    Beautiful setting, lovely wait staff. Terrible food that costs way more than it should.

    Christopher's Kitchen is hands down the best restaurant in Cambridge and something you do not find…read morejust anywhere. The menu is really fun and inventive, and everything we tried was excellent. There was not a single dish that disappointed. The craft cocktails were also a lot of fun and clearly well thought out. On top of that, the atmosphere is really romantic, which makes it a perfect spot for a date night. If you are looking for a unique place with great food and drinks, this is it.

    The food was delicious, but the rest was a little off. First, the food. We stuck to appetizers:…read moreBrussels sprouts, mac and cheese, and the crab dip flatbread. All were excellent. I particularly liked the sweet corn on the flatbread. We also had cocktails- an old fashioned for me and a mojito for my friend - they were fine. The theme of the restaurant is Edgar Allen Poe, and they just went way too far with the literary idea. The menu was long-winded and confusing. You have to read each item carefully and try to decipher what you'll be getting. For example, the Aristocrat is "a feast for a king or his court, flame-forged angus blend cloaked in American cheese and enthroned upon shattered lettuce...". Huh? Is that a cheesesteak with shredded lettuce? I thought it was absurd and funny. My hangry friend did not see the humor. We both agreed this really good restaurant is doing itself a huge disservice by confusing customers. First rule of selling anything is to make it easy for the customer to want what you're selling. We did ask our server their favorites on the menu. They named a few appetizers and said they mostly stick to the less expensive items. This is supposed to be an upscale restaurant, and I would expect the staff to be well-educated on the food. I don't blame the server for not forking over the cash for a variety of menu items. It's a pricey place. But don't they prepare the staff to answer questions about the food by letting them taste everything? I thought it was standard practice to prepare tasting portions for waitstaff. This restaurant is currently too tied to their theme. With a little editing, this could be a great place. I hope more people give them a chance, offer constructive feedback, and that the management is open to suggestion.

    Madison Bay R&R is a hidden gem in the Cambridge, MD area!…read more My wife and I found this place years ago on a weekend stay at the Hyatt Chesapeake Bay. We were out roaming the islands by car getting lost when we came upon this diner style place to eat. We sat at the bar and were treating a little gruffly on this visit. Something about this place being for locals and we were sitting in someone's assigned seat. The "seat owners" came in, but said not to worry, they would sit further down the bar We were a little uncomfortable, but had some of the BEST crab cakes ever. The lady behind the bar said her crab cakes won a state wide competition. They were good! Fast forward 4 years and we planned to take advantage of a Hyatt promotion and return to the Chesapeake Bay. Remembering this place, I wanted to find it again. We were lost the first time and not sure how to return. Fortunately, it is placed on a memorable cove from the bay with a trailer park nearby and a big red roof. I used Google Earth to search the images of water front buildings and found what looked like the exact location. I then mapped the location for directions from the Hyatt. Incredibly, it is a straight shot from the Hyatt private drive about 12 miles away. This visit was an incredible journey into a locals' haven. The 3 guys at the bar and the bartender were very gracious. We had good conversation and enjoyed the $2 happy hour beers. The locals were fun to talk with and we learned a lot about the area, fishing, and sailing. We even learned that celebrities including Larry Hagman and others have been to this place. The crabs cakes were as good as we remembered! Most the sides are fresh made on site or "doctored up" to taste as good as homemade. It was so good, we went back the next day for the same thing! Kitty, the bartender, and her husband manage the place and the trailer park next door. Prices are very reasonable and it beats Cantler's for lump crab cakes!
