. I tasted 0 chipotle on my burger, my dad felt the crab in his pasta was from a can, this just was a complete let down. You know I place is horrible if they dont even know to put salt on your fries!!!!

The happy hour of half priced drafts is well worth the visit. The bartender, Brady was very helpful and attentive. The Steak in the grass sandwich was too messy to consume in front of a blind date, but perfect for someone in a long-term relationship. I would not pay for the draft beers accept for happy hour.

Great food and service. We loved the wings, salad, ribs and salmon. We came based on a friends recommendation and are very glad we did. Thursday night was drink specials night and it made the excellent drinks very affordable. Lot of great options in this area and we are adding this place to our list.

Great atmosphere, and the food is delicious. The appetizers are the right size for a small plates snack; and you get a lot of bang for your buck when it comes to the sandwiches & entrees. Its becoming one of my goto places for dinner with the family or drinks with friends.

Big portions, classic american dishes, good lunch specials and happy hour deals. Ill be coming back here to try more of the menu. The quality of the food varies a lot from dish to dish, based on the experience of the group I came with. Dont let them overcook your burger!

Great spot, food is excellent and service is even better. Sat at a table in the bar with Brady as our bartender / server. Super nice guy, knowledgeable about the menu and bar items. Constantly checked on us for food and drinks.

Very disappointing meal. The crab cake was dry with a lot of filler. The Rueben was so fatty it was inedible. Had to send back 2 separate dishes. Im giving it a 2 because it does have nice ambiance and the drinks were good.

4 adults and 4 kids 9,3,2 and 1 month old. It was Friday nite and 8:30p.m. and they refused to seat us. I guess my son in law should have worn his military uniform. They were not busy. So we went to Timbuktu restaurant.

Looking for a bourbon? This is a great place to find a great Bourbon, Scotch, or Whiskey. Bartender knows his stuff. The Bourbon flights help...just plan for a taxi/Uber after you are done. Love the ambiance too.

I didnt enjoy any of the food! Good staff and a nice atmosphere but i will NOT be coming here again! I ordered the crab dip as an appetizer, and although it looked great, the dip tasted like crab and cream cheese
