“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“

“Friendly and professional service, love the bar!“

“I love this place because of the great menu. I am lactose intolerant but eat meat. There are few places that allow you to customize items to cater both of things (generally, if places have this many alternative milk and cheeses, they are vegan - which can be great to be fair. Many places have no alternative milk for coffee). I only go during off hours though, their busy hours are too intense for me (but that’s unavoidable because they are so popular).

I have taken a star off service for the manager and owner, because they took away required tipping (this was implemented during covid) and then told me that since ppl complained about it, this was “more democratic” . It was a really stupid excuse that was worded to appeal to my (assumed) politics. I KNOW your staff isn’t getting paid enough, this decision is cruel. Red Emma’s can afford to include required tips with orders, why can’t you?“

“Buffalo arancini spring salad w egg lemon curd dessert“

“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.“

“Amazing food! Really good service, too.“

“Cloud Shrimp - Juicy shrimp fried in potato starch, served w Kimchi-kewpie Mayo“

“Great food, great drinks, great service and atmosphere.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“What can I say? It's exceedingly rare to get that combination of fantastic food, imaginative and great drinks, a top view, and vibes all in one spot. Topside hits every one of those check boxes and does it with fantastic service as well!“

“Food was great , service was great. No complaints.“

“The food was AMAZING! We can’t wait to go back!!“

“Fantastic food as well as professional friendly service.“

“Delicious sizzling plates and the fish tacos were fantastic, thanks our server (Christen) was excellent he was delightfully nice!“

“We stopped by on a whim and loved the experience! Quiet on a rainy Thursday. The vibe was so cool … reminded me of New Orleans! We sat at the bar and were looking for something non-alcoholic and bartender Bong made us each a delicious bespoke cocktail based on our preferred flavor profiles and even showed us the aperitifs. Will definitely be going back!“

“Very good place. I generally prefer smaller owner operated establishments to big national or international chains. It always feels better to spend your money with them and when the overall experience is as rewarding as it is here it’s extra good!! Props to Spoons, they ace it“

“This is an absolutely delightful place. It has indoor and outdoor seating with a very cozy atmosphere. The food was very good and the service very pleasant. The buttermilk biscuits sound simple, but they’re a delicious and filling option if you’re looking for something that’s not too sweet. The neighborhood (36th St) offers a lot of interesting places to check out, too.“

“I happened to drive by and see people sitting outside eating. It looked like a great place to stop. I went by myself. I was able to find free parking right outside the restaurant. The menu I was looking at was mostly breakfast and brunch. The price range was about $15 on up. I got a gingerale and their house wings as well as fries. Everything was good.. My bill was $21. The waitress was very attentive and nice and gave recommendations. I would recommend checking this place out. It had a nice atmosphere.“

“We loved our experience at Verandah Kitchen. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish packed with flavor and beautifully presented. We ordered a variety of small plates, and each one was a hit. The vibe was perfect—great music, welcoming ambiance, and a space that felt both lively and comfortable.

The service was top-notch from start to finish. Warm, attentive, and thoughtful. We even had the chance to meet the owner, who was incredibly kind and engaging—it’s clear this place is run with a lot of heart.

We’re already planning our next visit and have a growing list of dishes we’re excited to try. Highly recommend Verandah Kitchen for anyone looking for memorable food and a standout dining experience!“

“Oh boy, let me tell you about the pre-game magic we experienced at Johnny's! With a high school state championship soccer game at Loyola on our agenda, my friend, her daughter, and I were on the hunt for the perfect spot to fuel up before the excitement. And boy, did we hit the jackpot with Johnny's! Walking into Johnny's was like finding a hidden gem in a treasure map. The cozy vibes wrapped around us like a warm blanket on a chilly Sunday—it was just what we needed! We settled ourselves at the bar, eager for some drinks and snacks, and that’s where the real fun began. Our bartender was nothing short of a beverage maestro! I ordered a cortado that was so perfectly crafted I nearly swooned. Seriously, it should have been on the cover of a coffee magazine! And let me tell you about their wine list—it’s like a unique art piece. I picked a Pinot Noir to accompany my house-made Old Bay chips, and it was such a delightful pairing that I felt like a sophisticated sommelier for a moment. Now, my bourbon-loving friend was over the moon to discover that Johnny's stocked his all-time favorite brand, FEW. After indulging in wine and coffee that could make any day brighter, we just had to cap off our relaxed Sunday with a round of bourbon. Because what’s a pre-game without a little celebratory sip, right? My friend and her daughter were enjoying their vanilla latte and mocha to the fullest—let’s just say the smiles on their faces were positively radiant! And the cookies? Oh my goodness! The gingerbread and peanut butter cookies were instant crowd-pleasers. I’m pretty sure I’d fight a bear for another bite! Now, here’s the kicker: my friend might live in sunny Florida, but I’m ready to brave the Washington Beltway traffic any time just to return to Johnny's. If they nail snacks and drinks this well before a soccer game, I can't even imagine what kind of culinary genius they have up their sleeves! So, Johnny's, you’ve stolen my heart (and my taste buds)—I’m already counting down the days until my next visit!“

“I had an emotionlly weird day until Aryel and D gave me the best service! They work well together, as a previous bartender/waitress myself you can spot top tier chemistry! The teamwork makes the dream“

“Very very basic. Nothing interesting as far as flavors. Barely any chicken and a TON of noodles. Only taste is sweet. Disappointed and won’t return“

“Excelente ambiente, variedad de comida y cervezas 👍🏼“

“My wife and I decided at the last minute to go out on a Saturday evening and we picked Marie Louise Bistro for dinner. We sat outside and had a genuinely wonderful meal! While you often see the same staff there for years, our server this time was young and new to the industry. Despite that, you could tell she had received training from the other staff, and she did a fantastic job. A very good sign! She had another waiter show her how to open and pour the wine, but aside from that we’d have barely known she was new to the job. As for the food, it was excellent. I’d give 9 or 10 out of 10 for everything and my wife enjoyed her meal too. I had a 3-course that included a surf and turf special, and my wife had duck confit. It’s incredibly reasonably priced for the quality of food IMO. A gem of a restaurant! If any of you reading this have never been then I’d definitely recommend a visit!“

“Ms. Texas was an amazing waitress. 10/10 environment with fast service and friendly employees!“

“Such a cute, quaint hideaway...super friendly...fast and friendly!!! Baltimore should be proud!!!“

“Had a great time at the avenue. Aniyah is definitely the MVP. She made sure we had a great time bringing lots of energy and good service. AS A HOST!“

“Updated Review! I returned recently to The Land of Kush and I had the absolute pleasure of trying the vegan crab cake wrap. I was blown away! The flavors were perfectly balanced—savory, satisfying, and every bit a testament to the culinary magic happening in their kitchen by the young lady with the loc's who gave me the warmest greeting. The texture of the crab cake was spot-on, giving that authentic "crabby" feel without any of the guilt. The freshness of the wrap ingredients complemented the crab cake beautifully, making for a meal that's as vibrant as it is delicious. If you're looking for a spot that knows how to elevate plant-based cuisine to an art form, look no further. The Land of Kush is officially one if my go-to for amazing vegan eats. Don't walk—run to try this masterpiece! been Stamped by Ai.... #stampedbyAi #trustedsource #trustedadvisor #trustedreview“

“The food here is amazing; my non-Vegan husband finished his meal before mine and promptly said 'I'd eat here again'. However, the atmosphere is odd- a little bit dingy and no attention to detail. Totally willing to look passed that for the food, though!“

“Mariah did said the Birthday ? Cake was her favorite and as I tasted them. They were bussin wit da baaaannnngggggiinnnn-nism.... All 12 of my multi-selections with vegan cookies were gangsta. But yeah.... I recommend the IC on SC... Y'all go try Crumbl Cookie down NC too!“

“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 :)“

“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!“

“Amazing food and decor! Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We had the opportunity to visit with the owner, she was absolutely one of the coolest people! We also purchased some art right off the wall!“

“🤤 AMAZING blueberry cheesecake!! 🫐“

“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 get the weekly lunchbox and it is awesome. The flavors are great and it allows me to get so many more veggies in my diet and keeps me going through the work day. Pick up is easy, communication via email is easy, and staff is friendly. Highly recommend!“

“7 members of our family stopped here while visiting Baltimore. We had pizza & wings and all was good and done right. Our waitress, Lauren was attentive, was very friendly, curious and also a bit witty! If in Baltimore it is worth looking this establishment up!“

“Just enjoyed the yummiest ice cream ever with my family!!!! We absolutely LOVED THE 🪩 disco ball vibes and the atmosphere was so fun!! 🤩“

“Lots of hidden fees. The cheese steak is marked at $22, but to buy one, I had to pay over $30 for takeout. The cheese steak was medium to medium small in size. It was decently satisfying, not great, not particularly good. The mandatory inclusion of fries it came with were small in size and exceptionally good, I got the sweet potatoe version. No free parking. The pricing strategy seems very deliberately misleading in the extreme and might be illegal. If it weren't for the hidden fees and small portions, I'd happily recommend this and it's sister restuarant slutty vegan to anyone looking for a good bite but until things change, it's a last resort. I hope they prosper, though.“

“Food and Service was Excellent.“

“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.“

“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.“
