EDGEWATER, MD — Harper's Waterfront Restaurant opened last Friday in Edgewater after months of anticipation. Reservations are required as the business gears up for its initial rush.

The waterfront steak house and seafood eatery was the talk of the town as it neared completion. Foodies eagerly awaited the Wagyu beef presented on a garnished cutting board and the jumbo shrimp cocktail served in an ice bowl.

Edgewater resident Todd Harper launched the "casual, upscale" restaurant at Turkey Point Marina & Yacht Club. Harper also owns the marina, which sits just off the South River at the crux of Ramsay Lake and Selby Bay.
