Amazing! Enjoyed the food!
An amazing thanksgiving dinner and great service !
Great food
The wait staff was good but seems like management seriously understaffed the restaurant. Only so much two waiters could do in the entire restaurant. Food & atmosphere were both great.
Love this place!
Nice location and interior. Went on a Sunday night and we were literally the only people in the place and yet we received poor service. I guess our waitress had kind of checked out since it was so slow. The food was a mixed bag - mussels were good, seafood entrees kind of drab, dessert was good.
My wife and i have dined at Amersea serveral times this year and have completely enjoyed each meal. The staff has always been very professional with great service, Thank you
Brunch was great. There was a nice waterfront view next to the restaurant. Bottomless mimosas and sangrias were great as well. Definitely recommend Ampersea.
Ate on the deck overlooking the bay and had the most wonderful meal.
The setting is great, with an excellent view of the bay. The highlight for me was the crabcake entree, one of the best crabcakes I've had anywhere. The service was friendly and didn't rush us.
We had an amazing dinner at Ampersea, incredible view - the scallops and swordfish were amazing!
Our favorite spot in Fell’s Point! Sitting on the water eating lobster rolls and crab cakes doesn’t get any better than Ampersea.
Wonderful experience. Beautiful scenery. Excellent food and customer service. Will be going back.
The view is amazing from the patio and food is consistently good.
Very good restaurant on the harbor. Views great; food and service always very good.
Brunch with family
Food was great
Food was cold even when it was returned for the second time. Service wasn’t great and the whole process was a bit disjointed. The setting is gorgeous but doesn’t cancel out all the other issues.
Get the seafood boil - it is delicious! And end with the bread pudding. You will end up writing a similar review to mine 😉
Food was great. Outside deck was beautiful.
Took a European guest for a dinner on the Baltimore waterfront. Nice setting and great weather. Service was good not great. Had to explain that four people needed four silverware sets——
The menu had good choices... crab cake and lobster roll quite good as was catfish sandwich. The Marconi salad was nostalgic for this diner who remembers marconis.
The restaurant was sort of empty when we sat down but as the sun faded the outdoor dining area did fill up.
In general good food in nice outdoor setting.
We were celebrating my birthday and this was our first visit to Ampersea. Since we were the only patrons for lunch inside (there were 2 people eating outdoors), the atmosphere was somewhat chilly and the music just a little annoying. However, our waitperson, Dahlia, was very pleasant and she took good care of us. The fried green tomatoes were delicious and I highly recommend them. I had the steak salad which was just ok because the tomatoes were mushy. My husband was quite happy with his soup (Maryland crab) and sandwich (buffalo chicken) combo.
I will go back again for dinner. Perhaps more diners and the water view at night will create a better ambiance.
Ambiance and food were good, but the service was sub-par.
This was our second trip in the past several weeks. We enjoyed the first time and really like the outdoor seating. This time we brought out-of-town guests and it was even better than the first time, which was very good. Sat outside again and enjoyed the view, great food, and attentive (but not overbearing) service. The servers left us to enjoy our time there. Also, there were at least two parties going on at the restaurant and it didn't seem to impact the service or the noise. Will definitely go back!
Food was great. Had the bottomless mimosas and sangria options, glass was hardly empty. Beautiful waterfront views away from the noise of fells point.
We went on an evening when everyone was on the patio and no one inside. Excellent food, very good and knowledgeable service and a pleasant improvement over the nearby upscale chain restaurants. I haven’t been here for a few years, but it is still excellent.
What a great date place.
The view was gorgeous. The restaurant is beautiful.
Pretty nice diverse menu.
great spot for outdoor dining right on the water! The waitstaff should be educated on what is vegan vs. vegetarian. Also, the menu says vegan options but most options included dairy.
If you are looking for an absolutely beautiful waterfront dining spot , this is it! If you’re looking for good food and service , look elsewhere!
A very special restaurant--it is almost impossible to find the quiet ambiance in a restaurant with such an innovative approach to food: I especially appreciate the choice of a wonderful vegetarian tasting menu. This is date night at it's very best. Splurge on a bottle of wine--Thierry will take very good care of you!
tables on the deck overlooking the Chesapeake are the best - so serene we could sit there for hours!
The food was amazing and the price was much lower than expected. This was our first time here and we will be going back in about a week for my mother's birthday.
Delicious food, great service, beautiful view! Would recommend highly and will definitely return. Thank you!
To put it simple, this place needs to re-evaluate their customer service skills as well as making sure their servers are very knowledgeable about their menu. They do not accommodate you if you did not like your food which is not okay. When they brought the food out it was also cold which is another odd thing. They guy who pours the water for you is very rude as well. They need to learn some manners as well as proper etiquette and being truly sincere if someone’s experience is not up to par. I highly would not recommend this place. It may look pretty and may be overlooking the water, but the service is completely unacceptable so unless you want to be treated like less than then run away.
Fantastic outside seating area and even better food! Service was great and the overall experience was very good. Highly recommend for a date, get together with friends, etc.
This was my second time dining here. The first visit was bomb and smooth, we came on a late night on a Monday and everything was perfect. However, this go round was different. I didn't expect the food to be exactly the same ( i ordered the same thing both times) but you can tell it was a different chef. If i would've known that I would have tried something new. The reason our visit was sucky was because of the service we received. Our waiter was rude and basically snatched the check out of my hand because she left something on the bill that was supposed to be removed. She NEVER came back to the table, and sent someone else over and told them she was upset. NO establishment have you ever had to pay for something you did not touch. Then the manager came over and basically did nothing. He nor she had NO empathy to the situation. I would rec. this place for VIEWS ONLY!!!
The food was amazing! I highly recommend getting the crab dip and the Brussels sprouts. They are to die for!
Wonderful! Everything was delicious & made to perfection: lobster, swordfish, & cocktails. Beautiful setting to celebrate our anniversary!
Very accomodating. The chef was happy to alter my entre and it was fantiastically delecious.
The view and service at Ampersea were lovely. Our waiter was just the right amount of attentive and the ambiance on the patio is wonderful. Unfortunately the food did not live up to expectation. I ordered the crabcake off of the entree menu and it was inedible. Not sure if the crab was bad or if it was just the recipe, but I could not eat it. And I have a high tolerance for mediocre food.
