This is that secret dive where steaks hang off the plate and cost 14 bucks. The locals keep this as their little hidden gem.

Average food, good prices, best of all, beer to go! Certain nights that have specials and it gets crowded. Things really slow down then.

Great place to grab good food and drinks. This is a classic spot in the area. They have a retro…read morevibe as the decor is original. It adds to the atmosphere and I hope that they never remodel. It's like walking back in time. There is ample parking and an entrance for the bar or dining room. The bar area has lots of seating both along the actual bar itself, as well as other tables throughout and around the pool tables. The staff is super friendly and attentive even when they are very busy. There are lots of regulars and you can see that this place is a staple in the community based on the relaxed atmosphere and down to earth hospitality. They have pit beef/turkey/ham on weekends that are served on homemade rolls. They also have platter options. The menu also offers other things for lunch, as well as sides. The dinner menu has many other offerings as well. The bar has 6 beers on tap, as well as many other can/bottle options. The prices are very reasonable for what you get. Lots of items are homemade. The portions are good and the taste of what we ordered was great. Definitely a place worth the stopping by.

The food is phenomenal, the service is exceptional, and the ambiance of this place is so calm and beautiful. I would highly recommend eating here for any occasion, oh and eat those biscuits!

First time here at the location in Fallston. Had apps one time with a customer at the White Marsh…read morelocation a few years ago. Decided to have a little "celebration" for a successful year end at our business. The good - attentive service. Called ahead and they held a table for 15 min until we arrived. Friday and it was packed. Cocktails good. Food, I've got some concerns. Appetizers - ordered cheesesteak eggrolls and octopus. Eggrolls were excellent. Octopus thought, I'm used to the presentation at Bacco's so I could do without it being cut into tiny pieces and buried in sauce. Salad - shared the kale salad. Great flavor but the ( wife's pet peeve when I serve it ), the kale was in very large chunks, could use a bit more chopping. Main Course - wife had stroganoff and I had the NY strip. I don't know what it is about Harford County but it's the last time I'll try to get a proper NY strip here. I should have known when it was only $52 on the menu. Steak & Main advertises "best steaks around" and serves the same 1/2" thin cut slice that looks like it came from Ponderosa but they charge $65 which is a ripoff. I like my steak rare and with a steak this thin, it's impossible but at least they were close. Again, stuff all over the top of the meat, a bit too much. Stroganoff - solid!! Dessert- Bananas Foster / solid!! My only gripe is the steak. We will be back for sure but I'm done trying to get one out and will just continue getting a nice cut from a butcher and treating myself at home.

You never know what you are going to get from a hotel…read morerestaurant. PrimeTime is a 5 star experience based on its menu and service. Nice atmosphere with many tables. Looks like it might get crowded on weekends or for sporting events. TV's ring the perimeter with lots of choices. We had an excellent Crab Cake BLT with fries and a beautiful piece of Honey Salmon. We ordered the Fresh Rye Bread that hit the spot and finished with good Bread Pudding. Everything was spot on! I have done a review on the College Park Hotel Cambia that houses PrimeTime. It's really a strong 4 **** or 5***** that some have rated a 3 ***. We will stay here again thane next time we visit Bethesda. We will also explore the PrimeTime menu while staying at Cambria.

The nautical theme and friendly service make PrimeTime restaurant a fun spot to stop by for lunch…read more A huge round of thanks to Fatima who waited on us. She was a ray of sunshine and gave us help in deciding on menu items. We both ordered salads. I ordered the crab and shrimp Louis salad. And, my friend ordered a chicken salad. Our salads were huge, fresh, and delicious. I really liked the fresh veggies and poached shrimp. I also liked the surprise sprinkle of Old Bay on my seafood. I wasn't a fan of the crabmeat. The dressing was delicious too. My friend liked her chicken salad. She did say her chicken was a little dry. But, she loved all of the fresh veggies and ended up taking the leftovers home. I also ordered the Oreo cheesecake which was delicious. I mean come on now, you combine Oreo's and cheesecake, that is a winning combination and the whipped cream was amazing. The restaurant itself was bright, colorful, and full of sea themed decor. The booth was comfortable and you get 3 hours of free parking in the garage. Again, thanks Fatima for your excellent service. We will definitely be back.

This was not our first trip to Water Street. We've been many times and it's a favorite…read more We went to celebrate my Birthday. After we were seated I was greeted with a birthday card and a hand painted oyster shell Christmas ornament. The weather was bad so the deck was closed. Our waitress was excellent, gave us the specials, and had our drinks out in minutes. Cream of Crab Soup and Steamed claim in garlic butter are must haves. The Cream of Crab is some of the best on the Easy Coast. My wife ordered the Salmon BLT wrap. I had the Salt Life. Scallops, shrimp, lump crab and cod in an amazing Old Bay Alfredo sauce. This was the first time eating inside. We still had a beautiful view down the Susquehanna River. Another perfect afternoon and meal at Water Street Seafood. Made all the more special with the gift and card! Thank You.

I had a wonderful experience dining here. We made reservations for an outside table at lunch. Since…read morewe were hungry for seafood, we ordered several things: 1/2 pound of shrimp, fresh grilled fish, crab hush puppies, raw oysters and clams. Everything was great. Probably my favorite things were the crab hush puppies, and the fresh fish, served with pineapple. The entrees came with two sides. Therefore, I tried four sides. The French fries and potato salad were really good. The fresh vegetables had onions in it. I am not a big onion fan. The coleslaw was good. Next time, I will order the fish, with just one side- the potato salad was very large. For an appetizer, I will get the clams again, and the crab hush puppies. Yelp was so helpful guiding me to the hush puppies. The chef prepared our food outstandingly. Coral was are very friendly server. A nice meal with an outstanding server and a view of the water made for an excellent day. The host and the people helping out to clear the table were very nice, also. The vibe at the restaurant was a tropical beach feeling. People were dressed casually, mostly in t-shirts.
