    Deliciously Decadent Tomahawk Steak
    Holly L.

    Absolutely delicious from start to finish. Server was knowledgeable and friendly. The restaurants facelift from its previous days as Bay Wolf was much needed. Now it is and aesthetically pleasing.

    Appetizer - nachos! Came out after over 20 minutes with "fake" cheese on the nachos! At least we could is real cheese, please! Ran out of alcohol for their specialty drink and had to go get more alcohol. Very disappointed.

    Harvest pasta was so flavorful, you can add proteins if you want

    Found this quaint place, once a church, restaurant. We had reservations about going because the limited reviews on it. The flavor of the food we received was amazing! the waitress was so sweet and real. What a gem ! We ll be back asap. You can call ahead for certain meals such as lobster and tomahawk steaks. All of it fresh ! Enjoy!

    Food was good. It took a bit to get the order for a table of five out of the kitchen.. The service was fine and atmosphere was upbeat.

    Friday evening, we arrived for a later dinner and we were immediately greeted by the hostess and…read morewere seated within a few minutes. We started with the flavorful and lightly crispy Thai chicken tenders. We will order these again! My husband ordered the prime rib, of which I had a taste, and it was delicious! I ordered the crab cake dinner and it was tasty. We enjoyed the nice choice of rice or 3 kinds of potato. We did decide to splurge with dessert. The flourless chocolate cake was so yummy and my husband's bread pudding smelled, and apparently tasted, just like fall. It is not your traditional bread pudding, but a wonderful dessert nonetheless. The restaurant is nicely decorated for this Chesapeake Bay community. It can get quite lively and while there are acoustic tiles on the ceiling, it was hard to talk until the dining room was only about half full.

Our last few visits have been disappointing. They took the oyster po boy off the menu (one of our favorites!) and the portions have gotten smaller, not as tasty and pricier. Must also mention that the hostess - face of the establishment, should try to smile. I appreciate it must be difficult to deal with hungry patrons for hours, but still..

    The Retriever Oyster House in Chestertown left us with a mixed impression, one that deserves a fair…read moreand constructive take. We had just come from a college football game and, on the fly, decided to grab dinner here based on the recommendation of the one local in our group. There were seven of us, and most went for the double smash burgers with fries, which were excellent. Kim, our server, was outstanding, prompt, accurate, and attentive throughout the evening. The bartender also added to the positive side of the experience, making sure everything at the table ran smoothly. The issue came at the door. We had tried to call ahead to let them know we were on the way, not realizing that OpenTable was their preferred system. When we arrived, the host made this clear, but in a way that was unnecessarily sharp and cold. It set the wrong tone for the night. In a town where friendliness is the norm, the contrast was striking. The experience began under a haze that was difficult to shake, even though the food and drinks were excellent once we sat down. To be constructive, this is less about policy and more about hospitality. A host sets the tone, and a welcoming explanation could have changed everything. Something as simple as, "We usually use OpenTable to handle groups this size, but I'm glad you're here, let's get you taken care of," would have gone a long way. Instead of frustration, it could have created a positive first impression and likely earned a loyal group of returning guests for years to come. Inside, the atmosphere was lively, with locals enjoying themselves in a loud and fun environment. Our group of longtime friends who have been convening in Chestertown for two decades fit right in once we were seated. However, the bad first impression lingered, and as a result we only had one round with food before deciding to leave a lot earlier than our normal rhythm for an evening out. We ended up taking our bar bill to another venue. Great food and excellent table service carried the night, but the host made sure we will not be returning as part of our annual tradition. This is a restaurant with strong potential, and it could go from good to exceptional with just a little more attention to how guests are greeted.

    This was a fun place. We came visiting friends while in town for the Tea Party weekend, so they get…read morea little pass for being busy. I'm not sure the menu was all that imaginative, but the food was good and we enjoyed some oysters, onion dip, and I had the chicken sandwich. Our waiter was very attentive. The only thing I may add is to think about better flexibility on seating. It's a very large bar but the sit down area isn't greatly configurable. We'd put in for a group of 6 but it was not possible for them to seat us all at one table.
