I love the onion soup. My mom the Margueritas. Service was excellent. Young lady knows how to respond to customers needs. We will be going back and bringing friends.“

“Have loved C.R. wings since they opened in Bel Air. Wanted to try this location and they did not disappoint. Staff was very attentive. Food was good and didn’t take super long. Between the 5 of us 50 wings were ordered, fries, and other items. 10/10 would recommend“

“Food and Service was Excellent.“

“Amazing food here! I was truly shocked by the blast of flavors my meal had in it. I forgot the name of the food I ordered, but it was an omelet with some chicken tenders inside with something yummy on top (I also forgot what it was LOL) with grits on the side. I didn't know the side was going to be extremely small, but it was delicious at least. I'd say the size if the omelet and the taste it had in it made up for it since it's the main dish. The maple- i think bourbon sausage was also tasty!! Ai Would definitely recommend giving it a try here just to try!“

“Just simply fantastic! Cool vibe & excellent bartender Erin. She gave us an amazing history of the bar and the Grand Mariner club. This is a “must see” destination when visiting Baltimore.“

“Ordered carryout for a birthday party at a local venue and coordination was so easy. Food was great and ready on time and I felt really well taken care of! Even though some items I wanted weren't on the brunch menu they let me order in advance and go off-menu. Highly recommend!“

“Excellent“

“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.“

“My wife and I were in Baltimore for a wedding and stayed the night. The next morning we found Ale Mary's for brunch, and it was incredible. The prices are so reasonable, the food was delicious and the service was so friendly. We live in Northern Virginia but this place is seriously worth the trip up 95.“

“Amazing food, great area and atmosphere“

“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“

“We get carryout dinner here at least 1 night a week. We love all of the Greek dishes, crabcakes, soups, salads and desserts. The turkey and hot beef platters are also very good. (Ask for gravy on the side.) I have never had anything I didn't not like.“

“Great place to enjoy live music!!!“

“Tasty, affordable, premade meals and goodies. Absolute gem here in Parkville. Will be back frequently.“

“So good! Loved the shrimp and grits especially, great spot for brunch!

More recent update: I’ve been here several more times and the food is excellent. Service is also wonderful and they were really great for a large group I had in town recently, highly recommend!“

“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“

“After living in the area for 5 years we finally visited Pairings Bistro tonight.
We were celebrating our 20th anniversary and I’m so glad we chose Pairings to do so. The restaurant is quite beautiful , the staff were friendly and knowledgeable and the food was amazing. Loved being able to chose between pre fixe 3 or 4 course meals and à la carte for dinner and of course the wine pairing option. With the many choices for lunch or dinner and seasonal menu this is sure to become one of our new go to restaurants. We could go numerous times a month and have something new and exciting each time. Thanks for the wonderful service and delicious food and wines.“

“This was my husband and I's first time at McFauls. We came for a late lunch and chose to eat at the outside bar. The menu, food and prices were all amazing! Our bartender, Jake was very personable and friendly and gave perfect service!!! Delicious drinks! Everything was above and beyond. There were so many delicious choices on the menu, we can't wait to come back to try more! We had the buffalo chicken wonton special, the Italian stallion sub special and I got the blackened Mahi Mahi tacos all 10/10.“

“premiere dining experience with delicious food, cocktails, and a very welcoming and knowledgeable staff!! Will definitely be back!“

“Fresh and flavorful seafood! Excellent service every time I go!“

“Staff and service is superb with great recommendations. Food is really good. Ambience is very nice inside. Prices are affordable, and you can get some of their wine and food to take home if available in their store next door. We took home the honey nut jam that we had with our cheese board for desert and loved it. We can have at home now too with some of the wine we brought home.“

“DELICIOUS 🤤 MOUTH-watering! Professional catering! ( plus, the restaurant is a daily must). 🤤“

“Honey glazed salmon was amazing“

“is it a Spanish joint now?“

“don't know if it was the server or the kitchen but our food took forever and then my salad was incorrect. I asked for no tomatoes they gave me tomatoes but no cheese. asked for cookies and creme ice cream took half hour for Ice cream to come out when I told our server to cancel the ice cream cause I had to be out forest hill by 230 and it was already 130 ,(we had already been there 1 1/2 hours for 2 kids meals a sandwich and salad) then the ice cream came out incorrect so I canceled my ice cream order. it was early in the afternoon no line at the window and only 6 tables of guest all small groups.“

“Great little place that serves up some really delicious food. Their food isn’t fancy, but you come here not for presentation but for flavor. Their burgers hit the spot, and fries are well seasoned. In my opinion the pit beef could use a little more seasoning… but the barbecue sauce elevates it and the quantity you get in those sandwiches makes it worth stopping by.“

“I stopped by on a Sunday night. The bar seemed packed and there was a single bartender, a tall young man with long hair, running around taking care of everyone. His hard work and service really impressed me and encouraged me to leave a review. I had a bacon cheese burger and it was delicious. This place has a fantastic atmosphere.“

“We had an incredible experience. The service was fast, the staff were welcoming, the food was delicious. Looking forward to try more items on the menu soon!“

“Had a great meal with my wife“

“It’s the local Dawgs bar. What more needs to be said?“

“Friendly staff and yummy food plus tacos“

“My daughter chose pies over a wedding cake for her reception. We ordered multiple flavors and they were such a hit with the guests. Everyone was excited to see the variety and enjoyed them immensely. This turned out to be such a success and I recommend others try pies in lieu of cake, and you cannot go wrong with Dangerously. 😋“

“everything is delicious! getting the NY strip with crab cake, to the pasta, the steak tacos, the burgers and crab dip. everything we've ever gotten has been amazing 💪💪💪“

“Great little local down to earth restaurant. The food was superbly prepared with attention to detail. The ingredients were very fresh and cooked to perfection.
The welcoming atmosphere makes it feel like home. We look forward to coming back every few weeks and definitely are interested in coming your way the special dinner events.“

“Cute little spot (little being the key word). Drinks were great, I got a cocktail and my friend got the cappuccino. The coffee was one of the best she has had and my cocktail was nice. The food was delicious, they specialize in biscuits and you definitely have to try them. The table next to us got the monkey bread and it looked to die for, will definitely be ordering that next time. Service was a little slow but I think that had to do with the layout of the space and how new the place is. They are still trying to figure out their groove.

Parking: You need to be able to parallel park to drive here.“

“Home cooking. Staff is friendly and helpful.“

“Buffalo arancini spring salad w egg lemon curd dessert“

“We’ve been at a job site working concrete and Grace (Owner of the establishment) has provided Wilcox Concrete with quality food and service every single day. We’ve been here for over a month and she has given us free food and drink. Very hospitable and welcoming!“

“One of our favorite breakfast spots. Best creamed chipped beef ever and the coffee keeps coming!“

“I celebrated my daughter's 16th birthday. It was a beautiful experience and budget friendly. The food was great and customer service was very good. The ambience was nice and the music was not loud. I am giving a 4 star only because we hoped the place would have a little dessert for the birthday girl. Overall my experience was great. Will recommend.“

“ALWAYS delicious! wonderful friendly staff, & even better food!“

“I love this place. My husband I haven’t got a bad meal out of here yet. The waitresses are wonderful. This is my husband and I to go to restaurant.“

“I just wanted to say what an awesome experience Barracudas and Billy provided for my family. We held a surprise 90th birthday party for my Mom there on Saturday and it was perfect. The food was delicious as usual and the service was phenomenal. Abby did a great job taking care of us. Big shout out to the kitchen staff and everyone else who assisted in making my Mom feel loved and appreciated. I live 2 hours from the restaurant, but I make it a point to stop in almost everytime for food and drinks. Everyone has their own opinion concerning the restaurant and staff. In 10 years I have never had a bad experience here or seen anything out of the ordinary reacting to the staff or ownership. I have seen intoxicated patrons but that's it. Do yourself a favor and stop in for a meal or a drink. You won't be disappointed.“

“I just have to share the fantastic experience we had tonight. My husband and I went to The Local around 6:30 pm (prime time without reservations lol). The only available seats were a high top table in the bar area. They asked us if that was ok and we said “sure”. Within a minute or so after being seated, it became apparent that our vision of a nice relaxing dinner would be impossible in that room. The Preakness was about to begin, and that bar was loud and hopping! Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining, I love to see people enjoying themselves. It was a party, but just wasn’t our vibe tonight. We decided we would go elsewhere. We politely informed the hostess that we were going to leave because it was just a tad too noisy, but that we would definitely return again soon. We stressed that we were not mad, or upset. As we were walking to our car, a very nice gentleman followed us out and asked if we would consider returning if they could sit us elsewhere. We said “Of course!” We didn’t think there were any other available tables, but he said they would work something out for us. We told him we didn’t expect them to go out of their way for us and that we could wait. Within five minutes, we were seated at a lovely table in the dining room. We later learned the gentleman that helped us was none other than the owner/ executive chef Zack. We went on to have a delicious dinner with the most attentive and charming server. They demonstrated exemplary customer service, which sadly is lacking in many other establishments. We weren’t expecting any special treatment, but they certainly went above and beyond for us, and it was very much appreciated! When we were leaving, Zack happened to be outside, so he made sure to ask how our experience was. We told him it was amazing, and that his restaurant has been one of our favorites since it opened. We told him we would be back soon. Our experience there tonight is just one of many examples why this restaurant stands out, and why we will always highly recommend them! Thank you all so much for proving customer service is not a dying art!“

“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!“

“Enjoyed the delicious Maryland Club sandwich and a tasty Caesar salad. Ms. Rachel and the wait staff were amazing and welcoming. The Brunch Menu offers a few tasty options, as well. No matter what you choose, your meal will be a joy to your palette. Will surely return soon.“

“Best ice cream and service in Harford County. I went to the Churchville location and Patrick did an excellent job with my sundae all while being friendly and courteous“

“I just got a Cheesesteak from Bmore Greek Grill in front of Seven Oaks Elementary School and it was amazing, so delicious, words can’t capture the awesomeness of this Cheesesteak Wrap! You will see me again!“
