This place... sucks. Been trying it out 4-5 times over few yrs/months. The workers and how the place looks is amazing though!! Just- so the brunch menu changed and it's worse now lol. For a brunch menu it lacks waffles (only one option) or pancakes, and doesn't cater much towards kids/families. The food is just all mixed with other stuff that they are trying too hard it's missing the simple things like a caesar salad. Food is just okay for how fancy and priced these items are, but I could definitely go to a cheaper place with better food. read more

I have been going to the Tavern for many years and was delighted to meet two friends for a casual dinner at a place that feels like the neighborhood hangout. The space is open and fun with lots of seating options. I ordered the veggie burger; it is in the top three veggie burgers I have had in Baltimore (and I have eaten a lot!). The burger is homemade by a local who uses natural and hearty ingredients. The bun and sauce were the perfect highlight combo. My friends had the poke bowls and a side of delicious fries. Our beer and wine pairings complemented the meal. Service was impeccable-we love you Erin! I am already looking forward to going back. read more

Wednesday a little after 4 pm, we hit happy hour and the prime rib special. Outstanding! Not very crowded but pretty noisy. Much of the noise was coming from the staff employees. Sitting at the bar, the service was fine and friendly. Prime rib (18oz) was cooked, medium rare to perfection. Happy hour oysters were fat and juicy. Select beers were happy hour discounted. This outing could not have been much better. read more

If the multiple cockroaches didn't climb the wall at the end of our evening I'd give more stars..... Staff were kind but not super attentive. We ordered oysters to start but they never arrived. Our meals arrived and they were fine. Overall nice evening until multiple cockroaches began climbing the wall next to our table. That was gross. A kitchen staff member suggested moving tables but we were finished our meals. He gave us a 50% discount which was unexpected and appreciated. read more

Mt. Washington Tavern - Tavern food - American Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I Was just here this past weekend and absolutely LOVED IT! We were seated immediately at the bar and met Jason, one of the amazing bartenders working. You can really tell how much he loves his job and interacting with the customers! Glen was the other bartender working that night and he was so sweet. He even made my mom and I these cute little roses! Dylan was also a very kind worker. We are not from the Baltimore area so he told us about where to park and all of that fun stuff. Every worker here we encountered were so nice! I could go on and on about the amazing service but let's talk food and drinks: I highly recommend getting cocktails while you're here because the bartenders know what they're doing. The cocojito and espresso martinis were a hit! They also can do crushes. I got the orange one and they squeeze the fruits right at the bar so it's Very fresh! We ordered the fried green tomatoes as an appetizer. I was skeptical because I've never had crab on top of fried green tomatoes before, but they were delicious! My mom and I split a beyond burger and we really enjoyed it! My brother ordered the smash burger and my dad got the shrimp tacos. They both liked their entrees as well! Looking at the past reviews of this place I am very shocked. This is one of the best experiences I've had at a bar restaurant. Everyone was so welcoming and accepting all types of people. There was a very diverse crowd when we went and everyone was enjoying themselves. I highly recommend to come to this spot if you're in the area. read more

We had a celebration luncheon there December 30th (for about 20 people- including adults and children). We were BEYOND pleased with our experience from start to finish. It started with quick and easy communication with Mary to book it. On the day of, the service we received was exceptional! Our waitress was attentive and responsive to all our requests. She was checking in (the right amount) and made sure everyone had drinks/was served. When we arrived, the room was beautifully decorated with hanging ornaments for the holiday season. The flowers were BEAUTIFUL that we got through Holly- seriously consider using her if you're going to do an event there! We also felt spoiled that they set up a small kids table for them to be entertained with coloring and games, and separate from the main luncheon table. It was something we didn't even think of and made a huge difference in making the luncheon much more enjoyable for the adults and kids. We had pre-ordered appetizers for them to be ready to go when we arrived. The biggest hits were the grilled oysters (we got the Rockefeller and Casino ones), tuna tataki, and crab dip. The kids loved the pretzels appetizers as well. Everyone got to order off the menu for our luncheon because we had a smaller crowd. Everyone was pleased with their meal. Standouts were the scallops, crab cake sandwich, rockfish, and the Chesapeake salad. Overall, we would highly recommend considering The Mt Washington Tavern for your events! (Sadly forgot to take pictures of our food because we really were enjoying ourselves and everything we were eating.) read more

The hardest part was choosing one thing from the menu - and our server, Samantha, was excellent. I plan to ask for her in the future. Get the crab dip with the pretzel-they go together perfectly. We all loved our lunches (short rib entree, short rib grilled cheese, pork belly tacos, peach/burrata salad-get the salmon add on, and rockfish). Samantha kept our soft drinks full, cleared away something on every trip, and made our visit extra enjoyable. read more

The chili is DELICIOUS!!! My parents got the maryland crab and cream of crab soup and absolutely loved it. Patrick knocked it out of the park- I highly recommend the food and service at Mt. Washington Tavern! read more

This place has so much potential. But we came here for Thanksgiving and they were out of many items they promoted (and required a credit card for the reservation). Servers were rude when we asked very basic questions. They have a beautiful dining room and ambience- I hope they can get the food / hospitality together. read more

I got the cream of crap soup, easily the best soup I've ever had! Patrick recommended it and was on the money.

The crab soup was top notch. The service from Patrick Wesley was even better. Can't wait to go back.

Chef Ryan made me a delicious vegan salad with the freshest veggies I could hope for! Patrick was passionate and helpful, and I could tell they care about getting people the best food and service possible! read more

Patrick was such a great server! Very sociable and sweet. He guessed our entree before we even ordered.

Consistent Excellent service and server- Patrick.. He guessed our meals before we even ordered!

It had been too long! My husband and I used to go to Mt. Washington Tavern on the regular when we lived right down the street. Sadly, it had been a few years since we visited but I surprised him by taking him to brunch on Sunday. We sat at the bar and Charlie took care of us. He remembered my husband from years ago. He is super friendly and took great care of us! I started with the French toast fries which are really just French toast sticks. Whatever you call 'em, they were delicious! My husband had the crab hash and I had the chicken salad BLT wrap and upgraded to truffle fries instead of chips. The truffle fries were some of the best I have had. Everything was delicious! I had a few mimosas and my husband had bloody marys. They have bottomless for $15 which is super reasonable. I wish we were closer and could still pop in as often as we used to! read more

Not only is the quality of the food amazing, Patrick was the most comical waiter, all around a great place with family and friends!

Had lunch here with my parents today; it's a beautiful space, service was nice, & we really liked the food (Maryland crab soup and some Reubens). read more

Patrick is the absolute best! Very enthusiastic about his job and provided great service. the ambiance was great in here, would highly recommend read more

Patrick was Great! The food and atmosphere was amazing!!! we will definitely be back to celebrate again!

Amazing service and great vibes! Tierra was our server and she was excellent! Love the thin cut fries and strong Martini's!! Shannon's desserts are out of this world! read more

Solid food, good service, and it's a nice professional and clean atmosphere. Good place to watch a game with a beer and something to eat. Really really good group space too if you want to plan an event (we did a multi-family post-grad party here that went so nicely!). read more

I ate here after a meeting I had nearby. It's one of the few restaurants open at 4 pm on a weekday. I had crab cakes and $1 oysters. The oysters were good (not amazing, but good). The crab cakes were salty and were absolutely not worth the $42 (a price they don't show you in the menu, so don't assume they're priced like the other entrees!). The server was nice, but was also the bartender and was busy because of this. read more

Once upon a time, in an age long ago, I used to frequent MVT frequently (20/30s). LOL. The bar area was ALWAYS such a fun time! It has truly been 10+ years since I've been here. I simply never think of the village of Mount Wash, anymore, for some reason. Fast forward to this past weekend. Brunch was the plan but the location was u certain. After several tries, I chose MVT... and I'm glad I did. I've always loved that neighborhood and how it's nestled in the woods the way it is. It's also very artsy and the food selections in the village have never disappointed. Upon entering, it was completely nostalgic of great times, past. We were seated upstairs bc we wanted to be outside. Fun Fact: I always saw the grand steps there but never ever went up them all those years ago. Wow! I just realized that. In any event, once upstairs, it is absolutely beautiful. In fact, there was a beautiful bridal shower being held in a private room. Once we were seated on the outside deck, it was very impressive. There was a nice breeze flowing thru, a roof top that had slat openings (to close for rain, I suppose). I loved this design. Our server, Jason, was fantastic and very attentive. He had a great personality and knew the menu extensively. All the patrons loved him. He was definitely part of the fantastic experience/ ambiance of the upstairs. DINING EXPERIENCE: FIRST: BOTTOMLESS DRINKS: 1) MIMOSA: champagne, triple sec, OJ; 2) SCREWDRIVER: vodka, OJ; 3) BLOODY MARY: vodka, tavern bloody mary mix, lime wedge, olives, celery stick. I mean, how can u go wrong w/ bottomless drinks, right? The mimosas had just the right kick to them. Not too much. Not too little. SCORE!!! The screwdriver was ehhh... an average screwdriver. MEH! The Bloody Mary's were quite good. They had a bit too much pepper in them but adding a decent amount of lime juice leveled it out quite nicely. SCORE!!! So that's a SCORE, MEH, SCORE!!! For those keeping track... LOLOLOL . I would mention how many drinks we had in total, once we saw the receipt *shock face*... but let's not do that to ourselves, k?!? LMAO! SECOND: ON TO THE BRUNCH: I decided that I wanted to have a 'lil nosh'. Naturally, I opted for the: 1) BAGEL and LOX platter. I chose a toasted everything bagel that was accompanied with all the fixings: wild caught northern atlantic smoked salmon, cream cheese, capers, red onion, sliced tomato and mixed greens. The salmon was a generous portion and VERY tasty. Tasted quite fresh. One thing that I really appreciated about this dish was that it came deconstructed so I could build it the way I wanted. Many times, I've ordered this elsewhere and it all comes out together and things slip / slide all over the place. Since I could build it myself, nothing slipped. This may become my go-to dish here. Overall... PERFECT! SCORE!!! 2) I also had a side of scrambled eggs w/ cheese. Delicious, fluffy, good portion size. All I added were capers & black pepper. Overall Perfect! SCORE!!! 3) Based on our server's recommendation, my dining companion opted for the FRENCH TOAST FRIES: thick cut sticks, cinnamon, egg battered, flash fried, side maple glaze dipping sauce. These lacked a serious WOW factor at all. In fact, I'm pretty sure when I've purchased frozen French toast sticks at the grocers, they pretty much looked like these. They didn't have much flavor (no hint of butter, cinnamon, nutmeg. NOTHING). They were just nicely toasted sticks of what May/May not have been brioche. Accompanying the French toast were a couple of very thinly sliced strawberries and a few blackberries. There truly should have been more fruit. Then there was a dusting of powdered sugar and a white dipping sauce that was incredibly sweet. Like it would be an AMAZING glaze for a cake, cupcake, muffin, tart (where it could soak in and coat properly). As a stand alone, it was way too sweet. It was actually replaced w/ basic syrup. It was much better that way. Overall... MEH! He also had a: 4) side of scrambled eggs w/ cheese and a 5) side of applewood bacon. Decent portions. Both were a hit, for him, as well. Overall... SCORE!!! I will DEFINITELY be back for the brunch!!! Thanks for welcoming me back, MVT. read more

Good happy hour menu including tasty dollar oysters! Our server , Joe Brady was terrific. The tavern is very cosy.

Loved the atmosphere and service! I was on the top floor for a party. And parking wasn't too bad for the area. Great cocktails and mimosas! It was a catered event and the food was pretty good, but I will be back to try the menu. read more

After not having gone here in more than a year, we were pleasantly surprised by seeing that the menu had dramatically changed. It certainly seemed an improvement while keeping some of their more popular dishes from before. Unfortunately, the kitchen continues to remain stuck in not being able to deliver meals with even reasonable taste. The bone-in chicken wings were barely seasoned. My cream of crab soup was gloppily thick; the kitchen used far too much flour. The soup was thoroughly bland, lacking in crab flavor, and no splash of sherry to liven it up. My wife's Mushroom Bourguignon was barely edible. The mushrooms had been sliced too thinly and were lost in a cloying mess of what tasted like diced canned tomatoes. Did they even begin with a simple mirepoix? I doubt it. The kitchen would be advised to grill thick-cut portabello mushrooms instead of what small pieces of mushroom were swimming around in the awful tomatoey sauce. Oh! And don't forget to add red wine because that is what any dish labeled "Bourguignon" must have! By the way, the dish did not look anything like the website picture of the dish. Having three beers and the aforementioned dishes, the bill was almost $100 with a generous gratuity because we like our server and bartender. In summary, The Tavern continues to disappoint. If you just want beer, wine, or cocktail, and have a plate of raw oysters, it'll be fine. Please do not expect much from the kitchen, however. We'd rather spend $20-30 more and dine at Le Bistro du Village or Ethyl's Creole Kitchen, where I know we will dine well. read more

Popped up here for a quick date night before the basketball game. We choose to dine outdoors. We were seated promptly. Neither of us were too hungry so we just chose to get appetizers. I chose crab dip while my man chose nachos. It was more than enough to share both. Neither disappointed. I also had a margarita which might I add was very good. He had a beer. I can't remember the name of it but, the waiter said it was similar to blue moon. We can't wait to return and try other things on the menu and maybe dine inside next time. read more

got some amazing crab soup from there!! Highly recommend the Maryland cream of crab soup mix!

I went on a Thursday and they have oysters for free 4-6 pm for happy hour and they were very fresh. They have a guy that chucks them right in front of you and puts them on ice. They also have toppings on ice. I got the crab dip with pretzels. The pretzels had a lot of salt but you could remove it. The crab dip had some jumbo chunks of crab in in and some crab mixed it it had a good flavor. We had the grilled cheese but it had American cheese and goat cheese. The goat cheese was over baring. It had bacon and tomato's on it. Not my favorite. I didn't like my prime rib quesadilla. I was able to send it back for the Hawaiian shrimp tacos. They were really good. The waiter was pretty nice and attentive. The ambiance was very nice. Chill and quick service. The drinks were nice size and hit the spot. read more

This is about my 4th or 5th time here and I am always pleased with the food! Honestly, everything is good. They have steak tacos so yummy, the half/half Maryland Crab and chowder you always wanna take a second bowl home, and the BBQ flatbread so darn yummy!! The cocktails made fresh are tasty as well as the fresh (CLEAN) raw oysters. Although, the wait today for food and service was a little bit much . Especially bc the place just opened and was almost empty. Then the food comes and I have yet to have a water refill and I've been waiting for 20 minutes to simply ask for the check and to go boxes Maybe the waiting staff is tired but now I am readdyyyyyy to go .... The waitress name is I believe Mandy and it saddened me that she was not as welcoming/inviting or attentive as the many we have had before. But hey I'll still eat here ... read more

The Mt Mount Washington Tavern has great atmosphere and good food. I got the shrimp salad wrap with chips. The rest of our group either got the burger or the chicken sandwich. The guys that got the chicken sandwich raved about it. Good seevice and got to end the night listening to live music on the roof. read more

So much has changed over the years, once a staple of Mt. Washington it was very disappointing. The menu was ripped and dirty, the risotto was gummy with hints of uncooked rice interspersed, Not at all crowded on a Sat evening... read more

I've been a fan of Mt. Washington Tavern for some time. Every day the have some form ofr happy hr give a way or specialty night, from quesadillas to oysters. My fave is by far Prime Rib Night! For 16.95, you get a salad, fingerling potatoes and a huge deliciously cooked piece of prime rib to order. Can't beat that. Although I had a guest with me that ordered a cheesburger and that thing was tougher than a hockey puck. Kinda pales in comparison to what I had. :( Guess you win and lose some on the same order. I'd visit again for drinks, oysters, steam shrimp and that prime rib! read more

I usually have a decent experience here, but recently my partner and I sat at the bar for dinner and were waited on by an older white man with blonde hair who throughout the entire evening was blatantly insulting my partner and hitting on me. We don't plan on going back from now on. read more

What an awesome experience! The restaurant/tavern looks great, and the upstairs is fun and well staffed. The food was outstanding. I was out with a coworker and visited for lunch. First, let me say,, Shanny was our server,, and she was terrific, and she made our visit wonder.. We ordered the calamari as an appetizer and it was cooked perfectly. It was a huge plate full of tasty food. I ordered a Ruben sandwich with fries, and it was delicious. It was a large portion and had the right balance of all of the ingredients. My fries were crispy and the bleu cheese dressing was out of this world. My coworker had the Tavern Burger, and she ordered it cooked medium, and the Tavern staff nailed it! She also had the sweet potato fries that were tasty and crispy. As I mentioned earlier, Shanny was awesome, and a big reason I will be back! read more

I would frequent this place regularly prior to the pandemic and always had a great time and enjoyed the food. Visited again this week and hadn't been since 2019. Definitely a different experience. I went for happy hour but happy hour is only honored if you have a seat at the bar. The rear bar was full on the lower level and there was an event upstairs. Our waitress apparently was also making drinks and told us she was still learning. She was super sweet but our drinks were subpar. She was so nice we didn't complain. The food was not the best. Oysters and calamari were okay. Crab soup lacked crab meat as there were merely strands so it was comparable to vegetables with old bay in tomato sauce. Parking is always a task at the location and so that remained a challenge but ultimately this was my last visit. I've certainly had better experiences here and wish that instead of 3 stars I could have given 5. read more

Just okay. The service was warm and friendly. There was nothing special about the hamburger and fries I ordered.

The Caesar salad was good, but I disliked the wontons... they tasted fishy in my opinion.... The tavern is a nice place to hang and in a good location. Service was fair, but they do have half price bottles of wine on Fridays... read more
