Wow!! Blue Ruin was a participant in The Taste of Cambridge this past weekend. They had our vote for best crab cake and Maryland style crab soup. Excellent!! Decided to have dinner tonight and they did not disappoint. Started off with a Long Wharf Punch, and the crab and corn fritters. This appetizer comes with 5 good size fritters and the dipping sauce had the right amount of spice. For our entrée, we ordered the Chesapeake Gumbo. This was perfection in a bowl!! Loaded with chicken, sausage, shrimp, and veggies. The gravy... oh the gravy!!! Service and atmosphere were excellent and we will visit again!

Drove here from Kent Island worth the drive. Such a cute town and wonderful restaurant. Highly recommend everyone try this. The burger was the best meat homemade and the bun it came in was so fresh. Dumplings as an appetizer were also homemade. You will not be disappointed.

An interesting menu and a spot for good food in Cambridge. Straying into gastropub territory, they can produce some excellent dishes.

Ate and drank at Blue Ruin speakeasy Friday. What a great place! Historic building in Cambridge, MD, serving a HUGE selection of whiskies. Awesome drinks at very reasonable prices.

The bartenders really seem knowledgeable about the drinks they make .They have the biggest selection of whisky/bourbon cocktails I have seen! If you are in Cambridge, check this place out. 10 min from the Hyatt Regency.(in fact the bellhop recommended the place)

I will definitely go back to this place.

Best restaurant experience that I’ve had in years! I trusted in our bartender Taylor’s recommendations and was not disappointed in the slightest. We started out with the delicious pork and shrimp gyoza, for my main she suggested the duck confit. I enjoyed everything with a Last Word cocktail and wouldn’t have it any other way. I loved everything and can’t wait to come back again soon! Thank you, Taylor!!!

Sad to say we had a disappointing visit after wanting to go here for a while now. We went for mothers day right after dinner service began just to find out the only appetizer available were french fries or salad. The menu is already limited but instead of telling us ahead of time the waitress waits until we order and goes "oh we are out of that", so we are like oh ok well let's just do this instead "oh we are out of that too", so 3 of 3 for ordering appetizers and striking out when she could have just told us beforehand and saved the trouble. Then we order the Mac and cheese with sausage, out of the sausage too. Chicken sandwhich also out. Just overall very disappointing to have majority of the menu not available when the restaurant was near empty and the brunch menu is completely different than the dinner one.

Watched as the head bartender was drinking behind the bar. Got worse through the night. Attitude got worse and worse and was nasty to customers near the end. Even with the other bartender, seemed like if you werent part of the "in crowd" you just didnt get good service.Saw all the good reviews and had to give it a try. Must be friends of the staff (aka the people getting the good service and treatment). Wont be back
