Set in Baltimore County’s horse country, The Oregon Grille may seem clubby at times and for insiders only, but pay no attention; the restaurant can always be counted on for great hunks of meat like a 24-ounce bone-in rib-eye steak and other dishes, like the charred chimichurri swordfish. The plush booths and dark mahogany walls offer “Mad Men”-style sophistication, while the shaded outdoor patio is a leafy oasis. (Baltimore Sun Best Restaurants 2017)
