Headed to Bowleys on the Bay on July 2nd by boat. After tying up at the marina fueling station (ok…read moreto dock there after 5 pm), we were told we could not sit outside and would need to be seated inside. Not sure why? There were other guests who arrived after us (a party of 5) who were welcomed to outdoor seating. The hostess seemed annoyed so maybe she was having a bad day. Considering that the main reason we chose the restaurant was because they have outdoor seating which allows for views of the sunset, not to mention, a small beach which would keep a toddler happy by playing in the water, we truly were disappointed by the hostess' choice to seat us in an empty dining area since the weather was gorgeous. The server was also unsure why we were seated inside since she had tables outside and had to run in and out to serve us. The food was pretty good but the service was slow (as noted above). The server was very nice and accommodating. All in all, a pleasant place to dine but beware of being seated indoors during the summer. In hindsight sight we should have insisted on being seated outside, even if it meant a wait.

2/15/26 Update!…read more Lib's Grill has become our regular pit stop on the way to D.C. We have become "regulars" and our server that we ask for every time, (Brenna) is a bright light and always provides us with amazing service that keeps us coming back! We all enjoyed our lunch and I have to say, Lib's Grill was rocking! It was President's Weekend Holiday and every table was taken for brunch/lunch. Our meals, once again were all really good and service was top notch. Thank you, Brenna, (and team), for making our meal a memorable one, once again. I'll provide some updated photos to keep this review as fresh as the food and service! :)

I went in there while out shopping and having done much needed me time! Bar Louie was just opening,…read moreso I sat at the bar to have a blue moon. Xavier was the bar tender and he was super sweet, attitude was very pleasant, and super attentive ! The restaurant was tidy and I had a pleasant time. Other customers began to come in after me and Xavier made sure to check on me ! I didn't order food this time around, just drinks! However this time was drastically different than my last visit so I would come back again!

I'm just going to be real, the service at Bar Louie on 4/18/2026 was horrible. No sugarcoating it…read more This was my daughter's birthday. We had family come in from out of town, and this experience did the complete opposite of what it should have. It was unsettling and honestly embarrassing. Our waiter, Xavier, was completely off. He kept forgetting our order, and we were sitting there waiting 10 to 20 minutes at a time for simple things we already asked for. That happened more than once. That's not okay. On top of that, the food came out cold. So now we're already dealing with long waits and cold food? It just kept getting worse. And the attitude? Not good. I don't know what was going on with him, but the energy was off the whole time. Customer service matters, and this wasn't it. Then came the bill. We were told everything had to be on one receipt and one card. Absolutely not. When we asked to split it, instead of making it easy, he made it complicated for no reason. That's basic service, and it should not be an issue. And somehow a 20 percent gratuity was added for everyone? For what? That level of service did not earn that. Overall, this experience was frustrating from start to finish. Long waits, cold food, poor service, and unnecessary hassle at the end. My daughter's birthday dinner should have been a good memory, and instead it was a disappointment. Management needs to address this immediately. This is not a small issue, this is a complete breakdown in service, especially for a special occasion. I expect a direct response, not a generic apology, but accountability and a clear explanation of how this is going to be corrected. No one should have to experience this, especially when they are celebrating something important.

Sunshine Grille on Fork Road is one of those places the locals don't tell you about--because once…read morethe secret's out, it's packed all the time. And honestly... I get it. If you can snag a spot, you're in for a treat. The place has a charming, tucked-away feel, yet it's still easy to get to. The menu is extensive and genuinely has something for everyone--even the picky eaters in the group. Pro tip: split a meal. Life is way too short to skip dessert, and their cake selection alone is reason enough to come here. Big slices, lots of choices, and yes--cake absolutely counts as a meal. Service is friendly and solid, the vibe is relaxed, and the food delivers every time. You should go there today. Just don't tell too many people. Keep it a secret.

Although today our server seemed to be rushing and surfing his phone but our attention was average although my coffee cup went silent twice. My wife got some gigantic flavored blueberry cold brew.

We were surprised how barren the restaurant was at 8:30PM on a Saturday night. Noise level wasn't an issue at all. My brother had been here prior and recommended this place. River stone burger 8/10: Can't go wrong with this option. We got it done medium rare. The bacon was thick. Tomato and shrimp bruschetta 8/10: Presentation was beautiful. Very flavorful Watermelon refresher 9/10: Would order again! It was refreshing. Perfect drink for someone with a sweet tooth. Nachos 7/10: I wish the chips themselves were warm. However the cheese they used was very good!

Nicely decorated and comfortable seating at bar. Super friendly bartender!! Like 10 star. Very attentive and very welcoming. Always checking in to make sure all is good. Ordered a margarita that was tasty. Also ordered a capri martini (think lemon) that was subpar. Manhattan was ordered and was very good. Lots of drink options and lots of beet on tap. Ordered a flatbread pizza that was good and the pesto chicken sandwich (no bun) that was delicious! Sandwich was served with house made chips that were worth fighting over. Tons of specials. Just a terrific place to perch. Will be back. They even have Keno!

I've been to Silver Diner a few times now, and I can honestly say the food has never failed me…read more I've tried both their breakfast and lunch, and everything has been consistently great. The quality, the flavor, and the presentation are always on point. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. The ambiance is also really nice. It definitely feels like a more upscale diner, not your typical diner experience. It's comfortable, clean, and just has a better overall vibe. If you're in the White Marsh area, I definitely recommend checking it out. It's one of those spots you can count on every time.

My husband and I decided to give this spot a try because of the good reviews, it didn't disappoint. We were waited on quickly, they handed us menus and showed us there is a board of specials.

My husband got the Steam shrimp with potatoes and onions and the portion was perfect, cooked well, and easy to peel. I just kept saying I couldn't believe we didn't try this place sooner! Server is very attentive and refilled our drinks whenever it was getting low, kept asking if we needed anything. The prices are excellent!
