    I really love this restaurant. It has great views, but the most important aspect to my experience is the staff. Every time I have visited it has always been a fantastic interaction. I have sent many of my friends there and they all have the same experience.

    This was my first time at the "new" Rye Street Tavern so I was curious to see what was new. There were some changes to the design but kept the fabulous bar. Menu was varied enough for many tastes. My dinner companion and I shared the Rockfish and Steak Frites. Both were very good. The one comment about the steak - we ordered it medium rare and it came to us VERY rare. We ate it but other diners might be put off by the under cooking. It was, however, delicious. Our server was excellent. The noise level is ridiculously loud in the bar. We ate in the upstairs dining room which was ok except we were by the door to the service hall and witnessed two crashes because the wait staff were rushing like crazy. Overall, it was a good experience, and we'll likely return in the warmer weather to try it al fresco.

    My wife along with myself and another couple just ate there on 3/15/25. We all mentioned how impressed we were with the vibe, and the restaurants interior. The Port Covington area and the Under Armor facility are very well planned out. But, getting back to Rye Street Tavern. Our waitress was attentive, and helpful in helping us with our choices. Everything was served hot, and the portions were plentiful. We all enjoyed our meals, and even ordered desserts to share. The prices for our food was reasonable and that included even getting two adult beverages. I know I’m looking forward to returning in the future.
