Foods amazing, the ambiance is amazing, and the owner and service are so kind! A must try dinner spot! The pasta is refreshing, flavorful, and doesn't leave you feeling bloated or heavy afterwards. The brick oven pizza has some of the best crust I've ever had. Perfect mix of crunchy and soft! And you have to try the vodka wines, 8 dollars for a full glass that will last you the whole dinner. I'd reccomend the lemon vodka wine, it's deliciously refreshing. And I have to give the biggest props to the service. Not only is it dog friendly, but they brought out a bowl of water, and treats! I've been here a few times with my dog and they remembered him, and came over and said hi. They just make you feel very welcome to eat there. Great place to eat outside the city, hidden away from the hustle and bustle, but with flavorful, gourmet food. And run by very kind folks.

Came here recently for the first time since before the pandemic and had a great time! The ambiance is relaxed but still feels nice and the service was really great too. Highly recommend the brussel sprouts, the duck pizza, and the zeppoles with a scoop of Taharka Brothers ice cream!

Still very much one of my fave restaurants. On a Friday night at 5p, my group of 8 was the only table in the main dining area. It started to fill up around 6pm. GLOWS:-The mushroom pizza is still some of my fav!-Service was patient and efficient , as we tricked in because of the rain.-The bartenders are so good at making all kinds of drinks!---and pretty mocktails! GROWS:-The took the apple cake off the menu! I need an explanation because it was sooo very good!!

i came here without a reservation so unfortunately was not able to get a table but we were able to be seated at the bar. the waitstaff was pleasant and it was a full bar. we ordered the arugula salad, which was light and pleasant and exactly what you would expect. for the mains we got the duck leg and the margherita pizza. i really enjoyed the duck leg, it was very crispy and sweet, and the potatoes were excellent too. however, i was not impressed with the margherita pizza. it was just ok, lacking flavor, and i would honestly prefer the margherita from home slyce. water refills were minimal because it was so busy but sufficient. the two people i was out with both had food poisoning after this, but it's unfair to attribute it to the restaurant in my opinion. i would probably come here again if given the chance, if you're looking for a nicer dining experience that still has a cozy feel i would recommend it.

Wonderful food and pours. We stopped in Sunday at 5pm for dinner with our oldest son and his family. Everyone ordered the pizzas except for me and the one-year old. She had her usual, three meatball spaghetti and I ventured with the duck leg with arugula salad and duck fat fried potatoes. I was very much impressed. The three other adults were equally impressed with their pizzas. Service was outstanding. The Caribbean nitro stout was a treat to enjoy with my meal. The appetizers of fried chickpeas and the Brussels sprouts were excellent, as always. The building itself is unique with its stone walls and proximity to the Jones Falls. It has a large parking area. We recommend making reservations.

Well well, what can I say? I really really really wanted to love this place. But this place wouldn't let me be great. After attending a local Yelp event, I chose this place over one of my favorites because it was nearby and it has some really good Yelp reviews so I was really interested in visiting and sharing the same experience. I did not share that same experience.My Yelp friend and I decided to give this place a visit. When we 1st entered, there was a older guy named Mike. He was initially personable although really wasn't too helpful in identifying 2 seats. I asked about 2 bar seats in front of us and he told us no one was sitting there but it looks like someone has to clean it up. And that was it. He had no interest in wiping down the bar area for us or making arrangements with someone else to do it. That was a little bothersome.Another staff member (from the bar) did eventually agree to wipe the cluttered counter and we were pleased.Immediately when we sat down and requested water. ... I'm going to lessen the suspense about the water... we never got it. Collectively we ordered...- Mai Kinda Tai (Apricot Allspice Rum, Orgeat Syrup Grand Marnier, Lime Grapefruit)- Brussels Sprouts (Black Garlic Aioli, Chili Oil, Coppa)- Meatballs (House Ricotta, Tomato Sauce)- Crispy Pork BellySoon after ordering, we noticed an older couple walked in and not only were they greeted ecstatically, the older guy Mike actually cleaned off the bar area for them.Next, the bar guy Tim that was assisting us and never brought us waters, IMMEDIATELY brought them two waters. I didn't even hear them ask for water !!I'm not sure why we couldn't have water this evening but we just couldn't have water this evening.Waited 15+ minutes for bill after asking for it. Another 5 minutes while waiting for cc's and signature receipts. Something positive...The food was absolutely amazing! The food came out within 7 to 10 minutes of ordering, beautifully plated and delicious! Perfect temperature presentation!Sadly I was considering this place as one of my birthday event locations but that will not happen!! As much as I absolutely love the food, I can't go anywhere EVER where I'm not appreciated. It's 1 thing if the food wasn't as great but the customer service was bad and intentional.I can't deal with bad customer service.Do better!

Had a great experience at happy hour at Birroteca! With happy hour in the whole restaurant until 6, we were able to sit at a table and enjoy some great drink and appetizer specials! They offer Evo draft 10 Oz pours for $3 which is an awesome deal, and house wines for $5. I love a good red house wine (here they offer a really great Pinot Noir). For food we had the brussel sprouts from the happy hour menu which was a surprisingly large portion easily shared between 2! We also shared the mushroom risotto (amazing flavor--honestly a contender for best risotto in the city) and the cipolla pizza. The pizza was also delicious! Amazing flavor once again. Another highlight was that our server was super knowledgeable about the beer selection and was very friendly. Would absolutely come back to try more from the menu!
