“A great place to eat, drink and be with friends“

“Love Conrad’s. Have never had a bad meal there. Service is always good. My husband and I were there tonight for the crab feast Monday, crabs were delicious.“

“Went for lunch today for the first time. Sat at high top in bar area. The atmosphere is great. Classy but slightly industrial which makes a great mix. Collin & Bridget waited on us and they were very attentive and we waited for nothing! Top tier service! Will definitely return soon.“

“Went to the Rosedale location yesterday. My friend had never been, so I was excited to show her this place. We both got the AYCE special, which is ridiculously cheap for all the food you get! John was our server and he was fantastic! Friendly, checked on us a lot and actually demonstrated to us how to eat a crawfish! We will definitely request him when we go back! Great food, great atmosphere and great service!“

“Latitude is my favorite restaurant ever.everyone is so nice and very friendly even the manager comes out to check on you.the food is absolutely amazing and the prices are decent.i love coming here they never let me down!“

“We always have an amazing experience at Libs. My son has a very hard time with eating and they NEVER let him leave hungry. Even when I insist “it’s fine” they refuse to settle for anything less than perfect! I was initially nervous to bring him there because of what an upscale place it is, but they prove that upscale doesn’t have to lose that family aspect. Now, I don’t know if I’ve just been fortunate to be around really well behaved kids when I go there, or if their behavior is reflective of the amazing service provided, as staff always treats my kids with respect, speaking to them like they belong there. Tonight my son left with a full belly and a big smile because Mr. Derek “was so nice!” for making him feel seen as a valued customer and not a needy kid with a medical issue. And even when I go without kids, Libs delivers for the perfect date night vibe. I love a restaurant that can do both! The food is spectacular, the ambiance on point and the service especially top of the line. I will sing their praises to anyone that will listen!“

“Got a 1/2 bushel for a friend's birthday and they were absolutely fantastic crabs! They were heavy, full of meat, and a lot of flavor. I'll definitely be using this establishment when I get a taste for crabs moving forward. To top it off, the price was quite reasonable! Thank you.“

“Absolutely delicious. Shrimp salad is so yummy.“

“1st time ordering from Richard's and the steamed crabs were awesome“

“Great food, great service, great atmosphere!! We just love Brooke and terry 🥰 so outgoing and friendly and very attentive. This is our go to place, support your local business and your neighborhood restaurant, you wont be disappointed.“

“Mr Ed's is so awesome! His crabs are amazing and delicious. We ordered a bushel of Med yesterday and they were full and seasoned to perfection. He even cooks the corn we drop off too! We always ask first of course. We've ordered from him twice this season and he nailed it both times. Highly recommend Mr Ed's. (picture is blurry but look at them crabs!)“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent food. The Cajun Fried Rice is maybe the best I’ve ever had, with plenty of huge shrimp. The rest of the menu is great too! I like to get shrimp “Juicy, Hot”. 🤤“

“10/10! We had our annual work crab get together today, we were so impressed! Service was excellent, crabs were heavy and SO tasty, and the food was excellent. After 2 years of not great experiences at other crab restaurants we have definitely found our new spot! Thank you for being so accommodating to our group!“

“I have been going here since I was a kid. Their steamed shrimp and crabs are both amazing. Every time I come.back east I make sure I go here for dinner one night during the trip as the seafood we have out in Colorado does not hold a candle to what they have in Maryland but especially here. My grandmother who passed 2.5 years ago would always say how much she missed going here and it is a shame she never had a chance to come back here after she moved with us to Colorado.“

“The staff at Crazy Tuna are fabulous and highly recommend. I urge anyone interested in a good restaurant to make an offer to buy it and keep the place open“

“Thursday evening was my first time there. We made a reservation and were seated right away. We were there for steamed crabs. Our server immediately put our order in and brought our drinks. Our crabs came out pretty quickly. I can’t say enough about the two ladies that were serving us. They were very attentive but not to the extreme. Both were very friendly. Our crabs were excellent! Not one light crab. We will definitely go back again. If you’re looking for great food, excellent service and a very friendly atmosphere, Bird River Inn is your place to go. Their food prices are very reasonable and the portions are huge!“

“Atmosphere, service, and food: A+. Ordered the gnocchi crab dish and the first bite prompted a reflexive "oh my god" of delight.“

“Came to skipjacks to eat crabs. Crabs were great as usual. Also ordered the pound of steam shrimp. They were also good...just not impressed with not getting the full pound because they come with potatoes and onions. Our server Libby was amazing. She took excellent care of us! Ask for her if you go! The place is cold so dress warm.“

“Y'all asked us to try it... We went and was blown away by this dish at Pisces Crabs LLC Seafood Takeout.. Stuffed Potato w/ Salmon, Crabmeat, Shrimp and Broccoli drizzled with a special sauce. The overall experience was great, I was greeted by the cashier with a warm and friendly smile. The place was very clean, safe and inviting. I would love to return and try more. They have been Officially Stamped By A.i. #StampedAndApproved #stampedbyai #stampedofficial“

“Swung in for the Snow Crab deal, to find that not only was it all you can eat snow crab, but included steamed shrimp, corn on the cob and fries or hish puppies! awesome deal, personable.service at both bar and dining area. Will be back!“

“The atmosphere was clean and a good vibe. Our waiter was magnificent. The food however, I had steam broccoli that I couldn't bite into. The waiter took it back and brought out more but that broccoli was just chopped still the same toughness. We order a steam bowl it was season at all. The mix drinks were strong but tasteless. I order a peach drink and no hint of peach was in it at all. The water by far was the best ??“

“Amazing. the wait staff was very attentive and very friendly. kitchen staff was on point with everything we ordered. everything was perfectly cooked and tasted fantastic. The cocktails were great too. Can not recommend enough.“

“Stopped in for dinner this evening.
Great menu choices and cozy environment.
Food was delish. Steak and Shrimp sub was the best ever
Cooked just as requested.
Referred there by a Friend of mine at the Amish Market in Joppatowne, he could not have been more on point. What an amazing experience. Sharon, the Waitress was outstanding.
Five stars and beyond, will definitely return.“

“Very friendly staff and great food!“

“We haven't been here since it was sold. The place is beautiful! The food was excellent and our waitress, Holly was the bomb diggity!!! We had the CRAB COW BERGER and it was the best burger we ever . Moist beef and the crab cake with crab imperial was divine. The fries were cooked perfect, nice and crunchy but just as soft on the inside. They were NOT coated! Prices were very reasonable. When you get food like this, you don't mind what it costs as long as it is great. Again, ask for Holly to be your waitress. The best server we have had in a long time. Professional but down to earth and she was on top of everything. We went to celebrate our birthday's. Holly even sang when she brought our cake out! What a FANTASTIK time we had. Please go and enjoy the staff and food... you won't be disappointed!!! Thanks for everything Holly!“

“Our food was excellent and service was outstanding. Dawn was our waitress, It has been a long time since we had a waitress that earned her tip. Dawn took our order, served our order, check on us several times while dining, and finally gave us our check. Most waitress now take your order and give you your check and want a 20% tip.“

“This place is nice. Owners are very nice. Upgraded a lot and atmosphere is very welcoming. I have a complaint about the bartender Dar or Darcy something they call her. Never smiles Comes to you and look at you but don’t ask what can I get you. She waits for you to say something. Acts like she don’t want to be there. Does not know how to make mixed drinks and gets an attitude when you ask. She is bad for business. She waits on who she choose to wait on. I have heard a few people complain about her. You’re doing a fine job don’t let one bad seed ruin it. Put a ad in the paper or advertisement looking for customer oriented bartenders. She not it“

“It's definitely one of the top sushi spots in Harford County. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but once you go inside, the decor and atmosphere are quite nice. They offer sushi, hibachi, and also, beer, wine, and sake. They had a 2 or 3 roll special when my wife and I dined. The special didn't include all the rolls on the menu, but it includes the majority. We ordered miso soup, seaweed salad, and a 3 roll special. We chose the Good time Roll, the Tiffany Roll, and the Mexican Roll. They were well made and delicious! Nice presentation as well. For dessert, we ordered fried ice cream. It was a tempora coated scoop of vanilla. Delicious! Service staff was great! We will be back.“

“My family took me to Basta Pasta for my Birthday yesterday. We had Sophia as our server. I’d like to acknowledge how amazing she was. Our glasses stayed full, bread flowing and food was excellent. Thank you Sophia for making my Birthday lunch perfect. 🙋🏼‍♀️“

Vegetarian options: I believe so

Kid-friendliness: Sure

“Food is amazing service was fast ! I HIGHLY recommend ! So glad this place came to Bel Air !“

“Food has always been delicious. Our server Tiffany was wonderful. The grilled chicken with cheese LT and fries was very reasonable and tasty at $15. Unfortunately our app of Mozzarella Kabobs was quite small. Two skewers with 8 quarter size pieces for $12 was very over priced. Suggestion either increase the quantity of the app or please lower the price. Definitely will not order that again.“

“I was out running errands and instead of going for fast food or other popular restaurants, I went to this bar because they had corned beef and cabbage on St Patrick's day which was awesome so I tried their spaghetti and meat sauce. It took a while to get waited on, food was was good. The sides they listed on menu board were extra cost and do not come with your meal which I thought was odd. They didn't have any parmesan cheese for my meal which I missed having. They have plenty of tv's to watch the O's. Pool tables,shuffleboard, several beers on tap. I will go back because I try to support local bussinesses. I think I caught them on an off day thus the reason I gave 4 stars.“

“Had brunch there this morning and it was super yummy. The only complaint is that the bar chairs are not comfortable. I was in jeans and I was constantly sliding forward. I used my feet to push me back on and hold me there; I shouldn’t have to engage my muscles to sit in a bar chair. Other than that, it was great. Good food, good service, and good bartenders.“

“Our favorite place! Staff is like family (Dana is amazing), food is outstanding, and even a private room for events. Highly recommend.“

“We have lived nearby for 10+ years and have had many many meals here and have never been disappointed with our food nor with our experience. Highly recommend“

“I’ve been a fan of Pat’s forever! Tonight. I ordered a simple Pepperoni Pizza (well done) & an order of fries for take out! The order was ready when promised, the girls behind the counter were attentive & friendly, and the best part….my pizza was perfectly well done! This is exciting because no matter where I get pizza & well done does not always equal well done! Good job Pat’s! I’ll be back😊“

“They have a lot of good food to choose from, my favorite is the curry goat. Make sure to leave with a menu, so you can choose“

“we love our Chisty, and the new York strip of course“

“We got a dozen of large males on the 4th of July from the German Hill Rd location. We only knew about the BQ location up until yesterday! They were so good, meaty and delicious & not one bad crab. Fast service especially on the 4th!“

“Definitely call ahead to order because they get very busy at times, especially at night. Great food for a great price I got the #6 2 pc catfish combo and fries for 8.99. the box was filled with fries on the bottom, and the catfish pieces were very big, it was almost like you were eating 4 pieces from another restaurant. The fried chicken is also pretty good too, 11.99 was how much it cost for 8 pieces and it was cooked well. Would recommend to anyone looking for a cheap but good restaurant to eat at.“

“Best shrimp salad!!! You can purchase by the pound. Nice option for those of us watching carbs“

“Funny time, Sam is a great bartender!! We have a pool league there and she takes care all of us!!“

“Local folks enjoying time with friends… The bartenders are very nice and the weekly specials are great!“

“I ordered the catfish nugget/ chicken wing combo, which came with fries. Additionally, I ordered a single piece of fish, and they generously gave me extra fries, which made me quite happy. I was a bit apprehensive since I ordered late in the day and food quality can be iffy when restaurants are closing. However, to my surprise, everything was incredibly fresh and delicious! This location really impressed me, and I'm looking forward to visiting again soon.“
