    Nice atmosphere, great music, tons of TVs. It's pretty big on the inside. Went here this past Tuesday evening with a friend. The peach sangria was sooooo good. We ordered a bunch of appetizers: cheesesteak eggrolls, Mexican egg roll, fries, wings, and boneless wings. My wings were horrible. They were fried too hard, still had tons of hair on it, and were burnt. Could barely eat them. The rest of the food was good. Cheesesteak eggrolls could've been better as well. Service was great though. Definitely going to go back. It's a nice place to let your hair down. The food comes out quickly. Parking available on the side.

    My daughter ordered 4 platters of crab cakes. Two one crab cakes & two two crab cakes platters. The crab cakes were horrible. Too black & crispy. A total waste of money. We will not be eating there. ever again!!! I am so disappointed.

    This fine establishment has been around for 40 years. I don't visit often but on my last visit it was the worst. The crowd: I met a zombie in the bathroom shaking her purse🤕🤮😱 The food: real blah and basic😶 The prices:💯over priced. I won't personally good back to this place Not sure what happened to the quality of the food very disappointing.

    It was great. It was 2 young ladies running the dining area & they did a wonderful job. It was crowded but they handled it. The woman running the bar was phenomenal. She waited tables as well as maintaining the bar. My waiter was Taylor & she was fabulous

    Crabs were good but I did get a few bad ones that they replaced. I Went back the next week they were good still had some few bad ones wrong back for the third week and was told by management I had to order /2 dozen crabs as they don’t sell individuals crabs anymore, of course this was which was very big disappointment as I can only eat about 3/4 🦀 crabs.

    I’ve ordered from here in the past and the pasta was better. When I ordered today it was 85 dollars for the mussels and the pasta. I feel like they robbed me the food was absolute trash. I don’t know what garbage they tried to sell me. The mussels smelled old tasted burned and old and as you can see filled with oil just look at the sauce. The pasta was also disgusting the sauce horrible scallops were inside the pasta when I wanted them on the side there were also only 4 overcooked hard and chewy shrimp in the pasta. This has to be a joke 😂DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY LIKE I DID THE FOOD IS HORRENDOUS

    Neighborhood place recently remodeled. First Maryland crab cakes in seriously, 4 years. Waitress was nice, just not as attentive as she should have been. When I spend $30.00 on a plate, I shouldn't have to ask twice for silverware or be presented plastic utensils when dining in. Otherwise, was a good experience and enjoyed the atmosphere.

    I really liked this place until I came on a particular day that my normal bartender was not there. I came in and was ignored the whole time. I had to be loud and wave for attention and after acknowledgement I was treated as if I had done something I wasn't supposed to by needing service. They were giving great service to the other side of the bar. I saw them ask over and over if they were good. When I needed attention they purposely averted their eyes and acted as if they couldn't hear. I won't be back. I know for sure they were doing it on purpose because I brought it up when i tried to leave and the waitress apologized as if she knew it were true. I'd rather my money didn't go to places that feel like this is ok treatment for patrons of their establishment. They also add gratuity regardless of you being solo or not. This is a bad place to go if you want to be treated well.

    I went around 7 on a Monday and sat at the bar. It wasn't very busy but the bar was full of people. The food, service and vibe were pretty cool. I'll be back to check it out on a weekend.

    I got the large steamed crabs. They were $80 a dozen. They were absolutely delicious. Cooked perfectly heavy and super yummy. And I also had a drink at the bar while I waited for my food, a double shot of Don Julio it was $28. It was lovely there oh, it looks like they had a remodel since the last time I've been there which was quite a while. The bartenders were lovely. I'll definitely go back they had great music.

    I wouldn't go there during the happy hours because it looks very dangerous the atmosphere and the conducts of the crowds scares the Dejesus out of me.

    Called at 7:59 pm on a Sunday to ask if kids could dine in and was told yes by an employee. Arrived approximately at 8:13 pm and was told after 8pm kids are not allowed in. Why would the employee say yes like we would really arrive within 60 seconds? The staff could care less and turned us away, waste of gas and a damper in my husbands birthday as that’s where he wanted to eat. They should’ve left the other side as a family friendly restaurant instead of turning into a liquor store. 0/10 would not recommend this heartless establishment !

    Nice place to go for Happy Hour at good prices. Music was if my liking and not too loud such that you had to yell to hold a conversation. The beer was served ice cold and the food hot and tasty. I had a Rachel sandwich which is a Reuben but with sour kraut. I wish I had taken a picture but I was hungry and did not think about it until most of it was gone. Trust me it was Very Good and the presentation was on par.

    Fried oysters are a JOKE! Look at all ALL this hard unseasoned breading I peeled 😂 and itty bitty oysters on the inside (at the top of the box). Waste of money

    Not sure but I think they're under new management. The place looks brighter, cleaner, staff seems different & more efficient. My crab cake was bigger- that's definitely a plus.

    Good case of you get what pay for! Priced below average and tasted like cheap crab meat mixed with some sort of fish. The gigantic size had me excited until I saw the filler. The baked potato was the best part of my meal.

  • 4/5 Craig G. 5 months ago on Google • 5 reviews
    Crab cakes were great and the woman at the bar made me feel welcome and was sweet. Music was wicked loud, but good. I was also pretty close to the speakers. Ascetic wise...the owner could toss a little at fixing the sign outside and replace some TVs that were out, but overall I dug it.

    My go to when I'm undecided. Staff is great. Food is awesome. Always will recommend. Leave your attitude at home though.

    The raw oysters are delicious. Very urban atmosphere. I always order to go, but I actually had fun one day I ate there. Not my crowd though. Crabcakes are also pretty good.

  • 5/5 Rickie H. 2 years ago on Google
    I like the vibe here, everybody minding their business no drama at all. The bar tenders are beautiful w nice customer service. The drinks are good, and the food is even better ⚘

  • 3/5 Tina R. 1 year ago on Google
    Food: Ordered the Stuffed Soft shell crab it tasted pretty good and came out hot, which was great. The fries tasted good to my friend but tasted weird to me. Service: Our drinks took a long time to arrive at the table. The server blamed the bar for the wait. However, our server did not meet my expectations when it came to communication and attitude. Facilities: I liked the high tables. The women's bathroom was a mess but usable. The lock on the door of the last stall is broken.

  • 2/5 Amber M. 1 year ago on Google
    Horrible customer service and be prepared to wait at-least an hour for your food! Their dine in service is much better !!! The young lady who took our order forgot to put it into the system then told us not to complain about it. We asked to speak with a manager and no one ever came … we doubt she even asked the manager to come over. The food is okay. It taste different depending on how busy they are.

    Have been to The Windsor Inn a few times and each time was a great experience. The food is always good, the music, and the overall atmosphere. I highly recommend the strawberry Hennessy, it's very good and effective. I will be patronizing the restaurant/lounge again. The only issue I had was with the bill, gratuity is automatically added but the waitress asked to be tipped more due to the fact that she wouldn't get the gratuity right away. That's double tipping and to ask a customer that, is a bit tacky and lacks class. Thank you...

    I go to the Windsor inn for food most of the time but it's a nice lounge that does karaoke and plays decent music it's a laid-back atmosphere but there food is good I usually get the 2 crab cake dinner with 2 sides which is about 50 bucks including taxes

  • 3/5 Glitter M. 1 year ago on Google
    The cream of crab soup was good that’s my favorite they just need to add some more spice too it I noticed crab meat but also some meat that had red I would like to know is imitation crab meat being put in it. Ribs were good but need to be served with some fresh bread or something on the side a little overwhelming but great flavor

  • 5/5 SHARON H. 10 months ago on Google
    Great place. The food was awesome & the staff was very polite. Please fix...there isn't balance for your feet we keep sliding out of our chairs.

  • 3/5 D L. 11 months ago on Google
    This place seems to have fallen off. The crab balls back in the day was delicious. This day I tried the crabcake & it was flavorless to me. The lady at the door was the one who seated us/waited on us/and forgot to give us a plate (so we ate food on dish our mozzarella sticks came on & then added $11.51 gratuity to our check for only 3 people. I found that odd, but it's whatever. I told her when she came with the check that we never got a plate for our food. She did apologize. This was my 1st time back after about 10 years. So maybe I'll try it again in another ten years 😏

    I was thoroughly disappointed. First time I've been there since the start of the pandemic almost 2 years ago and to my surprise there was no salad and soup bar. There were no hot rolls. They've totally remodeled the place and it doesn't look nothing like it used to. I'm sorry but I don't like it. I doubt that I'll be back

  • 3/5 Valerie F. 1 year ago on Google
    Service sucked. Maryland crab tasted like a can of tomato soup heated in a microwave extremely hot. DJ was nice people were kool. We came for My Niece BIRTHDAY on a Wednesday night. I don't drink but drinks were to high I bought my niece and daughter a drink it was $29.15 Strawberry Hennessey and a Remy and coke and they said it was watered down.
