Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Great service and a welcoming atmosphere! I've visited twice for dinner and sat at the bar each time. The bartenders are very attentive, and the rest of the staff is equally helpful and friendly. This has quickly become a favorite spot." Carley and Becka were great. I'll definitely be back."
"Sometimes a place just goes above and beyond and you have to leave the review. My husband and I went on a date night here for the first time and LOVED it! I got the “he” crab soup as an app and the filet and crab cake as my main. The soup was phenomenal. True Maryland style. The steak was cooked to perfection and seasoned so well. The crab cake 10/10. G was our server and he was attentive and personable. Everything was amazing! Do yourself a favor and book a reservation asap!"
"INCREDIBLE!! He has been trying to get me to come here since it opened, and I am so upset I did not oblige sooner! I don’t eat red meat, so I got the crab cakes, and honey, they were all crab, ZERO filler!! He said his steak was delicious and required no steak sauce. And I cannot leave out the salad bar! So clean, fresh and someone was always coming to keep it filled. Our waitress was amazing, attentive and helpful. 5 stars is not enough!"
"My husband and I wanted to try something new for our anniversary so we decided to check this place out! The atmosphere inside is cozy and warm and the employees were all friendly and on top of service! We enjoyed the “he crab soup” a MUST have if you go, one cup was not enough! My husband ordered the rib eye and I got the crab cakes! The food was delicious and the salad bar was well stocked and clean! Gian was our waiter and was excellent!"
"The 12 oz. Ribeye steak that comes with the standard $69 meal deal was excellent, as well as the included baked potato and drinks. The waitress was attentive to our needs at all times and the music/atmosphere allowed us to talk and enjoy the meal. Lighting was low and intimate. Not cheap, but comparable or better than other high-end steak places in town in my opinion."
"Absolutely amazing. The tables were WAY TOO CRAMPED. Will only be eating at the bar good forward. But the food was exceptional. I read some bad reviews about the salad bar but it’s probably the best salad I’ve had in a while. Blue Cheese was divine. Would have preferred a salad delivered to table but it WAS good. I had the 8 oz filet mid-rare. Perfectly cooked and melt in your mouth. Loved the Trump Meritage. And service was (again cramped) but exceptional. I would have preferred to not have the tables next to me a foot into my conversation but you live and you learn. Didn’t get any hits in this review but I learned my lesson. Something to think about tho… William and Henry is far more of the intimate experience I am accustomed to. Would have been nice to know in advance."
"Absolutely next level. From the welcome to the server. Even the manager spent some time with us. The food was also served as requested. Rib eye steak was top class. Well done guys."
"5/5 in every category! Delicious food, incredible service! Ashley was our server, and she was not only super-attentive, she was also really sweet. I ordered The Host Choice, and chose the ribeye and baked sweet potato. I also added the béarnaise and burgundy mushrooms. Everything was delicious, including the salad bar and the bread. The wine sauce parfait was amazing, as well. I can’t find fault with one single thing. Everything was excellent, and I plan to go back soon!"
