Casey's Bar and Restaurant

Some may suggest I give out too many of the five star reviews but you know what...if it's worth it, it's worth it.

Casey's is, for lack of more sophisticated word, awesome! A bar and restaurant right off the Loch Raven exit of 695, Casey's offers great food, service and ambiance (another big word) that should not be missed. Although unassuming, from the outside, I know what you're thinking, another barish type place, the menu is surprisingly diverse and packed full of great original options as well as the standard fair. There is way too much to go over so I will let you know what my current favorite app, entree and dessert are. The rest, you will have to discover on your own.

App: Seared Ahi Tuna. Outstanding. Always fresh generous portions with a wasabi sauce this is never disappointing.

Entree: Parma Pizza: Prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, parmesan, Roma
tomato and fresh basil. Wow. Great combination for a pie. Love love the prosciutto. Side note the other pizzas are fantastic as well.

Dessert: FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING HOLY - FRIED CHEESECAKE!!!!! This will rock your word. There may be a very slight hint of banana (the girlfriend and I argue about it as I don't really taste it at all) but regardless this is a phenominal yet simple dessert so PLEASE SAVE ROOM!

The waitstaff and bartenders are always great and you will see the owner Casey walking around all the time so make sure you say hi!

They have a great little outdoor patio that's covered and perfect for the summer.

A great, fun casual neighborhood place to eat that I highly recommend. Did I mention the cheesecake?

I can't give Casey's the fifth star only because of the decor in the dining room and I will only go if I can sit in the bar.  Sorry, Casey. Let me know if you'd like some original Baltimore-centric photography.  I can provide it.  But the food is great and the service is like a well-oiled super nice machine.  They have a half-price wine night (Tuesday? Give them a call.) They are famous for their chicken pot pie, but prepare yourself, it's humongous. Very good pizza too. Everyone in the place looks happy. That is a good thing!

The meatball sub and cheesesteak served up well with the house combo wings (hot sauce and old bay) on special were filling and tasty. We dropped in on the way home while running errands, and were well served by the bar staff and enjoyed talking it up with a few regulars.
