Great location and service. Joey the manager was such a great host helping with everything: tips on food pairings, where to sit, and helping to take good photos. It was such a nice decision to spend our anniversary dinner there.

Had an amazing dinner at the Four Seasons Pool Bar & Grill. The view over the Inner Harbor at sunset was stunning, the food and drinks were excellent, and the ambiance was spot on. Huge thanks to the staff for being so accommodating — their service made the evening truly special. Can’t wait to return!
