I've lived less than a mile from the Sly Horse for 28 years and because of my experiences there can count the number of times I've been to the restaurant on one hand, each time hoping it will shine. The staff is nice enough, but overwhelmed and handling way too much to be attentive to detail (e.g. waiting tables AND... More

The ambience is so comfortable, the fireplace, the booths, the wood floors and furnishings, the food was excellent and service superb! The 4 of us each had a different entree and appetizer, shared each one and were delighted with every bite! We will go back soon!

The Sly Horse is tucked away in the Crofton neighborhood. The interior takes you back to colonial times with a design patterned after Raleigh Tavern in Williamsburg, VA. It has an excellent menu and a separate selection of specials on the "Horse Sheet". We enjoyed dinner with our daughter enjoying seafood, lamb, fantastic crab soup, and bread pudding to die... More

A fantastic restaurant for business meetings, family affairs or casual dining. I have had family meals and business dinners many times and the food is always first rate, the service spectacular and the atmosphere appealing. The patio is the best outdoor seating in the area! The barbeque shrimp appetizer is the best I've ever tried in the MD-DC area and... More

I cannot imagine how anyone would ever give this restaurant anything but a 5 star glowing review. The food is absolutely fabulous and the service first class. The ambiance and decor is incredible, with a rustic "Old Tavern" charm. The Cosmos are delicious and they have an exceptional wine menu to please all palates. The barbecue shrimp appetizer with cucumber... More

Check out the new music on Friday nights!! Great Musician. Best food in Crofton. Can't believe any negative comments. Everyone has bad nights. Flatbread is to die for! Apparently new on the menu. Also great crab dip, crab balls and barbecued shrimp. Great inexpensive night out for folks that want to chill!!

My husband and I live in the neighborhood and thought we would go in for the ambiance. We were told that the kitchen was closed because the stove was not working properly. We decided to stay and ordered drinks anyway. Another couple which seemed to be regulars came in and was told that the kitchen was closed for the same... More
