Ouzo Bay is a restaurant based in Baltimore, Maryland. It is owned and operated by Atlas Restaurant Group, whose family also owns Sinclair Broadcasting.

Criticism
In June 2020, following weeks of protests about racial justice and the Killing of George Floyd, Ouzo Bay management refused to serve a black family because one member, a nine year old boy was in "athletic wear." Upon being turned away, the mother Marcia Grant began recording the incident, pointing out to a second manager that another family, who happened to be white, had a child around the same age in athletic wear and were allowed to be seated and served.

In the fall of 2019, another Atlas Group restaurant The Choptank, which is housed in a public market faced criticism for the same dresscode.
