Cafe de Paris

Cafe de Paris, Columbia
Owner Erik Rochard is one of the friendliest hosts you'll find, and he offers a range of choices at the cafe. It's become two restaurants in one, with a Crepe Cafe adding a low cost alternative to the main dining room for lunch or dinner. In the dining room there's a three-course "Formule" menu or extensive a la carte list of French specialties. The weekend brunch is a nice treat, too.

Cafe de Paris makes our list of Howard County's Best Restaurants.

Update: Cafe de Paris makes our list for Best Steak in Howard County.

Tersiguel's

Our consistent choice for Mother's Day and other special occasions, it's a delight to have this gem on Main Street.  Fernand and Odette Tersiguel have a history as restaurateurs in Ellicott City going back more than 30 years.  They've given way to their son and chef Michel, but this classic hasn't missed a beat.  Fine French country cooking with fresh ingredients, many from their own farm, and always save room for dessert.
