The Hideaway
If you find yourself in Odenton, MD, do not miss out on The Hideaway, a local barbecue gem that transforms casual dining into a succulent feast. Nestled at 1439 Odenton Rd, this beloved eatery invites you to savor the authentic flavors of barbecue done right, in a setting that feels like a secret hideout just waiting to be discovered.
The menu boasts a mouthwatering selection of dishes that will leave your taste buds dancing. Start off with their Award Winning Wings. These are no ordinary wings; they’re dry-rubbed with a proprietary blend of seasonings, smoked over fragrant pecan wood for three hours, and then flash-fried to crispy perfection. Each bite encapsulates a burst of flavor that fans rave about—it's no wonder they are a signature favorite.
For crab lovers, you can't go wrong with the Chesapeake Crab Dip, a creamy concoction combining backfin blue crab meat with three cheeses and a hint of Old Bay, served alongside a fresh baguette. It's the kind of dish that could make any Marylander proud.
And let’s not forget about dessert. Treat yourself to the Alabama Stack Cake, a rich chocolate lover’s dream layered with creamy mousse, chocolate crunchies, and a heavenly drizzle of caramel sauce. Or opt for the Feuilletine, those delightful crispy bits that offer a textural contrast that’s utterly irresistible.
The ambiance at The Hideaway adds to its charm. With both indoor and outdoor seating options, the restaurant provides a warm and inviting atmosphere perfect for families, friends, or an intimate dinner. While the vibe can lean towards the casual side, it feels like a community hub where locals gather for good food, drinks, and spirited sports viewings. Customers appreciate the accessibility features, ensuring that everyone can enjoy a meal in comfort.
However, some patrons have shared varied feedback on specific dishes. A review from Ciara Childs highlighted the tender ribs, while others felt that certain items lacked standout qualities. Nevertheless, the consensus remains that The Hideaway is a place worth visiting, backed by friendly service that makes diners feel right at home.
Along with delicious food, the restaurant's offerings make it a treasure for those seeking hearty, flavorful dishes. Whether you're a barbecue aficionado or simply looking to indulge in some delightful southern cuisine, The Hideaway is more than ready to welcome you with open arms.
