I had a fantastic Sunday brunch yesterday. The steak and eggs were delicious, accompanied by potatoes and whole grain bread. The coffee was superb. The service was attentive and friendly. The outdoor tables in the garden provided a lovely setting for conversation surrounded by greenery.

Food was great (except an overpriced, mundane Caesar salad), but the service was exceedingly slow and uneven. With all the choices on that strip, I doubt I would return.

Came here for Mother's Day. The garden in the back was nice. The food came out late due to "computer issues" but I figured the server could have told the kitchen? The coffee also came cold. The environment is very nice and the hostess was accommodating for where we wanted to sit with a toddler and a baby.

So great to check out Ranazul's new space in the heart of Columbia! As before in Maple Lawn, they offer delicious small plates, creative cocktails, and attentive service. Plenty of outdoor space as well.

I do not live in the area but have dined here several times. The food has been fantastic every time, and sometimes they offer a very nice discounted wine list. Can't wait to go back!

Great evening out! The “tapas” style portions far exceeded our expectations. Especially enjoyed the scallops!

We had a wonderful time at Ranazul. Our food was delicious and our waiter was excellent. I just love the sauces you have created for each dish. They are all very tasty. We will come back again definitely.

I've dined in the area so many times and finally stopped into Ranazul. My friend and I celebrated a job promotion. We got there right around 5 PM and shortly after the bar was packed. We ordered everything from the calamari, ceviche, salmon avocadosashimi, pork stroganoff, and their shrimp orzo. The sashimi was delicious and plenty of fish per dish. The stroganoff wasreally good with the tender pork tenderloin and mushroom sauce. My friend and I agreed the shrimp orzo was one of the bestdishes. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the orzo with the brown butter sauce makes this dish a must order. Service here wasperfect. Even with a full bar we were served really quickly. This is a fun place to enjoy some drinks and yummy tapas.

Great, slightly upscale place for tapas and classic American fare. Tried the chicken sandwich for lunch today, it arrived piping hot and juicy. Pickles would be a great addition.

Everything we tried was excellent! We ordered 15 tapas between the 5 of us, and we are filled to the brim eating it all. Tapas are robust serving sizes and full of flavor. Our favorites were the chicken Alfredo, shrimp orzo, pork stroganoff, and thesalmon medallion. Our server Mariano was attentive, with humor, and knowledgeable about each dish. We only wish we had more roomfor dessert! We will definitely be back. Thank you!

This is the most incredible restaurant in Maple Lawn! Above 5 Stars, always above imagination! A hidden gem. Every Tapa dish is a unique creation, the service is genuine and personable. The food is not just delicious; the Buttery Shrimp Orzu takes you to anew planet, the Pork stroganoff is creamy and smooth. A serious celebration of the art of food!

I had the opportunity to try Ranazul on Saturday. I understand that Howard County is having a restaurant week, but this does not excuse the poor quality of food. The first dish that I tried was the beef tacos. The flavor of the meat was excellent, and thecaramelized onions were a nice touch. However, the tortilla needed to be cooked longer, and the salsa served was a generic brandsalsa like Chi-Chi’s. The second dish I tried was the Peruvian chicken. The garlic-heavy sauce was decent, but the chicken wasdrier than a summer month in Nevada. The third dish I tried was the chicken alfredo. Not only was the chicken dry, but the onlyflavor it had was the char from the skillet. The alfredo sauce tasted like Bertolli brand with no salt or pepper, and thenoodles were not al dente. The person I was with ordered the Crunchy Honey Soy Shrimp, Crispy Chicken, and the Salmon Medallion.None of the dishes they tried were worth finishing. The waitress was young and nice but had no clue about the bar options andhad to continuously ask a coworker about the different drink options. Overall disappointing experience, and I 10/10 DO NOTRECOMMEND.
