Tapas Restaurants near Catonsville, MD

“So, awesome fried sushi burrito but poor instructions on the signs as to where the line starts, so several people went ahead of us and there is no place to sit because it is inside another restaurant so youre paying 15+ dollars for food to eat it in your car if you dont live close (not something that is going to be good cold or reheated)“

“Our favorite ore- movie small plates!“

“Octobar is one of my favorite spots in Federal Hill! Not only for its incredible food and drink selection, but for its truly outstanding service. I had to plan a last-minute going-away party, and Octavio made the entire process completely seamless. He handled every detail, from arranging the bartender to creating a custom drink menu featuring our favorite cocktails, and even made it easy for everyone to pay their tabs individually. The experience was truly one of a kind. I highly recommend booking Octobar whether you’re planning a night out for dinner and drinks or hosting a special gathering.“

“our office hosted the 2025 holiday party here and had an incredible time! The atmosphere was festive and fun, the dirty martinis were amazing, the food was delicious, and the service was top-notch. Overall, it was a fantastic experience I’ll definitely be coming back <3333“

“I dined there for the first time tonight, and I was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere is quaint, cozy, and perfectly decorated. The first two drinks that I got were absolutely amazing, as they were custom-made. We also tried a flight of tequila, which was also very delicious. We both got an entrée each, and got nachos and queso. It was all absolutely delicious. The waitress kept coming back to check on us and was very attentive. Thank you for a lovely evening. We’ll be back!“

“Stopped here for a light bite and was absolutely blown away by the depth of flavor in the Baingan bharta. Very clearly marked vegan options and super friendly staff. I can’t wait to come back for a full dinner! Updated from previous review on 2026-01-05“

“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!“
