   Superior customer service. Excellent food and drinks. Loved the “snake bite”. Great restaurant experience.

   Each time I have dined at Blackwall's, I have had a really good experience . The food is always excellent and the service superior. It is my favorite restaurant in Columbia, and the great ambiance adds positively to overall experience as well.

   I had an amazing dining experience at this restaurant! The pasta was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. The roasted Brussels sprouts were a fantastic side, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with just the right amount of seasoning. The Maryland crab soup was the highlight—rich, hearty, and packed with fresh, flavorful crab. The service was exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff who made sure everything was perfect. The combination of great food and excellent service made this meal truly memorable. I can’t wait to come back and try more dishes!

   My family went to Blackwall Barn & Lodge in Columbia for Sunday Brunch. This was our first time there so our server led us to the buffet room, where none of the hot food was out. There were raw oysters which we brought back to the table and when the first one was lifted there were worms underneath of it. We reported the incident to 4 various workers during our time there (busboy, waitress, manager, another busboy) and all seemed unworried. One even replied with, "thats because they are fresh." The oysters stayed out on the buffet and we saw other people return oysters grabbed off the same bar presumably for the same reason. The rest of the food was good: overcooked/fried home fries, pre-packaged/dry deserts, great omelette station, great shrimp & grits, their meat cutting station was questionable with the temperature of the meat. Service was attentive. Gratuity was automatically added to the bill for 4 people and an upcharge to use your credit card. But, the unwillingness to fix the oyster problem is an issue and I do not trust this establishment in Columbia and now question their establishment in Odenton. To the workers there, make an effort to Scrub the outside of the oysters please. Your gonna get someone sick.

   It has been a long time since I have eaten an outstanding meal at a restaurant or write a review for that matter. This was my first time eating here. Everything from the start was perfect. Our server which happens to also be the bartender sat us in the bar section. There was 4 of us and we sat in a very comfortable booth in the bar area. I don't even think I have received service as well as I did today. He knew everything about the menu, gave us very detailed information in a very efficient way. He knew when we needed him even though several people just walked up to the bar requesting service. He was so very attentive. I recommend going there at noon on a Saturday and ask to be seated in the bar area. I can't wait to go back. Everything was delicious from the brussel sprouts appetizer & wing appetizer to our meals. I got the chesapeake pasta dish and it just melted in my mouth. Couldn't even finish half of it. The seafood is plump and juicy, pasta looks and tastes homemade, the shrimp were nice and plump and crab meat delicious and plenty of it. I could go on. My husband got the lamb shank, he couldn't even finish his meal and my husband is a very very good eater. It was huge and meaty (he said it's not a 3 bite type of lamb shank) and the sides that came with are good enough to eat on their own. I didn't pay too much attn. to my brother and sil's dish but they couldn't finish their food either. Last minute I ordered a piece of their smith island cake to go. It's great to share with another person but better to eat it all by yourself! Thank you for giving us a memorable experience Blackwall Barn & Lodge! As Arnold says "I'll be back" lol, just kidding but seriously I will be back!
