    The food was amazing! I had the cauliflower bites and the honey jerk lamb chops. The food was hot on my plate when I received it. BLEW ME AWAY!!! I also had a strawberry lemon drop which also was divine. Now the noise level was loud so I couldn't hear my friends' talking. Two groups were there celebrating. I don't think much can be done about that. Our server was super nice but she was bust a lot and we didn't see her often. Again I don't think much can be done about that. Overall, I would definitely return to papi's for dinner, brunch or whatever meal is being served.

    Way Overrated! 5 star prices, but 1 star quality service. Website dress code is: business casual, - not the case at all. People came in dressed with any and everything on (tennis, spandex, torn jeans, ripped clothing, etc). The chairs were very hard and uncomfortable. The seating is very tight. The hostesses are young kids on their cell phones. There was no professionalism. And what really threw me for a loop was, there is a 20% service fee added to the check, and that does not include the gratuity for the waitress. At a real 5 star restaurant, you don’t have to ask for your water glass to be refilled. The bathrooms were not the best and the floor was sticky. Total RIP-OFF . I try to patronize our African American business, but the businesses don’t support the people that support them. And for that reason, they don’t stay in business long.

    Food was delicious, no long wait, atmosphere was very chill. We had THE BEST waiter/server. My fave was the crabcake egg rolls & warhead shrimp. My husband enjoyed his seafood alfredo. Git a beautiful desert for my bday on the house. I certainly recommend. All staff was pleasant.

    My waitress Octavia was AWESOME! The many servers were great & my order was fine. However, this restaurant was way TOO OVERPRICED! I WOULD HAVE NEVER PURCHASED A DOUBLE CRABCAKE FOR $80, NOR WOULD I HAVE EVER PAID A $51 SURCHARGE TO MY BILL! Thanks, but for those prices I would expect Ruth Chris!

    I was a bit disappointed in my dinner. We drove 45 minutes to get to this restaurant. It came highly recommended so I was very excited about eating here. The food was not the greatest. Definitely would not drive back there. It was suggested to me to order the honey jerk lamb chops because they were so delicious. I ordered the surf & turf which came with 4 lamb chops and about 6 pretty good size fried shrimp on a bed of fries. The lamb chops were indeed delicious along with the shrimp. The food was not piping hot...more like warm when arriving to the table. I also ordered mac & cheese which by the way was $10. It was EXTREMELY DRY....it didn't seem fresh. Iwas disappointed. I always order mac & cheese whenever I dine at a black owned restaurant because my thought process is the mac & cheese has to be delicious....not in this case! It was horrible. I returned it. My boyfriend ordered the fried lobster which he said was "ok" along with brocollini which he said was seasoned well. The drinks were good. I had the pomegranate margarita and he had the mule. As I mentioned...we drove 45 minutes to this restaurant and I definitely will not be back. Not worth the hype at all!!

    The food was delicious, the prices was a little too much but that’s what you get at a lot of restaurants these days. The food came out fast which is good but I definitely felt rushed, it was my birthday and they brought out the cake before I could even finish my food. Overall I enjoyed myself for my Birthday.

    I love coming to Papi's and can't wait until the Owings Mills location opens up. I wish I could remember our servers name because she was super nice and very attentive. This was the second time that she waited on me. The food and drinks were good. The only thing I would recommend is to have the music a bit louder or have a dj there.

    There are no physical menus, only scannable QR codes. The problem was they don’t tell you to connect to their wifi for the menu to open, so that was a slight delay waiting for a server to come over to explain. Other than that and the loud atmosphere (on a Tuesday) everything else was good. The seafood egg rolls were tasty. My stuffed lobster, with sides of kale and asparagus were very good. My husband had the build your own pasta with gigantic shrimp and very tender chicken breast and it was good. They have good size portions and our server was friendly. We definitely plan to return.

    The food was good. The crab cake rolls were amazing. The only issue I had was that the waiter did not ask how I wanted my lamb chop’s cooked, but the chef was kind enough to make new ones. Also, there should Not be a $10 up charge for the macaroni and cheese. The ambiance was nice and subtle. Staff was super friendly

    I’ve been to this restaurant several times and wanted to bring my little sister for her birthday , she said she had such an amazing time and she would like to come back . Our waiter was amazing , he made sure to get us our food in a timely manner . I didn’t like how small my crab cake egg rolls were and he didn’t hesitate to have someone make them over . Everyone food was so good even my 7yr old son said it was wonderful lol . We will definitely return . Thanks again

    My service was subpar. My server barely checked on us, and when we’d ask her for something, she’d completely forget while we just sat there and waited. The double crab cake was listed as MKT price, and when it my receipt came, it was $80, so beware about that. I don’t think I’ll be returning.

    The food was incredible the drinks were strong and good but they need to hire more waitresses it took 10 minutes for someone to come get our drinks order because noone knew who was supposed to serve us.the waitress we ended up having was phenomenal she did her best on doing 6-7 tables by herself,but when u order your food it comes fast.i put on the reservation that it was my husband birthday and they didnt do anything but for the most part i will definitely return just because of the food
