My girlfriends and I went to Sugar Rays a few Sundays ago for brunch. DOPE experience! The music was great, the food was good, the drinks were LIT! The service was amazing! All around dope experience! read more

Sugar Ray's was def one of the best brunches I've done in Baltimore. Definitely a hole in the wall spot but it is a hidden gem. The place is small and parking is tight so my group came early and were able to get a nice spot to eat. The cover is $25 and it's an all you can eat buffet with mimosas and sangria included. Food was good and there was a good variety of items. I was annoyed that they had curry chicken out on the buffet but wouldn't serve it until 2 hours into brunch. Why have it out if you not ready to serve it? Anyway, the party atmosphere is what won me over. The DJ was everything. By the time we left brunch, it was the beginning of the day party and we were so lit. Sugar Ray's is definitely somewhere I would do brunch again. read more

Made me feel like it was 2@m when it was only 5 :00 pm it was cool don't take your female unless she likes women.

An inconspicuous Brunch gem in Baltimore. I'd previously heard about Sugar Ray's and their nightlife but, this brunch mention was new. Upon hearing the price for brunch and unlimited mimosa, I was sold. The price you may ask, 25! On the menu: Salmon (plain and BBQ'ed), Fried Fish, Shrimp & Grits, Eggs, Bacon, Sausages, Home fries and French Toast. It all was soooo good. On top of that you could either sip upon, Sangria or Mimosa. Everything was delicious. Our barmaid was very attentive and friendly. Even the proprietor was on hand. He was super awesome. Brunch is from noon to 3. In the midst of Brunch, Dj Infame set up and had us rocking! Don't want to leave post Brunch? Dance off those extra lbs. In addition to brunch, they also had hookah available. If you ever find yourself in the neighborhood and/or are looking for a different brunch scene, this is your place. read more

The food is always good , it wasn't a busy night so the service was pretty fast & renovations on the second floor looks good

OMG. This is my favorite brunch place from now until forever. No other place in Baltimore does it like Sugar Rays. My friends and I shut the place down last Sunday. We got there early and stayed until closing. This was THE BEST DAY PARTY I HAVE EVER BEEN TO. When I arrived, I was a little nervous because of the neighborhood. Once inside, my worries went away. Food, drinks, hookah, and an outdoor lounge for smoking whatever your heart desires. This place caters to everyone: the eater, the dancer, the viber, the smoker, you name it! The food selection was good. There were a few food items that were on the buffet but not ready yet. That was a little confusing to us, but it didn't ruin our time. Man. Just writing this review makes me want to get my crew together to discuss our next visit! This is a great place for birthday celebrations or just to kick it with your crew. It is a flipped home turned lounge. Full bar. Great atmosphere. $25 gets you endless buffet, mimosa, or sangria. Hookah is $30 and $10 for extra coals. Sections on the upper level start at $250. read more

What a vibe this place has! I love how this place is set up-- tons of space to dance! The music is always on point, the Sunday brunch is delicious and the drinks may take a bit of time due to short staff, but they're great too. I come here whenever I wanna let loose on a Sunday. read more

Had brunch for my girls birthday at Sugar Ray's Lounge which was in the heart of the hood. When I first drove up I was wondering where did my friend have me. She did forewarn me, so the shock was lessened because of that. Once you overlook the boarded up houses and the dope boys on the block, it was so worth it. When you first arrive you are greeted by security who checks your i.d. and bag. Then you pay $25 to the lady at the door behind security which covers the buffet and unlimited Mimosas and Sangria. Once I entered, I was greeted with a warm welcome by 2 lovely hosts. I was then taken to my table and the hostess explained that I could head over to the buffet line to get my food and she would have my choice of either a Sangria or Mimosa waiting for me. I started out with the Sangria, it was pretty strong but that was ok. I then went for the Mimosa which I liked better. The hostess came around frequently and made sure our cups stayed full and overfloweth with either a Sangria or Mimosa. After getting my food, I sat down and tried the shrimp and grits first. Now i'll have you know, I don't care for shrimp and grits unless I'm in the south, i mean I have found very few places where its tolerable but I digress. Its just one of those things that I haven't found to be done right up these parts. Like you don't go outside of Maryland to get a crab cake right? It's just something you don't do. Well anywho, the shrimp and grits was lit. Lol. Another favorite dish there was the rice and curry chicken. After I tasted that, I was convinced that somebody Caribbean was back there cooking. No yankee was back there cooking, lol. After devouring my meal and going back for my second plate, I met the owner and who was super sweet. I told him how good the food was and asked where the cook (his wife) was from. He told me Trinidad, I then said I knew it. That food was from someone who had some sort of Caribbean descent. Don't let the appearance of the struggle plate fool ya, that food was bomb. Food was seasoned to perfection. Overall, nice establishment and I will definitely be back again for brunch. read more

When I first pulled up to this establishment, I shuddered due to its location. It's literally in the heart of the hood. Boarded up houses and sketchy characters surround Sugar Rays, but once you cross the threshold, you forget all about it! Be advised, my review is based on Sunday brunch (12-5pm). $25 at the door will get you a hefty brunch buffet and all-you-can-drink Mimosas and Sangria. Eggs, Bacon, Sausage, Curry Chicken, Ribs, String Beans, Shrimp N Grits, French Toast and Seafood Pasta are just a FEW options offered at the buffet. I throughly enjoyed every item on my plate, and proudly went back for seconds...and thirds. As for the Mimosas and Sangrias... top notch! Be careful though, because they WILL sneak up on you. After eating, be sure to head to either lounge area to hear the latest hip-hop/R&B hits and smoke some hookah if you're into that. It was a rainy day when I was there, so I was unable to utilize the outside lounge area. My only gripe is that it's gets pretty hot in the lounge. They had a few window AC units scattered throughout, but they become pointless when the place is jam-packed. Great food, great drinks, great people, great service and fun but mature atmosphere are just a few terms to describe Sugar Rays. I highly recommend their Sunday brunch, but be sure to get there early for a good parking spot. You can also get a free section in the lounge area if you arrive before 12! read more

This review is for Saturday night only!: it was tooo crowded. It's only one bar so we never got a drink bc everybody wanted to hang around the bar area. Nobody wanted to go upstairs or out back (which is set up really nice) the downstairs definitely needs to be remodel bc that cookie cutter structure they have is not working for a small venue. I'm 36 and that crowd wasn't for me. The music was on point tho read more

Did someone say BRUNCH!? Brunch for $25.00 inclusive of bottomless mimosas?! Y'all they brought the DC Native to Baltimore's East Side....let's just say I was coerced into it by a great group of people and great driving buddy, neither of us knowing anything about the city itself - especially in daylight hours. Location - Right off Milton, coming off the hwy its a seemingly straight shot. Drive slow cause you don't want to be me for 15 minutes riding up and down looking for a restaurant....a restaurant that blends into the surrounding esthetics. Decor - Its like a renovated home....with a bar that sits at the door. I like alcohol - works for me. The kitchen is in the back. There are 2 more levels and two entries to both floors with a deck in the rear. It was neat...it was clean...I got comfy and stayed. Food/Drinks - Served buffet style, we were served (yes they serve you) French toast, eggs, grits (sweet grits which I hate by the way) with option of shrimp/sauce topping. Beef and turkey sausage, potatoes (THESE WERE SO GOOD) and biscuits. Mimosa and Sangria are included in your 25.00....they were both equally delicious and even better in a half and half together, lol Ambience - GREAT! The music was awesome, great DJ....as mentioned below, dance those carbs off. Everything felt clean, inclusive of the bathroom. Odds/Ends Service was decent. They serve hookah. Free Street Parking read more

Chill place. Good food on Tuesdays with great 2 for 1 specials on drinks. The only problem is there was only 1 bartender. The servers need to. E more personable. I sat down and nobody approached me for 20 min to see if I was good. Customer engagement goes a long way read more

I had the most amazing time this Sunday April 11, 2021 at Sugar Rays. The music is amazing. The Dj knows what he's doing and the food is the best brunch I've had EVER! You do need to get here early to get a table but it's completely worth coming early. I've enjoyed myself immensely. I will be back. read more

Went to this spot tonight for karaoke. The owner disrespected me. I overheard him talking shit about me. When I approached him, respectfully, and let him know his place was nice but that I'll never be back because I heard what he said, he told me I brought down the energy in his place" with my song choices lol whole time, it was just because I wasn't singing "black songs". He then proceeded to get even more disrespectful by telling me to get the fuck out of there with 2 girls he was sitting with chiming in lol smh This is the problem with establishments like this one. Just rude and unprofessional and unappreciative of their patrons. Did I mention I ordered food that never came? The other girls there for karaoke in the section I was in showed a lot of love, no one else was complaining about my song choices and I actually sang my songs well. I don't appreciate the way I was treated but I'm glad I stopped myself from stooping to his/their level. Not tonight. I can't wait to talk about him, this place, and my experience on the air next week. Never again smh read more

Heard good things about this place, I decided to check it out on a Saturday night. Good atmosphere, music, food and hookahs was great.

Don't let the location fool you! The spot is nice, laid back, great crowd,music and food. The owner is super cool as well!

This would be a 5 star review if it wasn't for the fact that the dj had the volume turned up to the max and I left slightly deaf. Other than that... upon arrival, you will be taken aback because it located in the East side of Baltimore and not the gentrified area. My first time here. Upon arrival there was very little parking. So early arrival is suggested. Also this was a sunday at noon, so be there as soon as they open. It's a $25 cover for brunch which includes your food and sangria and mimosas until 4pm. The food is buffet style. I believe Ray's wife is the head chef...wonderful food. The shrimp was a bit spicy but the grits balanced it out. My drinks were made wonderfully. As soon as you walk in you're acknowledged. Bartenders, security, and hosts all spoke. The servers on the food were friendly and attentive. There wasnt a long wait at the bar and each bar tender held a nice and brief convo with you as if you've know them for a long time. As you make your way around... the top floor is sectioned off with seating for reserved parties and regular tables. There's an outdoor deck upstairs too. The tables that are reserved comes with your own host... which by the way those girls were outstanding. They brought your drinks and food to you and your guests. The dj was amazing. He blended all kinds of music and kept the crowd moving. He read his audience well. Only reason this wasn't a 5 star post is because the music was too loud. Any time you have to text the person beside you it's not a good look. I left slightly deaf lol... I got the audio back in my ears about 2 hours later. Other than that...it was nice. I'd say bring ear plugs so you won't damage your ears. read more

A group of friends and myself had just enjoyed a nice brunch at Rusty Scrupper, and one friend suggested that we continue on celebrating my big 3 0 and go to Sugar Ray's, as they were having a day party. Unbeknownst to the area, we pull up to the establishment and are greeted by 2 security guards. We get there around 4:00 p.m. They tell us the cover charge is $30.00, but its all you can drink Mimosas Sangria and buffet style food. We pay walk in, the seats at the door are very hard to maneuver through. The food table was gone, fine. We just had brunch and really didn't go to eat. But I ask the bartender for a sangria she says $8. Confusing because the people at the door and security said unlimited. I get some Hennessy and kept it moving. Nothing was free and I overheard the someone saying its almost over. Found that hilarious because we came at 4:00 and they pressed the all you can drink. There was absolutely no where to sit, and towards the end it had a urine smell (might have been the Hookah). Unfortunately, the highlight of my experience was my friends. The people at the door lead us to believe we were gonna have an ostentatious experience. No I will not be back, its seems as its geared towards the local crowd anyway. The music was cool. We are hysterically laughing at wasting 30 dollars!!! read more

This past Sunday was my first time going to Sugar Rays. At first I assumed it would be fine dining, upscale and extremely classy however, it was the opposite not in a bad way though. The atmosphere is really relaxed. You can wear whatever you want I felt I was overdressed as I was coming from church. The only part I didn't care too much for was there wasn't a lot of high tables to eat at. I had to eat at a coffee table while holding my plate. The food was good, the music selection was great, and the drinks are strong. Overall, it's was cool. read more
