Old Line Kitchen & Wine Bar

Absolutely loved my experience at Old Line Kitchen and Wine Bar! From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere made me feel right at home. The host was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great suggestions that didn't disappoint.For lunch, I started with the crab soup--rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Then I moved on to the steak frites, which were perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious.The chocolate smith island cake was so good and rich. Perfect ending to the meal. A special shoutout to our server, Jacob, who was attentive, personable, and ensured everything was spot-on.This place is a gem, and I can't wait to return. It's clear they're off to an amazing start! Five stars all the way.

Our first time dining at this new Columbia spot, we were excited to see what the team has been cooking up. Let's talk ambiance. The bar is front and center upon entering, with the dining room tucked behind the front of house desk. The dining area is airy and open, with tall ceilings and prominent main light feature. It still seems to be finding its character--it was both striving for the elevated feel while being a bit new and sterile. I imagine will come with time!Approaching the drink menu, I was impressed by the extensive single glass and draft wine options, all very reasonably priced. The house cocktail list leaves a little to be desired but again, perhaps with time will gain more depth. The craft beer menu could also do with a few more additions--we're spoiled for exceptional brews in this region, so would be nice to see some of those featured (Sapwood, Crooked Crab, Black Flag to name a few).We started with the cheese board, which was overall middle of the road. The everything crackers were a mismatch paired with mellower cheeses, and the seasonal jam (fig?) was a bit off-putting flavor wise. The crab soup got a solid thumbs up from the table though.As for main dishes, as the vegetarian at the table, I ordered the Chickpea Cake. I must admit, the platting was not the most appetizing in appearance, giving me some real cafeteria vibes. The curried veloute is a tough color to get past. The chickpea cake itself was the best bit on the plate. Thick, moist and flavorful. The orzo was undercooked, as well as the seasonal veggies which were sparse in volume. The side salad had no dressing to be found, so was incredibly dry.The burger was well-received by two diners at the table, though one did need to be sent back initially for improper additions. The Delmonico Ribeye was also enjoyed, though the portion of meat seemed a bit underwhelming for the price point.Overall, a nice but largely forgettable dining experience. We may wait some time before thinking about returning, as it's clear that the team is still working out some kinks and finding its personality.

We gave waited for another restaurant at the former Aida Wine bar for sometime and decided to give it a try. The interior changes to the bar area I have mixed feelings on. I miss the high tops that provided the casual feeling of a bar. The larger bar is great and allows more people the casual experience that's lost. The service at the bar was a little slow. We spent a lot of time waiting even though it was later in the evening slower. The wine and cocktail menus is varied with many options. The menu is good with limited options. This upside if the food. The whipped ricotta and toast was delicious. For dinner the braised short rib was fall off the bone and very flavorful. All in all a good experience and we'll definitely return in the near future. It's a unique experience for Howard County

This place has a cute solid brunch. It is slightly hard to find as it is on a side street tucked away near corporate offices. Once you're there you won't be disappointed. The service was good and the food was delicious and reasonably priced! The breakfast potatoes are fantastic. I'll def be back :)

Wow! When you walk into Old Line the ambience and decor...stunning! Long way away from its previous Aida's bistro look and feel. Service was great! We had a reservation for 2 for a birthday and were seated right away. This place has only been open 3 weeks, so still pretty new. But service seemed seamless! The menu seems to be upscale southern flair. You can build your own charcuterie as an appetizer which seems like a nice touch! We started with salad and bread. One ordered the special which was a lobster dish and I ordered the braised short rib. Neither of us had any complaints! The bartender was our server and the manager checked in on us an adequate number of times without it being overbearing. I'll definitely be back! Great addition to Howard County restaurants!

Tucked away in the business area, this gem is like a warm hug. So classy and intimate, yet not too stuffy or pretentious. Food was incredible, drink was delicious and service was just right. I met some friends for happy hour but I'll be back again soon.

New clean restaurant tucked away in an office building field. Beautiful decor and kind servers. We never had to wait for water or tea refills. We ordered a cream of crab soup and a calamari for starters. Both were delicious. The calamari had an amazing batter, light but crunchy. I had the braised short rib and my husband had a burger with fries. I had a hot tea for a beverage. Great experience! We can't wait to come back!

I just popped in for some wine. This place was so beautiful with an impressive menu. I tried the whipped ricotta! I sat at the bar and the bartender was so kind.

Visited Old Line today for brunch with a large group. This was our first time and the food did not disappoint. We probably sampled most of the small plate brunch options and everything was good. I also have to give a shout out to the staff for taking care of our large party. They were great. Highly recommend checking this place out. We'll be back for dinner sometime soon.

The overall ambiance was nice and the service was great. I had the mussels which had a strange potent flavor and then the risotto which was less than mediocre. Everything my table had was mediocre or less. The menu was fairly pricy for the quality. Would I go back ?? Nah
