    OBSESSED pretty much covers it! This adorable cafe opened right as I moved to the neighborhood, and I fully intend to make it my regular go-to spot. What's not to love about a cozy spot that has a fantastic wines, delicious empanadas, and a curated selection of other items ranging from fresh produce and imported sardines to books and pints of Taharka ice cream? If that weren't enough, the decor and vibes can make you forget where you are and believe you're vacationing in Portugal. The owners are a friendly couple who have clearly put a lot of thought and care into creating a welcoming atmosphere and sense of community. They've hosted wine tastings, game nights, and a variety of other events, and encourage neighbors to hang out there to sip coffee while they work remotely. Part of me is selfishly tempted to keep this place a hidden gem to avoid overcrowding, but I can't help but share how great it is (much like my thoughts on Baltimore as a whole). It's an easy walk from the water taxi for those across the harbor, so there's no excuse not to check it out!

    The empanadas and tostones were fantastic, and the platanos rellenos were a revelation.

    We finally got to check this spot out! It's been on my list for a while. It's a great place to hang…read moreout on a warm, sunny day! I tried a glass of the 2024 Karl Josef Piesporter, and it was sweet without being overwhelming. It has a laid back vibe, so there's no rush to leave. It's a great place to sit and chat for a while. They're dog friendly, though I will say the dog next to us got a little active with their friend, which was a bit distracting. Overall, it still had a quaint atmosphere. The service was on the slower side, but we weren't in a rush. Just keep that in mind if you're looking for a quicker stop because this spot might not be your best pick. I really enjoyed the wine and the waterfront views, so I'll definitely be back!

We ordered two vodka lemonades and two spicy margaritas. A little later he brought out a cheese board and said he was training someone, they had made an extra one, and he wanted us to have it for free. Super nice of him! We sat there enjoying our drinks, the cheese board, and watching the Blue Angels fly by. Great atmosphere. When we asked for the bill it was $73. Keep in mind, that's for four drinks because everything else was given to us for free. We never asked for the peach drink or the cheese board--he offered them. We paid the bill and left a good tip, but come on...$73 for four basic drinks is crazy. Just be aware if you're stopping in. The drinks are not cheap. Even with the free extras, it didn't feel like a good value.

We were excited but needed to try it for ourselves to see if it still had the Amadeo's service, great food, and ambiance! Let me tell you I want to gate keep. I really, really do. But this place is doing it right. The ambiance is the same but with a hip new twist. Same lovely old time bar but new artwork and table set up. The service was still top notch. Becca was still there and we were so happy to see her! The staff were so nice and all of this was before the food. They had experts in wines to help us pair with the meal. But we were blown away by the food! We got the tomato pie. Now stop there. That tomato pie is 100% perfection. I'm not over exaggerating! 100% perfect. I will die on that hill any day. The yellow tail crudo was light and freshing after that rich pie. But it was a perfect platelet cleanser before the mezza manichie. The pasta sauce was light while also savory. It was honestly the perfect meal. I know they switch up the menu but please keep that tomato pie! It's so damn good. I can't give Amadeo's higher than a 5 star, but I would if I could. It's a smaller place so plan ahead. But we will be back time and time again. Thanks for keeping this lovely Little Italy staple open and thriving.

    This place was such a delight. We came here with our kids and they just loved this experience…read more The restaurant has a gigantic bocce ball court that takes up much of the first level. We were seated at a table that overlooked the court and a digital screen that flashed beautiful photos of Italy's top tourist spots. My kids were thrilled when they saw Venice, since they just learned about it in school. After ordering food, I took the kids to the bocce court while my partner could enjoy the wine and watch us from above. I know he appreciated having the break and a good glass of wine to go with it. Service was friendly and the food was fantastic. We ordered several dishes including several types of pasta, meatballs, cheesy bread and a caesar salad. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere and a great vibe overall. I already have a reservation when we pass through Baltimore again in a few weeks.

    I realize this might be controversial, but La Scala just doesn't blow me away like it does for some…read morepeople. I came here for a birthday dinner for my friend. There was about 8 of us and we were seated downstairs in the bar area at a high top. Despite there being a reservation, it felt like our party was a last minute thought. The table was cramped and the ambiance of the downstairs bar area was dingy and dimly-lit. Our server, who was also the only bartender, did his best to multi task all night, although his demeanor was not very warm or friendly. I ordered the gluten free version of the Samantha fettuccine. Despite this being the only noodle they don't make in house, I had to pay extra for it. Annoying, but not totally unexpected. What was disappointing was the total price for the dish. It came out to be almost $50.... I believe the pasta is marked as market price due to the inclusion of crab meat but when it arrived, there was barely any in the dish. The flavor of the sauce was good but definitely not worth the price tag. I won't be returning anytime soon.

I went an hour early before everyone else was supposed to be there to get on the waitlist, but the wait was until 10 pm!! So I quickly switched gears and called Benny's because I've heard great things about them. The gentlemen who answered the phone was so kind, and was able to squeeze us in on the fly on a Saturday night, and they weren't slow. Got there super early because I was already in the area, and my wife and I decided to have an old fashioned and an espresso martini at the bar while we waited and they were excellent. The ambiance was upscale but still managed to be relaxed and comfortable. We had a lovely dinner, the waiter was busy but was still attentive and patient. Our whole experience was awesome, so we were already going back in the future. Yesterday I realized a mistake on my bank account from the bar charge, so I called around 6 pm and spoke to the same gentlemen as before. He got all my info and promised he'd call back in 5 minutes. I didn't really expect 5 minutes because I know how crazy the dinner rush would be at an Italian restaurant with a Wednesday wine special. Not even 3 minutes later he called back, and explained what happened, fixed it and I got a follow up text immediately letting us know the refund was already in process. Now, I've been in the service industry and I was a bartender, so I understand that I'm going to be a little biased here but from beginning to end Benny's went above and beyond. They clearly appreciate their customers and love their work, it shows.

Whether you're stopping by for cocktails or a full meal, the setting is beautiful, and the bar has an impressive variety of drinks. The bar staff was also super friendly and welcoming. One thing I noticed was the DJ booth above the bar. Unfortunately, on a Saturday night around 9:00 p.m., there wasn't much of an atmosphere. The music was so low and monotone that you could barely hear it, and the entire space felt a bit stuffy. With views like these, I expected a much livelier vibe. Someone who visits regularly told us this place used to be much more energetic when there was a DJ, but lately it's become pretty quiet. I can definitely see the potential because the venue itself is gorgeous--it just seemed to be missing the energy that would make people want to stay. We ended up leaving after one drink because the atmosphere felt like a bit of a yawn. That said, I'd still recommend stopping in for a cocktail and to enjoy the incredible views. Hopefully they'll bring back the DJ and revive the fun, vibrant atmosphere this place seems built for.

They gave us our own private room, it was a nice dinner that made our visit more enjoyable. Cocktails are a must and I went with my go to drink, the Old Fashioned. While drinks are being served, we're ordering sharable food for the table. At any Capital Grille, from New York to Maryland each restaurant has a similar menu. We started with a large seafood tower. If you haven't had the seafood tower, it's so choice and highly recommended. The shrimp was so fresh, the same with the oysters. No one really likes oysters so more for me. Mmm mm.. We over ordered too much food but I left room for dessert. I ordered Crème Brûlée served with seasonal berries. I know The Capital Grille is a chain but that dessert was fire! Very fresh and tasted amazing. The Capital Grille in Baltimore's Inner Harbor was a great place for a celebration dinner. Highly recommended.
