    mini crab cakes
    Whitney B.

    Went to Baltimore for a Girls Trip and checked this place out. Our server was super friendly and attentive and the vibes of the restaurant were cool. The food was alright, my favorite things were the cheesesteak egg rolls. My friend had salmon pasta and it was way too salty. The crab balls/mini crab cakes were also salty too the wings were just okay. We went upstairs to the club/lounge area after we ate and it was a nice vibe with good music!

    I met up with a colleague for happy hour here and it's a lot smaller than what it seems online. We got there a few mins before they opened at 5 and after the waitress let us in, she just want to the bar without seating us or telling us that it was a seat yourself situation. I ordered the CasaNoir and my friend ordered a lemon drop - both good and strong. We were super excited about the egg rolls but was informed that it'd be an hour before they'd be ready so we opted for wings and fries instead and would get egg rolls to go - or so we thought. An hour goes by and we ask about them again only to be told that the cook was prepping other things and egg rolls wouldn't be available at all. Let's backtrack to what we did order. It took a long time to get our food, esp considering it was not busy. The fries came out about 10 mins after the wings. I got the old bay wings and they were very good but again it took forever. It did also feel like like waitress forgot about us because she would disappear for long periods of time. & whoever mentioned the bathroom in the review was spot on, it smelled like sewage and I had to hold my breath the entire time.

    Lamb Chops

    So I sort of just ended up here one random night for my girlfriends birthday. I did no prior research and just kind of went with the flow. it is a bit small in there but I thought the decor was decent. There were a few details that stood out like the flowers on the ceilings in the LED logo on the wall. We were a big party (8 of us) but it was empty that night, so it worked. We started with cocktails and went right in to ordering our entrées. what was weird to me was that there was only one person making our cocktails which made the wait time a bit longer. The food took a while as well, but that was expected with the amount of people I came with. The food however, I did not love. The rice was a bit soggy and just not that great. the lamb chops had flavor, but not amazing. It was fun but otherwise I don't think I'd return.

    I visited Noir for a birthday celebration. There were between 30-35 guests. Upon arrival, the server took our drink orders. I ordered a top shelf Long Island and water at around 8:15 pm, the drink was delivered 45 minutes later. Other guests visited the bar to order drinks which caused the server/bartender to stop with the party drinks to serve those at the bar. Bathrooms I visited the women's restroom at 8:20 pm. The trash can was almost filled with trash, there were no paper towels, and tissue was scattered on the seats, and on the sinks. In the men's restroom, it was stocked with toiletries however, there was a sink on the floor. There was no caution tape. Service There were three people on staff. Female 1 (server/bartender, long black wavy hair, 5'5") Female 2 (food runner, short brown hair, 5'7") Female 3 (manager/supervisor, burgundy shoulder length dreads). Female 1 was the only person delivering food and making the drinks. I, along with other guests on the side of the room by window, received our entree 45 minutes after the rest the guests by the door. We were informed that more broccoli had to be prepared. Finished plates not cleared from table. Table setting Paint on light fixture. No silverware in on table upon arrival. Food The macaroni and cheese was not cooked. The cheese was milky with no flavor. The broccoli was over cooked and mushy. The salmon was over cooked and dry. The chicken wings were served warm and full of flavor. At 10:11 pm, additional plates were brought out for anyone who wanted food and the salmon tasted moist and full of flavor. Drinks The Long Island was not full of flavor and was akin to cough medicine. Lounge area Trash and old hookah tip on the floor. Sat down in area around 11pm, ice and shot glasses were delivered at 11:41 pm. For the bottle service, no cranberry nor pineapple juice. Only orange juice and lemonade. One of the sections only received shot cups and a bottle. My guests and I had to  go to the bar to get chasers. The only options were lemonade and orange juice. They were out of everything else. Recommendations For large parties, prepare food better. Just be better. Have more than one bartender / server or have the manager pitch in to assist. Clean the restrooms. Be better.

    Fried Potatoes

    A group of friends and I decided to give Noir Restaurant and lounge a try for brunch today and had a halfway decent time. The restaurant offers outdoor seating, but since we were the first guests there and no one was inside, we decided to dine in. The decor is gorgeous! I love the deep purples and the golds that they decorated in. Our waitress was nice and accommodating. Me and my friend ordered bottomless mimosas, but the champagne hadn't arrived yet. Our waitress served is a sangria until the champagne for the mimosas was available. The brunch menu was small, but the food was good and affordable. I ordered the chicken and waffles and really wished that the meal came with bigger wings but the flavor was good. They definitely should use another syrup brand, as the one they use was watery. The potatoes were awesome, which was appreciate because I feel like potatoes are a breakfast staple! I hope to revisit this restaurant after Covid to try their other menus options. But all and all, it was a nice experience.

    Lemon Pepper Wings
    Misty J.

    So, this place is nice. Very great ambiance and great music. Our server was super sweet and just had a very pleasant demeanor. My issue is the prices vs. portions of the food as well as the wait! We waited literally FOREVER for our food and it wasn't even packed! There were 3 of us and we all got our food at different times... plates are SMALL! Our friend had Alfredo which was $18 and and extra $5 for chicken! The plate was tiny as hell! Crazy!!!! My steak egg rolls were miniature and over cooked. I could most certainly taste oil. My husband's lemon pepper wings were good... but he was the last person to get his food. Which makes no sense. This is a nice, new establishment but I think they need to definitely work on their menu. They need to offer more price friendly options, maybe a happy hour... it is Friday after all! And my drink. I ordered their only special drink which I didn't catch the name of. I just know it had blackberry ciroc and watermelon. It tasted like blackberry cough syrup. I had to pour a good amount of water on it to balance it out. I did love the blackberry garnish on the straw. This place is perfect for a date night. Not an end of the week unwind. I don't know, I don't really have anything else to say. Not sure we'll be returning.

    The private dinning set up

    Predicate Party Review: My friend told me about this spot for their weekly activities and after I was ghosted by someone for an event rental, I came across NOIR and realized they have private dinner party options. Surprised they had my date available with such short notice (4 weeks) I booked them for a surprise birthday party and it was the best choice I could've made. Competitive cost for everything included and the food was delicious! We had the salmon, honey old bay and noir flavor wings along with sweet potatoes and Mac and cheese and a side salad. The food was amazing, delicious and hot. Now the only bad part about the experience and the reason I gave 4 stars was because the sweet potatoes had nuts in it and I don't recall being told that seeing how they can be life threatening to some. Thankfully that wasn't the case here. Plus during the event, random people kept being able to make their way into our private area but it could've been kind of confusing to the security guards since my guest were in an out as well so that wasn't too big of an issue. Torrey was amazing with answering all my questions and playing a roll in the surprise! It turned out great and the surprised was pulled off. Overall I would definitely book this place again and have been spreading the word of the amazing outcome we had. I actually plan to go back on one of their activity days just to eat the good food again. And to top it all off... This place is a BoB so I'll definitely be returning. Thanks again for making our night won

    Noir has good food, music, and service! Ambience - Noir is definitely for the trendy, brunch loving, millennial. Grown and sexy, but a fun vibe! But it doesn't stop there... My mom is 64 tomorrow and I took her for her birthday, and she had an amazing time. There was a good mix of music too! Everything from Anita Baker to Roddy Ricch. I feel like anybody can catch a vibe here and enjoy themselves. Service - Tia was just we love her. Her personality was amazing! She was upbeat, made great recommendations, and was just an overall sweetheart. She really made the experience better. Definitely requesting her section next time I go. Food - flavorful! We did the bottomless mimosas, chicken and waffles, and the shrimp and grits. Everything was delicious! I'm talking about no salt and pepper, no extra anything needed. Overall... Go! LOL. You're def to have a good time and enjoy some great food and drinks! Please please please be sure to ask for Tia!

This bar is inside the Hotel Ulysses, once entering the lobby, it's up the stairs and on the right. The dimly lit, mirror covered walls, and plush velvet seating adds to the upscale vibes. We were quickly attended to by a server and placed an order for drinks. My mom got a drink that included something called shrub (never heard of this before), but the server warned us it is a bit vinager-y and different, but that was ok for us. I ordered the Ocha Kudasai and my mom got the Zahara. The Kudasai was like a lychee green tea drink, it was light, slightly sweet, and delicious. The Zahara was different (as promised), but actually delectable. It had a flavor that I had never had in a drink before, but in a pleasant way. If you're an adventurous drinker, definitely try the Zahara! Love the vibes here, I will definitely be back.

I sat at the bar and quickly realized it was cash only, so I stepped upfront to use the ATM. The fee was $3, so I definitely recommend bringing cash ahead of time. I ordered an $8 drink, which was strong and very much needed--and shoutout to my bartender Tiffany, because she definitely took care of me. That drink was good, okay? After the first one, the drinks kept flowing, and the night really picked up. For food, I had the lemon pepper wings with fries and ranch. Even though I was already a little tipsy by that point, the wings were really good--flavorful, perfectly cooked, and hit the spot. And somehow, I even ended up with free food, which made the night even better. Just to be clear for anyone planning to come: they charge at the door after 8 PM daily, so make sure you have cash if you're arriving after that time. They also have happy hour, though I can't remember the exact hours--it may be 5-7 or 6-7--but they offer $2 off drinks, which explains the $8 price during happy hour. Also, while the bar is cash only, the food is separate and you can pay for food with a card. As the night went on, the music was on point--a great mix of old school and new school--and the vibes were just right. I made my way to the back where the dance floor is and fully immersed myself in the club/lounge atmosphere. I came around 6:30 and stayed until about 12:30, and honestly, I didn't want to leave. I had other plans later, but if I didn't, I probably would have stayed and danced all night. Even if you come by yourself, you won't feel alone for long. As long as you have an open personality and good energy, people will talk to you, dance with you, and make you feel right at home. I haven't been on a Monday yet, which is what they advertise for my age range (I'm 28), but I'm definitely planning to check it out. I also heard Sundays are house music, so if that's your vibe, it's worth stopping by. Will I be back to Melba's? Hell yeah. Did I have a great time at Melba's? Absolutely. It was a whole vibe. If you're looking for a vibe--go to Melba's.

    Clandestino has grown up, literally. What began as a small operation in Frederick has moved into a…read morelarger space, and the expansion suits them well. This is Puerto Rican pitorro, also known as ron cañita, made with care and intention rather than gimmickry. Many local liquor stores now carry the brand, and it is well worth picking up a bottle, but visiting the distillery is an experience in itself. The founder is a fellow Puerto Rican born retired military member, a background I share, and like me, he has put down roots in Maryland. That story is reflected clearly in the brand's own framing, "Puerto Rican born, Maryland made." The space feels grounded and unpretentious, and that sensibility carries through to the hospitality. We arrived late on a Saturday and were still welcomed warmly, never rushed. We were taken care of by the founder's daughter, who was exceptionally kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. She guided us through a flight that included the traditional pitorro, almond, pineapple, coffee, coconut chai, and several seasonal offerings. The flavors were thoughtful and well balanced; even the infused expressions retained a clear rum backbone rather than drifting into novelty. We enjoyed them enough to leave with several bottles. This is artisanal pitorro done right, rooted in Puerto Rican tradition and confidently made in Maryland. Buying it locally is convenient, but going to the distillery is where the people, the story, and the spirit fully come together.

For the brunch menu we were able to choose a appetizer, entree, and a dessert for $35.00. Not too bad. For drinks I ordered PIRATE PRINCESS which was Ron del Barrilito 2 Star Puerto Rican rum, passionfruit, miso honey, lime, and togarash. It was a perfect balance of sweetness and a little bitterness. For food we ordered the shrimp and corn patties, and the pan roasted salmon. The shrimp and corn patties were delicious. It was packed with multiple flavors and it was seasoned really well. The pan roasted salmon was cooked to perfection. It was flaky, and seasoned very well. It came with Ramen noodles that I thought were going to be temperature hot however, they came room temperature which was fine. They were seasoned very well. The ambiance was very nice. It gave like 1950's/ 1970's vibe. Old marble tables, antique pictures on the walls. It seemed like the building use to be a house prior to it becoming a restaurant. It was a great time. If you are in the Hampden area I recommend giving this restaurant a try. I am looking forward to visiting again for dinner. Cheers!!
