    Garden Pasta
    Erica R.

    First time actually eating downstairs at The Garden. We were a party of appx 11. Our waitress was Lonnie and she was great. I ordered the Garden Pasta which reminded me of Rasta pasta. It was cool, just needed a little more seasoning and less peppers & onions. Shrimp delivered eggs were 10/10.

    I always enjoy my time at the Garden. We need more spaces like this is in Baltimore. Thursday is my favorite day to go because the happy hour runs from 5-7 downstairs and 5-8 upstairs (live band upstairs). I love that there are so many different vibes within the one space. If you want something more quiet, downstairs is the way to go. If you want a bit more noise and energy, then upstairs is the way to go. Hookah is only available upstairs. Dani and Tiffanie always provide great service! Drinks are always on crafted beautifully. I have yet to be disappointed in any of the food I've tried.

    Came for a late dinner. We were sitted pretty quickly and waited on . However when it came time to get the bill and pay we couldn't get any attention. We were basically begging to pay so we couldn't leave. Nonetheless, the food was really good, the ambiance is very nice as well.

    Looking for great ambience, food, vibes and customer service then you need to check this place out. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a smile and a complimentary glass of champagne as it was Valentine's Day. For starters, my best friend ordered the fried catfish bites 10 out of 10! Perfectly seasoned and fried to a nice golden brown. To drink, I chose the Garden Drop, which is their take on the lemon drop. They offer a variety of flavors and my hostess recommended the peach. Yum...it was really good and if I had time, I would have gotten another, highly recommend. For my entrée I had to go with the grilled lamb chops and man they didn't miss. They had a nice char, seasoned and cooked as requested - medium well (light pink for me). For my sides I had to try their mac and cheese and sauteed spinach. Both sides didn't miss the spinach was not overly cooked, I could taste garlic and it just melted in my mouth. Now for dessert.....they had a banana bread pudding and baaaaabbbbeeeeee I think I would've slapped my mama for another slice of this. I was mad at myself for not getting one to take back to Va with me. Ambience - 5 Food - 5 Customer Service - Greeter, Hostess (Aloni) Manager - all 5's Drinks - 5 Vibes - 5 I would definitely come back if I am ever in Baltimore again!!

    They have the best hookah and it definitely a place that is chill with music and drinks. I also, have visited for brunch and have had the catfish and grits. The food was really good and underpriced. The cocktails are also great and the service is prompt.

    Salmon and lamb chops

    We had such a phenomenal time the first time there, yet when we went for a birthday the vibe was a little different. We did go on a Friday night, which was awesome. Be sure that you go early so that if you need to find parking you can do that. They do have a valley service right directly next to the restaurant but you gotta pull in and use your cash app or Venmo in order to pay for parking which is $10. We made reservations for three thinking that we would get the main dining room on the first floor, but we did not. We were seated in the bar area dining section. That's not bad if you want to be separated from what's taking place yet it's tight. It's bar top tables and of course you're battling with the waitresses, surveying both the bar and the bar dining area. The food came out quickly. Because this was a birthday celebration they did bring out birthday dessert for the table to share which was really great. We got the chicken wings for appetizers and two of us got the salmon dish and the other got the lamb dish. All dishes are at least $25 up. Our waitress was wonderful and the food was pretty good although the portions were way smaller than before. The thing that got us this time around was they required dress code and we saw plenty of people who were not abiding by the dress code. We will definitely give it another try. We didn't see any dancers this time yet. It's a great place to go for the rooftop, especially in the summertime.

    If you're searching for a place to turn up after brunch on the weekend or HH hours, try them. People so close they thought they knew you but good vibes and bartender was friendly and attentive.

    Great food good service and amazing atmosphere! Parking wasn't bad as there is street and lot parking close by. They offer lot parking but it's $20 and parking nearby is wayyyy cheaper. The lower level has a full bar with a lovely range of quality drink options not just rale or mid shelf. They have an extended dining room past the hostess stand which was cute. The food items were very tasty and well presented. Cheeseburger sliders Veggie spring rolls Lamp chops Jerk salmon and asparagus Catfish bites All were delicious and would definitely order any of them again Upstairs had 2 DJs a full bar and a gentleman playing Congo drums if I'm not mistaken. Definitely good vibes. The had burlesque like dancers come out on several occasions to perform. The space has an open roof concept which allows for pretty good ventilation. The restrooms were clean and nice. Hookah is available for purchase. I'd definitely recommend going here for any occasion you want to have a good time and enjoy yourself while eating good..

    I went for brunch and was throughly impressed. From the cleanliness, to their ambiance everything was perfect. The food was great as well. I didn't even feel like I was in Baltimore. I recommend that my daughter have her birthday dinner there and her and her friends loved it too!

    The environment was fun with lots of celebrations happening around. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the jerk salmon. Our server was very nice however the service was very slow. It took quite some time for us to get our order in, grab the bill, and very long to get to go boxes. Luckily the general manager was on top of it and really helped us.

    Really great experience. Food was really really good. The cocktails were aesthetically pleasing and well worth it. Service was excellent. Our waiter H was very attentive and friendly. The lounge on the second floor was a vibe. Nice mix of music and looked out for us DC folk that were visiting

    Came here for a birthday brunch and it was perfect! The food was delicious, the vibe was great, and our server Jas was amazing -- super friendly, attentive, and made the day extra special. Highly recommend!

    Omg, I loved it here. Downstairs is the beautiful restaurant, and upstairs is the enclosed rooftop. The food was so good. I got the branzino and Mac n cheese on the side. The Mac and cheese was one of the best I've ever had. The branzino was solid too. I got a blueberry gin drink, but I can't remember the name. I'm not a blueberry person, so I didn't care for it. We went to the rooftop after dinner for a few more drinks and they had a DJ. It was such a fun night. I'd definitely come back.

    See all

She it made seem taboo. Sooooo...I go stand by the doorway and after 1-2 mins I ask her what does she recommend I do...then she tells me I can stand at the bar. After that it took over 45 mins before the bartender acknowledged me. The bartender then tells me that they are not serving patrons who are standing because they're busy. The manager tells me to stand in a specific spot and the bartender was like I am not serving standing people..my thought: "this place does not want to make money" The bartender even comes back around and let's me know that someone is about to get up, which I did appreciate. Unfortunately, I do not recommend!!! Its not worth the hassle. Support a business that respects and appreciates your patronage.

This was a post dinner bar visit so we mainly had drinks and added a few treats: colossal shrimp cocktail and warm butter cake. The colossal shrimp cocktail contained some of the largest prawns that I've ever had. They were fresh and perfectly prepared but one was enjoy to fill you up. The warm butter cake was sinfully good! Warm, soft, and sweet. The drinks were AMAZING! I ordered the Recurrence Eternal which contained gin, pear, and champagne. There were other ingredients in there but I wanted to spotlight these few. This was the perfect drink which will creep up on you LOL but it was sooooooooooo good. My boyfriend enjoyed his whiskey drink as well.

I have never been splashed in the face during the shaking of a drink that was being made by the bartender. The bartender was of a different race and seemed annoyed by my presence from the jump. I had been splashed in the face twice until a customer of his race came and sat next to me. I did pay attention to his behavior while the woman was seated next to me and his drink mixing wasn't as aggressive. I had to go to the bathroom during my visit and told him I would pay before going to the bathroom so he wouldn't make any assumptions about me. I asked him to keep my drink behind the bar because the woman was still seated next to me. I came back and the woman eventually left. I was still finishing my drink and I was splashed 2 additional times. The last time I made him aware of what he was doing. His apology was disingenuous and passive aggressive. I left after this even though I had intentions on ordering desert and listening to the musicians that were about to get started. I did inform the manager about my experience prior to leaving. I'm leaving the review bc the experience still bothers me. If they have cameras at the bar I'm sure my reaction to the splashing can be observed.

So delicious. It was late night and I stayed here about an hour (closed the spot ha) and I was able to enjoy a mini impromptu concert by another patron Ebony, as Kyle was sweet enough to play some of her music.

I went an hour early before everyone else was supposed to be there to get on the waitlist, but the wait was until 10 pm!! So I quickly switched gears and called Benny's because I've heard great things about them. The gentlemen who answered the phone was so kind, and was able to squeeze us in on the fly on a Saturday night, and they weren't slow. Got there super early because I was already in the area, and my wife and I decided to have an old fashioned and an espresso martini at the bar while we waited and they were excellent. The ambiance was upscale but still managed to be relaxed and comfortable. We had a lovely dinner, the waiter was busy but was still attentive and patient. Our whole experience was awesome, so we were already going back in the future. Yesterday I realized a mistake on my bank account from the bar charge, so I called around 6 pm and spoke to the same gentlemen as before. He got all my info and promised he'd call back in 5 minutes. I didn't really expect 5 minutes because I know how crazy the dinner rush would be at an Italian restaurant with a Wednesday wine special. Not even 3 minutes later he called back, and explained what happened, fixed it and I got a follow up text immediately letting us know the refund was already in process. Now, I've been in the service industry and I was a bartender, so I understand that I'm going to be a little biased here but from beginning to end Benny's went above and beyond. They clearly appreciate their customers and love their work, it shows.
