    12 ounce ribeye, mashed potatoes and spinach
    Monique C.

    I recently dined at Yellowfin Steak and Fish House in Edgewater, MD. The atmosphere was nice, the food was generally flavorful, and both the host and our waiter, Jesús, were pleasant and kind. Unfortunately, I experienced a serious food allergy issue. I informed the waiter at the start that I am allergic to shrimp and ordered the Sea Bass & Scallops. After a few bites, my throat began itching, and I discovered a large piece of shrimp in the dish, it was in the risotto. The receipt later stated that I "did not like" the dish, which was inaccurate. I immediately raised the concern, and the waiter explained that he forgot to inform the kitchen and mentioned he was new. The manager did comp the meal, which I appreciated, but my concern was never about cost--I simply wanted to eat safely and enjoy my uncle's 73rd birthday. I reordered a fish with mashed potatoes and artichokes. By the time it arrived, the rest of the table was nearly finished eating, and the fish was slightly burnt. I chose not to send it back, though the flavor was good. We ordered three appetizers, a bowl of cream of crab soup, and three entrées total, and overall the food was tasty. With that being said, food allergies must always be taken seriously, as this could have been dangerous for someone with a more severe allergy. I recommend that new servers carefully write down orders, fully learn the menu--especially allergens--or be paired with experienced staff. While the food was good, this experience has made me hesitant to return. Additionally, our reservation was not found upon arrival the host told me something like they don't see it on OpenTable.

    We have been debating coming here for a while and finally made our way to Yellowfin. We went for dinner and were thoroughly impressed with view of the water. The decor was a bit dated but again the picturesque view more than made up for it. We shared the 1/2 cream of crab and 1/2 Maryland crab soup, the ribeye which was accompanied by grilled asparagus and mashed red potatoes. The soup was one of the best we've ever had. It was so flavorful and had plenty of crab. The ribeye was supposed to medium rare but it came out a little blue so we sent it back to be cooked longer. There was a gravy served under my steak. It was not bad and was seasoned well. Our waiter Josh was apologetic and friendly. He was great! The asparagus was over cooked, stringy, and lacked seasoning. The potatoes were made well but were missing salt. For our cocktails we ordered the grapefruit crush and the purple haze martini. The crush needed more alcohol and the purple haze tasted amazing. We want to visit again soon to see what else Yellowfin has to offer and will update this review when we do.

    We came when the dining room was closed but were able to still enjoy a window table in the bar area. Everything was great! Both fish and veggies within our entrees tasted fresh. Will be back for the full menu and dining room experience!

    I love finding myself in new spots and being happy with everything. I celebrated a wedding anniversary here, and we didn't want a fancy place but wanted quality food, and Yellowfin fits that bill. Right on the water, it gave a romantic ambiance. Service was 10/10. I wouldn't say I like it when I forget to write down our server name, but she was attentive and informative when asked questions and suggestions, which, by the way, we're spot on. We decided to try things we usually don't go for, and boy, oh boy, did it pay off! The oysters Rockefeller Chesapeake style were delicious! I am very picky about the cream of crab, and it was full of meat; you could taste the cherry, and very flavorful. The meals were equally well-seasoned and had nice portions. The lamb chops came with 6 chops; I haven't been served that many before. I added a crab cake to my meal. It wasn't the best I have had, but it was good and meaty. In all, it was an excellent experience.

    On the water with great views. Happy hour specials from 4-7 are worth a trip. The Brie plate was a small wedge bathed in thin honey with cheese encrusted bread for spreading. Unique. And fruit came with it. Bartenders were attentive and service was excellent.

    This was a really great restaurant. The ambiance was relaxing, wasn't crowded at all tonight. They have a huge bar area with pink Florescent lighting, the dining area is huge and they have a downstairs for private parties as well. Our waitress Kiah was amazing. She was respectful, gave recommendations, attentive, friendly, etc. I really enjoyed talking and laughing with her. The food: Pleaseeeee get the crab cake egg rolls and the oyster Rockefeller appetizers. The rolls were bomb(although they weren't at hot as I would have liked). They were huge, flavorful and packed with crabmeat. The oysters were filled with perfection. They come with bacon crumbles which was an added bonus to the flavor. The entrees were the lamb lollipops and salmon Oscar. The lamb was really tender and they gave you atleast 8/9 lollipops. Definitely worth the money. The sautéed spinach and roasted potatoes were really good. The portion was hugeeeeee so I had plenty to take home. The salmon dish was really good and flavorful. Also we had the lobster mac. They have an entree or appetizer size. The app was more than enough. It was really good but could have used more lobster. The drinks: The old fashion was so strong according to my friend. I had rum punch which was just ok. Strong for sure but could have used more punch. The whiskey sidecars were decent. I will definitely return here. The menu was so elaborate that I would need to visit a few more times.

    I've dinned at Yellowfin more times than I can count and I've always had a great meal, tonight was a tad different. I received an email from them advertising a special pre-fix Valentine's Day special that ran through the weekend. The email also advertised Chef Edry's New Features as well as a few other weekly specials. We decided to celebrate a few days after the holiday to try to get away from the crowd. We had a reservation and were seated right away. We had a great table with a wonderful sunset view. Our server was very polite and attentive. We came in planning on going with the special menu, but I also wanted to order an appetizer off of Chef Edry's new menu. When I tried to do so I was informed that menu wasn't available and hadn't been for quite awhile. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. If that menu is no longer available, it needs to be removed from the website and email blast. Things happen and I wasn't going to let that ruin the experience. We started off with the chargrilled oysters. They were pretty good and adequate size for an appetizer. Tasty, but nothing exceptional. The second course was the Hearts of Romaine salad. This was a total disappointment. The lettuce looked extremely old and was starting to turn brown. It gave the impression that it was the end of the week and they were going to serve it vs wasting it. It was a very small portion even for a side salad. It had roughly four pecans a couple of strawberries with a sprinkle of goat cheese. It was served tossed in a vinaigrette. The taste wasn't bad, but this salad had definitely seen better days. Took a few bites and left the rest. I got the Surf and Turf and absolute chef's kiss! Everything was prepared perfectly. Temp on my steak was spot on. It came with a filet, lobster tail, mashed potatoes and asparagus. I'm allergic to asparagus and I was able to substitute for the spinach. Great presentation and something I'd absolutely order again. For the final dessert course I got the strawberry crème brûlée. Just ok. It was lukewarm and the consistency of the custard was a little lumpy and I didn't get any strawberry flavor. There were fresh sliced strawberries on the plate, not sure if that's why they called it "strawberry...". The main course was amazing, but everything else was really just ok. Definitely not the service I'm used to receiving from this establishment.

    Scallops and shrimp wrapped in bacon

    Went Sunday around 5-6pm dinner time Ordered Surf & Turf was about $70 but well worth it. Steak ordered medium well perfectly cooked. Steak was so good I'd like to meet the cook! Service was also excellent Had a great time would recommend 100% 10/10

You have the option to select cat fish or rock fish (selected the rock). I also got Cajun boiled that comes with potato, shrimp, corn. I included three orders of the crawfish in the boil. The family was disappointed, many of the crawfish was NOT fresh and many of the tails were mushy. It's like it was frozen and overcooked to the point of texture was ruined. Out of all the crawfish three were fresh. Highly disappointed. The flavor We got was the shack medium spice but it was flavorless. The rockfish was extremely dry from the inside but crispy from the batter. The French fries had to be place in the air fryer and add our own seasoning. The coleslaw was the best out of everything. I would like to know what happen? I used to order from here all the time once it opened. The food was fresh and you could tell. Who ever made my food when I first review this spot. Please let me know because I need them back.

We settled into our table and were welcomed by Shannon, our server. (There was a little confusion about this, but it straightened out.) The restaurant is bright and separated from the well-stocked bar. I had a Sagamore rye neat, and B ordered a glass of the Rioja. If there are oysters on the menu, you know I'll order them. There was a pretty good selection, and I opted for a half dozen Rappahanock oysters. They were excellent, sweet and briny. We each ordered a Caesar salad, but Shannon advised us that it was large enough to be shareable. More than enough. B ordered the pasta with clams, and I choose the Seafood chowder. The chowder was delicious, but B found the pasta to be too peppery for her tastes. Worse, three of the clams were unopened. We brought this to Shannon's attention, and she offered to put in a new order, but B demured, as she was full. At this point, Owner John Hogan came over to the table to chat. He told us the clams would be taken off the bill, and gave us a gift card, hoping we'd return. He stayed at our table for nearly 30 minutes, and we had a wonderfully engaging conversation with him. We will definitely be going back.
