The food, the ambience, the service were all truly outstanding. This was our first visit but, most certainly, will not be our last. It was a veritable culinary experience.

First time visit and loved it. Service, food, atmosphere was excellent! did the 3 course meal which was plenty. Portions just the right size. highly recommend for special occasions. will become a routine stop when we visit the St Michaels area
Brooke
Fantastic dining experience from start to finish! Service was excellent and the food was unlike anything else found in the area, delicious to the last bite!

What can I say? Bas Rouge just never disappoints. The professional staff, elegant decor, food and wine knowledge is just tops. The quality and sophistication of the food I think rivals NY and other major cities I have visited. If this restaurant was in NY, they'd be fully booked, always.

Bas Rouge is exceptional!!! Def a top shelf restaurant, from the personal greeting at the door through the unbelievable desserts that are like artwork. The food is amazing and executed to perfection. The staff is super with attention to every detail while you are there. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed the entire experience. It is easy to see why it is a James Beard award winner. Plan ahead, they booked.

The space is elegant and every detail is beautifully appointed. We were immediately welcomed and the service was consistently impeccable, down to the little stool that was offered for my purse. We had the chef’s tasting with accompanying wines, and it was one of the best meals we have ever had anywhere in the world. Cannot recommend more highly.

Overall, this was a great experience. Food was seasonably and locally delicious, in particular the Crab Cake Wellington was outstanding. Sweetbread starter was perfectly done. Crab and tomato starter was a unique and fun interpretation. Excellent cocktails, great wine list and world class spirit offerings. Dessert offerings were thoughtful closers. Service was refined and attentive, albeit a bit formal, which ultimately feels less exciting and personable. We were treated very well, and all servers were kind. Dining space is traditional, beautifully decorated and mirrors harken French ambience. Bar is unimposing and stately. A bit of whimsy may produce a more thematic or memorable atmosphere. Overall, Bas Rouge felt like a throwback to what one thinks of as “fine dining.” We admittedly indulged with wine and spirits, however, for over $700 for a two top, we hoped for a more personal/memorable experience, but enjoyed ourselves and recommend for a special occasion on the Eastern Shore.

We tried the chef's tasting with wine pairing and it was one of the best meals we've ever had.

Perfect. Food, perfect. Wine list and wine service, perfect. The room, the scale, the setting, perfect. Service double perfect.
My husband and I went for our 25th anniversary and we could not have been happier! From the beautifully prepared and served food to the attentive waitstaff. A wonderful experience all around. We were presented with a lovely Dessert for our Anniversary! Highly recommend, worth the price. Don't miss the pear dessert, possibly the most beautiful dish I have ever seen!

Absolutely SPECTACULAR! I know the chef has a James Beard award but Bas Rouge deserves a Michelin star!!! It is always a treat to dine at Bas Rouge. Thank you for never disappointing us with your amazing food, service, ambience, and overall experience. Tip top!!!!

Everything was exquisite. The greeting and seating, the tableware and stemware, the decor and ambience, the service and sommelier. And of course the food and wine. Their dessert chef is a genius.

Bas Rouge exceeded our expectations, which is delightful. Everything was close to perfect, and my one comment is that service seemed a bit rushed, given the cost and attention to all other details. The wine pairings were divine and unusual. The crab and tomato appetizer featuring tomato water was unique and delicious. Desserts were wonderful.

What a lovely experience. The wait people were fantastic- very attentive, but not smothering and not snooty. The food was great. We were there for lunch so it's not humongous portions. But you wouldn't expect that. so glad we went.
