Restaurants near Paper Mill Village Shopping Center

Everything was amazing from drinks to appetizers to main course to dessert

My wife and I had a tremendous meal at Oregon Grille. It was last minute and I was only able to get seating in the galley area next to the street. Our server was excellent, and helped my wife on her drink selection. The food was outstanding, seafood tower, Wagyu Tomahawk steak for 2 was delicious and prepared perfectly. It’s the 1st time my wife did not add salt or use a steak sauce. While pricey, it was well worth it and we shall return.

Chicken in a Pot very delicious. Do buffalo wings for an appetizer if you’re into a little spice.

Great things stay great - as do great restaurants. Last year we visited Bluestone on V-Day and guess what? We did again this year! Many comments I made last year in my Bluestone review remain equally valid: 1. Grace under pressure - Restaurants can display managerial weaknesses on Valentine's Day. Even good and great restaurants, which can get crushed by numbers of holiday celebrants. V-Day may be one of the busiest nights of the year for upscale restaurants. However, the best of the best shine through under the pressure. So was the case with Bluestone on V-Day 2025. Management acumen made the restaurant not seem overly crowded or too bustling but clearly every seat was filled. Bluestone manages its reservations and wait-list with aplomb. 2. Food was wonderful per its lofty standards - We expect greatness at Bluestone and it delivered. Again. The Crisfield Stew never disappoints. Big hunks of fresh seafood in a very tasty broth - like bouillabaisse crossed with Maryland Crab Soup...." I had the highly excellent crabcake-stuffed-flounder, served on a bed of very tasty seasoned rice - sort of a risotto. We devoured the super-hot, fresh rolls while enjoying a couple of perfect cocktails featuring blackberries. Our newish waitress Lauren was rock solid (Kelsey last year probably cannot be topped). All told we dropped $143 but Bluestone is worth every penny. . So what's stopping you? Go to Bluestone.

With the exception of the chargrilled oysters and the "bearnaise" sauce, our meals (Filet Mignon and Prime Rib) were excellent. What standed out as Exceptional was the service.....our server, Carly (?) and our Assistant Manager (?) Alex exemplified what great customer service should be.....very impressive! We will certainly be back!
