Menu

The restaurant from Glen Burnie offers 98 different courses and drinks on the menu for an average price of $15.4.

The restaurant, which was recently reopened, received mixed reviews. Some customers had issues with making reservations for special occasions like Mother's Day due to outdated information on booking platforms. Others praised the delicious menu items like firecracker shrimp and crab cakes. While some found the atmosphere and live music enjoyable, there were uncomfortable encounters with staff, such as an older gentleman who tapped a customer's head and touched another customer's arm. Overall, the experience was considered good, but improvements in service and consistency were recommended for future visits.

While on our way to a different restaurant on Ritchie Highway for crab cakes, we decided to give this grill a try since we had never been there before. After looking over the menu, we decided to stay and we are so glad we did. The crab cakes we ordered were absolutely delicious. We will definitely be returning to try out more items on the menu.

The design of this app is to avoid the hassle of calling for reservations, and the confirmation email I received should have sufficed without necessitating a followup phone call to the restaurant.

Took my reservation and they were closed on Mother’s Day

Reservations were made and accepted. Arrived at the location and was surprised to find out that this restaurant is closed for business

First time since changed to Backfins. Friday evening the place was pretty empty, almost didn’t go in. Glad we did! Firecracker Shrimp were prob count large cook nice with tasty BAM sauce. My combo Broiled seafood platter was excellent! Crab cake tasted like a real MD crab cake! Scallops,shrimp and Flounder all cook to perfections. Could use less Old Bay on everything Wife’s Ribeye steak pretty good . Ambience and deco us very, very nice and would be a top end base in any major city. Even the sound system and various music genre was great! Looks like they have live music small combo on Fri evenings. Most perplexing part is they serve steamed crabs and it just doesn’t work in this higher end atmosphere. Looks like they are trying to be all things and I doubt that will work. I believe we will go there again next Friday as we found out the Musician Clay Hunt is playing there next Friday not full band. Only bad thing was a terrible Dirty Martini with tiny mushy olives. Switched to beer real quick. Sever Darius was personable and outstanding and represented the place very well

The restaurant was apparently closed for the last months, but open table still allowed me to make a reservation for me plus 8 of my family members on Mother's Day. every other day would probably have been a simple solution. this was extremely frustrating, however, and was a great inconvenience, as Mother's Day is always looking for reservations that were made even more difficult due to a big party. the design of this app is to avoid the hassle of calling for reservations, and the confirmation email that I would have received would have been sufficient without requiring a follow-up phone calling into the restaurant. if the information is not up to date, this is ineffective.
