Service was quick and simple. Wasn't too crowded when I came in. Got here just in time to take advantage of the happy hour prices. My order was the boom boom shrimp and chicken tacos. I'm starting to feel like once you have had boom boom shrimp one place, you had it every where. The flavor was really no different from any other place I have had boom boom sauce. Chicken tacos were pretty good. Fresh jalapeños gave it a good kick. The place can fill up soon with customers and it is a seat yourself establishment. Music and games are playing but not too loud

Brussel sprouts
Shirlonda S.

Food was good, wings and Brussel sprouts. Great service,food was good. The area inside is limited space; also my chair was shaky, they may want to check and replace chairs before someone falls. It's a cool warm good atmosphere especially on trivia night. Note: You do seat yourself, very casual..

The service was good. I tried their new flight margaritas and garlic fries. The only thing was wrong the fries was drained enough lots of grease. I went back the other day and got a rum and coke wasn't strong at all so i will continue with my margarita flight.

Sirloin Steak Nachos
David P.

Told us wings were on special then came back and said no. We won $10 off gift cards at Bingo, but then they did not honor them. Food was meh and drinks were expensive (did not give us happy hour prices even though we ordered at 6:30 and happy hour stops at 7). Nachos were limp and skimped on steak. Won't be back.

Cider - Mango Mimosa
Donyiel C.

Super chill bar to hang on Sunday Funday! Located inside Towson Town Center. Met up with a friend yesterday. Olivia, our server was great. Initially, MacKenzie sat us down, and she was very friendly as well. I wanted to try a cider, but nothing too sweet, and they let me try a few different ones. I liked the mango mimosa one - not sweet at all, but tasty. I had a jalapeño cheese burger with fries. It was good but not spicy as I had hoped. It was at least filling. My friend got the pork quesadilla and he thought it was ok but a bit on the salty side. Overall, it's a nice place to hang. I would come back again. Family friendly with decent prices. Parking in the lot is tight. Just park in the garage!

5 Cheese Flatbread
Swapna Y.

We came here Friday night for trivia. The trivia was ok. The questions were really obscure and their was so much time between questions, so folks were able to use their phone to look up answers. The service was great. Absolutely no issues there. The place was clean. Plenty of seating. It's attached to the mall, so plenty of parking. The food was not very good. We ordered the chips and queso, and that ok. The tater tots had no seasoning or flavor. The side of buffalo cauliflower was about 4 pieces of cauliflower with a drizzle of buffalo sauce. The cheese pizza did not have a lot of flavor and the crust just tasted oily. Others at the table said the wings were good. I also ordered the strawberry mule and that was pretty good. I would come back for the drinks but would not spend money or the calories on the food. UPDATE based on owner's response to my review. The only thing that was modified was the adding of onions to the 5 cheese flat bread. It was a few sprinkle of onions on top which was surprisingly disappointing. I do not believe that would alter the tatse of the bottom of the pizza which had an oily taste that was weird.

I won a $10 gift card for playing Bingo!

We found the Music Bingo event on Facebook and decided to check it out. This place is tucked on front side of Dulaney Valley of the Towson Town Center mall. You must be over 21 to dine on the inside after certain times. One thing for sure they start on time. We already missed a few rounds, but no worries the host made her rounds to include all new guests. The game was free to play- win-win. So we were given a play card that had two bingo cards and a pen. All you have to do is listen for the song and check it off your card if it is played. Easy, right? Also if you don't know the song, the host will pop around or announce the name of the song to help. What songs was played? A mix of new and oldies but goodies. Okay, now what did we indulge into? Well I love wings- ordered the naked dry rub spicy wings. Sorry no pic, your gurl here was trying to play bingo and wat at the same time. But they are worth trying! Hubby had the fish and chips and ordered a beer and Moscow . Of course I did order a shot which are reduced after 9. Plus, I ordered the chocolate chip cookies and ice cream for dessert. It was okay but I am not one to complain, but too many chocolate chips ruined it for me. Overall, service was good and the entertainment was awesome. Oh I won a bingo game!!

Nice restaurant / bar. Connected to Towson mall. They show sports on all tvs. So. Great place to watch Sunday games. It varies between busy and loud to quiet and calm. Food is sissy's on point. Bartender andrew is great. Always remembers your order. And everything comes out on time. Wings were great. Shrimp too. Salad. With shrimp. I honestly never had a bad meal there and it's pretty friendly. Dress casual and enjoy this sports bar

Steak nachos yummmmy
Nisha B.

Came to visit with a friend here on a Wednesday night. It was also Music Bingo night!! I got the nachos with steak, which was big enough for 2-3 people and very good! I don't drink so my water was always filled. Our waitress was very nice! Shared parking with Friday's and other shops on the exterior of the mall. Has You can walk in through the main mall doors or the entrance to the Brass Tap itself. Although we didn't play, Music Bingo was delightful. Good music from the 90s and 2000's. At this time, they closed at 9PM ET. I would come back again definetly!

Michelada (alcohol free)
Natalie R.

We actually went to the wrong location and didn't realize since we aren't from there. We were visiting from central California but I'm low key glad we did. The bartender wasn't sure what a michelada was but after we talked about it she pulled it off (and alcohol free) and it was so good! We had the Korean bbq nachos and they were so good that we could not stop eating them! And of course, dessert. Yum. For being inside of a mall it was not loud and annoying. I enjoyed the ambiance entirely. Very pleased.

Looking for something to do on a Sunday after church? Brass Tap! Flights of yummy beer, spicy Boom Boom Shrimp, and a fantastic Brisket Grilled Cheese Sandwich. It's baseball season and dem O's are doing great, hon! Lots of TVs for sports, tons of beer on tap, and good bar food selection.

Texas Mule was DELICIOUS

Several people had…read morerecommended the chicken and waffles, which made me very excited as in NY, this dish done well is hard to find. Sadly, our server, Hope, I think, said the item had been taken off the menus despite many requests for it from patrons over time. While our other selections, crab cakes, salads, were very good we had been psyched for the now "86ed" chicken and waffles. The waitress recommended I reach out to Steve, as manager, to add the C&W on the menu, at least as a special occasionally. I would happily return to sample it, if this were to happen. Thanks. Good ambiance, pleasant staff.

The problem was the execution in the kitchen. Our flaming cheese appetizer was cool and firm, even after the flames subsided, steak was served medium rather than medium rare, as ordered, and the chicken & waffles entree consisted of a bowl of reheated pieces of fried chicken served over a half of a waffle. Not an appetizing presentation. In summary, I think the bar and wait staff were great, but the kitchen staff need some retraining.

I had a true 5-star experience at Nepenthe. A few weeks ago,…read moreI visited Nepenthe for a happy hour at work and had the chance to meet Chef Andrew. During our conversation, I mentioned that my wife absolutely loved a specialty burger from his previous restaurant. That restaurant closed several years ago, and the burger isn't on Nepenthe's menu. Without hesitation, Chef Andrew told me that if I gave him some advance notice and brought her in, he would get the ingredients and make it especially for her. So that's exactly what I did for her birthday. When the burger arrived, my wife was genuinely surprised. Chef Andrew even added a candle to the plate to make the occasion extra special. The burger was everything she remembered. She often says she compares every burger she eats to that one, but had resigned herself to the idea that she'd never have it again. Bravo, Chef Andrew. What makes this story even more remarkable is that I had only met him once before. This wasn't something I asked him to do--he was the one who suggested it. That's the kind of hospitality is something I'll never forget. The food at Nepenthe is consistently good, and the atmosphere is fun, lively, and full of energy. It's a great spot for happy hours, trivia nights, and group gatherings. I'll never forget the kindness and hospitality we experienced. This is Baltimore hospitality at its finest.

Nepenthe Brewing is a great place for vegans and non drinkers. Seem weird for a brewing company?…read moreMaybe, but they make it work well and that is why I'm a fan. Nepenthe Brewing has a rotating menu of inspired vegan dishes. This isn't your typical burger and fry brewery. We've visited for date nights, during vegan week, with kids and without. Each time, Nepenthe has not disappointed. Some of the dishes my family and I have enjoyed here are the Killer Tofu (top notch), Crispy Mushroom Banh Mi, Berry Smashed Mocktail, Lemon-Blueberry Cake and, for the kids, the fries with vegan pub dipping sauce. As long as Nepenthe keeps putting forth unique vegan food and mocktails, my family and I will keep it a part of our rotation.

Great restaurant, location, ambiance, service and food…read more Parking was a bit challenging but it was Friday afternoon so probably to be expected. They are doing renovations to enlarge the patio seating. Expected noise and a little construction dust. It was a beautiful day so sitting outside was the thought only to realize it was a bit chilly if you didn't get a seat in the sun. Outside seating was pet friendly.

I discovered that everyone has the same opinion and I should have gotten a reservation. The inside is very nice also, so no issues. I was greeted immediately and seated in a comfortable area. I was waited on immediately with water and flatware. My drink from the bar was very good and my server was excellent ("Addie"). I ordered the lobster roll and I have to say that I was disappointed, there was very little flavor. It was simply lobster meat and mayonnaise on a bun. I've had a Lobster roll at other places and much more flavor. I noticed that the hostess's have no dress code and looked as if they wore their yard clothes to work. Short cut off blue jean shorts. Bellies showing and low-cut blouses. Not very professional in my opinion, especially for the impression they are trying to present to they're customers. I like the ambiance, but probably won't return.

Service was great and our waitress did a great job keeping the drinks flowing! I opted for the chicken and waffles to which I wasn't super pleased. I chose this dish because they mentioned they bread and season their chicken in house so I thought oh this must be amazing, however it was bland in my opinion. The waffle was great and so were the mimosas and sangria! I was a little caught off guard that they served the mimosas in a pint glass (that beer is served in) and with ice. Very interesting combo as I've never seen that before. They were accommodating however with providing us with a wine glass after asking. I also had the chowder which was good.

When he finally did, the cocktails were easily the worst we've ever had -- completely undrinkable. This isn't a one-off; it's the third time he's served us, and every time the service and drinks have been awful. He seemed out of it -- distracted, unprofessional, maybe even under the influence. To top it off, he served my drink in a dirty glass. When I asked for a replacement, he just poured the same disgusting drink into another cup instead of remaking it. I had to insist he start over. It's such a shame because the bartenders on the other side of The Point are excellent -- friendly, attentive, and professional. This one bartender, however, drags down the entire experience and the bar's reputation. I won't be coming back.
