    Plastic cup for inside dining.
    Tim T.

    09.13.25 My wife and I decided to head to Ketch 22 for an early dinner. When we pulled into the parking lot, it was completely packed, which worried me since I didn't think we'd need a reservation before 5 p.m. To my surprise, when we walked in the restaurant was only partially filled, and the bar area was empty, so we took seats there so we could also watch the college football games that were on the tvs. The bartender explained that she had noticed the same thing when she arrived -- the lot was full, but it turned out there was a wedding reception scheduled next door later in the evening. We already knew what we wanted before we left home: the pork tacos, which are a favorite of ours. My wife ordered hers with cucumber salad, while I went with the fresh-cut fries. Both dishes came out just as good as always -- flavorful, fresh, and consistent. Between the quality of the food, the relaxed atmosphere, and even some live music outside, it made for another enjoyable visit. We'll definitely be back.

    Great view, great service and great food, what more can you ask for on a Saturday afternoon. This spot is located inside of a resort, however you don't have to be a guest to enjoy the good eats. Let me start by saying the server was very attentive and knowledgeable. I started off with an orange crush, which was tasty. Then followed up with a crab cake entree with rice and Caesar salad which was all tasty. I do think the price was a bit high for the platter--I feel like the cakes could've been a bit larger I would recommend the platter if don't mind paying $59 for it, however it can be a meal for 2 if you make it.

    An excellent place to dine. Love the area, atmosphere and ambiance. Food was delicious with perfect and generous portions. Our server was attentive and kind.

    Chesapeake Sticky Wings
    Danita W.

    The customer service was great! Love the location as you can look out to see Chesapeake Bay. For the time of day, we ordered appetizers Deviled eggs and wings. They were delicious, well seasoned, and plenty for more than 2 people. For entrees, we ordered them the Ketchch 22 speciality burger and Rock fish nuggets and salad. Will visit again

    Quite frankly, the atmosphere made this place worth coming to. We will go back. However, our shrimp was overdone, the crab quesadilla had about 2 teaspoons (not tablespoons) worth of crab sandwiched between an extremely flat (thin) and tasteless cheese. It was the smallest quesadilla I've ever seen. My husband got the pork tacos, which he thought were also overdone. It could've been that it was a very busy day, but flavor wise it was exactly what you would expect. The service was good. Our appetizer (quesadilla) came out after our food.

    Ahi Tuna Tacos
    Deb W.

    Ketch 22 was a go to for water side dining. We were quickly served and attended to like we were the only patrons in the restaurant. I had an appetite for light fare so I went for crab dip, Ahi Tuna Taco and a side of cucumber salad, which I loved by the way. So much so the manager Andrea gave me the recipe (sometimes it's the little things). My waitress Emily K was on point with her other menu suggestions and responsiveness. Food, service and ambiance was definitely a 10! We referred family there and they had the same experience! Can't wait to get back!

    Hairy tuna

    Hoping to celebrate my birthday today with an enjoyable meal at Ketch 22. Unfortunately after eating just a portion of the ahi tuna salad I was met with a black hair! I informed my server who gave me an apologetic sorry darlin. I was offered another salad but as I was revolted I opted out

    Cheers Babe - Sunday Funday
    Nessa R.

    My perfect foodie bestie and I always get into something cool on the weekends. He knows I love the water so to end our weekend with a bang, he brought me to Ketch 22 for Sunday Funday! Oh North Beach, what a gem! Cute neighborhood spot, people had their boats docked, and were literally coming just to dine off their boats. We got an outside table, people near us were cool. We started off with deviled eggs, they were yummy! Had bacon on top. Good! Crabcake sandwiches hit the mark, comparable to some of Marylands finest I've had! We had cocktails because on Sunday we have Funday and what's a Funday Without a drink. We crushed a lot of crushes! The Yelp Verdict, come try! You won't be disappointed. Service was stellar and the employees were sweet!

    I use the term "Catch 22" all the time so when I saw this restaurant use that play on words we had to try it out! Sitting smack on the water in North Beach, what a cool chill vibe on a warm Sunday afternoon. Just 35min from the crib, Ketch 22 was well worth the drive. The menu is pretty standard for waterfront restaurants in Maryland so we both chose the jumbo lump crab cakes. They were delicious.. All meat and very little filler. The bacon topped deviled eggs were just as delicious. Service was outstanding and the patrons were super friendly. I'm re-discovering North Beach/Chesapeake Beach. Eventhough I loved everything about this place, I have to try other restaurants before I come back which is the proverbial "Ketch 22"..lol

    Friendly service, nice community venue, fresh food, layered flavors of sweet and tangy and spicy. Comfortable bar area. Adequate dining space.

    Stopped in for a quick drink before a rehearsal dinner on a Friday evening! The interior is clean and the bathrooms were tidy. I liked the outside bar you have a wonderful view and there is both indoor and outdoor dining areas. While I only tried to drinks, the food looked amazing. My friends ordered the fried pickles and they relayed that the pickles may have been cut too large. The service here was awesome. Multiple outside bartenders and many of them helped when our friend passed out from the heat. They were calm and followed policy which I appreciated! I definitely recommend Ketch 22!

We were very excited to try new menu items and the famous gimlet. Service was great, our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. The food and drinks were good, our favorite avocado tacos did not disappoint! What made our experience go from good to bad quickly was what seemed to be the chef coming to our table reeking of cigarettes and alcohol and proceeding to hover over us for what felt like an inappropriately long time.

The few servers moved slowly and although they passed near our table on several occasions, none had the courtesy to even tell us, "Someone will be with you shortly" or something. Thankfully, the runner who seated us, (a kind and helpful gentlemen who got a separate tip) noticed and got Daniel to visit our table. My gin martini was excellent and the water was cold. We ordered several plates, which arrived rather quickly. The homemade hummus with the carrots and pickled onions was fantastic. We'd take creamy and delicious hummus like that any day. The deviled eggs were wonderful and came with an extra kick thanks to the jalapeno. Gnocchi with parmesan, carrots, and asparagus was creamy, comforting, and filling. The lamb over hummus, with their rich homemade gravy, rivaled any amazing lamb dish I had anywhere. The portions were phenomenal. I have been to places that give half as much with the same prices. The chef and kitchen staff are incredible. We'll definitely return to try new dishes but we hope the service is much improved.

I've been multiple times and genuinely have not had one thing I didn't like. The tuna melt, wings, collard greens, bowls, pastries, lattes, cocktails...everything is consistently a 9 or 10 out of 10. But what makes Mama Koko's even more special is the experience. The owners and staff are incredibly warm, down-to-earth, and welcoming. It feels like going to your mama's or auntie's house, sitting down with your cousins, eating good food, and just enjoying everything that is Black greatness. The music, art, style, culture, and energy are all part of it. They feature local artists, the soul, R&B and hip-hop are always playing, everybody is fly, and the whole space just feels GOOD.

I could tell from other conversations throughout the restaurant that the other servers were equally kind to their patrons. The decor is beautiful! I feel like I don't usually see restaurants with such a strong aesthetic in the Fulton area. I think the ambiance created by the decor definitely heightened my experience. Now, for the food. What we ordered: - Traditional Country Spinach Pie - Falafel - Spicy Lamb Beef Dip - Grilled Octopus - Grilled Salmon - Chicken Tenderloin - Athenian Shrimp The spinach pie and falafel were standard; good, but nothing to write home about. The spicy lamb dip was my party's favorite mezze. I feel that Cypriana does meats very well (especially the grilled ones). But the dishes were brought down by the sides. The grilled salmon, octopus, and chicken were all delicious! However, the red quinoa mixture tasted incredibly earthy. I did not enjoy it, but some healthier members of my party did haha. The chicken and fries was probably the best pairing (and child-approved!). Regarding the "Athenian Shrimp": Upon some research, I believe this is the restaurant's interpretation of Garides Saganaki. The restaurant served the sauce on a bed of pilaf. From my understanding, shrimp saganaki is more commonly (not exclusively) eaten as a dip with bread. Of course, there's no "wrong" way to serve anything, but the rice paired with the Athenian Shrimp was incredibly moist to the point of distraction. The sauce was very good, but I found myself eventually eating around the rice because the wet texture was so off-putting. I think the sauce would have been better paired with a pasta, pita, or baguette.
