    Fabulous meal. Best prime rib I EVER had. Rockfish was very moist with crunchy skin. Sides were as good as the mains. Good service. Food came was promptly and runner did great job explaining everything. This is 5 stars all the way.

    Wanted to try out Wye Oak Tavern so went for out anniversary dinner. Overall experience was good and really enjoyed the food (it is meat focused). We sat at the bar for a cocktail as we arrived a few minutes early. Bartenders were great as they spotted us, greeted us, could describe drinks, and attentive. The restaurant wasn't full and regardless is gets very loud. Two things I would note; 1.) we marked on our reservation that this was a special occasion but there was no mention of that by staff (as does happen with most restaurants0, and 2.) ordered a decent bottle of wine however the bottle brought to the table (2022) did not match the year on the menu (2019) and most restaurants will note that before corking and pouring. This is a relatively new place so I expect they will work out the small kinks.

    A splurge but worth it in my opinion. Everyone in our party of four liked what they had. Oysters and prime rib were special favorites. Appetizers were a little slow to come out but after that service was very proper.

    The venue is interesting. Service was very slow. They forgot my starter although they eventually delivered it and did take it off the check. My husband‘s salmon dish was lukewarm. The noise level is very high. The dining room is packed, but the service and food seemed to be suffering some growing pains.

    Overpriced and the food was mediocre. Find someplace else to go.

    Excellent meal, beautiful location. A little too loud inside. Will definitely come back but maybe earlier in the evening before it’s too crowded.

    Service was excellent! Food was delicious! Cocktails were on the small side but the Yacht Rock was delicious. We will return but due to cost, it won’t be a monthly visit.
