          Overall
          A favorite of mine. Quality and service have always been superb. My choice for special occasions.

          This restaurant is in an old historic plantation house and a delightful place for two or a party. PWM

          Traditional Dining in a Historic Country Setting

          General Info
          The Kings Contrivance Restaurant is located on what was a 370-acre farm granted in 1730 by The Lord Baltimore to The Reverend James Macgill. A stately Federal Period mansion was built on the present site. It burned to the ground and was rebuilt in the late 1890's. The residence remained in the Macgill family until the 1960's, when it was converted into its present form as a fine dining restaurant. The Kings Contrivance Restaurant is considered Howard County's finest restaurant, serving the very best in New American cuisine with European and Asian influences. In fact, we have been voted Howard county's finest dining for over twenty consecutive years.
