What do you want at the end of a long day of walking around the grand, historic city of Baltimore? A great meal, a warm and relaxing atmosphere and experiencing that well-known service that only Baltimore's restaurants can provide. But, forget about this happening at the highly recommended Rusty Scupper. Disorganized and disinterested service, poor hospitality, and mediocre food is what you'll find. Upon arriving we had high expectations of this dining establishment and we were immediately disappointed. It took over nineteen minutes for a waiter to ask us our selection of drinks and that was only after I requested that this service to be provided. We were told by a waiter, that ""he would take up the slack and it was a pleasure to serve us"". Great service by John! Other personnel need to improve upon their work ethic. The food was mediocre. We were not shocked by the prices, but we were shocked by the quality of the food. The fried shimp was ultra-crispy, the leafy greens in the salads were fresh, but the croutons were stale. Average. This food compared to a fast food entree with the high prices. So, if you're willing to $$ pay for the ambience and not for the food or service, then this is place for you. But, if you're like most, go someplace else.
Pros: Music & View
Cons: Service, food quality and value
