Wow, just wow! This place is actually a little unbelievable. It's street presence appears to be a small restaurant, but it's huge! It's also extremely good! Our waitress Krystal was amazing. I don't mean just the fact she took care of all of our needs, but I mean she had a house full and everyone was served and happy. She was constantly on the move. They have so many great foods I would not do it justice to name them all. The Ahi tacos were awesome, the lobster roll was as delicious as I've ever had. The roll and the lobster was so perfect, moist, and buttery. The beers were a great selection that had many from PA and MD Craft breweries. They have TVs everywhere, but didn't have the sound up so you couldn't have a conversation if you wanted. The rooms are separated so you can have event and reserve a room. The outside area for dining was spectacular, with tables that have umbrellas and a separate area with a roof. The menu had so many offerings, and they are authentic like the crab cakes (even though it's not in MD). Rarely do I give all 5 stars, but they deserve it! Please try it, you'll like it.

Came here on New Year’s Eve with the family. Food was exceptionally bad and pitiful. The cream of crab soup and the pub pretzel were the only bright spots of this pub. These two items were good, but nothing to rave about. Now, onto the disaster items. The chicken tenders were lacking any flavor, very dry, and not enjoyable whatsoever. The Buffalo Mac & Cheese was the worst… the Buffalo chicken was coated with a nasty tuna seasoning and the Mac & Cheese tasted vile with another odd fishy sauce on the Mac & Cheese. After all this, I decided to order a burger, to be safe. I go ahead to order the burger and the waiter advises me that we can’t order burgers to cook rare, medium rare, etc. only “pink or no pink.” I never heard of an establishment that was incapable of cooking a burger to the customer’s preference… I was dumbfounded. However, my mom who ordered a burger which is pictured below got the “pink” burger and it was medium well/well. I avoided that idea and went with onion rings. The onion rings were bland and packed with salt, couldn’t taste any onions in the onion rings. It was a terrible experience overall with the food. The service we had was subpar. The waiter Connor was quick and responsive, however was unacquainted with the menu and when my fiancé asked what dressing came with her salad, he said “I don’t know, it’s some sort of green stuff.” Very unprofessional response to a basic question about a salad. Connor also didn’t know about the “no filer” crab cakes and had to ask for clarification. Overall, a very disappointing experience and we will not be returning here. Buyer beware.

I've eaten at Trio 5-6 times. I always enjoy the food, which is why I keep coming back. I love their wraps (and the fact that any of their sandwiches can be made into a wrap). Highly recommend their wings with boom boom sauce. The reason I give it 3 stars is the service is consistently not great every time I go, regardless of whether it's lunch, dinner, weekday, or weekend. The bar is always busy with what appear to be regulars. I'm rarely greeted when I walk in and everyone at the bar just stares (including the bartender) while I find a seat. It's super uncomfortable. I've had a few mistakes made on my orders, but they've always been quick to correct them. Like I said, the food is always really good. I've noticed that I'm usually one of the only ones eating in the bar area - it seems like a lot of people (again, apparently regulars) just come to drink and hang out. Which is fine, I just wish it was a friendlier crowd. I frequently feel forgotten about by the bartender and have had to chase them down to ask for refills or checks. Sometimes the food can be REALLY slow coming out of the kitchen. I'm sure they're short staffed due to covid so I don't really blame them for this and I just have learned to plan a little extra time. The fact that I don't feel super welcome here has become a bit of a deterrent and I decided after today's visit that I'll just get take out going forward.

To start, i have a gluten allergy and noticed they have a GF Crab Cake sandwich listed on their menu. However, the bun that is listed in the description is NOT gluten-free and that is not disclosed within the item description. Looking at the menu, it shows that it is a safe item for GF people to enjoy. When I told the bartender, she didn't seem to care at all, and so basically, I wasted $25 for a meal I couldn't even enjoy. Had to order another meal with zero help from the waitress on making any effort to help me or offer any other options or remake it so that it actually is a GF meal. All she said was, "I don't make the menu," and walked away. As a first-time visit, this was horrible and disappointing. EDIT: As I was putting on my coat, the snippy bartender instructed me to remove my review since she did end up taking the sandwich off my bill, which thank you I appreciate it, but I will not change my review. My review is accurate of the experience I had at this establishment, and I would love to have a conversation with a manager about this situation and how to avoid other people with allergies from making this same mistake.

Get to the restaurant we get our drinks and put our daughter’s order in but server doesn’t come back until 30 minutes later to take our order since they have runners for the food. The food was awful, the Mac and cheese tasted like the most artificial cheese sauce in the world, when we came there was only two other tables yet we waited over an hour for food which a runner delivered, our server never checked on us after our food was delivered, had to get another server to bring us our check, a different server cleaned our table all the while I see our server just standing in the back. Our server literally did NOTHING and then was watching me as I put cash on the table , clear to say I left no tip because she didn’t serve us , I have been here before and it wasn’t the greatest but I gave it another chance and it was the worst restaurant experience I have ever had.

I always love the food when I come here. It's great quality and consistency is always there. The turkey club sounds so simple but is one of the best things I have had in a while. Last night I had the Cobb salad and added shrimp and mandarin oranges. It was very fresh and I am already craving it again. However the service is poor. The servers are not that friendly and you end up waiting for a while for a drink or someone to notice you. Which is very frustrating when you are a paying customer and your time is valuable. I do keep coming back though since I like the low key environment and the great food. Service needs to definitely improve though.
