“Today was my first time - service was excellent super friendly. Food is fresh prepared exactly as the description, I got an iced coffee, also delicious. The restaurant itself is spotless, clean super, plenty of space for meetings, small groups to meet. 10 out of 10. Definitely will be giving it another try.“

“Even though the weather was cloudy and rainy on this late September day, our group received a warm welcome and we were served professionally and with a smile. The food is personally cooked by the owner, who also came out to greet us. The entire meal was delicious, but the conch chowder was one of the best I've ever had and a perfect choice on a rainy afternoon overlooking a lovely harbor. I highly recommend this hidden gem!“

“My wife and I had the opportunity to dine in your restaurant this evening. We chose an early dinner to have time to relax and enjoy the view. I had to write and tell you what a fantastic experience we had. Hannah was our server and she was a shining example of hospitality and great service. Not over bearing but there to see what we needed or how things were food wise. She alone would be our reason for coming back. But the food was absolutely incredible. From the hush puppies, wings, crab cakes and blackened chicken, everything was cooked to perfection and tasted incredible. Not normally dessert eaters, Hannah sold us on two of your deserts! The apple cobbler and tiramisu cheesecake! Again, both were flawless. Please share this with your BOH staff as I know they are often overlooked and of course we sing our praises to Hannah! We were away on our 31st wedding anniversary and The Lighthouse was the jewel in our celebration! Great job to all!!!!!! Than you, Mike & Jo Ann Schatz North Wales, Pa.“

“Amazing food and service. We will be back!“

“We came to the Ruddy Duck while in town visiting family so we could have a belated anniversary date.. We had a most incredible experience...our server David was attentive and pleasant without being over bearing...his menu recommendations were on point! The crab dip is stellar...my husband and I got what was on special...he got the crab cake burger with duck fat fries and I got the steak frites...everything was cooked perfectly! The duck fat fries beat out the well known ones from our current home town, and the steak was melt in your mouth...the mushroom peppercorn sauce was to DIE for... I was so thrilled that Chef agreed to sell me a small container of just the sauce to take home. My husband is going to regret that he brought me, because now we are going to have to go back every time we come back to visit family...10 stars out of 5! ❤️“

“This is going to be lengthy so don't read if not interested in a Birthday Party review. I contacted Guest Relations on Thursday, confirming in Person on Friday, confirmed Catering on a Saturday, & had the physical Ten years Young B-Day party 🥳 on Monday 24Nov25. The Store Manager must have seen the panic on my face. Inclement weather in bound, Solomons park not feasible for a party. Last minute moving in doors, strict budget. Mom wants to thank all kiddos that arrive with a $5/6 dollar thank you gift 💝 from the CB store. Manger so personable & helpful, the kind Gentleman's name is Khari/Kari? I walked through what I believed a group of TEN ravenous energetic boys plus parents would need. The Holiday Berry punch tea (Adults table) was delicious, want to use as a base for cocktails 🍹 at some point. Pitcher of Lemonade for the kids. Platter of sliders X2. No problem with me bringing in cupcakes 🧁 with candles, budget saver. IN THE MOMENT, added a tray of Crispy Dippers. Three of the B-Day boys friends, don't like burgers 🍔. So much chicken on the tray, everyone got two pieces. We were the back corner of the restaurant. A table for gifts & logistical setup. A kids table, a two tables consisted of the Parent Table. Napkins, cups, plates, goodies bags, balloons, coats dump. We brought table wears for Birthday theme & easier recycling ♻️, wasn't going to have some poor soul washing what this ravenous crowd put away other than pitchers of drink. Long table made of three he personally pushed together. We have never had more than two guests show at any previous party 🎉 because of close proximity to travel holiday. We had ten sitting at the tables with the Birthday boy. Also room for platters & cupcakes, out of reach until time to plate & share. When my lighter failed to ignite, manager let me borrow bic from fireplace. Also handed me a cup with an inch of water. When the candles kept re igniting... Into the cup they went, he obviously has done this before. Unbeknownst to Mom/Dad older siblings had swapped B-Day candles for trick candles. While kids were playing with bouncy blow up balloons awaiting arrival of last guest (I was stalling for time) several cups were knocked over. Mya B our Hostess/Server didn't miss a beat... extra napkins at the ready. Didn't know at the time but Happy Birthday 🎊 Napkins shred like confetti 🎉 when wet. When amped up on B-Day Sugar, she placed pitchers of water front & end of table so the wolf pack could detox. All told, food/Drinks, was $80!! This included location, staging, prep time, hearding cats to rest room. Male head unknown to me, Female Head immaculate. Also the hour plus it took for Ten Boys to pick under $7 toy. The apologies continued to flow. All staff helpful, kind, understanding, consummate professionals. I need to return as every visible trace we tried to remove of our being there a ketchup got swept up into the carry out boxes. Catering came with lids which were stackable perfection for leftovers. This Veteran Momma with a port and an MBC diagnosis knows that birthdays are precious, not guaranteed, & fleeting. So thank you 🙏🏽 to the army of everyone that made this possible. Even the dinner guests on the other side of the restaurant were so thoughtful to wish him Birthday Blessings 🗽🕊️⚓️🎗️This will be an Inside Out, core memory I will forever cherish. Thank you 🥹 to Cracker Barrel for returning us to a little bit of everyday normalcy & an exceptional gathering. 🫰🫶🏽👩🏼‍🦲❤️‍🩹“

“Although my wife had a previous bad experience with a female waitress there recently, our visit was refreshing, The you man who was our waiter was refreshing.
He was helpful with the app. Knowledge of the menu was amazing. Friendly and on time.
I was pleasantly surprised by the taste of the house burger.
It had been several years since my last visit but am planning on going back soon.“

“Bugeye Grill Solomons, MD If you’re sleeping on the steak here, fix that. The steak salad is killer, perfectly cooked steak, fresh greens, and it actually eats like a meal. The steak with vegetables was very delicious too, tender, seasoned right, and the veggies weren’t an afterthought. Yeah, it’s a seafood spot, but the kitchen clearly handles beef with the same care. Waterfront views, solid service, and food that delivers. Bugeye Grill is the move in Solomons“

“I had an incredible dinner at this restaurant during my recent road trip. The steak was grilled to absolute perfection, super juicy and seasoned beautifully, and the loaded baked potato on the side was delicious. The atmosphere inside has a really cool western vibe with dim lighting that makes it feel cozy, and our server was so fast and friendly that we never had to ask for a single drink refill.“

“A really nice place to eat. The restaurant is actually in Maryland because it sits on a pier on the river. Great views over the river. The food is good and the seafood fresh. The best Rockfish I've had. Fast friendly service and staff. The only downside is no beers on tap, bottles only.“

“Olde Town Pub We have always loved The Pub, so since we were getting married down the street, we decided we wanted to have our rehearsal dinner here. The staff gave us the entire outside area on the left. We were catered to, taken care of, and fed with amazing food. The wings are always delicious, the drinks are consistently rotating to try new beers, and the staff is always kind and helpful. You can’t go wrong going here for any reason!“

“Great steaks and great customer service!“

“The Ruddy Duck in Solomons is an absolute must-visit! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and had a great overall vibe that made it easy to relax and enjoy the experience. The food was spectacular—everything we ordered was fresh, full of flavor, and cooked perfectly. You can really tell they put thought and care into their menu. Every bite was delicious, and it’s definitely the kind of place where you leave already thinking about what you want to try next time. Our server, Nicole, was amazing and incredibly attentive. She made sure we were taken care of the entire time without ever being overbearing. Her friendly attitude and attention to detail really elevated the experience. What really stood out was that the owner, Carlos, came by to check on us personally. That extra touch says a lot about how much they value their customers. He was genuinely friendly, approachable, and made us feel appreciated. Between the outstanding service, delicious food, and great atmosphere, I would highly recommend The Ruddy Duck to anyone in the area. We had such a great experience and I can’t wait to visit their other location soon!“

“My wife and I were traveling our last few days on the great loop when we were contacted by Solomon’s yacht club to spend a few nights at their facility. What a wonderful group of folks, from the time we got there to the time we left we felt like part of the group. I even give you two free drink passes when you arrive for their very nice pub bar. Special shout out to Doug and Susan. Thanks for your hospitality. Mike and Bonnie on the queen Mary.“

“My go to…great crab cakes, crab dip, steak sandwich. Blackened fish, deserts and drinks!“

“Linda's is a great for breakfast....myself anda couple of old guys meet there once a month to reminisce and chat. The servrers are great and the meals are always good and they give you a great portion which is almost too much to eat....And Rachel is my favorite server“

“The food gets an A. The service and the atmosphere get a 20 on the 10 scale. If we were local this would be our new Sunday morning spot. The homestylecooking, friendly amazing service, like everyone is family when you walk in. Perfect perfect perfect. Thank you so much to making the last stop of our weekend trip such a memorable one!“

“Went for a special event with a group of 20 or so. Ashley was our server. She did an excellent job! Food was very good and served at the right temperature. Because of the group we had a small meeting room, which made it very noisy. Otherwise it was a great venue!“

“Absolutely love the concerts and events being held. Adding to the charm of the historic district.“

“Food was good, but the server I had was inattentive. She just gave me my food and said here you go and walked away. I had hoped she would come back so I could get ketchup. I had to ask another server to get it for me. Since I had a burger with a lot of sauce on it I needed napkins to wipe my hands. Once again no sign of my server. I asked another server walking by if she could get me some napkins. She brought me cocktail napkins. Pretty much useless when trying to wipe sauce off your hands! My server finally showed when I was almost finished eating up to ask me if I wanted anything or the bill. A friend of mine said thyey had poor service there as well. Train your servers and may I will come back one day.“
