“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”
“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”
“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.”

“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”
“Really great small place. Really nice and knowledgeable bar tender and waitress.
Try the home made limoncello.
We had the whole Bronzino and squid ink pasta. Everything was fantastic.”

“I really enjoy the aesthetic of this place. I always get an old speckled hen to drink and the typhoon fries with pork belly. The rice cakes are amazing too. This place gets better and better every time I go, and it helps asking the staff to guide you through the menu. Would recommend going on a less busy night, so you can pick where you want to sit.”

“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!”

“This was my first time visiting this restaurant, and I was really impressed! Drove a hour away! 😬 The food was delicious, they had a variety of oysters, atmosphere was great, and the service made the experience even better. Kimberly was my server and she was absolutely amazing friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout my visit. She really went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. I’ll definitely be coming back!”
“Celebrated our anniversary here tonight and everything was just right - from the service to the meal to the atmosphere. Wonderful staff, creative and exciting menu options and lovely decor. Really made our night perfect :)”

“The food was amazing! Excellent guacamole and the pozole was delish! Fish tacos were yummy and the flan for dessert was fantastic! We have been here once before and will be back again! Margaritas and after dinner drink were beautifully made. Our waiter, Alex, was attentive and excellent! Overall, a great dining experience!”
“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.”
“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.”

“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”

“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”
“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”
“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!!”
“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!"”
“Pros: great happy hour deals $2 crab special Very big blue crabs Spice and seasoning is amazing Food was delicious Food comes out quickly. Decor is nice. Drinks are strong! Cons: Our server was brand new and didn't know the menu or policies well so that impacted our ability to order things (but once we figured things out, the food was fantastic) and her serving skills were mediocre at best. She kept asking if we wanted more to order despite seeing we hadn't finished our course (we ordered a lot of crabs). Then when we needed her she was nowhere to be found. She brought our check before we were close to done. Felt rushed even though she said no rush she came back 3 times to check if we put our cards down.”
“Where do I start? Ok, the coveted 6th * for a gluten sensitive menu, because you never know. Three different steaks and one salmon, all cooked to perfection, truffle fries, amazing mashed potatoes, and the most incredible grilled mushrooms on the side - and one fantastic glass of Pinot Noir.
Pail treated four weary travelers with kindness and cheer, the Manager Iggy checked on us, and our water glasses never were allowed to remain empty for more than a moment. What was already a special meal turned into something transcendent thanks to how kindly we were treated.”
“question ! why are the uncooked 11oz crab cakes more than the 11oz cooked crab cakes that come with sides?”
“This was my first time visiting this restaurant, and I was really impressed! Drove a hour away! 😬 The food was delicious, they had a variety of oysters, atmosphere was great, and the service made the experience even better. Kimberly was my server and she was absolutely amazing friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout my visit. She really went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“This place is such a hidden gem. I love that it’s in a very nondescript, mysterious location. The vibes are immaculate and I had the best cocktail of my life here (caffe pistachio) and they are delicious and reasonably priced. My only criticism is that the music was a bit odd, it felt like I was in a yoga studio. otherwise i would recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique, true speakeasy vibe for an after dinner cocktail.”
“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.”
“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.”
“🥰 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!”
“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!”

“The Ruxton is a beautiful restaurant. Overall, the food was excellent. The steak was tender and full of flavor. It just needed to return to the kitchen for a little more flame, thus the 4star rating. Had it been prepared medium-rare-plus with a char, the rating would have been 5star.”
“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”

“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! 💕💕”

“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.”
“This place is amazing. Their empanadas are absolutely the best in Maryland. Their Dominican steak bowl is AMAZING. The Korean bbq steak bowl… AMAZING!! My only complaint is their steak sub. While it was TOTALLY delicious, it was very small for $12. It was sooo good I wanted more.”
“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. This extremely passionate Family serves up an all scratch cucina of tasty treasures from land and sea. At Vinny’s you’ll always be spoiled like Familia! #Killerfoodies #Ladolcevita”
“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!!!”
“Cloud Shrimp - Juicy shrimp fried in potato starch, served w Kimchi-kewpie Mayo”
“seafood broil snow crab legs fish platter everything is soooo good”
“Moved around the corner a couple months ago, I’m here every Friday night! Best wings in Baltimore! UNREAL atmosphere after an O’s/Ravens game. HIGHLY recommend!”
“Absolute best meal I have ever had I any restaurant! Make sure you call ahead. It is so good it will be hard to get into!”

“My favorite tea, ever. And I am VERY picky about my tea. AND it is very difficult to impress me. AND most tea companies do it wrong. But these people do it Wight 👐 I was initially enchanted when gifted Jasmine tea balls and found out the Jasmine I'd been drinking all my life was trash, haha. Wight changed my life. Since then I have tried a few other varieties including their Marquess Grey which went above and beyond and I completely fell head over heels for. Wow. These teas are so FRESH, fragrant, soothing, and they feel the way tea should in your body: relaxed, happy & fulfilled. I was just gifted their Evening Tisane and am equally enthralled with the product. I can't wait to buy more & gift to my friends & family. Everyone I've ever made a cup of tea for with Wight tea has been amazed by the flavor and aroma. Wight does tea right 🫖”
“My husband and I stopped by for a drink, and ordered the cream of crab soup, gf fried shrimp, and the honey maple brussel sprouts. Everything was delicious! Special thanks to the bartender, Lee, who was very attentive!”
“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.”
“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 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!!”
“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!!!”
“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.”
“The service was phenomenal. We were there for my sis in laws 50th Birthday (came in from Columbus,Oh and they treated her amazingly. Our server was great managing staff amazing.”
“Nicely appointed dining room, attentive and friendly staff. And our pizza was wonderful.”
“Fantastic evening at One- Eyed Mike's recently. Our server, Eugene, was top- notch, as was the food and beverage!”
“Great food, great drinks, great service and atmosphere.”
“Food was delicious!!!! Delivered nice and hot. It was almost too pretty to eat. I can’t wait to order again!!”
“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.”
“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!).”
“My friends and I went to the restaurant a couple nights ago and had a great time. We ate so much food. My favorite was the shrimp skewers. It had so much flavor and tasted so fresh. Our waiter was really nice and very patient because we were confused in how to order through the QR scan since it was a group of us, but we did it with no problem. Thank you!!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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! 🤘 💕🙌🏽”
“Wow! We ordered carryout from Ellie’s Tavern and were absolutely blown away. The food was incredible — huge portions, hand-cut fries, house-made blue cheese, and perfectly hand-breaded chicken tenders. The Crab Rangoon dip and Buffalo Cauliflower were outstanding. The service was awesome — fast and friendly — even while busy. We can’t wait to dine in next time. What an awesome Canton neighborhood gem!”
“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.”
“The Backyard is the best neighborhood bar in Baltimore. Expertly curated wine and spirit list, knowledgeable and friendly staff with amazing food and cocktails that are all very reasonably priced. It is am absolute hidden gem!”
“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!”
“First time visiting, the Hefeweizen Beer is the best and the lamb burger with pomme frites was on the money.”
“Wonderful food and drinks, as expected based on past experiences at Le Comptoir du Vin. However, our meal was dampened by the attitude of the bartender the night we visited. Simple requests and questions earned us snarky responses, and we were scolded for resting the drink menu on the bar a certain way. We were walking on eggshells by the end of the meal. I understand that heavy crowds and short staffing make things difficult, but give your customers some grace.”
“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”
“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!!!”
“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”
“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!”
“Great views of the Mt Vernon area from the restaurant! Excellent service and one of the best burgers I've had! I was a bit disappointed with the Espresso Martini. Something was missing...”
“Let me start with this — the food was great. Everything we ordered was fresh, seasoned right, and worth the trip. Baltimore seafood never disappoints, and Jimmy's definitely held it down on that end. Now for the real talk: the vibe when I first walked in? Off. The hostess straight-up left me standing there after I checked in — no “we'll seat you soon,” no “we're waiting on your party,” nothing. Just silence and attitude. When I asked what was going on, she finally says, “Oh, we don't seat until your whole party's here.” Cool. I get policies. But communication and tone cost zero dollars. Once I got past that energy, the food and overall atmosphere made up for it. Lively crowd, good music, and delicious food. Bottom line: Jimmy's, your food is A1 — but please put some warmth and professionalism up front. The hostess is the face of the experience, and that first impression matters. Don't let bad energy block good seafood.”
“Excellent delicious food. Exceptional service that would go above and beyond for their customers.”
“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!”
“Everything delicious and the customer service was A1. ,didn’t even have to wait long for my food.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!!!!”
“I usually don’t eat Indian food, too spicy, but the ambassador makes the food just perfect for my taste. Special occasions when the mood is right, we go to the ambassador for that special taste of Indian cuisine. I’ve been going to the ambassador for the last 20 years. Today I drove 28 miles from home just to enjoy dinner at this great restaurant. Thank you for the good food and good service.”
“Located in Canton it’s really nice to have an all you can eat Korean barbecue spot in the city because usually you have to drive out into the county. I stopped in here with a group of six people. We did arrive right when they opened so we were seated right away. I would advise if you’re not comfortable with street parking to come earlier because usually that’s all that’s available. There is no dedicated parking lot for this establishment.
Steak and bone offers two all you can eat options and option be offers everything an option a plus some additional offerings. I would recommend going with option B if you have more people or people in your party that have very specific preferences since it offers more selection. When we went, there was also a bottomless mimosa option for $18.
The food and quality were exceptional, and the steamed egg here comes with some sprinkle of cheese and once melted in with the egg it pairs,
Perfectly ! Their waving soup also is so delicious and very flavorful and pairs nicely with the meat options. Our personal favorite is the brisket and I would highly recommend the brisket here as well. It was a good mix of meat and fatty pieces. The pork belly was a second contender. They do also offer the optional ice cream and is for an extra fee and it’s available on the way out by the door.
Before I finish this review, I have to mention the service . It easily may have been because we were the only group here for a while when we first arrived, but the service was very prompt. The food came out quickly, and even when guests started to arrive the food Pace maintained the whole time. A huge shout out to Kevin because he did great demanding the front of the house the entire time even as guests continued to roll in.”
“This hidden gem is so a cozy, cool, sexy place with amazing staff & owner. We feel like family here . We luv to karaoke and enjoy the atmosphere . Check it out you may fall in with the place too”
“The Ruxton is a beautiful restaurant. Overall, the food was excellent. The steak was tender and full of flavor. It just needed to return to the kitchen for a little more flame, thus the 4star rating. Had it been prepared medium-rare-plus with a char, the rating would have been 5star.”
“I had the privilege of attending a fabulous birthday party for a dear friend recently. The service was outstanding! Chef Maria’s food was so flavorful. They kept bringing more and more food all fresh and delicious. Bravo Cypriana !!”
“I visited Judy's Island off the recommendation of @A.I Brown. The restaurant had a nice vibe, the staff was very pleasant and accommodating, and the food was good!! I had the jerk chicken and my husband had jerk lambchops. Both were good...and we would visit again!”
“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”

“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 came here to celebrate my 60th Birthday and the food and service was excellent. The owner and his nephew Shi made it the best. I'm sorry I did not meet the better half, but I will be returning this Sunday for carryout. If you are in the mood for some freshly cooked food look no further, check them out you will not be disappointed!!!”
“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.”

She creates lovely desserts that both look good and have you craving your next visit. I’m a foodie Deborah’s is the place to go to for ice cream in Baltimore if you want the best.”
“My friends and I went to the restaurant a couple nights ago and had a great time. We ate so much food. My favorite was the shrimp skewers. It had so much flavor and tasted so fresh. Our waiter was really nice and very patient because we were confused in how to order through the QR scan since it was a group of us, but we did it with no problem. Thank you!!”
“I really enjoyed stopping by this small little gem. I ordered the steak queso birria tacos , and no consume was needed. Juicy steak with no fatty pieces and tortilla crisp to perfection. The red chicken tamale was good and spicy salsa sneaks up on ya. Grab a Dulce leche cake for dessert later. It’s worth it”
