This review is painful to write. For years I've sent people here to see what Baltimore can do. Great food! Reasonably priced (full disclosure, family celebrations are mostly at Charleston next door). And a beautiful view! On the water. With a walkway next to east Harbor hotels. Tonight I loved the cheese but the food was way too spicy to eat. Painfully spicy. Uncomfortable to eat . Not enjoyable. When I told the waitress I couldn't eat it due to the spice she said yeah, she has heard that before. I suggested that she bring some bread. "I guess I can do that" It's not that the food wasn't good. It was inedible due to the spice. The cheese appetizer was creamy and a 10/10. The main course was straight hot sauce. Staff said great would you like to order more?How about ordering dessert? I couldn't eat the food ordered, and I didn't want to order more. Waitstaff wasn't helpful "should I bring you the check? I got another glass of wine, but staff brought the bill with the wine. This place has been open 19 years. It is a close cousin to the best that Baltimore has to offer. When good, this place is great. Tonight wasn't one of those nights. read more
