    steak frites
    Alex W.

    The interior is absolutely beautiful and creates a great atmosphere. I'd recommend making a reservation, especially on weekends. It wasn't overly crowded when we visited, but it was surprisingly loud, making conversation a bit difficult at times. Service was okay overall. The staff was friendly, but it seemed like they may have been understaffed that evening, as we often had to flag our waitress down when we needed something. As for the food, the bread tower was a little underwhelming and didn't quite live up to the hype. The steak frites, however, were excellent. The steak was cooked perfectly, the fries were delicious, and the portion size was very generous. One small drawback is that they don't offer fountain drinks, only canned sodas. Overall, the food was solid and the space is gorgeous, but the noise level and service kept the experience from being truly exceptional. The steak frites alone are worth coming back for.

    The views are amazing. I appreciate that they're visible from every seat in the restaurant. I had a Bloody Mary with a piece of bacon in it. I very rarely order them but I'm glad I did this time, it was really good. My shrimp and grits was a good portion and it was tasty.

    After visiting the MDSPE facility for an award ceremony my family and I went to Topside. The restaurant is on the top floor of the hotel and it has a great view of the city. Service was OK. Our server, in the beginning, seemed to be frustrated with some of the questions we had, not 100% sure why. We had a great time overall. I got the duck breast and she got the steak frites. I must say the old-fashioned was probably, top three, best I've ever had.

    We went to Topside for a family celebration dinner and the food, service and ambiance didn't disappoint. We were greeted with such enthusiasm and excitement. Our service was excellent from the pre-dinner drinks to the bar to the table service for our meal. We ordered appetizers (ate it so quickly we didn't get a photo). The presentation of all food was incredible. The details were beautiful! You can tell this restaurant cares about quality of their meals and service. Will definitely be going back! The view of the city is so beautiful! I loved all the beautiful details of the restaurant too. It's inviting and elegant!

    Overall, I would give it a 3.5! I've had Topside on my list for awhile now and glad I made it and I would have liked to have given it a higher rating, but perhaps when I return I will update my review then. Located in Mount Vernon on top of the Revival hotel, this rooftop restaurant offers amazing views of the city. Just take the elevator up to level R/Topside. Parking wasn't hard - I found a spot right across the street. They offer valet it seems but I would say just look for street parking. On a Monday it wasn't too busy so no reservation was needed but I would say on weekends it would be. They offer a burger and beer special for $18 on Mondays - seemed to be popular. I don't really drink beer so didn't go for that. Our server never told us her name. She disappeared for awhile and again, it was a Monday so not busy at all. My friend ordered a glass of wine and she completely forgot. He eventually got it after we had to remind her. I liked the "Suede" cocktail with mezcal. I did stop by the bar on my way out and thanked Shep (not sure the spelling) but he was very nice. The hostess was very friendly. Now onto the food. It's a very limited menu. I went with the lamb, which I enjoyed with the chimichurri, but pricey for the portions. My friend got the rock fish. We shared a bread plate which came with assorted breads and butter, but it was $14. I plan to visit again.

    My daughter and I visited to jointly celebrate her birthday and Mother's Day. One of the reasons we celebrated each a bit late was to make sure we could make reservations at Topside. The views of Baltimore are beautiful. The staff is welcoming. Our server was thoughtful and made sure our evening had multiple special touches. The drinks, entrees, and dessert were memorably delicious. The chef is magical. Thank you Topside for a wonderful experience!

    Chesapeake Cioppino

    It has been a minute since I have been to Topside. Perched on the 14th floor, Hotel Revival, this rooftop restaurant has always been known for its views, sunny brunches and cozy dinners. Got together with a few friends for dinner during the holidays and it never disappoints. We stopped in on a Sunday, early evening around 5:30. It was pretty quiet so we were quickly seated at our table. Our server for the evening, Josh was phenomenal. Josh is pretty much knowledgeable about the entire menu and gave us wonderful recommendations from food to cocktails. And answered any questions that we had, I wound definitely sit in his section all the time. I highly recommend. Our table ordered a plethora of entrees, from the Chesapeake Cioppino( a seasfood stew with clams, mussels, rockfish, Maryland crab and fennel), a phenomenal dish and perfect for cold evenings. The Rockfish entree was really delicious and I was blown away with the crispy okra. Definitely a nice touch to the dish. It sits in a goan curry sauce, so delicious. You can never go wrong with their burger. The cracked pepper bacon along with the caramelized onion jam was really good on this burger and it was cooked perfectly, nice and juicy. We also had the Shenandoah lamb and the shrimp and grits, which were not pictured, my friends enjoyed those dishes as well. They have nice cocktail menu as well, all the cocktails are named after songs, such as Like a G6 for example. If you're in the Mount Vernon area of town, stop in and check them out. They also offer brunch and happy hour service as well. You won't be disappointed SYOY I

    Octopus
    Alexis B.

    My husband and I had dinner at Topside last weekend before an opera at the Engineer's Club. Topside is a restaurant on the top level of Hotel Revival. It has stunning 360 views of Baltimore's Mount Vernon neighborhood (and further out into the city). People were talking up to the windows and taking pictures throughout the evening (especially at sunset). It's a really stunning place for dinner or just for drinks! We shared: the octopus (blistered shishito / black garlic aioli / peppadew oil); the tuna tataki (ponzu / pear brûlée / wasabi aioli / crispy quinoa); the blue catfish (sorghum glazed snakehead filet/duck braised collard greens/white cheddar grits/ duck crackling); and a panna cotta for dessert. All the food was good. The cocktails and were really good. And the service was really great, too - our server was lovely, friendly, and helpful. Overall, we enjoyed our meal at Topside. I'd return for dinner, but I'd definitely return for drinks before a show or concert. A really lovely way to take in Baltimore (especially at sunset)!

    This meal was the highlight of our Baltimore trip! We were staying in the Hotel Revival and didn't want to leave again to eat so we went up to Topside - and we were SO happy we did. Our waitress was so sweet and attentive and the view was amazing. But the highlight was the food! We ordered the lamb, tagliatelle, and the bread basket along with some drinks. Everything was 10/10 - we are still talking about it days later! So delicious and filling. If I am ever in Baltimore again, even if I don't stay at this hotel, I will make sure to head to this restaurant again.

    I went to Topside on a Saturday night with two friends, and even without a reservation, we were seated immediately--major points for that. The ambiance is modern and elevated, and the view overlooking Mount Vernon is absolutely gorgeous. It honestly makes you feel like you've been transported to another city. I had the short rib dish, which was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor--definitely a standout. Plentiful paid street parking nearby made it easy to access, which is always a plus in Baltimore. The only downside? Portion sizes are pretty small, especially for the price point. This isn't the kind of place I'd go if I were starving, but it is a great spot if you're looking to enjoy good food, a beautiful setting, and a chic vibe. Highly recommend for a night out or a date spot.

    Lion's Mane Mushroom
    Jordan T.

    The ambiance and atmosphere is always in point here. The views are breathtaking, especially at sunset. Our server was one of the nicest people, very kind and positive. The manager let us into the garden room to take some photos and all the staff were very professional and friendly. The food was great. We shared a handful of dishes (octopus, short rib, duck breast, lion's mane mushroom) and tried a couple of the mock tails. The short rib and duck were a bit in the dry side but were still very flavorful and delicious. To my surprise the lion's mane mushroom dish was by far the best of them all. Absolutely amazing! You have to try it.

    I stayed at Hotel Revive and this restaurant was located on the rooftop. The view is beautiful and the vibe is great. The menu not so much. I wasn't really hungry but wanted drinks and the menu is very limited. They need more small bites. The appetizers were not appetizing. I definitely would t go back because the menu just didn't hit. But I'm giving them a four star because the service was amazing. I ordered a side of collard greens, cornbread and fries.

    Wow. What a PLACE. What a LOCATION. What amazing FOOD. This was simply a phenomenal experience. I can't believe I've been here for 2 years and no one has talked about this? You have one of the best views of the stunning baltimore sky line. Coming here and seeing the sunset is just dreamy. The ambiance here is the most dreamy location I've been in a long time. It's cozy, it's upscale without being intimidating. And the food is WOW. We got the duck and rock fish and it was stupendous. The charcuterie was stunning. And I couldn't let that octopus sneak past me. When I tell you that octopus was one of the best things I have ever put in my mouth? I have been to MULTIPLE. Michelin star restaurants. And that octopus outshines. It was tender. It was supple. It was charred and delicious. Ugh. I want it again. I truly truly cannot recommend coming here enough. Come have a drink at the bar by yourself if you have to. Come witness this amazing location. You won't regret it.

Deviled Egg Flight: 4 variations, but the crab deviled egg stole the show (we are in Maryland, after all!). Roasted Chicken with Brussels Sprouts: Absolute perfection. Those Brussels sprouts deserve their own fan club. I ordered the fried Oreo Beignet to go and wanted to slap myself it was so good! The perfect Netflix and Chill snack. Paid around $115 including tip and plenty of parking with a garage nearby. Shoutout to my server Adda (apologies if I am misspelling the name) for being so warm and giving the best recommendations. 10/10, five stars...I'll definitely be bringing friends back next time!

    I went for Valentine's day and my husband and I had a great experience. The place was decorated…read morewith balloons and valentines decor. Everything had a black almost gothic interior, with accents of red. Super pretty and dramatic. R&B music was playing to set the mood. Food came out quickly. Staff were very accommodating and attentive. The signature drink Blk Swan was so good. Crab cake didn't blow my mind, but I went for the overall experience. I'd definitely go back.

    I came for restaurant week 2026. It is a three-course meal. I left very full, the portions felt…read morevery appropriate! My friend and I shared our dishes. For the appetizer, we got the mushroom toast and miso soup. The mushroom toast was umami and creamy. And the miso soup had an interesting crunch on top, while the base was hearty. I really enjoyed both! For the main course we got the catfish. It was nicely fried and not at all greasy. I regret not getting the lamb instead, since I'm not the biggest fan of white fish. For dessert, we tried the shortbread and a blueberry cake. I forget exactly why it was, but the shortbread was so delectable. There was a nice caramel layer. Our server was very kind! Very attentive and friendly. I was celebrating a birthday, and when she heard that, she asked if we wanted a Polaroid photo to document the moment. It was so cute! Overall ambiance is nice too. It's cozy without feeling small. Although, it was very cold that day and every time someone opened the door, I would feel the wind draft. Maybe a slightly higher indoor temperature would be better. Anyways, I'd definitely come back! Solid food and lovely service. I like that they serve seasonal specials.

    Overall a 3.5-4 star…read more Unique food, flavorful and locally sourced. More tapas style, some entrees were better than others. Drinks: okay, nothing stellar, but had some variety. We each got the cranberry Negroni which tasted not much like cranberry or a Negroni, and one person got a celery margarita which just tasted like a regular marg. Ambiance: quaint, they have a lot of fun decor throughout. Service: no complaints
