The Greene Turtle

The Bartenders and managers are racist and judgemental. My partner and I went in there on a Saturday night it was crowded but wasn’t busy coz everyone was enjoying the game. There were about five people behind the bar who were able to serve us but didn’t pay us any attention, we requested a crab dip and menu and two waters finally after 20 minutes of trying to get the bartenders attention. He then trussed to serve us

I came in here with my girlfriend on Nov. 28^th, 2015 with decently high hopes.
Unfortunately, the food was fairly disappointing.
We shared an order of boneless chicken wings (16 set), with half Maryland sauce and half Parmesan Garlic. The Parmesan Garlic was okay — not outstanding, but okay. The Maryland sauced ones were so dry and so salty, we couldn’t even finish them.
Then when our food arrived, we weren’t any happier.
I got the Thai Pork Tacos. They were very bland, and I could only manage to stomach down half of one before I just simply couldn’t finish. My girlfriend got the Chicken Chesapeake sandwich. It was slightly better than the tacos I got, but I definitely wouldn’t recommend it or anything.
In fact, the only things that we would say were «good» (not necessarily great, but solid) were the side orders of fries and salad, and the service. Our server, Aly, was nice enough. The salad was pretty good and so were the fries. The ambiance was fairly nice as well. These things saved The Green Turtle from a 1 star review.
Overall, although not the worst, it was a fairly disappointing experience. We were particularly upset because there were other eating establishments in the vicinity where we could’ve gotten something tastier, more enjoyable, and just as filling for a much, much better price.

I would give no stars if I could. This is the worst bar in Fells Point. No beer selection — they ran out of beer on the weekend in Fells Point. Gross, unclean bathroom with ½-​inch of water on the floor. Worst wings I have ever eaten. Undercooked and over sauced. Surly waitstaff. I would drink from the harbor before I would come back.

So i def thought the green turtle in dc was nicer it was newer and cleaner but none the less…
We were here for happy hour GREAT HAPPY HOUR DEAL! They were generous with the pour and my drinks were cheap, the appetizer deals were good.
My dessert the monkey bread tasted old? Like not quiet stale but certainly getting there. Maybe they dont have good turnover, dont order the desserts.
Overall i think its a great place for a cheap happy hour plus I think the green turtle logo is adorable! Be more careful with the food there tho.
Oh the service is about average nothing special, no real complaints.

Great spot to watch a game with really good food. My husband is a huge fan of the Sriracha wings and I like the burgers. Their biggest shortcoming is the service quality when they are busy. It becomes a challenge to get a drink refill and you could experience a long wait for a food order.

Ok so I’m willing to admit I’m a bit of degenerate and the reason we stopped in here was we remembered there was Keno from our last visit. We took a seat at the bar and the bartender was very nice and we never had to wait long for a drink. They definitely had good prices on the 22 oz beers. I will say though John Taffer might have had a problem with the temperature of the beer. I won’t say it was warm but it wasn’t as refreshingly cold as I would have liked considering it was pretty hot outside. Overall I like this place for the Keno, plenty of TV’s to watch a game and the good prices.

A perfectly ordinary pub food joint — nothing special, but nothing disappointing, either. Decent burgers and drinks and everything else you’d expect from a place like this.

It was a slow Monday night so there was only one waitress covering the bar area and the outdoor seating but the team work put in made up for that. I had just missed happy hour but the $ 5 margaritas made up for that.
Now my meal… I was told to try the PBJ burger (Yes that’s Peanut Butter and Jelly) was ridiculously good! It’s a must try for anyone that calls themselves a foodie! Good times and great food!

Sure it is a dive bar and took forever to get our food, but what we got was good food. Think of all the other bars you’ve been to that just serve crap garbage. There’s quality junk food out there to be had.
The food here is pretty good for what it is. The crab dip Burger is simple, and not very crabby but is good nonetheless, no additional condiments needed. The crab mac and cheese, again, not very crabby but has a great cheese to mac ratio. The mac is flavorful and has definitely spend enough time in the oven with the sauce to absorb the flavors.

Came here for happy hour. They have great happy hour specials including 2−4−1 drinks and reduced price appetizers. The bartender was nice and the drinks were made just right. The bar was pretty empty and I was shocked because the specials were pretty good. The food was pretty good also. I had the crab pizza which was crab dip on flatbread. It was kind of salty but still good. I also had the sweet potato fries which were slightly dry but the bartender suggested that I try it with Thai chili sauce and when dipped in the sauce it was delicious.
My friend had the crab cakes which she said was good but the not the best crab cake.
Overall, I would say if you’re looking for a good happy hour deal this is the place to go.

The food is terrible! utensils are not clean at all and don’t order any juices here especially the pineapple juice cause you will be very disappointed!

With so many Fells Point bars, I rarely visit the Greene Turtle, but my friends and I had a great experience last week. A group of six of us rolled in after Orioles opening day festivities and were happy to escape the crowds. The staff did not mind one bit that we took over the tiny back room with arcade games. We were able to freely set up flip cup and beer pong, as well as order «shit tons» of food items. The food was hot and delicious– especially good crap dip served with soft pretzels. The server, Shawn, and the cook were super awesome. Both were happy to serve us and enjoy our sense of humor. I will be back simply for the kindness they showed to our group!

If ever given the choice to return, I’d flip a coin. Heads for The Green Turtle, Tails for somewhere else. If the flip of the coin ends with Heads Up… I might try two out of three. Here’s why.
I was traveling from BWI, just south of Baltimore to Las Vegas, Nevada. I had a few hours to kill so I decided to try and have lunch at The Green Turtle.
Upon entering I noticed a very large bar. I am not drinking so, I wait for a server to seat me, the were a few employees at the front «host stand» and hardly anyone seated in the dining area. I was told to «go ahead and pick any seat.»
Once seated, my server asked for my drink order, I chose a «Green Turtle Root Beer» (see picture). It tasted like IBC Root Beer only with a Green Turtle label thrown on the bottle.
This is what caught my eye when looking at the menu:
CRAB FLATBREAD PIZZA
Our signature crab dip, melted mozzarella, and flavorful Old Bay® baked on a warm flatbread.
I wanted to try something different and it was that, I liked it, but it just didn’t catch my attention like I had hoped.
If the flip of the coin ends with Heads Up… I might try two out of three. If heads wins a second time, I’ll just choose something else from the menu.

Oh my God, a chain restaurant in Fells Point! Yep, calm down and get over yourself! Came here with a work group and we had a nifty time. Decent selection of brews and cocktails. Best fried pickle spears I have ever had and each order has eight, large spears. Their hot crab dip was yummy and worth the calories splurge. Attentive service and the bartender was easy on the eyes. Good place for groups. Not a romantic, date type of place but that’s cool as long as they keep the pickles on the menu and Mr. Dreamy behind the bar.

your typical bar scene. However our bartender was very sweet (Ashley) and made it a fun experience for sure.
Nothing set it out from the crowd however, and this side of town was a bit rowdy for me. (I was here for work, maybe it was just seemed that way after a long day :))
I really liked the live band that was playing country music, that was a fun touch!

Id give this place a zero if i could. I went in and sat at the bar. There were maybe 6 others at the bar with drinks and two parties seated at tables; not busy. The bartender is at the other end talking and shooting the shit. He sees me and continues. I look over a menu that’s laying on the bar at least 3 times and then put it down. No bartender comes over, in fact, he goes in the back. I got my things and left, never to return again, ever, with that type of service. Guess it is the same bartender others mentioned.

Don’t eat here — food is bad quality and doesn’t taste good. I have been there only once for an event hosted by our condo and specifically asked to the bartender if the food was catered or made in the house. She has confirmed that it was made by them. I have tried Mac and cheese with bacon — nothing special, way too much overcooked pasta and cheap flavour. The salad was past due, the meatballs were okay/​poor according to my friends. Disappointed overall, the two stars are for the super nice and friendly blond bartender (I forgot her name).

Coming to Fells Point and going to a Greene Turtle is equivalent to traveling to Europe and eating at a Ruby Tuesdays, it just completely defeats the point.
One the plus side it’s cheap and the service, at least at the bar, is fast and friendly. The food however is pretty much Denny’s quality. Considering all the great options in Fells there is no excuse for anyone eating here unless you are just so bombed that it doesn’t matter.

I don’t get all the horrible reviews here. Granted I was only here for business and had about 30 people ordering drinks all night so I suppose we took over at least half the location. For what it is though, I thought the food and massive beer selection were hard to match anywhere.
Good, solid bar apps (this ain’t a Michelin starred restaurant people, temper your expectations) that fit the billing, and oh my the beer selection. Great recommendations from the bar keeps and with those apps downed, it called for a solid first night in B’More.
Come here, grab a quick bit, grab a beer (or two, or three, or four) and then make your way around Fells Point here and see what the waterside Fells Point has to offer. Not much, but a solid night out nevertheless.
Cheers!

Just keep walking… Way to many other places to choose from!
We stopped in for a drink because we heard it was a fun bar. Ya not so much!
The bar service was slow and I always wonder why when the place was empty?
I will never go back due to the clientele… I went to use the restroom and wash my hands. Well, I was unable to do that because there was a woman taking a sponge bath and would not move. It was just gross!
I walked out and used the men’s (of course) Scary thing was I never saw her come out. Just a weird experience!
