Love Pomelo Reviews
Really enjoyed our first time here. Attentive service and great spacing of the dishes so you can try a lot but don't feel overwhelmed. Definitely get the Chef's Ceaser Salad!
The sauces here are distinct from other Italian places I have tried in Baltimore, and the pasta was impressively good.
This was my second visit to Love, Pomelo, and somehow it was even better than the first.
We ordered the Carbonara Verde and the Anchovy Toast, and both were incredible. The carbonara was rich and comforting without feeling too heavy, and the anchovy toast was the perfect balance of salty, creamy, and crisp. Every bite felt thoughtful and intentional.
What made this visit unforgettable, though, had nothing to do with the food.

Love Pomelo is a restaurant that offers excellent food and service in a tasteful and uncrowded setting. The restaurant has good acoustics and a pleasant music selection. The atmosphere combines casual and elegant elements, creating a lively yet comfortable environment. Many guests find the upstairs charming, but the downstairs area is considered cuter and more appealing.
The service is exceptional, with attentive staff who ensure a fine dining experience. They pay attention to detail, changing silverware for each course and replacing napkins. The owner, Min, is very present and clearly cares about his customers, which adds to the welcoming atmosphere.
The menu features dishes like pasta, tartare, and tiramisu, all prepared to a high standard. The seafood salad is particularly noteworthy for its perfect seafood doneness and flavor balance. Other dishes include Ostriche island creek oysters, a shrimp cocktail with aioli, scallop crudo, honey squash soup, blue crab spaghetti, and Arctic char. Guests have praised the strip steak as the best they’ve had, perfectly cooked and served with incredible chimichurri sauce.
While the food is generally excellent, some dishes could benefit from a touch more seasoning or a simplification of ingredients. The pace of the meal can be quick, leaving little time to savor each course. Despite these minor points, Love Pomelo provides a very pleasant dining experience with high-quality food and attentive service at a reasonable price.
