I’ve been to t at The General Store twice for dinner now, and both experiences were excellent. The service has always been very good, and the food is great. The rockfish is delicious, and the desserts are great, too. I would recommend starting with the mussels — yum. Definitely give this place a try.

Fabulous food! Beautiful interior. We had great French toast with Nutella, bananas, and coffee flavored syrup. BLT had very flavorful bacon, perfect avocados! The grits were best I’ve ever had. If you are in St. Michaels, definitely check it out.

Worth the drive, and the money. Best. Brunch. Ever. Try the Bloody Marys!

This is the kind of restaurant you WISH was within walking distance of your home. I would be there 5 times a week and then have the Bloody Mary and brunch that I missed. My amazing fiancé is a CIA trained chef and restaurant owner and had researched this restaurant. Always count on him to find the BEST places. Labor Day weekend. Saturday night. Why you should go here and return again-and-again: –Attentive and friendly staff –great bread service and the butter… oh.my.gosh. –owner genuinely appreciates your business and thanks you for coming. what a jewel! –Crazy cool grey/white/black marble floor that you would kill for in your home. –the food… the food… eye roll… –we had crabcakes and succotash –salmon and tagliatelle noodles with fresh carrots & peas. my waistband was about to cut off my circulation so we had to pass on dessert. Incredible menu and restaurant only 13 months old. They had catered a wedding the day we came there. hmmmm… we are newly engaged, no caterer as of yet…

I loved everything about my experience here. I went as part of a group of eight for brunch, and we all had a fantastic experience and wonderful meal. The location is picturesque — darling old general store on a quiet country road surrounded by farmland. The interior is modernized and charming with interesting rustic /art deco /hipster influences(see photos — it’s hard to explain). The service was attentive but not smothering. They made recommendations/answered questions. They even split the bill by person for all eight people, which I haven’t seen a restaurant do in — oh — 10 years? The owner was very friendly and chatted with us about fun things we could do in the area during our stay once we had finished and paid. Oh — they also made a custom dessert for someone at the table who is a vegan. The food was awesome. I had the Jumbo Lump Maryland Crab Cake with edamame succotash and a lemon basil aioli — probably the best crab cake I’ve ever had. Every part of the dish was flavorful and obviously fresh, and the crab cake had tons of meat versus filler. I also loved the tang of the aioli. Others at the table had the Nutella & Banana French Toast(Huge! He licked his plate clean), the Hanger Steak & Eggs(Steak was nicely cooked and the grits were incredible), the«Tea House» Benedicts, and the Roasted Beet Salad. Everyone seemed happy and full. We also had a wonderful dessert course with a peach bread pudding and then a brownie sundae with this incredible biscotti ice cream from The Scottish Highland Creamery. In terms of drinks, the house iced coffee was good and they also offer tons of unique teas(hence the restaurant name). I also LOVED their Bloody Mary — what a «wow» drink, what with bacon and shrimp included in it. You have to check out the photo… I don’t know that I’ll ever be in Easton again, but I’d come back if I were — and I definitely recommend this over a lot of the places in the downtown Easton area.

Fantastic restaurant. The menu is a little thin, but someone at the kitchen really knows what they’re doing. We ordered mozzarella salad and portobello sandwich. The sandwich was made to perfection, perfect level of roasting for both the bun and the mushroom. The service is great. Would definitely recommend.

Delicious. We had the French toast with Nutella and bananas, pancakes, and BLT sandwich. Quaint restaurant in an old general store. The Bloody Mary is like a buffet: shrimp, olives, bacon strip, and more!

Stupid. Good. Food. Seriously. We went here on the recommendation of a friend and were lucky enough to score seats for their New Year’s Eve menu($ 70.00 for three courses, plus an amuse bouche and glass of prosecco to start). The restaurant is casual and quite small, but has definite«flair»(in the good way, not the«Office Space» way). There is a parking lot adjacent with overflow spots next door. The staff is welcoming, organized, and professional(Gary is, simply, a delight); they also take their time to acknowledge their regulars and chat with newbies(even on a busy night such as NYE). The menu was well-planned and varied, and able to please many palates: I had the lobster and fennel salad to start, followed by rack of lamb(perfectly cooked medium-rare) with a mint chimichurri sauce(delicious, much lighter than mint jelly — of which I am not a fan), corn souflee(I want this recipe, it’s a great update on the traditional corn pudding I make for Thanksgiving), and roasted brussel sprouts; my husband began his meal with a Talbot County white cheddar soup drizzled with chive oil(thick and hearty, with a nice emphasis on local purveyors), his main was an individual beef Wellington(again, perfectly cooked) served with asparagus and gold potatoes. For dessert we shared the chocolate-mint pot de crème(very slight mint flavor, not overwhelming) and Linzer torte(delicious, just wish the slice had been larger…). Considering it was NYE and they had one seating before ours(the first at 5:30, second at 7:30), the timing of the meal was great. Maybe most important of all, we didn’t feel rushed; in fact, we chatted with one of the owners after our dinner for a bit and it was nice he took the time to get to know us. That, of course, is one of the best things about the Eastern Shore — the personalities of the people who live, work, and play here — and Royal Oak can now showcase that Shore hospitality to the«T»(sorry, couldn’t help it!).

I have been to the T many times with different friends and family each time. Everyone one thought the food was exceptional! It is a new favorite restaurant. The staff is wonderful. You won’t be disappointed.

At risk of losing our seat, the food here is incredible. Many(maybe all?) dishes include tea in some way. For a new restaurant, they’ve settled in quickly. Service is excellent, and the atmosphere is friendly. The wine list is short, but a good complement to the dishes. The menu is not huge, but is heavy on local ingredients, tea, and interesting combinations. The local rockfish is cooked just right and cut as a thick loin rather than a filet. It is served with something they call«mushroom hash», a combination of mushrooms, potatoes, crab meat, and vegetables in a tea sauce. I’d order this as a side if it was available, it’s that good. Haven’t tried Sunday brunch, but I’m looking forward to it. If you’re in St. Michaels, Easton, or anywhere in Talbot county, make the short trip to Royal Oak and try it out.
