Ellicott City has a unique, familiar charm for me. Its plaza — filled with family-style Asian restaurants — instantly takes me back to my high school days in Southern California when my friends and I would explore similar neighborhoods. Much like back then, these eateries don’t rely on tiny portions or fancy plating to impress: They win you over with fresh ingredients and comforting, homestyle flavors. After a satisfying meal, I might treat myself to a cup of bubble tea or wander through HMart to check out what’s new. That lingering sense of comfort and nostalgia always connects me to those carefree high school days, which is probably why I love spending weekends here. In short, food plays a central role in any visit, so here are my top restaurant recommendations — all within a 20–30 minute drive for Hopkins students.

The Michelin Guide may not visit Baltimore, but that doesn’t mean the city lacks Michelin-worthy restaurants. Baltimore’s dining scene has a quiet confidence, a mix of old-school seafood institutions and chef-driven spots that don’t need the extra fanfare. Some meals linger in memory long after the last bite, the kind that make you stop mid-conversation just to take it all in. If the Michelin Guide ever turned its gaze here, these three would be the first in line.
