    We were late (out of town family took forever to get dressed) but they were still very accommodating. My mom ordered the smoked salmon but returned it. The manager came over herself to make sure evening was okay and we discovered we have the same birthday!!! The entertainment was outstanding, the drinks were really good, and the food??? Chefs kiss! Highly recommend.

    The food and drinks were really good as well as management. Our waiter on the other hand was not so great. He attended the tables surrounding us but not our table. We waited for almost 30min before he took our order. By the time we got bread and our drinks the bread was cold and hard and drinks were unflattering, needless to say we complained to management who was very accommodating. Overall experience was good just wish we had a better waiter.

    We had a wonderful evening celebrating our anniversary. All of the staff were friendly and welcoming and made our night very special. The food was delicious. We were even given 2 glasses of champagne free for our celebration. The entertainment truly made the experience PHENOMENAL! We came to Monarque because of the opportunity to eat and watch the performers. We are very SAD to hear that the performers will be ending at the end of the month. The restaurant without the performers is just another fancy restaurant. The performers are what makes you UNIQUE. I hope this decision is reversed.

    Had an absolutely amazing time!! The performers were great! Front of house staff was amazing and so so attentive! The ambience was spot on. I’m actually really sad to hear that the performers will be discontinued in a month or so. They really pull the entire atmosphere together and bring tourists to the establishment. (It was the main reason we came) On the other hand, unfortunately we had water spilled on our 6oz fillet with chili butter at our table by our waitstaff, (which happens, we’re all human) but when our lovely waitress brought it back to the kitchen, the chef made the executive decision to send this water soaked steak back to our table and not refire a new one. Being a fellow Chef, I do have to say this was an incredibly poor decision, especially with the cut of meat it was and butter that was served on top of it. That aside, Monarque was such a lovely little place.

    We ordered our food and the 2 tables beside us got their food first and they were seated after us. I was also given the wrong steak once the food came. Then I finally got the right steak I ordered and that was pretty good.

Chris knew the menu and was able to recommend us drinks and food. We will definitely be coming back on Friday or Saturday for the show.

    My boyfriend and I went here for our anniversary and it was truly a great experience! We had so much fun watching the performers and eating some really great food too!!! I’m very glad they have great mocktail options since I do not drink, but my boyfriend also enjoyed his cocktails as well. Highly recommend the Potatoes Gratin and the steak!

    This still remains one of the best meals in Baltimore. Our steaks were cooked medium rather than medium-rare, but otherwise, all of the food was fantastic. Entertainment was a bit lacking, but it was a Tuesday night. All in all, a great night and we'll be back again (but on a weekend)!

    Steaks were good but not to the standard I would expect from the price point. Ordered the rib cab and texture was more consistent with a choice grade filet. Nice environment and extremely nice staff. They were a bit short handed as well but made the most of it. I would give them another try but being honest I was a little disappointed.

    Vibes were great but our $165 tomahawk came out ice cold. We tried to tell the waitstaff and they kept thinking we meant the “temperature” aka done-ness. It was so cold the $8 butter we bought for it didn’t even melt. Our waitress was great though…but that whole kerfluffle put a damper on the night

    Gorgeous place. Fun atmosphere you won't find anywhere else. "Monarque After Dark" was a great piece of entertainment throughout our experience that we enjoyed. My Sea Bass and my wife's Beef Filet were outstanding, however the sides really stole the show in my opinion. We had roasted mushrooms and Potatoe au Gratin, both perfectly prepared and absolutely delicious. They helped us celebrate our 19th anniversary with some bubbly, which was a nice touch. Chocolate dessert left us wanting even more. Already planning our next visit!
