Topside

We had a great time here! The view, atmosphere, and service were excellent. The drinks were so creative and delicious (highly recommend Bright & Hazy). Everyone in our party enjoyed their meal. I had the duck breast, which was seasoned perfectly but could have gone crispier on the skin. Also disappointed in the Nutella Napoleon dessert which was kind of dry and unfortunately their coffee carafe was broken so did not have the coffee I wanted to end my meal. But overall, a great experience! Would eat here again.

This place has been on my list for years and I don’t know why it took me so long to go. The atmosphere and decor were cool, and the views were amazing (there was a beautiful sunset) and the food was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the bread basket (came with 5 breads and 2 butter) and the tuna appetizer. I will definitely be back!

There’s only one elevator to the 15th floor so getting up and down from there can take forever. Love the seasonal cocktail menus. The sangria is always a great choice. Drinks are refreshing and I even like whiskey drinks when I order them from here. I’ve never been so pleasantly surprised at the dessert option for people who can’t have dairy. I’m very used to being handed a sad dry cookie/pastry, but Topside brought me the most amazing mango sorbet I’ve ever had! It did make the waiter very sad when I asked for everything without dairy due to intolerance so I’d appreciate not being told removing the feta compromises the dish when I literally cannot eat feta. It doesn’t help. Otherwise, the food was great! We were super happy to go here for restaurant week after two years of saying we needed to go to Topside for food sometime.

We went to the front entrance of the Revival Hotel and were able to park for free on the street on a Saturday evening. Went inside, down a few steps and took the elevator to the 15th floor. Very nice tiling, ceilings, lights - atmosphere and decor are cute. We got the Tuna Taking - excellent! My husband got the duck and I got the prime rib for main dishes. Both were delicious but honestly the duck was the clear winner of the two! Cooked really well and the sear was perfect. We got the Nutella Napoleon for dessert and if you love Nutella, you'll enjoy it! Beautiful view of the city and the Washington monument. Our server was prompt and super helpful - he answered all of my questions (even silly ones). Compliments to the chef and team on the delicious food and lovely presentation! Would certainly come again!

Great food, drinks, and views. Reservation is recommended but bar is likely to accommodate a couple. I had duck breast and potato leak soup, very tasty! They also have their logo in the ice cubes. Update: avoid the steak, it’s cooked from frozen and not particularly flavorful. The Ricotta and sunset views are nice though.

Went to Topside for a date night. The restaurant, located on the top floor of the Revival Baltimore hotel, had great views of Mount Vernon and the Washington monument. The atmosphere was intimate and modern, and I could not be more impressed by the general ambience of the space. There is a wide variety of seating options; for more social atmospheres, the bar, larger tables, and sofas were available, but smaller tables for two were scattered throughout, making Topside an ideal date location. I recommend making a reservation early so that the staff can accommodate the arrangement you are seeking. In terms of food, we ordered the lobster pasta and the sirloin steak. The lobster pasta was fresh and delicious, and generously portioned with lobster meat despite its rather hefty price of $45. The sirloin steak was a little more rare than I had expected from a medium rare steak, but otherwise delicious and accompanied by a very generous amount of french fries. I recommend either option, though I preferred the lobster pasta. With great service, ambience, and food, Topside is definitely a place I would recommend to those who are looking for a stylish night out with unbeatable views.
