We stopped in here for happy hour on a Friday. My friends and I ordered quite a few things to share and most everything was amazing. We order the turkey club, hush puppies, cream of crab soup, the charcuterie board, fries, and fried oysters to share. The turkey club was the star of the show. It had nice layers of avocado, the chicken was cooked well, and the bacon added a nice touch. For drinks we stuck to the margaritas and they were perfect! I would say you can skip the fries, the seasoning was great the batch of fries we had seemed like they might not have been fresh. The rest of the menu was so good I would still say you could skip the fries and order a double serving of hush puppies. read more

Loch Bar - Margarita - Seafood Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Although the food and waitstaff were excellent, the overall experience was disappointing. We arrived early for our reservation and were promptly seated at the worst table in the restaurant: the only table with no view, the waitstaff work area directly behind the table, and constant foot traffic behind us as well. We immediately asked the hostess for a different table. She told as that the three booths and the six other two-tops were all reserved. She left us with no attempt at an apology and promptly put reserved signs on all the open tables. When we left an hour later, one booth and 4 two-tops had never been used. Much to our dismay, we saw people seated outside even though we had received a text before arriving saying the patio was closed for the evening. To add insult to injury, even half empty, the noise level was so uncomfortable since everything was tile, marble, or wood that the alarm sensor on my smart watch sounded because of the decibel level. We will not be back. read more

The reviews are what drew us in. Beautiful day, made a reservation, and we were promptly seated in a not too busy restaurant. Two diners. Sat at a two top right behind the waiter service station . Horrible seat in a not very busy space. We ordered yellowtail poke, Caesar Salad, 6 oysters, shrimp banh mi, and brussel sprouts. Poke - visually appealing, lacking flavor and the sauce provide was uninspired. Caesar- simple and delish. Way too much so I asked to take the rest home. Salad was taken and never returned. Oysters - I had 2 each of 3 different types. I love oysters. Eating those six made me lose interest in ever eating another oyster. Just not good. Not spoiled. Just not good. Shrimp banh mi - Nice tasting but not amazing. Brussels sprouts- A bit oily but really delicious. Everyone around me had cocktails with lunch. Perhaps if I were drinking I'd have not noticed how displeasing the experience was. Lastly, the place smelled like stale beer. A one and done for me. read more

This was a cute place to have lunch by the water with your girls. We got fries and their Caesar salads. My friend and I ordered the full salad to share and they kindly plated it as half salads for both of us. We also got their rolls that were delicious and warm and buttery! I paired mine with a Hugo spritz and it was so refreshing. The service was wonderful. Our waitress was really great at recommending drinks and was really attentive. read more

Service was not up to par,by any standards,the ambiance of the place is spot on,that's where it stops Men's room was filthy,the staff seemed very inexperienced,one of the bus boys was hiding,reading a book,everyone's ordered was wrong maybe it was a bad night,who knows,I won't be going back to find out.I was looking forward to coming here,especially it right next door to the four seasons.So they are not bashful about the pricing,If you look at any of my reviews,I never mention pricing If you are going to charge $66.00 dollars for crab cakes,have the service to go with it.On a positive note ,the oysters were good,the $66.00 crab cake's were good The salmon was Ok ,I just don't expect a $500.00 bill with all the mistakes make to our meal,we went to Cinghiale right up the block 5people not 4 perfect services,meal was perfect,same price totally different experience read more

OMFG I AM STILL DAYDREAMING ABOUT THIS MEAL!! It sounds bad but I cannot remember the last time I ate a restaurant and everything was perfect. We were only in Baltimore for one night and leaving town right after this meal so I wanted some authentic Maryland Crab. Yelp helped with my decision with choosing Loch Bar. We arrived in the middle of happy hour. It was freezing and extremely windy outside so it was the perfect coziness to eat some seafood, at least in my opinion. We sat at the bar because that included happy hour items and there were a lot of empty seats. Immediately upon sitting, we were greeted by the bartender. I didn't catch his name but he was about 6 ft tall, slim, African American, and maybe late 20's/ early 30's. Very friendly, attentive, and professional. We ordered several items from the happy hour menu but I really wanted to try the crab cake so I ordered that, which came with either a salad or fries. Since we ordered the Old Bay fries, I went with the salad. Our food came out not too fast and did not take super long, it was great timing. OMFG again! EVERYTHING WAS SO FRIGGIN AMAZING! The crab cake was the freshest and most flavorful I have ever had! The fries were perfectly seasoned and not over fried or greasy. The salad was fresh and the dressing was perfectly balanced! AND THE CRAB SOUP!!! It was the best I ever had! It reminded me of my absolute favorite lobster bisque from a restaurant I grew up on that closed. I am salivating writing this review and definitely need to come back! I loved the decor of the restaurant and mentioned to hubs it reminded me of many seafood restaurants I visited when I lived in NYC. It is right on the water so I imagine it is just as good in the summer. It looked like there was a big outside patio with an outdoor bar so hopefully I get to visit in warmer weather to experience that. read more

I had the pleasure of eating at Loch Bar twice on a recent work trip. Both times I had excellent service! The food was very good, especially the crab cakes; however $66 for crab cakes is kind of outrageous. The drinks were also good and I enjoyed doing an oyster shooter with friends. It's very lovely to be able to sit right by the water but wish they would let you out there even if not eating. I tried to go for a 3rd time just to have drinks on the patio but was told by the hostess that we couldn't sit outside unless we were having a full meal. I thought this was very strange especially since it was at an off time. Ultimately they lost business over that because we went somewhere else. Overall, I really enjoyed Loch Bar for the good food and service; however prices are too inflated. read more

Well, now I know what I have been missing all these years! I had drinks at the Loch Bar several years ago but had never eaten there. What a fantastic experience on a warm Saturday night. The service was excellent and the food out of this world delicious. It's hard to find hushpuppies around this area so when I saw them on the menu, I had to try them and they did not disappoint. I also love lamb, so I ordered the Grilled Lamb Kebabs. The lamb was marinated and came drizzled with an incredibly tasty chimichurri sauce. OMG. They were so tender and flavorful. The portion size was perfect for me to enjoy them all over again the next day as leftovers. I will definitely be coming here often now that I have experienced Loch Bar Baltimore. A beautiful restaurant right on the water. read more

This place had a nice ambience very low lighting. Decent service. We got a cheese platter and was expecting little cubes and it came with big blocks, all good. The beer battered fish didn't have much flavor if you like that this would be great. The fish was flaky. The fries were not crispy. I think the fish needed something to give a flavor. We enjoyed the oysters and cheese plate. I wish the Pazooki was cooked less, but I love the concept. Nice, happy hour crowd! read more

Amazing crab cakes! Excellent atmosphere and great oysters. The cookie for dessert was the cherry on top.

I really want to love this place but the truth is, it's overpriced and underwhelming. I go to all Atlas restaurants and this one personally just doesn't do it for me. The Brussels sprouts are definitely a high point. The crab dip is tasty but again, not good enough to negate the price tag on them. A bowl of French fries is 10 bucks and I have to say, I have had better fries. The Chesapeake was good but I'm ok if I never have it again. The outside space is a nice place to hang. I would say stick to dessert and get a little sun, but even that will still probably run you 20 bucks. read more

I chose to dine at one of my reataurants on my Yelp "To Go" list. This selection is in Harbour East with Harbour view. There are seats available inside or outside. I chose inside due to the numerous Lantern bugs crawling and flying around outside. I made the decision to go here as it had NFL being aired on tvs at the bar and oysters. We ordered drinks Orange crush and Beachcoma. Then we decided on a 2 each of a selection of 4 different types raw oysters. The oysters did not wow me. They did not touch my satisfaction button. I was a bit disappointed. We then ordered grilled chicken club and a medium well Loch burger. My burger came out well done but was tasty. We were okay with our sandwiches. I also ordered Rockafella oysters which they took them off the check as we tasted them. The waitress was cool and told us that many people send them back. They were bland tasting and was packed with cheese as well as watery underneath. All were a hit and miss. Its not a wow restaurant for me and Atlas is not giving the status that they are known for. They may wow you as they have other menu items that of course we didnt get. Try them out if you want the view that is always a plus. read more

First of all, we went to Loch Bar to watch a game at their outside bar and the TVs weren't even on and bartenders weren't interested in turning them on. We went inside to the bar and it was covered in dirty glasses and unwiped bar top. My espresso martini was the color of dirt and genuinely worst I've ever had. Not to mention the bathroom floors were covered in toilet paper. This place used to be an upscale place to go and it has gone severely downhill. read more

Beautiful location but bland food. Also slow service, but the waiters were kind. We stopped in before heading to the ravens game and ordered oysters, mussels and frites and crab cake sandwich. The oysters were a tad warm, we noticed the ice started to melt quickly. The mussels visually seemed that the broth should have flavor but it a bland and thin there were also quite a few closed mussels in the serving so missed out on those because I won't eat bad seafood. The crab cake unfortunately was more breading than crab and underwhelming. We will not be returning. read more

Saturday Night . 10:11 pm Kitchen Close : 11 Restaurant Closes : 12 We ordered Pan Seared Chilean Sea Bass and 1 crab cakes with fries . A glass of Pinot Noir and a coke. Dress Code: I seen women and men in hoodies, club wear, work attire, gowns. Keep in mind it is attached to 4 Seasons Hotel and ppl may be coming from the BYGONE bar on the top floor. Host: Attentive and Friendly Waitress: Nicole , very friendly makes good recommendations. Bathroom: Dirty. Overflowing trash can, tissue on floor, floor with stains. Kinda reminds me of me of a teenage nightclub bathroom. IMO: fast service , good food. Fish cooked to perfection, buttery texture. The dish pictured leaves a bit of heat in your mouth from the ragout .This Chilean Sea Bass is temporary. They will change the menu at some point, not sure when. Crab cake was meaty read more

** 7 Year Updated Review ** I've been here several times in the past few years. Most importantly for my birthday brunch 9.2023 w friends, and another evening w Hubby. Always a great 5 Star time !! Fantastic, picturesque views, amazing service, and quality food and beverages. Last evening visit, Hubby and I visited for HH/ Dinner. We collectively ordered the HH Frozè, House Margarita, MD Crab Soup, and Salmon Wrap. Hubby ordered the House Old Fashioned as well. Sadly, there was a misunderstanding when it was time to pay for bill. We were unaware that HH ended at 6pm. Our bartender (Kelsey) said we missed HH by 2 minutes and we were charged $15 for our House Margarita. Le Sigh. Life goes on. But not ecstatic!! read more

I just came on for dessert and was able to get a spot on their outdoor patio. Our service was efficient and friendly from Mickey. It was a beautiful night, and the string lights helped to set the mood. I enjoyed the smith island cake (its a bit smaller than it was previously making it not such a shareable portion for $14). I wish they put the raspberry sauce on the side, instead of on the cake because it overtook the flavor--- I scraped most of it off. I appreciated that they had decaf espresso. I enjoyed my latte as well. read more

After checking out a speakeasy, we were on the hunt for a bite to eat and ended up at Loch Bar--what a great choice! It was getting late, and the kitchen was about to close in just fifteen minutes. Most places would have turned us away, but the hostess suggested we order from the bar to speed things up. My bartender was fantastic--super friendly and made sure our orders were taken care of quickly. We went for the fish and chips, Maryland crab soup, and a half dozen raw oysters, and I have to say, we were really happy with everything. We also got a couple of Espresso Martinis w/ Bailey's and they were perfect. The food came out fast, the service was excellent, and even though it was crowded, it didn't feel overwhelming. They had the playoffs on and live music playing too. Definitely a 5-star experience! I'll be back for sure! read more

Loch Bar is an excellent choice for vittles and views. We decided to visit on a Sunday afternoon - no wait with options of indoor or patio seating. After being seated and perusing the menu, we decided to start with a couple of cocktails, Oysters Rockefeller, and some fresh oysters. The main course consisted of the Roasted Chicken Club and the Loch Burger (medium well). Our selections came out in a timely manner. The burger was a bit overcooked, but still tasty. The Oysters Rockefeller were quite bland and heavily draped in cheese. Everything else was prepared to perfection. Our server was nice enough to comp the cheesy oysters without even asking. Service was fast and friendly. Overall, this was a pleasant experience. read more

Why did I give the Loch Bar a 5 star rating ? Ambience, decor, comfort and of course, bartenders such as Andrew who know their craft and have a passion for it. Don't ask him to make you a blended daiquiri... it's not in his makeup. He focuses on customer service and experience. I will be back as we enjoyed every ounce of the experience. read more

A big group of us came in for dinner on a weeknight... We sat outside, along the water and had decent service. The views and temps were great out there, but the lantern flies are ridiculous and all over. Their menu is very nice and it was hard to decide what to get, but everything we all chose were things we ended up really enjoying. For me, I absolutely loved the ceviche! Probably in my top 5 ever! Their mac & cheese side is also incredible! I tried their grilled shrimp banh mi and it was interesting - nice flavors, fresh, and tasty. Lots of drinks on tap and on their cocktail menu as well. Definitely worth stopping in! read more

With guests in town for a birthday party nearby when they wanted some good, reliable,l, sit down grub I knew just where to take them! As a walk in party of 6 at 6pm, at first it seemed like it would be impossible with the majority of the empty tables reserved for 7pm resys but they made it work! Starting with the Cream of Crab, Oyster Rockefeller, Fried Brussels and ending with the Crab Grilled Cheese, Chilean Sea Bass and even the Loch Burger everything was delicious!! My guests were pleasantly surprised. We were in and out in a timely fashion with our stomachs full and with nice buzzes from the various libations.

Made a reservation for a Thursday evening and it was fairly empty so we got our choice of seating and sat on the patio. There was live music inside that could be heard outside which provided a nice waterfront vibe. The service was fast and I started with a gin cocktail. The crab cake sandwich and brussels sprouts were AMAZING. Everything was flavorful and the crab cake l was filled with lump meat and topped with an aioli. The brussels were spicy but sweet with the perfect amount of crispness. The dessert was delicious as well. I'll def return when in the are. read more

Found this awesome restaurant right downstairs in The Four Seasons in downtown Baltimore. It is in a perfect location and we were seated right away on a Thursday night. We were starving after a day of travel and our server was quick and attentive. I'm still trying to go dairy and gluten-free so the waitress offered a few options that all sounded delicious! Like everything else in Baltimore, this place was extraordinarily expensive but exactly what we wanted. I guess you just do it with what you have. My daughter got a lobster roll and I got the Chilean Seabass. Both were amazing... surprisingly! Highly recommend except for the $$$$. read more

We came here for my sister's birthday and were not disappointed. The food was amazing; the staff were very friendly & attentive. My party started with the cream of crab soup and the honey sriracha Brussels sprouts, and they both blew me away. I have to say they were both a hit at the table. The soup was the best I've had in years! I love Brussels sprouts, and these were so tasty that we ordered another round for the table. For our entree, we all ate Caesar salad. I decided to pair my salad with a Crabcake and shrimp. The crab cake was delicious and had little to no filler. The shrimp were huge and pretty tasty. The salad was so huge that about four people could share and be full. Pros: Nice ambiance Very attentive staff Best cream of crab soup Bomb Brussels sprouts Delicious food overall Cons: None - The fact that I don't live next door so I can visit every week This place is a 10 out of 10 I'd recommend!!! What are you waiting for? Get here already! Lol. read more

This was one of the best meals that I've enjoyed in a while. I'm usually not a huge seafood eater, but figured I would partake since I was in Baltimore. I started with a cocktail, but the star of the show was the crab grilled cheese. It was divine. It was fresh and hot. However, the fries were room temperature. We ended dinner with the loaded smores blonde. That was scrumptious. The service was great and I would definitely return when in the area. read more

We celebrated our 24th anniversary here for dinner while staying at the Four Seasons. We ordered hush puppies, Parker house rolls, a salad & a cheeseburger. The hush puppies & Parker house rolls were really good. The salad was fine but my husbands burger wasn't good. The roll was falling apart as he ate. Ambiance was nice. There was a live singer on this particular night. We were seated in a small table overlooking the outdoor Christmas tree. As mentioned, we were there for our anniversary. In the past we were offered champagne & cake. This time, we were only offered cake which sadly wasn't very good. Oh & The hostess wasn't the most pleasant person & she wasn't happy when I declined the first table she offered us (small high top table in the corner across from the seafood). read more
