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 thoroughly enjoyed our first experience at the Charleston. The atmosphere was amazing and the staff was very kind. We had great conversations with several of them and truly felt welcomed. The food was delicious, our favorite part definitely being the cheese and dessert. Highly recommend!

Excellent fine dining place in Baltimore!

I spent my mother’s 70th here at Charleston. The restaurant, food, and atmosphere left me speechless.
Eric Luper
Everything about our experience at Charleston was top-notch. The food was stellar and the service was exceptional. Our server was so knowledgeable about every little detail. Little complimentary surprises along the way made the night a real treat. We got the prix fixe menu with the wine pairings. Four dishes was a lot of food for us. We will definitely be back!

The manager, George, helped my family and I arrange to take care of the bill for my sister and her husband for their anniversary dinner at Charleston. They loved and raved about every course (highlights were the veal, the truffle fettuccine, and the beef tenderloin, and the maple ice cream which they only got because the waitress recommended it but then it surprised them as the best ice cream they’ve ever had). Our family is so grateful to the staff of Charleston for helping us to arrange to the surprise; their team were as excited as our family to make it happen, and you can’t find that kind of service and true hospitality just anywhere! We will continue to return as well as recommend this special spot to our friends! Thank you to George, who was wonderful in helping us!
Really nice time here for a special event, more or less what you’d hope for with fine dining in a great location. Cheese cart was very enticing. Food was excellent, though expected with the price. Not necessarily blown away but very satisfied with the experience.

This place…so yes, it’s a must visit. I have dined in restaurants around the world and the flavor profile of the dishes - just exquisite. The service is second to none. All attention to detail, at certain points I did not even realize the waiters had been by. Friendly staff, oh I wish I had this where I live. I have family nearby and will be recommending. I will be back, no question.

We had the most magical dinner at The Charleston. The 5-course with wine pairings was incredible!
Magic comes at a price but if you have the means or a special occasion to celebrate choose the Charleston!

Fantastic experience - I love the create your own menu concept and everything we had was incredible! My favorites were the rich lobster soup with curry and the rabbit cassoulet special, as well as the cardamom creme brulee for dessert. Most of all I loved that it was fine dining but not too stuffy - we showed up in costume (since it was Halloween adjacent) and the staff were extra appreciative of the fun!
