“Love the pizza, steamed shrimp, pastami sandwich and salads. Was super disappointed in the French dip and“

“Went to Ashland Cafe last Saturday night... The food was great the band was great but our waitress was exceptional...Becca went above and beyond with her service.... She needs a raise... Well definitely be back!!!“

“My husband and I met some friends for dinner here. We passed by multiple, but this was our first time in. It feels like an upscale sports bar when you walk in. The service was standard and the food was very good. I heard that the lamb was a dish people raved about, so I tasted it. It did not disappoint! The salmon bites were also delicious. We had a great time! I think just about anyone would enjoy themselves here. It's not too casual, but not pretentious.“

“The cheeseburger was fantastic! The bartender was superb for drinks and conversation. Dive bar excellence.“

“This is a typical bar with with bar food. No Different than TGI Friday, except a little better. The service is "OK" the servers are untrained as to waiting on tables. The first thing that should be brought to tables is eating utensils and napkins, the water. The tables dont have slat & pepper available for their patrons, you need to ask for it. The menus are not placed in front of customers upside down. (And I even brought it to her attention and she still didn’t correct it) ?? All in all the server was trying very hard to be attentive. The food was not terrible, it's typical bar food, and dont expect anything more. The Boom Boom shrimp are pre breaded frozen shrimp with the tails on and then fried and covered in some type of sauce. My daughter liked the boneless chicken wings with hot sauce. The onion rings I thought were good. I ordered the toasted Italian sub and wasn't offered the option to get tater tots -vs- fries. I didn’t realize this till later and the fries were soggy. I think this is an "OK" spot for someone looking for a bar atmosphere and same for the food & service.“

“Very nice neighborhood watering hole!! Staff friendly food is fabulous and the music guest this evening was great too!!! We had a very nice evening for being out on a Sunday nigh! Definitely be back!!“

“It made me feel like home! 😍“

“they have great local bands on the weekends and in summer a beer garden w/bands.great beer selection.good food,friendly staff.best hang in baltimore co.“

“For a bar on the outside it’s not like a looker but don’t let that steer you away. They have a small food menu but they do it Good. I got chicken tenders and a chicken cheesesteak both were yummy. If you want a cool afternoon drink and lunch with a chill vibe this is the spot. The bar tender Sharon was very polite and sweet and the cook even came out to deliver the food to us. I would highly recommend this bar for budget food and drink for a good buck👍🤟“

“My friend and I visited this lounge for the first time last month. It is a BEAUTIFUL lounge. A great atmosphere and gorgeous ambiance. The bartender was very nice. However, our experience could have been better for a couple reasons: First, a lot of the items on the food menu were unavailable! Maybe the lounge was waiting for a food inventory delivery? Who knows? My friend tried to order three food items off the menu, and for each item the bartender said “I have to check with the kitchen to see if we have it!” They didn’t have the three items. My friend settled for the steamed shrimp. 🤷🏾‍♀️ My second and last issue/complaint: We both ordered a delicious pink martini-style drink (I forgot the exact name). The drink was good but it was mainly juice/sugar/grenadine— it hardly had any alcohol. It tasted like we were drinking a really good pink lemonade beverage lol. I will give this lounge another chance and most likely several more chances because it’s near my house. They should just stop skimping on the alcohol and have most menu items in stock!“

“Wow leaving from City Line now 😢 friend recommended City Line for a Re Pass and City Line did us wrong Overcharged Everybody just because you never seen none of Us before we only live 20 minutes away but we are never coming back the waitresses make up their own prices DJ was good but we can't f*** with that“

“First time here tonite. Was headed to another spot, but my friend saw this as we were making a turn on White Ave and said let’s try this. So happy we did. Food, drinks and service were on point. Very big portions on the happy hour menu, and the drinks were solid. Prices were really good for everything. Nice spot for a small get together or just a vibe after work. Will definitely be going back when I’m over east.“

“Great fish and chips and Irish stew. Always a fun, lively atmosphere. A little known nugget- they have a free parking lot behind! 🍀🇮🇪“

“Great Dive bar- .50 cent pool tables- cheap drinks and good eats - locals hangout-“

“haven't been there for quite a while but when I used to go which was not that long ago I enjoyed it a lot it's a small quaint bar with you can have machines you can have darts you can and it's fun fun nice people they only have a small menu but the hot dogs are good homemade soups which are delicious“

“Awesome establishment. Great food and drinks!!“

“The atmosphere was fun, the band really excellent, capturing well the 80's - 90's spirit of the music they were playing. It was really crowded - demonstrating the place's popularity. They were a little understaffed - hard to order drinks or food - but still good atmosphere and ambiance“

“We live right around the corner and drive past this place constantly. We've lived in Parkville for five years and came here for a Bluey brunch sometime last summer with our toddler. We decided to try the actual restaurant part tonight for dinner. The food was outstanding and our waiter was attentive and very friendly. Very lively, festive atmosphere, but my one complaint is, MAN, was it loud in there. My daughter spent the first 10 minutes after we got there holding her ears because it was so noisy. But I guess that's to be expected from one of the most popular local restaurants in town. Will most definitely be back!“

“Bmore lounge. Is fun fun fun karaoke on tues is when i go i love it“

“Have been going to Firehouse for years. Had Kerri (hope the name is spelled right) for our server. Have always had great service, but she was the best server yet. Everything was great, food and service. Thank you! Great job ?“

“Best wings hands down! and the crowd is cool and mature.“

“Best Burger I've ever had!“

“Best Kenyan Nyama Choma (Grilled Meat) on the east coast hands down. So we all love a good hole in the wall eatery and thats definitely the vibe here. Covid killed the traffic into this place but that's fine cuz there's less of a wait. THE FOOD IS AMAZING!!! Simple menu but sooo good. The ambiance is lacking but my eyes were closed as I capture the flavour of the food in every bite so it didn't matter. I meet the owner and he was so nice, inviting and extremely accommodating. Take away is also always an option. If your contemplating getting food from here just stop reading reviews and place your order now, then thank me later. This man knows his craft. Things to remember: at the moment its cash only and since your getting real authentic african style grilled meat there will be a wait but it will be worth every second. Your Welcome.“

“This place is our go to every Monday and Friday night they have great specials and the regulars are fun, the bartenders are attentive and conversational. My group and my gf feel comfortable and safe here. It’s the perfect hole in the wall.“

“Downtown location is excellent. Food is great at both locations. Service at Owings Mills location was the worst I have ever experienced. Go Downtown. Owings Mills service was dreadful. It wasn't crowded. Just really bad service. Worst service.“

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Citron Baltimore while celebrating a friend’s birthday! The owner, Charles, and his wife were incredibly nice and friendly, making us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. Their hospitality truly set the tone for a memorable evening. The food was nothing short of amazing—every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was incredible, with a perfect blend of elegance and warmth that made the celebration extra special. Highly recommend this gem of a spot—can’t wait to come back!“

“It took a little bit to get seated but the food was AMAZING, the staff was AMAZING, the manager took her time to train her staff and had a good laugh with me when I acted like a wine ‘connoisseur ’ lol I could not have one complaint. Everything was delicious, and the atmosphere was welcoming.“

“This story is worth sharing. Our Lax team had a tournament in Baltimore, Md this weekend. We stayed at a Holiday Inn that so happened to have a Chili’s Restaurant attached. Our crew wound up at the Chili’s for dinner yesterday evening and met an AMAZING server named Bobby. Our boys raved about Bobby’s service, and invited him to their Sunday…9am…90 degree game. Well, Bobby showed up at their game, with his big personality and smile. He wound up leaving such a great impression on the boys, coaches, and parents that he was part of our team for the day! He complimented the parents on our boys manners and said he wouldn’t miss their game for anything. Despite loosing 1 game and winning another, Bobby was the winner here today! Chili’s Restaurant has a fabulous employee, and Jersey Express 26’ team has a new buddy! I call that a win in my book all day long!“

“Great fun atmosphere to watch the sun go down and watch football! Pickle whiskey mule for the win!“

“Yesterday, I had a 'surprise" 25th wedding anniversary party for my daughter-and son-in-law. It was amazing. Everyone raved about the food. We used a "happy hour" set-up. The private room was set up perfectly. Michael and Kayleigh were attentive to any request of our guests. . The food was superb. The display was appealing to the eye. Everyone had so much fun. I highly recommend Casa Mia's for a casual dinner or a catered party. I thanks to Leah and Mark for all of their in the planning and on the day of the party. Casa Mia's made this a celebration to remember.“

“Great shrimp, fries and drinks. Lovely people“

“The staff was polite and the food came out very fast. There’s a lot of options on the build your own taco paper and they will also accommodate you if you don’t want any ingredient listed. Plus if it hadn’t been raining they have an outdoor covered seating area. It was just raining pretty bad when I visited.“

“My family went to Hightopps tonight for a small memorial for my uncle. The food was delicious, our waitress Bree was great, the general manager, Kirk, was one of my uncles best friends, thank you for your kindness! I never met the owner but I can tell he is an excellent person. Thank you to all of my uncles friends that cared so much for him & for Hightopps wonderful service and kindness as well. I give this place a 10 out of 10. It reminds me a little like Seacrets in OC. Love the atmosphere and outside is so pretty.“
