“Marta manages to be both lively and cozy simultaneously in a rowhouse that previously housed Salt (one of my all time favorite upscale restaurants) We went for a friend's birthday, and all 3 courses were delicious, beautifully presented, inventive, and not the same old menu that you find everywhere. Very sweet wait staff was super attentive, educated about the food and wine and made great suggestions. Our original wait staff had an emergency and had to leave in the middle of service, but seamlessly another wait person stepped in to covered us. Kudos to the front of house team for handling with such skill and ease. But the food was definitely the star of the show. For me, the standout was the tuna cannoli. I'm not even sure I can do justice to this deliciousness with a crunchy outer "cannoli" shell with a slight hint of sweet surrounding a creamy center of tuna crudi with little dots of avocado cream. And all was covered with a pistachio "dust." The spicy meatballs were delectable nestled in a cloud of creamy spicy ricotta. And the Duck and Foie Gras Panzotti (little triangle ravioli) was creamy, delicious and the perfect combination of delicate tastes. And the Tiramisu Affogato ended the dinner on a delicious note! And for two people with drinks it was really pretty a good deal for the quality if the food, service and location. We will be back! Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5”
“We had an incredible experience. The service was fast, the staff were welcoming, the food was delicious. Looking forward to try more items on the menu soon!”
“Just discovered a gem nearby. I ate at Kandahar on 36th Street. It is owned by the previous general manager of The Helmand. What a delight. Most reasonable prices and the food was excellent. The last few times I went to the downtown location it wasn't as good, I now know why. If you haven't been there, I promise, you won't be disappointed. 5 stars”
“This was by far the BEST seafood in the area. Food was delicious, service was superb, staff very friendly. Shuttle service right on point! Overall experience 10/10 in all areas. I definitely will be back and telling everyone looking for great seafood and experience! Thank you!”

“¡Qué restaurante tan encantador y delicioso! Aquí no se permiten alimentos envasados. Todo está cuidadosamente preparado con mimo e ingredientes reales. Patricia nos recibió calurosamente. Los camareros fueron atentos y serviciales incluso cuando el restaurante se cerró de golpe poco después de nuestra llegada. Es nuestro nuevo lugar al que acudir. ¡Esperamos volver pronto!”
“Wow, I used to love you guys... But once I found out you guys hired someone that distributed child pron, that love immediately stopped. Oh, and I forgot to mention... He distributed THOUSANDS!! THOUSANDS of photos and videos of prepubescent children and toddlers. I'm all for hiring felons, but not when those felons endanger children. The name of the employee is Charles Pijanowski. I might come back, but only after you fire the pred.”
“The Capital Grill is our favorite restaurant especially for special occasions. Our most recent dining was on the occasion of our 52nd Wedding Anniversary. As always, excellent Menu selection superb wait staff. I cannot recall the gentleman who served us however, upon seeing him, recalled that with the assistance of another member of the staff on the occasion of my wife's 70th Birthday took great care of us.”

“Came to Baltimore first night out to dinner decided to try this place called kechy Pizza co. First off 5 star service the moment we walked in the door . Amazing menu , amazing choices and hands down the best pizza I’ve had in a long time . The food and ingredients were all so fresh and tasted amazing. I definitely recommend if you’re in the area to stop in and fill your bell you won’t be disappointed!”

“All of the food we had was spectacular and one-of-a-kind; cocktails, focaccia, beef tartare, honey nut squash, pasta… the service was impeccable and the restaurant had a lovely ambiance. I’ve recommended this restaurant to all of my foodie friends and we will definitely be back!”
“such an amazing experience, some dishes are served in a tea pot, tea and dessert are amazing. One of my favorite places to order food from and to dine in person. My favorite afghan spot in the city! they also sell rugs and tea sets which adds to the atmosphere”

“Last night, my wife and I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary with dinner at Charleston in Baltimore—and it truly may have been the dining experience of a lifetime. From the moment we arrived, the attention to detail was astounding: perfectly curated ambiance, gracious and attentive service, and a beautifully paced tasting menu. Every dish was a revelation, from the wine pairing thoughtfully selected to complement each course, to the impeccable presentation and exquisite flavors. The staff made the evening feel utterly seamless and special. It was our first visit to Charleston, and it stands out as the perfect place to mark such a milestone. Thank you to everyone—from the kitchen team to our servers—for creating such a memorable, delightful evening. A hearty thank you for making our 20th anniversary absolutely perfect”

“We went to Indigma this evening for restaurant week. The food was fantastic and my nine-year-old loved everything! She gave it a 1523/10 rating! Though everything was excellent, the creme brulee was the best I've ever had. Thank you for a fantastic meal!”

“Been a huge fan of Chef Jasmine Norton for several years. When our plans changed and we postponed our annual anniversary trip to Jamaica, there was no other restaurant that I wanted to have dinner in than The Urban Oyster. From the moment we walked in the door and were greeted by their warm and staff, it set the tone for the entire experience. We started off with raw oysters from Chincoteague and Canada that were flavorful and had the perfect balance of flavor and salt. I then indulged in the lobster bisque which had me wanting more but I knew I needed to save room for the main course. I selected the Seared Scallops and my husband had the Branzino. Both dishes were perfectly prepared and left us with no room for dessert. My only regret is that I didn’t take pictures for the review because we were too busy enjoying every moment! Urban Oyster, you exceeded this foodie’s expectations and we will be back soon! Thank you for making our 15th anniversary so special!”

“Wonderful experience at Alma. Beautiful restaurant with beautiful dishes and plate ware. The ambiance was divine.
We got tequenos, cauliflower, and hamachi. That was the best hamachi I ever had. It was sweet, tart, and salty. The yellow tail melted in my mouth. The Arroz con Chipi-Chipi reminded me of Paella. The Bienmasabe desert was tasty. It was sponge cake, coconut ice cream and chewy jellies for texture. The punch like a lady cocktail was refreshing not too sweet. Something about having it on the rocks took it over.
We were well taken by our servers.”

“Alex was excellent he gave some suggestions that were incredibly delicious. Not one time did we have to look for him, on top of everything the entire time. The Lamb Cops OMG and the Arrachera I won’t know what to pick next time. Save room for the drinks …… top notch. We will be back for sure maybe not with the kids lol although very kid friendly.”

“This was my first visit to this Subway as it is inside the Exxon station and easy to miss. The employees were very friendly, the subs were tasty, and mostly made to order. I placed the order online, so they may have missed the request to make the bacon crispy.
This location accepts coupons / offers in the app. I would recommend this location.”
“Vegetarian options: They have a veggie burger & you can get any sandwich easily made without meat as well!
Dietary restrictions: They make their customers very aware of the risks and give healthy options to "less healthy" options.
Parking: Several open spots at all times.
Kid-friendliness: My kids love the king crowns they give out and their toys have always been the best.
Wheelchair accessibility: All handicap and wheelchair accessible.”
“Located inside of Sinai Hospital and very convenient. I visit this location on a regular basis because they are open 24 hours. Good food and as always fresh. The tomatoes could be more ripe instead of green. My sandwich was put together messy which is reflective of the service in my opinion.
Vegetarian options: Veggie delight and veggie patties are good vegetarian options.”
“I worked here for 10 years in the industrial Engineering department (Maintenance). Compared to other companies in the industry the salary is kind of low, but for anyone looking to start a career in this field it’s probably the best option there is. They will accept anyone who is willing to work and learn and they will train you. Most people spend a few years learning the trade and then move on to make more money. Myself included. I don’t understand why ownership would allow their best guys to leave that way rather than structuring something to compensate them for all their experience and skill, but that’s just how it is there. This is not to say you can’t make a decent living there because you can, but just not what could be made elsewhere. The high pace makes for a great learning environment. It’s extremely hot there, but most places are. That place will always be like a second home to me. I loved working there. If they could match my salary I would go back. That will never happen though for reason I’ve explained here already. They have extremely good benefits compared to anywhere else. Cheapest and great coverage. 401k is kind of low. Overall, best place for low experience people and a great place to work, but not somewhere to expect $100k a year or more. I always send people to them for jobs still and I’ve been gone for a couple years now. It’s just a great place to work.”
“Ok McDonald's......I see you stepping the game up! Visted the 6001 Moravia location today.....09.05.24 at 12pm. The gentleman on the drive thru speaker was amazing, he addressed me by my name and everything, wonderful customer service. Great job young man.....I wish I knew your name. They need about 4 more of you at all of the McDonald's locations, you definitely make a positive difference and it's appreciated. The food is even getting a little better.”
“This subway is a great regular lunch spot employees are quick, kind and responsive. I feel bad whenever they receive a mobile order because the new order alert sound is a loud and repetitive alarm. If they are working on a sub they cant just stop, deglove, press the confirmation button to silence it, reglove and finish the sub. Subway should consider changing that sound or workers with ptsd might start quitting from the potential trigger.”
“For frequent visitors to the University of MD Medical Center, the Subway situated there is a no brainer. While it may not be a destination restaurant, it is a dependable source of comfort and sustenance.The most notable aspect of this Subway is the consistent freshness of its ingredients. Whether stopping in early or for a late-night snack, the vegetables always appear crisp and vibrant, and the meats maintain a satisfying quality.The recent menu update offers a welcome change, providing a wider variety to choose from. I recently enjoyed the Hot Shot Italiano, with its zesty combination of salami, pepperoni, and provolone, and the BMT, a classic that never disappoints. The chip selection is generous, catering to various taste preferences, and the cookies are a delightful way to end a meal.The staff at this Subway location typically strikes a good balance between efficiency and friendliness. They understand the fast-paced nature of a hospital environment and work swiftly to get orders completed, while still acknowledging customers with a smile.It's important to note that the restaurant itself does not offer dine-in seating. However, the advantage lies in its proximity to the hospital cafeteria, allowing patrons to take their Subway creations across the hall and enjoy a comfortable dining experience.Overall, the Subway at the University of MD Medical Center serves its purpose admirably. It provides consistent quality, a welcome variety of fresh ingredients, and friendly service, making it a reliable option for those seeking a quick and satisfying meal during a hospital visit.”

“Yesterday was my first visit to Corner Juice Bar, and I absolutely loved it! I ordered a fresh wheatgrass shot—it was both affordable and made to perfection. The owners were incredibly kind and welcoming, making the experience even better. The decor has a nostalgic charm that took me right back to my childhood—especially the mini piano and gold telephone. I’ll definitely be coming back every day!"”
“I was lucky enough to be here for their opening. Amazing culinary skills with the food culture. They are extremely kind and very knowledgeable with thei whole menue from presentation to entree to sides to the fresh beverage option it was on point. If I had to grade on a scale of 1-10 I would grade "10" on every category offered The food is prepared everyday fresh. And I can not wait to come back again. I would highly recommend coming here....”
“I recently read an article that said the best bakery in Maryland is Ovenbird. They are wrong. IT IS THIS PLACE. Fantastic bakery -- the croissants are fabulous. If I had to critique the place it would be they need a 2nd barista, or a cheap intercom system. The tiny place only holds 6 people (and a dog!) and 5 of those are standing around waiting for their coffee.”
“Food has always been delicious however… …the last beef bao sandwich was disappointing because I had to search for the meat through the vegetation. Flavors are always on point but when the protein is missing…. This is always my concern when an establishment grows too large, the quality starts to wane. Regards Sent from my iPhone”
“If you have gluten or dairy allergies, this place is Heaven! My daughter swears the staff here are magical fairies because no human can make food this good that is GF and DF! Beyond that, they also have the best customer service of anyone around! Cannot recommend this place highly enough! Everything we have had here has been amazing!”
“We are there for the first time last night and I can say the food was absolutely amazing and the service was phenomenal. It’s a busy restaurant for obvious reasons, but the staff made the experience a great one. The owner Carlos was super nice and stopped by to say hello to us as we have a mutual friend. I would highly recommend checking this out!!”
“This was a date night with my love and we had an exquisite experience from start to finish. He had the Samke Tajen (Salmon) which was very well seasoned and I had the braised lamb shank and it was absolutely delectable. The drinks were very well hand crafted cocktails with an amazing aroma to it. The ambiance was so gorgeous, it felt like we were not in Baltimore anymore. The service was out of this world! We met the owner, the GM, the captain, and our sessions served Dean who treated us like royalty! Overall everything was pure perfection!”
“Great experience. The Chef loves what he does and it translates to the quality of food and excellent customer service. The Chef visited our table 3x, including once to deliver a drink. The staff was friendly and attentive. Portion size was enormous. You will definitely need a take home container. Great hidden gem.”
“We partnered with this establishment many times in catering/festivals and has truly been a successful partnership. Yunnan Asian cuisine is a bit difference from our usual Cantonese Asian cuisine however, Water Song has always exceeded our expectation with their authentic ingredients.”
“I can’t say enough good things about this place! Every time we go here for dinner, we always enjoy! The staff is friendly and the owner Jerome is awesome! He comes to the table not only to greet you and to make sure everything is okay. He even takes the empty dishes off the table. He’s always helping out around the restaurant. Love this place!!!”

“We celebrated my daughter's 21st birthday at Sotto Sopra last night and had the best experience! we were met by name at the door! Given prosecco when we arrived at our table! Had a delicious 3 course meal. And then dessert with sparkler! The atmosphere was amazing - beautiful decor, clean, perfect acoustics so you could hear and talk, but also wonderful selection of music playing in the background. And our waiter was just amazing and so attentive and friendly! Perfect restaurant for your special occasion! I cant wait to go back! Thank you for making our daughter's birthday so special!”
“My family and I happened up on this cool little place while on vacation and in Baltimore for one day. Loved the atmosphere and the fact that it’s a local place and not a chain that I can get at home in Louisiana. Pizza and wings were great and staff was friendly and attentive.”
“Hard to find any faults here! Super popular for good reason. We got there around 9:30 and were anticipating a wait, but we were seated within a few minutes. It’s a big space, but not too noisy. The food was incredible! I don’t think you can go wrong. I’d for sure go again and again!”

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Citron Baltimore while celebrating a friend’s birthday! The owner, Charles, and his wife were incredibly nice and friendly, making us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. Their hospitality truly set the tone for a memorable evening. The food was nothing short of amazing—every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was incredible, with a perfect blend of elegance and warmth that made the celebration extra special. Highly recommend this gem of a spot—can’t wait to come back!”
“Andrew, the manager, really made my client feel special, celebrating the recent sale of his property. Client was impressed with the customized menu acknowledging the closing. Food was superb, as always. We had the charred Octopus and braised lamb chops as appetizers and the stuffed lobster with crabmeat and the red snapper as entrees/ both delicious / the service was equally outstanding and assisted in making our dining experience very memorable”
“Second time here, food was awesome both times. I really enjoyed my visit this most recent time because I was able to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine and waterfront views. The sushi is fantastic here, really fresh and they have great roll combinations. I wasn't that impressed with the tempura. We had the yellowtail carpaccio and that was yummy. Also, a nice dessert called a matchamisu which was like a tiramisu but with matcha and a fruit jam. Brilliant! And last but not least, we had a fantastic server, Tim, who made good recommendations and was attentive and friendly.”
“The restaurant was nice, didn't expect a Valentine's Day set menu the day after Valentine's Day. We almost left but just made due. The waiter was very rude, moved too fast and rubbed everyone at the table the wrong way to the point that we didn't even want the dessert. We were just ready to go. Overall ambiance and food were good but the service will make me not return.”

“Absolutely love this place! We tried the AOA and MangO’s bingsoo as well as Mango milk tea with crystal boba and Strawberry milk tea with crystal boba and next time we can’t wait to try the taiyaki. Perfect if you already love bingsoo or want to try something new. And the base for the aoa is gluten free and made with oatmilk so there’s even options for people with dietary restrictions. Keep up the good work! 💕💕”

“Yes, yes, and yes! Ekiben is fire! Well seasoned, flavorful, facilities are clean. The ONLY thing I could complain about would be finding a parking space, with the exception of the Hampden location. Fells Point and Sobo is like finding the hey in the needle stack. If you’re in Baltimore even if you’re just passing by, please go to Ekiben.”
“Definitely a great atmosphere nice to see something like this in my old neighborhood. Eric and Chad were phenomenal. Me and my girlfriend definitely enjoyed ourselves. I felt like I hit a time machine and went back to the 90s down fells point. It definitely gave me that type of vibe. 💯💯🫡”
“I come here every now and then and i must say out of all the cafes with baked goods in baltimore. This cute cafe tucked away in the ambassador apartments has the best savory breakfast pastries. There cakes and sweet pastries are phenomenal as well. The matcha cheesecake is bar none. And the coffee is solid too. I have no idea why anyone would ever choose to go to a chain like starbucks. Support your local economy.”
“Our first visit to Café Los Sueños was truly memorable. After reading the café’s glowing reviews, my husband and I decided to visit as a way to unplug from technology, relax, and enjoy our favorite books; and we couldn’t have made a better choice.
From the moment we walked in, Carlos, the owner, greeted us with such warmth and kindness. We had a friendly conversation with him both at the beginning and throughout our time there, which added such a personal touch to the experience. We ordered a Horchata latte with oat milk and an Ethiopian coffee and both were absolutely delicious.
But what truly stood out was the atmosphere that Carlos and his wife have created. It’s more than just a coffee shop… it’s a beautiful little community. Almost everyone who walked in seemed to know Carlos, and there were heartfelt, lively conversations happening all around. It felt like a safe space to share and connect; a rare and precious thing in today’s fast-paced world.
We will absolutely be returning to Café Los Sueños to disconnect and recharge. And if you visit, be sure to ask Carlos about the story behind the T-shirt framed on the wall. ;)
The story is just as heartwarming as Carlos himself, who makes every single person feel welcome.”
“You’ll never leave let down or hungry when you’re experiencing an authentic Italian Meal at Vinny’s Italian Cafe in Baltimore.

“We were visiting from out of town and ran across this restaurant. The food is so unique and made with the freshest of ingredients! Staff was friendly and service was fast. Recommend highly.”
“Stopped in for lunch and got the stuffed cabbage and pierogis. The food was absolutely delicious!!! Reminded me of home as a kid. Haven’t been there in a while so we met the new owner Thomas and so glad he has continued the tradition of great ethnic cuisine!!! Stop in! You’ll love it!!!”
“Foleys is the go to place for anything! As a regular I can say the food and drinks are always phenomenal. I reserved the upstairs for the first time for a nursing school graduation party! Mark was amazing at helping me facilitate this! Mark answered all of my questions leading up to the party and helped me make sure the day would be great!
Scott did a great job working the bar during our event! Meg was fantastic at the downstairs bar for people grabbing drinks on their way up. 10/10 recommend having an event here! The staff will treat you like family!”
“question ! why are the uncooked 11oz crab cakes more than the 11oz cooked crab cakes that come with sides?”
“🥰 MR. AMIR and his family are absolutely lovely people. This is a family run business in the heart of Baltimore social life, between Inner Harbor, Harbor East and Fells Point (more to Fells Point side). It is our favorite Indian restaurant in Baltimore by far. My husband and I really enjoy their lunch buffets, they service freshly made food and have a variety of options. The lunch buffet has Indian salads, sometimes vegetable samosas, at least a few different meat entrees, at least a few different vegetable entrees, dessert, and always hot chai tea with sugar options. My husband and I enjoy going to not only eat the food, but also appreciate how friendly and hospitable Amir and his family are. They also have respectful staff, and run a very peaceful operation. We appreciate every visit, and when we leave, we feel like we have gained 5 pounds each (in a good way!). Looking forward to our next visit :) Thank you Mr. Amir and family!”

“Nicely appointed dining room, attentive and friendly staff. And our pizza was wonderful.”
“Food was delicious!!!! Delivered nice and hot. It was almost too pretty to eat. I can’t wait to order again!!”
“Amazing dining experience! This is the perfect spot to have a fantastic meal and unmatched cocktails. The team is attentive and helpful, and the menu offers an imaginative assortment of tasty options. Owners Nancy and Jerry (who is also the chef) are frequently interacting with guests and making sure that each guest is having the perfect dining experience. Inclusive and warm, this duo created our very favorite place in Baltimore!”
“This was my first time there. Crabs were spot on, in size and price. Service was amazing. Easy parking. Great views. I'll be back.”
“First time here.... love love the food! I cannot stop thinking about the oysters and my seafood boil. The potatoes were hard, could have cooked a little longer. They were busy w/ a wait, so my friend and I went to the bar.”
“Amazing food and atmosphere! The only downside is parking. I ended up paying $28 to park in the public parking garage. I will definitely come back (but with a better plan for parking!).”
“This was my first experience dining at Harbor Tandoor and I will definitely be back. Amazing food and even better service! Our server, Hikmat, was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. The food was well seasoned and even the veggies were excellent. If you're ever in Inner Harbor, check this place out!”
“Always loved Red Star, and the Dara has kept the best elements while also delivering amazing Thai food. I highly recommend the $19 business lunch special. Haven't any anything yet that wasn't delicious. Looking forward to making my way through the menu.”
“Fantastic evening at One- Eyed Mike's recently. Our server, Eugene, was top- notch, as was the food and beverage!”
“I organized a work event that was held there today. The service and experience were amazing. From start to finish they were true professionals and all the attendees had a great time. I highly recommend having your next corporate event here and can’t wait to come back.”
“We are visiting from Canada. We received fantastic service and the food was incredible. The restaurant even helped us get back to our hotel when the cab didn't show up as our phones weren't working. Thank you Abigail and the hostess (unfortunately I can't remember her name). They ended our evening on a positive note which won't be forgotten 🤗. 5 stars.”
“I was there with my wife yesterday. the food and beer were so good. Loved the atmosphere. the GM was awesome. They could not do a full tour but the GM did a quick tour aroubd the place. lets hope their lager is at Audi Field again this year.”
“The is a true local gem. The bar is decorated in a 1970’s theme. They offer old timey beers like Stroh’s and Schaefer as well as inventive cocktails. The menu consists of unique pizzas, sandwiches and salads. Their wings are tender, tasty and delicious. The bar has a pub like quality and the clientele is friendly and welcoming. The Dive is a wonderful new addition to the neighborhood”
“Came for my anniversary dinner. Everything was phenomenal. Like I’m literally writing the review while I’m still here because it was that good. Food. Service. Drinks. Atmosphere. Music. Like 10/10 no notes.”
“Thank you to Dimitri and the Black Olive staff for a wonderful dinner and memorable evening. The food was remarkable, the wine spectacular and the service splendid. Worth the hour plus drive!”
“Very rich meal and elegant atmosphere. For me, a glass of sweet red wine, a delicious plate of prawns and a steak note replace all my fatigue today”
“Three of us got some veggie sambusas (and then we ordered more of those because WOW) and the Tabor. The Special Tibbs was so great that we asked for a separate order of it in chicken (lamb, beef, or chicken). We “bothered” our waiter quite a bit and he didn’t mind a bit. He was so caring and kind. It was such a neat little spot and with music playing. Just a whole vibe. 1000% will be returning!”
“The views are amazing. The food was good but a bit pricey. Drinks were also a bit pricey. Overall we had a nice date night and ended our night at the speakeasy located in the hotel, which was a also a great time.”
“Definitely a 10/10 spot went there around 7:30 for dinner !! Food was awesome and in good prices I got a crab cake for 18$ with a 2 dollar add on for fries and coleslaw. Recommend getting there early just because wait times are crazy. Service was awesome I was there 5/21 and sitting on the first floor outside the server was amazing but sadly I can’t remember the young girls name she was tall and skinny. I’m definitely coming back!!!”
“This was only my second time visiting Jimmy’s Seafood, and it was just as good as the first.
JADA D. Was Bartending downstairs and was phenomenal from the moment I walked through the door. She is extremely pleasant and fun to talk with. She even recommended a meal catered to my taste that was perfect. I had the stuffed shrimp and garlic mashed potatoes and both were seasoned to perfection and Highly recommended Employees like JADA D. is the reason why I frequent certain establishments. I recommend her Specifically if you’re a first time customer and enjoy great conversation.”
“Rusty Scupper was amazing. The goold was delicious but what really set them apart was how they went the extra mile for my parents anniversary dinner. I got my parents a gift card and made reservations, in the reservation saying it wasy parents anniversary celebration, could they give them a quiet table. They did that and so very much more. My mom can't stop talking about how incredible they were, how special she felt, how incredible the food was and how she had 3 wait staff, one in training but she had never felt so special in her life. Her excitement and joy makes me smile and I want everyone to know that Rusty Scupper could have set them in a nice table and said Happy Anniversary, that would have been great service but what they did was make an unforgettable memory for my parents. Going above and beyond, thank you Rusty Scupper staff, thank you so very much. You gave my parents an experience that is above and beyond "like something out of a movie" mom keeps saying!!!!”
“Excellent delicious food. Exceptional service that would go above and beyond for their customers.”
“Best Italian food in the area. Service is the best. Can't get any better.”
“really great food and service! was so excited to see soju on the menu as well as spike boba (something I'd never seen before!) the menu looked great and there were several dishes I wanted to try but I'll just have to keep coming back to try them all! we got the Laap and garden wraps and both were delicious. the Laap came in different levels of spice and even the mild had some heat so just beware if you're not a spice person 😋 lots of non-spicy stuff on the menu too!”
“Best Indian food we had in Baltimore out of many that we tried. A little bit on an expensive side but worth it in my opinion. Staff is friendly and ambience is nice and quiet. Was surprised to see very less number of reviews on this restaurant and therefore was apprehensive to visit at first but totally loved the food.”
“This bar is the perfect mix of nostalgia, eclectic funk, and delightful interesting people. Came here on a Sunday afternoon to listen to some live music. Everybody is friends here they have tons of beer on tap, yummy cocktail. And the type of decor that keeps you discovering something every minute. Shout out to David and Morgan for taking such good care of their patrons. Will be spending my whole summer here! Rock on! 🤘 💕🙌🏽”
“There are not enough stars in the sky to give this place. Talk about creating fantastic dishes they make such wonderful flavor combinations. They use fresh ingredients it’s very evident in the high quality of food that they provide. The atmosphere is absolutely amazing and the vibes are indescribable. My waiter was Jimmy today I ordered the Halibut after I asked what it was 😂😂😂. He told me it was delicious and one of his favorite fish. The man was spot on it was absolutely amazing how every was seasoned and grilled to beyond perfection. My girlfriend ordered the Chicken Chesapeake it was an absolute hit.I don’t know which one was better but I’d love to have a serving of either one again anytime. Oysters were perfect this place has quickly become a huge place of interest. We both look forward to returning and I will suggest this amazing food to anyone. What great food and a great time.”
“Just left Darker Than Blue Grille for brunch and the service was wonderful! The food was amazing and the atmosphere was so welcoming! I will most definitely be returning! If you haven’t tried it out you should take a trip here.”
“Everything delicious and the customer service was A1. ,didn’t even have to wait long for my food.”
“Great meal and service. Like most Atlas restaurants, not so sure it's worth the price. Menu hasn't changed at all since opening, but overall it was a great experience.”
“Been here like 5 times since they’ve opened. Carbonara, and duck confit pizza are go to’s. Never had a bad experience. Brett, dom, and Jontell, along with their great staff and brand can certainly run a tight ship. 30/10, will recommend every time.”

“Heritage Smokehouse has been my go-to spot for the past two years—I’m there at least once a month, and I can’t get enough of it. The food, the atmosphere, the people—everything about it keeps me coming back. My wife and I recently attended a special event, the Carl Ehrhard Wine Dinner, and it completely blew us away. From the incredible pairings to the warm hospitality, it was next-level. Heritage isn’t just a restaurant to me—it’s a place I’ll be loyal to for life.”

“Had their special rum drink. Quite tasty. 14.00
Then had the chicken liver hash hangover cure. Very very good. Presentation was terrific. Eggs were perfect overeasy
I think it was 16.00 (maube 17.00) drinks and food there are inventive and not sloppy. I had a zekes coffee there too 5.00. More than I wanted to spend, but everything was carefully prepared, like in a super exclusive downtown restaurant. Informal atmosphere. Not pretentious. Spent to much but really enjoyed it”

“Me and my husband absolutely love this place. They have awesome service and great food. The atmosphere is such that you feel like you are part of the family. Everyone is so hospitable and friendly. I highly recommend Jimmy T's for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They never disappoint.”
“I have been eating from the Blue Island for over the past 9 years when they where in the old Lexington Market featuring Cho's Sea Garden being directly across from them . Their "Hot Pepper Chicken" mix with shrimp fried rice or with Fried Rice along has and will continue to be my favorite. For me it last for (2) days being a medium-sized purchase.”
“I, along with four other friends went to this restaurant on Saturday 8/23/25 and both the food and service were excellent. Everyone we came in contact with was very polite, friendly and professional. I personally loved their corn bread muffins and asked if I could buy some to take back home. The young lady was very generous and I truly appreciated all that she did. The next time I'm in Baltimore, I definitely will be going there. The other ladies with me all felt the same way.”

“Second time here, food was awesome both times. I really enjoyed my visit this most recent time because I was able to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine and waterfront views. The sushi is fantastic here, really fresh and they have great roll combinations. I wasn't that impressed with the tempura. We had the yellowtail carpaccio and that was yummy. Also, a nice dessert called a matchamisu which was like a tiramisu but with matcha and a fruit jam. Brilliant! And last but not least, we had a fantastic server, Tim, who made good recommendations and was attentive and friendly.”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Citron Baltimore while celebrating a friend’s birthday! The owner, Charles, and his wife were incredibly nice and friendly, making us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. Their hospitality truly set the tone for a memorable evening. The food was nothing short of amazing—every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was incredible, with a perfect blend of elegance and warmth that made the celebration extra special. Highly recommend this gem of a spot—can’t wait to come back!”

“AMAZING new Smashburger and Chicken 🐔 spot! The restaurant is super clean in a great neighborhood of Baltimore on N. Charles Street. Very comfortable, clean and open. The food is absolutely amazing and Halal! حلال For those that don't know, that means the meat is of a higher quality and they don't serve pork! The customer service is great also and the bathrooms were clean! Definitely, a place to stop by for a great lunch with co-workers or a light dinner with the misses.
Thank you for opening in Baltimore! We need more places like this! The location is also amazing😍! The prices are also incredibly affordable!
The Nashville sauce was absolutely crackalacking! 🤤🤤🤤”
“This beautiful little cafe in Hampden near JHU is such a gem. The open-faced toasts are full of flavor, and the croffle is a fun and tasty treat! As a picky coffee lover, I was genuinely impressed by the vanilla sweet cream cold brew—smooth and well-balanced. The strawberry matcha is also a must-try for any matcha fan! Cozy atmosphere, super friendly staff—highly recommend stopping by!”
“Went by the get a sandwich and Jay was very helpful. The environment is friendly and the pricing is very fair for how much you get. Jay did a really good job balancing fillings and sauces so my sandwich was not dry or soggy. There are a lot of drink and chip options and the vibe is chill. It does take a minute for them to make the sandwiches so plan on sticking around for a few or plan on walking the block. It’s a local business and it tastes better than subway so if you’re debating, just walk the couple blocks, you won’t be disappointed.”
“Food was amazing, atmosphere was great including the music they played and the cook (think he was the owner) was even better. He went out of his way to make sure we had a great experience after we drove 30mins to try the food. Muchísimas gracias por su amable servicio! Can’t wait to go back.”
“My partner and I love this place. They have great food. My partner is obsessed with their salmon lover and salad. I love their sushi and their fried chicken wings. The staff are very nice. They sometimes give us appetizers on the house. Every experience has been great. This is our go-to place.”
“The food is amazing and you can tell it is cooked with passion and love. Tastes great and looks really pretty, there was an edible flower as a garnish! This is an amazing small business. We worked specifically with Elle. Elle is extremely passionate in her job and in the community.”
“Need a place to go where you can relax, watch a sporting event on multiple tv's, eat healthy and have an overall good experience? Well... look no further...”
