Came in for a drink and a snack. Super friendly and welcoming service. I got the crawfish salad and it was phenomenal. My friend had the Guinness mussels and loved that. I’d come back just for that salad again.

I just wanted to say what an awesome experience Barracudas and Billy provided for my family. We held a surprise 90th birthday party for my Mom there on Saturday and it was perfect. The food was delicious as usual and the service was phenomenal. Abby did a great job taking care of us. Big shout out to the kitchen staff and everyone else who assisted in making my Mom feel loved and appreciated. I live 2 hours from the restaurant, but I make it a point to stop in almost everytime for food and drinks. Everyone has their own opinion concerning the restaurant and staff. In 10 years I have never had a bad experience here or seen anything out of the ordinary reacting to the staff or ownership. I have seen intoxicated patrons but that's it. Do yourself a favor and stop in for a meal or a drink. You won't be disappointed.

Went here because they have outside TV's. Service was bad. Sat in the sun, the outside tables do not have umbrellas, for 5 minutes without a beer after placing my order. Got up and left, will not return.

I arrived promptly at 11am for lunch. It was empty, so the service was prompt. I was eager to eat something a little different.

This is an expensive restaurant. The portion sizes don't warrant their prices.

Cream of Crab Soup - very flavorful but too salty. $32

Italian Steak Sandwich - The first 2 bites were good, then it went downhill from there because it was grisly. $20

Fries - What a disappointment after asking if the fries were fresh cut. I was told yes. They were absolutely disgusting. They were the worst. They seemed refried. They had an old oil taste. They were also hard. I actually paid an extra for these. They should have come with the expensive steak.

I'm so angry I can't think of sleeping... Today after brunch our party of 4 decided to stop and have few drinks. After spending more than 200 good american hard earned dollars in a bit less than 2 hours. Two of the people in our party one black the other white stood up and were looking at the shabby "art" in the wall. After the our friend toughed the picture with her finger the other friend who was black did the exact same thing and out of nowhere comes Billy the Bigoted Barracuda stumbling over and says "stop destroying the picture" confusing we all turn to the look and the already frayed picture of course it had not been destroyed nor disturbed at all... He stood toe to toe with this woman streaming in her face that she had been over-served which she had not. Of the 4 of us only 3 were consuming alcohol we each had 3 beverages over an hour and 45 mins. None of us were over-served. We ask what the issue was and Billy says"I don't want you touching it"...
Yes I know in this climate we have to get in where we fit in, but why does it have to be this way .. had we walked in and they told us you guys aren't welcomed here, it would still be an issue but I could respect that more than a loud mouth drunk bigot making a scene after the fact..
So stay away and spend your money and time somewhere, anywhere else.

This place is great! We were looking for a spot to get crab cakes as tourists. All the “tourist” places were crowded and not our vibe. This place on Locust Point is on point. The food is amazing. The service is great. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. Perfection.

8/16/24 we went to Barrcuda Grill locust point baltimore to have a drink after a nice brunch. We spent about 2 hr there & over $200. I wasn’t drinking anything except water! We had a good time, Good drinks until the end. I got up from my bar stool to stretch my legs to walk around looking at the wall decor. I noticed a cardboard photo, I used my hand to read the saying while touching the image. Then as I finished my friend did the exact same thing. Out of nowhere a white male approached us saying he was Billy , the owner of the bar & he seemed impaired and under the influence. He said “don’t touch that .” We had no idea if he is the legal owner or not as the way he approached was very aggressive. Me And my friend had no idea why he came over or what he was complaining about . He accused my friend of “being childish and touching things” also kept saying “ don’t want you to touch it” He was only accusing & aggressive toward my friend . Sadly my friend & I are different ethnicity and this definitely seems like profiling & uncalled entitled white male behavior towards women and especially a woman of color. This was the most immature, pathetic, lack of respect and act of racism that I have not ever seen in front of me for a long time, so sad… This establishment due to BULLY BILLY is definitely somewhere I would tell everyone to stay away from. Don’t spend your money on an ignorant heartless classless man /business owner. Stop the hate …

I remember coming here several years ago and eating a surf & turf nacho platter. I enjoyed it so much.

Fast forward to now, I grabbed one up and Holy Frijoles (pun) it was a half tin foiled pan of nachos.

The last time I received nachos that big was in a round cake box to-go many years ago as I stated above.

Waited 2 hours after ordering for chicken wings and shrimp tacos. The server was apologetic, but the wait time was unreasonable. Tacos were not advertised as hot yet. They had some ungodly hot jalapeño pico on them that made them miserable to eat. The atmosphere was enjoyable, but the food was forgettable.

Decided to come here while waiting for a friend. So glad we did! The happy hour crush drinks are made with freshly squeezed juice and delicious. Plus only $5 happy hour price. Sat at the bar and had excellent service. The guy next to me got the soft shell crab sandwich and said it was great. I will come back and check out the food. Great soccer bar and atmosphere?
