The Bygone

We loved the amazing views! We were here celebrating a birthday, and the staff surprised us with a complimentary ice cream sundae — such a thoughtful treat. If it’s your first time visiting, one thing to keep in mind is that the meal presentation and menu items can change frequently. What we saw in recent reviews didn’t quite match what was on the actual menu, so it’s best to stay open-minded. Also, if you have food allergies, I’d recommend calling ahead to confirm what options are available for you. While most of our selections were fantastic, we felt the steak could’ve used more seasoning — we didn’t end up finishing it. Everything else we ordered was delicious, and the drinks were excellent. In terms of pricing, although many reviews mention a budget of $50–$100 per person, we found it more realistic to plan for at least $150 per person.Valet parking options are available. If you are able to walk or take an uber. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and definitely worth visiting!

I had such a wonderful time at brunch here! The service was amazing — our waiter, Dan, was attentive and very accommodating. And don’t even get me started on the ambiance… the view was absolutely spectacular! I didn’t want to leave. The highlights for me were the omelet station, the waffle station, and the fresh seafood. I customized a crab and shrimp omelet, and it was incredibly tasty. The cocktails were also excellently crafted. I highly recommend checking them out!

🚨 THIS REVIEW IS ONLY FOR THE BAR AREA 🚨 We visited The Bygone on the 29th floor of the Four Seasons Baltimore and it absolutely delivered on everything you’d want from a rooftop bar experience. From the moment we walked into the lobby downstairs, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive—setting the vibe right away. Even on a Thursday night, the bar wasn’t overcrowded at all, which was honestly perfect. It felt like we could actually relax and soak it all in without fighting for space or service. Once upstairs, the views over the Inner Harbor were stunning. They have two gorgeous indoor decks with floor-to-ceiling windows plus an outdoor terrace where you can actually take your drink outside and get those panoramic views. The decor is honestly one of my favorite things about this spot. It’s got this classic, art deco-inspired look—lots of polished wood, tufted leather, rich velvet, and beautiful lighting. It feels upscale and timeless without being stuffy. The bar team was great too. Our bartender was super knowledgeable and friendly, offering suggestions and chatting with us while making the drinks. Service was quick even though it was busy enough to feel lively. The cocktails themselves were solid—very well balanced and tasty. They average around $20 each, which for Baltimore might be considered a bit on the higher side, but for a rooftop in a luxury hotel with those views and that vibe? Totally worth it. It’s the kind of place that really feels special—a fantastic date night spot or a place to celebrate something. Overall, we loved the experience and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to elevate their night out in Baltimore. 5 out of 5 stars from us—The Bygone is one of the best rooftop bar experiences in the city, hands down.

I've been here twice before my most recent visit a few weeks ago on a Friday evening. This was my first time sitting down to dine. The food was amazing. I have no complaints at all. The service was also good. We had reservations, that might make a difference for availability. There is an intimate, dark ambiance with beautiful rooftop views.

Went here on a date during a weeknight, we made a reservation for 8 pm. We were seated promptly, and everyone was very welcoming. The ambiance was quite nice, the views are great, but it's hard to complain about the ambiance and views in a waterfront restaurant. The food was amazing, the chef here has a knack for flavor combinations and presentation, my only complaint was the timing, which was absolutely ridiculous. Took an average of 40+ minutes to get drinks out; they said they had an event going on at the bar which leads me to believe their manager either understaffed them or their bartender(s) weren't up to the task of one event and a restaurant that had maybe 5 tables. While their alcohol selection is good, I ordered two French martinis and got two very different drinks each time, neither of which I would call a French martini but oh well. The house cocktails were good but again all of these were at least a 40 minute wait so that definitely detracted from the experience. Then when the food also took forever to come out, we ended up having multiple long moments with neither drinks nor food on our table. I don't know if the kitchen was having a problem or what was going on but some courses came out at a decent rate and others we were waiting almost an hour for. All in all, it took about 4 hours to get through our meal. For a place with food as good as this I'm very disappointed that I walked away thinking I should've just gone to Charleston, or that their chef worked anywhere else.

Ribeye steak was delicious. It comes with au jus drizzled on top. You can order sides with it. The mashed potato was real creamy cream but it was good. It tastes more like a puree instead of a mashed potatoes. We will be back to try other options. The view is beautiful from the restaurant in the bar area as well as outdoor rooftop seating. The sunset view from the restaurant is also pretty incredible.

We had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. We were seated at a fantastic table with an incredible view, and the staff were all very friendly. The food was excellent, and when our dessert was delayed, we were offered a complimentary one—which turned out to be one of the best I’ve ever had. Looking forward to coming back soon!

Bygone is undoubtedly one of the best restaurants in Baltimore, and our visit lived up to its stellar reputation. Located on the top floor of the Four Seasons, the restaurant offers stunning, immaculate views of the city, especially at night. It's the perfect setting for a celebration, whether it's an anniversary, a romantic date, or even a business dinner. The service was impeccable, and the hospitality was top-notch. Our waitress was attentive and added to the overall experience. As expected for a high-end establishment, the prices reflect the quality, but you truly get what you pay for. The food was delicious and well-prepared, complementing the unbeatable atmosphere. We visited in the winter, so it was cold outside, but the restaurant does offer outdoor seating with breathtaking views of Baltimore for those willing to brave the chill. If you haven’t had a chance to dine here, I highly recommend visiting at least once. It’s a memorable experience that’s worth the splurge for the exceptional quality all around.

Everything was delicious. Service was attentive. The oysters were amazing and so was the crab cake. All around good value for your money (little pricier but worth it for a good quality meal)

I booked a reservation for the Bygone for Mother's Day bc, from what I could see, and had heard, was that the ambiance was incredible. You enter through the Four Seasons hotel, where you're instantly greeted by doormen & can even get Valet if you'd like. There is a garage really close by as well, so pick your preference. Upon entry, there is a hostess on the bottom floor that guides you to the elevator specifically designated for the Bygone's guests, which was a really nice touch. The restaurant is on the 29th floor of the hotel & this elevator only goes there. Once you enter, you instantly feel the vibe of a wonderfully put together restaurant with amazing views. There's a lounge area, where some of the patrons are a bit more dressed down, and the restaurant side, which is a little quieter. Both are great, however, I did book a table for the restaurant side, but was asked if I'd be willing to take a table in the lounge area, which I was happy to do, but I will admit, we felt a bit overdressed on this side of the restaurant. That said, it was still a great experience. We ordered the MD Crab dip as an appetizer, and the Curry Spiced Rack of Lamb, and New York Au Poivre with sides of Mac & Cheese & purée de pomme de terre, and everything was excellent. If I could do it all again, the only thing that I would've changed was my steak - I would've gotten it medium rare, but otherwise, dinner was perfect. The Curry Rack of Lamb was super flavorful and cooked perfectly. For drinks, I had an Espresso Martini & the Mrs had a ginger infused drink. Our waitress was very attentive and polite & even gave us a complimentary champagne toast as well as took photos of us when we were done. I would definitely visit the Bygone again.

We went to the Bygone on Sunday for their brunch buffet. It was an okay sized buffet. I think for the price I should have lived to see more options. We were given a table with a city view. There are a handful of tables set on the inside of the restaurant that don't get as much of a view. Our server was fairly attentive and cleared our plates regularly. Here's a short list of what was included in the buffet: - Prime Rib station - Waffle station - Omelet station - Quiche - Bacon - Smoked salmon - Cocktail shrimp - Oysters - Cheeses & Sliced meats (pastrami, salami, etc.) - Pastries/bagels - Fruit - Dessert table (mini fruit tarts, mini cake, cookies)

I have never updated a 5 star review with another 5 star review, so here goes nothing..LOL! Who doesn't like being treated to dinner and especially one that I consider the best Baltimore has to offer, so of course, I was ALLLL IN!! :) After eating our appetizers and engaged in conversation, we didn't notice that time had gone by without our entrees arriving. Well, our super attentive server did and she apologized and said, desserts were on the house. We thought that was very nice of her, but again, we weren't starving because we did have a little something in our stomachs..LOL! Without noticing, the sun had set and wow, still no entrees. We didn't bring it to their attention, but our amazing server directly told us, entrees will also be on The Bygone because of the unusual issues in the kitchen. The food came out shortly after and the lamb chops and lump crab cakes were delicious. What a classy gesture and amazing customer service. The Bygone had me hooked after my first visit many moons ago and still has me hooked today because they are what I call "class personified"!!!!

Expectations were high, but the reality a bit less convincing. We did do a fairly small reception with a few bites on the go. And at best, it was ok. But either it was nearly impossible to eat certain items without utensils or they were otherwise just mediocre. Service was friendly but slow. Getting a drink to just a little bit more than an eternity. But the view was great, even onto the recently damaged/collapsed Baltimore bridge.

What is love at first sight? I think I've had that happen a couple of times in the last three weeks. Or maybe I'll give the Bygone, love at first bite. First, I've frequented the best of the best restaurants in the world. I've eaten food from the most renowned Chefs. So this review should be read knowing this foodie knows her stuff! What makes food special is the experience and the work that comes with the entire presentation. Presentation of EVERYTHING! Your host, the management, the servers, the waitstaff. Your whole meal can be ruined by the entire experience. The Bygone is nothing short of excellence. It was fine dining at its best. My view was beautiful, we were by the window and were able to see the sun set. I had the best view in front of me but the skyline was everything! Romantic for sure! Let's get into the FOOD: Shrimp Cocktail- the best I've had in a while! Rich in flavor and exceeded all expectations! Crispy Oysters- To DIE for! Literally talked about them hours later. (I need more of these.) Crabcake- Yummy!!!! Curry spiced Rack of Lamb- Flavored to perfection! Mac and cheese was delicious! Asparagus was good. Key Lime Mousse had ginger-graham crumb, marshmallow, raspberry, passion fruit snow and was delicious! Brownie & Banana had brownie & banana gianduja ganache, caremelized banana, dehydrated chocolate mousse, passion fruit crunch, banana ice cream was exquisite! My date said, it doesn't get better than this place in Baltimore. Sad it's taken me this long to come! #madlyinlove

We recently brought in my 30th at the Bygone and it was a great experience! Bottle service, awesome DJ, and attentive staff! This was definitely a 5 star experience.

We haven't been yet, bc looking for late night places that serve food late after concerts etc. Kitchen closes at 10pm usually, but 12am on Fri and Sat

Beautiful decor, wonderful vibe.. the view.. amazing.. and the food was delicious. Our server was Shaneka and she was on point. We had a wonderful table and as the sun began to set, they raised the window covering. All you heard was oohs and ahhhs. We had the crab dip, steak au poivre, potatoes, asparagus, crab Louie salad, some drinks, and the Mac and cheese. Everything was very good. Overall, it's pricey, but a really nice, once in a while experience.

Best drinks we've ever had! My fiancé and I ended our night here just looking to grab a couple drinks! We sat upstairs at the bar and got ourselves an old fashion first which was amazing! The bartender Donovan took care of us the rest of the night. We told Donovan to make us whatever he wanted and he did not disappoint! I've never quite experienced the true art of alcohol until this night! Needless to say my fiancé and I ended up staying 3 hours later than we planned, and had way more drinks than we planned just because we wanted to taste the next drinks Donovan was going to make us! If you want to come here to have the best alcohol experience of your life, you better hope Donovan is there! I will remember this night forever, no exaggeration:) The views were great, and the DJ Was really great as well! If you want to still hear the music but be out of the craziness go upstairs!

Bygone is one of my favorite elegant/fine dinning restaurants in the dmv, the food is amazing, I am surprised they haven't received there first michelin star, I highly recommend getting the dover sole and 36 hour slow cook beef short rib! The service was top tier! If you are looking for a romantic and elegant restaurant, then you need to book a reservation!

Out of all the years I've worked and lived in Baltimore, I never had made my way to Bygone, until now. We entered the Four Seasons and there were many signs that indicated where the rooftop bar was located. Luckily since we had a reservation, we were able to skip the line. We got upstairs and I exited Baltimore and entered NYC or Toronto. The vibe was immaculate. We had a table reserved luckily, so got a view as well. We started off with two drinks which were pretty good. I enjoyed that they had pictures of the drinks on the menu; was a nice small, but helpful touch. Even though we came from dinner, the sides and desserts looked appetizing. We ordered the: 5 cheese Mac n Cheese 5/5 - it was ooey gooey and melty. The cheese pull game was so strong! I was so full, but I couldn't stop eating! Crème brûlée 5/5 - honestly the ice cream made this dessert. It was the perfect amount of crispiness on the top, to creamy on the inside, to cold ice cream. The music was very much old school rap and hip hop and pop. It didn't really seem to match the vibes of the place, but the crowd seemed to enjoy it. I can't begin to talk about the service though. Seriously 100/10. Our waitress was so attentive and answered all and any questions we had about the food or drinks. We even wanted to walk around/go outside that she was kind enough to make sure no one sat at our table. There was a mishap with the bill and the sweet girl would not even accept the tip we wanted to give her, but I still made sure she got it! She also did a small little celebration for my friend's birthday with sparklers and an ice cream dessert. Another server randomly came to our table and gave us 2 glasses of champagne because our "table seemed empty" while we were waiting for our other drinks. I would definitely recommend this place for either a fancy date or a birthday!

As much as I enjoyed the view and decent food and services, I have to admit that the place is outdated and shabby (for one of the most expensive restaurants in the state). I have mixed feelings about the place.

This place is posh. Food is good family style meals so you get to try a little bit of everything. The Mac and cheese was good, Brussels sprouts were divine too. All in all a must try.

I've gone to The Bygone a few times recently for drinks and for their Sunday brunch for the first time. The city views are amazing and it's great to see them at night as well as during the day. Everything at the Bygone is pricey but quite worth it and Sunday brunch was no exception at $75 per person. You do get a good spread of your basic brunch selections like eggs, bacon, fruit, bagels and pastries. But also included are cocktail shrimp, raw oysters, charcuterie spread along with a prime rib, make your own omelette and waffle station. To end the already large selection of brunch items is the dessert table with baked goods such as slices of cake, cookies, macarons, and cupcakes. Everything was really great for a brunch buffet and my dining partner and I definitely ate our fill. The ambience is great and service is quite on point here. Expensive outings at the Bygone but quite worth it for special occasions!

The Bygone is a must when you visit Baltimore! Sexy rooftop vibezzzz. Decor is breathtaking and the service is excellent! Let's get into these views, what more can you ask for. Drinks are delightful & the bartenders J and Jacob were the bestest! Make sure to check them out for girls night or date night! Just don't visit when it's super windy outside like I did! I almost didn't make it to tell the story hahaha. Wind vs Barbie & the wind almost won

The food was good. Not a lot of options on the menu. This is the place to go to as an experience because it's pricey. My sugar topping on the cream brûlée was too thick so I cracked it and sat it aside. 3 people ate and it cost almost $500 we had drinks too. Just prepare your wallet accordingly. Beautiful vistas and great atmosphere. I would go again.

The Bygone is the perfect place to watch the sunset and Baltimore's night skyline. Entering through the Four Seasons hotel sets the expectation for elegance and indulgence. The decor leans towards a masculine feels with the dark and earthy tones interior decor. Loved the velvet padded elevator walls. Exiting the elevator, you're met with an inviting wine cellar. It's a beautiful display. I ordered drinks at the bar. I asked the bartender to make me a twist on the French 75. She made it with Chareau Aloe liqueur. It was delicious. The bar area wasn't crowded. There were couches available by the windows. The outside patio area is nice to enjoy the cool summer breeze. Because of the recent poor air quality, I couldn't sit outside. There is also a tabletop fire pit for colder days. If you're looking for an elegant rooftop with great drinks, and a mature crowd, this is the place to be!

The Bygone, a very top-shelf, fine dining restaurant, holds court on the 29th floor of the sensational Four Seasons Hotel Baltimore. It offers upscale cuisine of the classical American kind, although much of its menu is of a French flavor, along with custom crafted cocktails and an unprecedented whiskey selection. Bygone presents its guests with sweeping views of the Inner Harbor, a nice surrounding touch for ambiance. We didn't dine on this particular visit, so this review is solely for the bar experience. Which was a perfect way to end the night. Every cocktail my party experienced was crafted to perfection, so no complaints here. You might even lose all sense of time and space like we did from intoxicating views and libations one after another.service was unerring, which made it hard to depart, so we didn't we mingled among the city views until the lights came on...SMH ..LOL! OH WELL.. Mine you, the Bygone is not for the thirty, so bring your piggy bank...Lol. I'm definitely anticipating my next visit to take in the breathtaking views overlooking the city. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this experience even if it's only for drinks.

Service was definitely a 10/10. I don't recall our servers name but she was Filipino. Upon walking in we were greeted and seated in about 2-3 minutes. We ordered: Drinks: -2 glasses of Miraval, Côte de ProvenÇe 2022 -classic margarita -caesar salad (6/10) -Bygone signature prime rib (2) (10/10) -36 hour short rib (10/10) -broiled Maryland crab cake (8/10) -old bay poached shrimp (7/10) Sides: mac and four cheeses, pommes purée, and roasted baby carrots (all were great 9/10) Dessert: -2 brownie and bananas (8/10) Different but very good. Overall, from service to views and the food, we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner here. Will be back!

Spectacular views at Baltimore's Inner Harbor food was very tasty, and ambience was very nice. However, I found the rule about men's dress code to be a little overbearing. The service was slightly rushed. The oysters were delicious!!

TLDR: I seriously don't know why this restaurant doesn't have a higher rating. This place is stunning, the food was SO GOOD, and I found the service to be excellent and attentive. GET the gnocchi and mac and cheese, you won't regret it. This was the perfect venue for a birthday we were celebrating, and they made it so special for us. Coming back here for sure. FOOD: 1. [MUST TRY] GNOCCHI (5/5): Top dishes I've had in all of 2023.... Seriously, this was just incredible. The black truffle aioli was to die for. GET THIS. 2. [MUST TRY] MAC AND CHEESE (5/5): VERY GOOD mac and cheese, and I have had a lot of mac and cheese sides in my life. 3. CHICKEN 3 WAYS (4.5/5): Really cool idea and overall delicious, the only thing was that the chicken breast was a tiny bit dry. 4. LOUIE THE CRAB (4/5): Fantastic dressing, fresh crab (though for me, I think fresh seafood isn't my absolute favorite since the crab meat just wasn't very flavorful without the dressing), and HUGE portion. I could have split this with someone else as my main and that still would have been enough food. Very generous amount of crab meat. 5. KEY LIME PIE (4/5): Got a deconstructed key lime pie dessert that was one of the most unique desserts I've ever had. I really enjoyed eating this, and it was plated beautifully, though by the end I wish it was half deconstructed and half a slice of normal key lime pie :) Still, tangy, the graham pieces were delicious, and the meringue was slightly sweet. Overall very cool dessert. 6. [EXTRA SHOUTOUT] They gave us an ADDITIONAL dessert (cake with ice cream and whipped cream on top) with this beautiful sparkler for the birthday. This dessert was simple yet delicious and I've never been to a high end place that has given a whole extra dessert just for a birthday. What a great touch. ----- ENVIRONMENT (5/5): - What can I say, come here for some of the best dinner views of Baltimore. We were sat at a beautiful table overlooking the inner harbor and got to watch the sub set over Baltimore. - Inside, the atmosphere was posh, elevated, and calm. I loved it - Everyone was dressed up for dinner, though I will say that we also came on East Sunday (we had no problem getting a reservation) ----- SERVICE (5/5): - I really loved our server. He was sweet, accommodating, and very attentive. - We wanted to sit by the windows in our area but those tables were all already taken but by the time dessert was served, they were empty. We asked if we could have dessert at the table next to us by the window and they were quick to accommodate, which we really appreciated - They came out with the sparkler but we were waiting to get moved to the new table so we couldn't get a picture with the sparkler in time. Without even asking, the waiter came back with another sparkler and lit it so that we could get pictures. That was the cherry on top of the wonderful night.

My bf surprised me with a dinner here for date night and my experience here was awesome! In terms of views of the city this place beats any place in Baltimore! The food was beyond delicious we got soup, crab dip, I got the ramen with duck and my bf got the prime rib and everything was sooo good! We also had their cocktails! I got the Gin based one and it was yummy. Definitely recommend this place for any occasion!

Recently invited to celebrated a birthday dinner at this restaurant, nestled within the Four Seasons. The impeccable ambiance, complemented by a captivating view, set a remarkable tone. However, the overall experience was somewhat tempered by the elevated prices and a menu that lacked the excitement I anticipated. The breathtaking setting undeniably captivates, yet potential diners should consider the harmony between the impressive ambiance and culinary offerings, ensuring it aligns with their unique preferences. Despite reservations, I may revisit, intrigued by the prospect that the menu undergoes changes.

You will enjoy the Bygone!! So, I will keep this short and sweet! Bygone is quite stylish and gives an upscale vibe without being too pretentious. Everything is pricey, but the service is overall professional and the decor is opulent. The food is delicious as well, but Im not sure if this is the place to come for the food..especially with the price point. But if you want upscale fine dining, you will get it here! The drinks are fantastic as well, and are served with a very fancy presentation. 1 star deducted: after we arrived, we sat at the bar..with plenty of seats available (8:28pm). I asked if we could order dinner, and the bartender told me they stopped serving food at 8:30p in preparation for an incoming private party. So we placed drink orders and turned to yelp to find another nearby place to dine. After about 15 mins, I overheard another bartender quietly tell our bartender to make sure he starts getting last call on food and drinks orders. Our bartender responded "ok", and then proceeded to sheepishly look down while wiping the counter. He did not even make one attempt to correct his earlier mistake, but thankfully I overheard what the other bartender said. So after a minute of him avoiding eye contact, I asked him if they are still taking food orders, and he said "Well..I guess we are", and then proceeded to hand me a menu. Another star deducted: after another 30 mins, more folks were still coming to the bar to sit, and were able to order food and drinks...soooo, what's up with that?? Otherwise, everything went without a hitch...and I would definitely visit Bygone again, but I will be paying attention to the treatment of all patrons.

The Bygone can be difficult to locate, but it is on the top of the four seasons hotel. The views of downtown Baltimore are absolutely stunning, though I wish the space were larger. I came with a large party, and felt like we were not welcome, despite having ordered bottle service and having a table reserved. The drinks at the bar are relatively standard, nothing special, and my gin and tonic was nothing to write home about. I think my experience would've been better if I had gone with a smaller party on a less busy night.

I like the food, service, and atmosphere was amazing. The view from the restaurant was breathtaking taking. We went for my cousin inlawsa 50th birthday. It was definitely a little pricey, but I said it was well worth it.

We've come here for drinks before, which is perfect - the cocktails are good, the views are better, you get to feel like you're somewhere fancy and plush but it doesn't honestly break the bank (cocktails are expensive everywhere these days). If you eat here, obviously you have to be aware it's a "BPSP" restaurant (that stands for big prices small portions... I made up the acronym but feel free to use it), and you generally need a reservation to even get seated. Having said that, the food was pretty good, it's hard to say if it's good enough to warrant the prices but I felt satisfied with everything we ate and ordered. The wait staff was really nice, and if you ask for a window table they will apparently honor your request (at least that's what I heard), so overall it's a nice experience!

The view and the ambiance are what it's all about. Otherwise, I'd put this at Ruth Chris level for where people go to be pretentious and pretend they're ballin. The food is too expensive for my blood (good thing I wasn't paying the one visit when I actually ate!) and the portions on some of the food items my companions got were TINY given the price of them! I ordered the prime rib, which was actually pretty good, but the au jus was lacking in flavor. My side of asparagus was also good, but there were only like 5 or 6 of them. Those 2 items alone cost $75. Decent beer selection, and all the cocktails are very pretty. I definitely enjoy hanging out at the bar more than sitting at a table to dine. Much like other reviews I've read, I suggest eating elsewhere and having a nightcap at The Bygone. It'll make you feel all grown and sexy!

~ Bygone is my spot. Friday-S nights are meant for Bygone Vibes. Beautiful people.. Beautiful view... Amazing staff. I love the drinks here & if you love experienced bartenders, that are detailed & fun... Seek my guy Juan when you arrive. Best of the best! I haven't been here for dinner yet; instead, I go to enjoy the party atmosphere. I love this place and will continue to enjoy come while the weather is beautiful. As you can see, this review isn't about the food that much. I did order some oysters, which were delicious tho. Lol. ~

The current staff is the best, very laid back and flexible unlike some of the other uptight high-end restaurants in town. The food is always outstanding. The desserts sounded so good I had to order all three and they did not disappoint, truly gourmet in every way. The Atlas Group management went out of their way to help me with some special attention for my 85-year-old father which really added to the dining atmosphere and was ultimately a priceless experience.

This rooftop restaurant is on a high floor at the Four Seasons Baltimore. Very pretty inside & the views are lovely. On weekends after 10pm the bar turns into a very loud nightclub. Wasn't a fan but thankfully we had reservations on the other side for after-dinner drinks & dessert. Celebrated our 23rd wedding anniversary & they did acknowledge it with a complimentary dessert.

We took my in laws to The Bygone last night for drinks while they were visiting. They loved it! The service was wonderful & can't top the views. Only knocking down one star because we thought the dress code was silly. I understand the why behind it but feel it should be advertised properly. They had my husband put on a jacket lol. Otherwise it was a great experience & we'd take family or friends back again!

I was dying to try this place. And one night after dinner, we came here for drinks. It was a week day night so it wasn't very crowded so it was perfect. Wonderful views of baltimore. Given the location, I think the prices were appropriate. Enjoyed my experience here and would come bacm

The Bygonesl has been on my list of restaurants to try for a while. I was excited to celebrate my birthday there with my family. I read the reviews before dining there, and my expectations were high. I ordered a crab cake mac and cheese. Whoever thought it was a good idea to add tarragon to a crab cake, is not from Maryland. The highly recommended mac and cheese was not worthy of a second bite. The sauce was runny and completely devoid of flavor or cheese pull. There was no melding of complex flavors like cheddar, Gouda, blue cheese, or Parmesan. Even Velveeta would have been better. I won't be back. EVER.

Visited The Bygone last night for my birthday dinner. I had high expectations that quickly fizzled. Wait staff weren't very attentive to me it made not want to get dinner actually. On top of the menu not having much range (the menu is very similar to Ruth's Chris) and there wasn't an aroma of seasoned food in the air. I had a feeling the food would disappoint me, I decided to stick with dessert. The crème brûlée was really good! The city skyline views are the highlight, the decor reminds me of the old 20's and every dark. The views of Baltimore are great but I'm sure I would only return for drinks in the future or maybe brunch.

The restaurant had a great vibe and view. The staff were knowledgeable about the menu items and the food was delicious.

This was my very first time visiting Bygone . The ambiance was amazing. It was very grown and sexy. My girlfriend & I did not have a reservation and we were able to be seated on a Friday evening with no wait . The staff was very friendly and the menu had great option's . The food tasted good but I felt like it could have been better . After eating we visited the bar section. It had a nice vibe and the outdoor view was beautiful.

Located at the top of the 4 Seasons, The Bygone offers a brunch, dinner, bar & lounge menu, as well as an extensive beverage list. While we were in town for a work trip, we came here for an evening get-together. We ordered the following to share within our party: +Snow Crab Claws - served with Old Bay butter, cocktail sauce, and dijonnaise; the snow crab claws were slightly fishy in taste +Big Eye Tuna Tartare - with black garlic, jicama, avocado puree, kiwi, pickled red onions, and culantro; an interesting mix of the tuna mixed with avocado +Oysters on the Half Shell - served with pink peppercorn mignonette, horseradish, green apple-celery foam, and basil oil; oysters were fresh and well-shucked +the Caviar Service - with shallots, capers, eggs, chives, creme fraiche, brioche, and blinis; a nice experience! +Seared Foie Gras - with persimmon, minus 8 vinaigrette, toasted brioche, duck fat powder, and frisee; this was more on the bland side +Grilled Spanish Octopus - with sweet potatoes, lime, castelvetrano olives, pomegranate, and pine nuts; the octopus was slightly overcooked, which made it rubbery +the Koji Aged Prime Filet Mignon - with epinards a la creme, potato croquette, trumpet mushrooms, and blue cheese-tallow butter; this was overcooked, which made it dry; we weren't impressed with this +the Dover Sole - served with lemon-brown butter sauce, onion-garlic relish, and celery; more on the saltier side, so watch out if you're monitoring your salt intake! The view is great, as they have floor-to-ceiling windows where you can soak in the B-more lights. Try to request a table by the window! Service was more on the inattentive/non-existent range - it was hard to place orders, obtain refills, and get the check at the end of our dining experience. +inattentive service +great views +request window seating

The food was fantastic ... The service was good ... The staff was a little slow on bringing things requestef to the table ...I e. Cheese, drinks, water, but overall my experience there was great. Would I go back? Yes!

Went last night with my partner to get drinks and dessert. The view was amazing, the expresso martinis were delicious, and we enjoyed our couch table. It was nice to sit and people watch while we enjoyed our drinks. The service got a little slow late at night but the servers were super sweet and helpful. I would come back again. I wish they had a bigger dessert menu.

Came here for some good drinks in a classy bar with nice views and that's exactly what we got. Highly recommend for a date night. Beautiful spot.

I am a rooftop connoisseur, so when looking for the best rooftop bar in Baltimore, this was the recommendation. I planned to come for cocktails at the bar and enjoy the views on a Saturday night. If you have the same idea, then make sure you get there well before 9pm since the DJ comes at 10pm and they remove all of the seats at the bar. The bar area then becomes the dance floor with the tables at the two viewpoints being first come first served. Otherwise, the drinks were fantastic, and the views were spectacular.

Pros: - Stunning view of Baltimore at night - Delicious drinks (espresso martini with shaved coffee bean on top! and paloma) - Luxurious ambiance - Fire-pit outside for the winter nights Cons: - Extremely expensive drinks (~$20+ each) - Wait for drinks is extremely long - Wait to take the elevator up and down was also long Will return for the view and a drink or two, but may try to go during a not-so-popular time!

Spectacular views from the 29th floor of The Four Seasons in Harbor East. Incredible cocktails. Incredible apps. Get the amazing ahi tuna and halibut on crostini. Lobster Mac & cheese was delish. Fusion flavors with a flair. The ribeye topped with steak was on point. Upscale restaurant with a dress code. Be prepared for a super high bill. A party of two can easily exceed $500 or more.

There are a few aspects to Bygone: dinner, brunch, and nightlife. Dinner at Bygone is expensive, but you get what you pay for. I highly recommend the rockfish ceviche, grilled octopus, and the 36-hour short rib. But, no matter what you order, it'll be cooked to perfection. The Sunday brunch is quite a spread, with prime rib, oysters, and an omelette station in addition to the standard brunch fare of salads, desserts, and pastries. At $75 per person, it's still a good value. At 10 pm, the restaurant bar area turns into a nightclub with a DJ. The drinks are decent but expensive, however there's no better view in the city (though Topside is comparable). The music is mostly pop, hip-hop, and a little house, though it depends on the evening and the DJ.

Omg...where do I start. Fine dining? Absolutely! This is located inside the Four Seasons Hotel. There was someone that directed me towards the elevator abd told me to wait there, someone would be done to get us. Upon arriving, we were escorted directly to our table ( reservation honored at exact time). The ambiance was gorgeous, inviting, serene and I loved it. I had the roasted duck, I would've preferred some more seasoning, but it was cooked well. I will definitely be returning!

This is a lovely restaurant with a marvelous view. The server was quite pleasant and helpful. The food was tasty and well-presented. I appreciated that there were alcohol-free cocktails available. Could really appreciate coming here for drinks overlooking the harbor, which is what many finely-dressed clientele were there for during our stay. We had a party of 9 with a reservation at 7. We ordered 3 seafood towers (and they brought a special one for someone with a shrimp allergy), bottles of wine for the table, a few first dishes and dinner, as well as desserts. So in that context, I will say that we didn't end up leaving the restaurant until after midnight, shortly after completing our desserts. It took over an hour to take anything other than our drink orders, and another 30 - 40+ minutes to take our entree orders, which added significant delay to us getting our meals, which I'm sure is due to hand-crafting in the kitchen. But it was nearly 10:30 before we got our entrees. I eat late at home (like 9pm), but this was a bit unreal. Luckily we had good company and nobody was cranky-pants so it ultimately worked out, but there was definitely some efficiency that could be improved. High quality ingredients, well prepared. Willing to give them another try, but probably not as a large party again.

I came here for my anniversary, and I was stunned from the minute I got in the elevator to the Bygone. It was a little difficult to find it initially with my gps but totally not their fault. Nonetheless, I thought the decor was nice and the seating booth we were brought to a super cute. We were attend it too pretty quickly. the menu is it super expensive, but they definitely have something for everyone I'd say. My cocktail was delicious. I got their version of a Moscow Mule. I got the scallops as an appetizer and I got the lamb chops as my entrée. The scallops were really nice, great, consistency, and flavor. I didn't really care for the green sauce they had paired it with on the plate. The lamb chops were super juicy and really good. I'll definitely be back for those. After dinner, I was able to go out to their deck and enjoy the view of the city. Definitely romantic and very enjoyable in the spring or summer time. All in all I had a great time and would recommend it to anyone going on a date anniversary girls night or birthday.

As per usual this establishment nevers fails to amaze me! Amazing views of the entire cityscape paired with some of the best craft coctails in the area (strong too) I try to treat myself to one of these experiences as often as possible because it just gives you a completely different vantage point of Baltimore city. The food unmatched! I ordered the King Salmon eith some pitatoes and was stuffed although it looks like a small portion I assure you its enough to fill your belly!
