“it was the highlight of my day to come to Carrabba's with my wife. We were nearby and always come to Carrabba's for our favorite dish. Fettuccine Carrabba! It's the best and the people that work here in Pasadena are the sweetest most accommodating out of all of them. I love the atmosphere, the cleanliness, the service and the food. The manager "Ben" is fantastic too!“

“I've been eating steaks for decades. It took 40 years to find the best steak in....well...actually the world (because I've had steaks from Taiwan to Bogota) right here at Tagliata. It was the best.“

“I recommend Limoncello Baltimore for delicious food and nice atmosphere! Baltimore is known for its restaurants and Limoncello demonstrates great quality and excellent service.“

“We are visiting from Canada. We received fantastic service and the food was incredible. The restaurant even helped us get back to our hotel when the cab didn't show up as our phones weren't working. Thank you Abigail and the hostess (unfortunately I can't remember her name). They ended our evening on a positive note which won't be forgotten 🤗. 5 stars.“

“Quick and attentive service, delicious pasta (house made capellini with tomato sauce -big portion), attractive setting, but very noisy - hard to hear one another. Maybe this was just where we were seated (party of two); larger groups seemed able to have conversations. We'll be back when it's milder weather and sit outside.“

“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“

“My wife and I went here and could not have chosen a better spot. They call themselves, by them, I mean Amedeos (the Dad) and his delightful daughter, Becca a Wine Bar. It's much more than that. A quaint little Trattoria with about 5 tables and a long bar with about 10 seats turns this establishment into a full comfort zone with excellent food, wine, customer service & interactions with other patrons.
Amedeos and Becca are lovely people.“

“Great food and wonderful staff!! The service was the best. The whole place is just beautiful. Will definitely be back.“

“Our first visit and we will definitely be back!!! Service from Jennifer D. was excellent and set the tone for the rest of the meal. Food was outstanding.“

“Just had the lasagna. Excellent with lots of ooey gooey cheese. Highly recommend trying this.“

“First time here. Excellent food and ambiance! I got a drink and fettuccine Alfredo. Delicious. Everyone who works here is very nice as well. Huge space- they have space for events as well“

“Costiera is small, inviting, and absolutely worth a visit. From the moment we arrived, the service stood out as impeccable. The staff was attentive without ever hovering, quick with suggestions, and made us feel genuinely taken care of.

When we walked in, there were two tables available right away, but they asked if we’d mind waiting just a minute so they could seat us at a much better window table. That kind of thoughtfulness goes a long way these days, and we really appreciated it. Our server checked in often, was kind, and gave fantastic recommendations that made us feel like we ordered the very best of the menu.

The food was excellent across the board. The pasta was perfectly cooked and tasted even better than it looked. The octopus was a standout dish—tender, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Everything we tried was balanced, well-executed, and memorable.

All in all, we had a flawless experience here. Costiera delivers on service, food, and atmosphere. Highly recommend, especially if you’re looking for something a little different done really well.“

“I've enjoyed their outstanding menu for over 15yrs.“

“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!“

“I can only recommend the cheese steaks here because that's all I ever get but would be willing to bet other things are great too. Quick service polite staff good food .. hard to beat this place IMO.“

“Never disappointed. Food always very good.“

“My daughter and I are in Baltimore for the week. I am 100% Italian and she was craving pasta. After some research I settled on Chiapparelli’s. We went for lunch today. Loved the old school atmosphere and the food was delicious. Eating out has gotten so expensive and I am often disappointed with the food. Not today! We will be back every time we are in Baltimore.“

“Ordered a meatball sub and fries. And definitely one of the best meatball subs I’ve ever had“

“Wonderful, wonderful experience! Not only did we have a good experience on Thursday night with our basketball team, but when we called again on Friday they remembered us. Commented on how well behaved our school was. We ended up ordering 15 pizzas for Friday night, they gave us 20 bucks off and carried all 15 pizzas to the car for us. We will definitely be back! Bayview Seahawks thank you.“

“On weekend trip to aquarium and came here after reading reviews cuz the grandkid wanted pasta. Arrived about 7 and got the last table. Server quickly arrived for drink order then manager came quickly behind to take the food order. Though he was moving things along, we did not feel rushed. Food was great! Half order of spaghetti with one giant meatball was perfect for our 12 year old granddaughter. Italian and cheesesteak subs were big and we each only ate half. If you get the side salad, you better like parm (we do!). Great draft beer selection including IPAs.“

“This restaurant is and always will be my favorite the pizza and subs are to die for that was my place go when I lived in Baltimore now every time I visit thats my place to go“

“I had a wonderful experiencia at Romano's pizzaría! The food was absolutely delicious,the prices are great and the place is clean. What stood out the most was the customer service. The Cashier was super friendly and welcoming and even brought my orden out to my car! Highly recommend“

“I love getting Vince’s “wine of the day.” So many great options with fair pricing. Sandwiches are very delicious as well.“

“Hands-down best pizza in town!!!“

“Just a great old school Italian restaurant. Meal was fantastic. People very friendly. I highly recommend.“

“I am picky when it comes to salads but they have the best and most fresh salad from any other restaurant I’ve been to. I just buy the house salad and use the house dressing and li e it so much. I wish I had a pic to share but next time I’m there I will take one and update my review. Service is always great. Alex is always so helpful and welding when I go in there so is everyone else.“

“Great food good service and atmosphere“

“The best gluten free pizza I have ever had. Amazing.“

“Very friendly staff, food is always hot and fresh, I love that they have beef pepperoni for people who don't eat pork , and it's family oriented , it's ran by an entire family from grandpa, son , grandson , daughters..we have hope in baltimore“

“My family and I stopped in Mario's to grab a bite to eat after watching a movie at the Senator Theater across the street from it and believe me when I say that the pizza is outstandingly delicious ???. Also, the service is outstanding as well. The owner took time out of his duties to check on us and that all is well. This is definitely a pizza place that I am going to be visiting often.“
