The Collective Offshore

1.4.25Great spot for brunch with a lovely view of the lake. I had a Clipp certificate, formally LocalFlavor, which I purchased for $20 worth of $40 dining. I ordered the Chesapeake scramble and hubby ordered the steak and eggs. Both entrées were delicious. He also ordered a cup of coffee, which he said wasn't great, just average. I also ordered a scoop of the salted caramel, which is to die for if you have a sweet tooth like me.Our server Darius was training and did an excellent job. I was delighted with our service and brunch today. Hubby said if we ever have any family and friends in town, we will come back given the lake view and that they have alcoholic beverages.

We attended the Collective Offshore for a birthday brunch. During our coordinating for our family we ran into a bit of a mishap but our coordinator Rea and management took care of it. And we can't say thanks enough. The menu selection is abundant and everything tasted phenomenal. Our table ordered appetizers before entrees: wings (10/10), hush puppies (11/10...yes 11/10), crab dip (I did not try due to allergies but the table demolished it). While some members of our party were a bit challenging, our waitress was amazing. Her and her team kept the mimoas flowing. The restaurant has a beautiful lake view with an open concept allowing lots of sun inside with the option of outdoor dining (which I am a sucker for!). The only negative aspect about the day was locating parking was a bit challenging as the GPS ROUTES you in the wrong space. Locating and directing our family from out of state to parking was a bit tricky. I suggest arriving early before your reservation to find adequate parking if you are not familiar with the area. Our main entrees also came out a bit cold however I can understand as we were a large party. It still tasted great! I can't wait to return again with a smaller group to really get the full experience. Thank you to the entire team for making the day great!

This is an old Clyde restaurant. I have been wanting to try it and my good friend suggested we visit. It was a quiet weekday evening. Place is pretty bright in my opinion. The ambience gives off quiet vibe with some people enjoying the bar and some dining at the tables. Service was nice. Everyone super polite and responsive. Food was pretty good. And everything was served as ordered. My salad came with scallops and shrimp. It was delicious. They had pumpkin seed dressing. Not bad at all. Chesapeake oysters were the only ones available and they were to die for. Very thick fresh and just delicious. Shrimp on my salad was amazing as well. Grilled to perfection. My friend got soup. And had no complains. Also got salad with steak and loved it So. If you in columbia. Worth a try. Pathing in. Garage across. So. It's a short work down the heel.

The wife and I went for trivia and had a blast. We had to park a little ways from the entrance with a few steps to consider but it was well worth the walk. The view was nice as it sits right off the water and is very spacious and welcoming when you come in. I also loved how casual the place was. We got there early and caught the happy hour. I didn't not love the Prosecco happy hour. Don't be cheap like me, just pay for the upgrade on the regular menu. The burger on happy hour was perfect. The service was great and the crowd was really nice. I would go back to eat for sure.

Offshore is located next to the lake, so there are plenty of great views whether you decide to eat inside or on their patio. They are in the former Clyde's location but the interior has been completely remodeled and given a bit more light and airy feel. The food was excellent. Great seafood selections, as you would expect from the name. I had the Saffron Scampi Seafood Pasta and it was flavorful and creamy. Lots of seafood with half a lobster tail for a reasonable price. My friend shared some of her crab cake dinner with me and it was a respectable crab cake offering considering the local Maryland challengers nearby. The service still feels a little green. Enthusiastic and attentive, but you know when your server hasn't settled into the job yet. Altogether a great dining experience.

Decided to come back to try their Thursday $1 oysters !I was immediately greeted when I sat at the bar and I wanted to order 10 oysters; however, the bartender said you can only order in increments of 6; so I said screw it and got 12. I asked what kind of oyster they had goin and he told me it was "local wilds" he said it might be Blue Points? Anyway they were delicious and I washed it all down with a Mexican beer they had on tap. Total came out to be $23 with tip.

Lakeside Soliloquy.$20 bottomless drink specials. Windows offer a lakeside view. Lobster Hash - chopped potatoes, lobster chunks, and spinach mixed in a heavy cajun sauce. Soup de jour - viscous creamy potato & leek soup. Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs - hints of salmon taste but generally plain. .A warm bowl of soup proved comforting on this cold rainy day. I realize my brunch selections were regrettably overwhelming only because everything ordered was cream heavy. Post meal cholesterol spike hit hard ): Of course the espresso martini didn't help at all but snacking on the soup crackers did! Each dish was good, just unexpected. Personally, I thought the "hash" would be more like a hash brown but c'est la vie..Mulled over life choices afterward by the lake. #toofulltofunctiom

This is our first time returning to this location after Clyde was closed. We are glad this beautiful location finally got to put for good use. Offshore definitely gave out a beachy vibe. We liked the interior beach color theme , looks refreshing and relaxing. And that full water-view just wonderful.We received great service and delicious foods. Lamb chops were so juicy contender; wagyu burger is a must to try. & their specials were attractive as well, only wished we had 2 stomaches to eat more. They have blue cheese olives to go with dirty martinis, which was definitely a plus.Highly recommend & will return.

Came at 2 pm. Didn't realize they were only serving brunch only. Waiter asked managing partner if we could order from the dinner menu. Waiter said it shouldn't be a problem to do so since it wasn't crowded. However, the managing partner said no, they were serving brunch only, so we headed to Season 52 instead, which was excellent. Disappointing Offshore wasn't more accommodating esp. since it was practically empty there and another table of people left the same time we did because they wanted to order dinner and not from the brunch menu too.
