"Food was amazing. You get so much food. The food was very fresh and hot. Mashed potatoes and mac and cheese are homemade. Great atmosphere for couples or families. The service was great. Server came around for drinks and checking on us."
"Located in Le Fantome Food Hall in Riverdale Park is Casper's. All these years I've seen the bar and for the first time realized it has its own name. This Yelp Elite was sure to add the business and check in. For dinner my significant other and I chose to dine at Le Fantome and why not enjoy Happy Hour at Casper's. Bartender was super friendly and the margaritas were amazing! Although the food venues change, Casper's is long standing! Ambiance is typical bar/food hall scene and definitely worth a visit!"
"My second time here and I was again charmed. I can't decide if it's the food or service I like better. They are both excellent. The menu has dishes that are somewhat traditional Maryland staples but each one has a special twist that takes it to a new level. One of my favorites is the Roasted Local Oysters with Chorizo sausage, fresh mozzarella and garlic butter served with sliced baguette. YUM! But I also can't say enough about the service. The staff are super accommodating. It's almost like they can anticipate what you want or they try to imagine how to provide you with the best experience. This will always be at the top of my list when I visit Annapolis!"
"We came in on a Saturday night for dinner and it was about 15 minute wait. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout the dinner. We ordered a few entrees and a dinner salad. Everything came out hot and fresh. We were able to pay for our meal using the QR code."
"I've been back several times now, and they've definitely gotten better. The drinks have been consistent, service is mostly pretty good unless it's extremely busy, and the food is exactly what you'd expect but has been good. They have also been really good about noticing and fixing errors with the orders. Recently, they overcooked our caulflower crust pizza to a burnt crisp, but the server immediately noticed as they were bringing the food to us, and took it back to the kitchen to be remade. Also, the patio is really wonderful when the weather is nice!"
"I am completely enamored with everything about The Prime Rib. One walk up the steps into the dining room that is adorned with leopard print carpet and a live piano player, I knew that I was in a place I would enjoy.We opted to sit at the bar, and Dan and Austin took care of us. At around 6:30 on a Sunday this bar was absolutely popping. Thankfully, a large party at the bar had a table resi so we snagged seats in the corner of the bar and began a lovely journey of martinis, carbs and of course prime rib.We started with the house salad which was great. We also split what I heard was one of their most popular dishes - a potato skin basket. I am unsure how I lived 36 years of life without ever experiencing such a thing. Who doesn't want perfectly crispy potatoes to be topped with horseradish and sour cream? It was DIVINE.On to the main - we opted to split the prime rib. It's a hefty 14 oz portion so you definitely want to share. There are a variety of sauces you can have with your entrees here, and we opted for bernaise. It also comes with horseradish. For sides, we got the creamed spinach and mashed potatoes. Life hack, save a potato skin and top it with creamed spinach. The great Anna S showed me this hack, and I am here to say this woman knows what's up.In terms of drinks, I of course had to order a dirty martini. This is a classic steakhouse dirty. It is filled to the brim, so much so they don't even add the olives into the drink until you take a few sips. The olives are hand stuffed with blue cheese and a wonderful salty addition to the briny martini of your dreams.This place is a total vibe. The bar has its own menu as well featuring sandwiches and a burger so I feel there is something to enjoy for every price point and craving here.Loved my experience, and especially loved knowing this has been family-owned and operated restaurant in Baltimore since 1965! A great steakhouse, good hospitality, and martinis truly never go out of style."
"Great parking, great service, great food, and great music! I've heard about Highlands and I'm so happy that I've finally given it a try. We went for dinner and drinks and both were delicious. Can't wait to try them for breakfast."
"I've always have my eye on this place every time I'm in town. My father just gave me a local magazine that showed all the best places in the area. Luna blu kept getting mentioned. I booked an 11:45 reservation for my father and I for their lunch specialParking is street parking and they do have parking garages in the area This cute little Italian place is tucked by rams head tavern and other places. As soon as we walked in we got greeted by staff and was sat right away. 5 stars for that. This is a cozy little place. I'm a sucker for locally owned Italian places. Everyone was extremely welcoming and our server was nice, but she didn't refill our drinks at allWe decided to get their two course lunch special (which comes with two glasses of wine) and you have a TON OF OPTIONS. You get to pick one appetizer to share and two lunch options (if you don't drink you can get a soda instead) We picked the - Bruschetta, which had a lot of tomato on it, which I didn't think I'd be a huge fan of and thought it would overpower the other flavors. But it was perfect. 5/5I picked the - penne vodka, which we all know I'm ordering anything with the word vodka in it. I loved the sauce and the noodles were cooked perfectly. 5/5 And my dad picked the-Tortellini alla Romana 5/5 the sauce was perfectly creamy I thought their sauces tasted great and homemadeThey also have a great dinner menu and offer great sounding cocktails. (I'm also impressed by how big their menu is) all their tables were extremely clean, there was only a few people dining in because of the snow storm but there was a lot of traffic coming in and out for take out Other helpful things - it offers vegan and vegetarian options And gotta love a woman owned business. Also, their lunch hours are 11-2:30 and then dinner starts at 5 pm"
"Iron Bridge has been serving fine dining and pair the experience with amazing wine selections for over 20 years. They are conveniently located in Columbia Maryland.Dining has become too fast paced, with the focus being on turning tables. Iron Bridge is different. They have always provided a dining experience. The menu is always changing and highlights local sources. This is a great place to celebrate a special occasion or just grab a quick nibble and wine at the bar. Don't forget to finish your meal with the Crème brûlée or the bread puddling!"
"Wonderful to have a great Italian restaurant in the neighborhood. Food is plentiful, delicious and the music is fun and not too loud."

For anyone who values fresh, thoughtfully prepared food and is looking for a dining experience that is both delicious and inspiring, the County Cork is a must-visit! The wine list is thoughtfully curated and pairs incredibly well with all their dishes. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply treating yourself to a hearty meal and glass of (well deserved) wine, this is the place to indulge at with a touch of sophistication.

We were drawn in by the white table cloths and seeming elegance. Unfortunately, the food did not meet our expectations. The oysters were so heavily breaded I wasn't able to taste them. The "grits" were saucy and heavy with butter with 3 shrimp floating on topAs for the ambiance, it was incredibly noisy. The one saving grace was our wonderful waiter Alec who doubled as host.

A friend of mine from New York said he came here and had the best pizza that reminded him of pizza back home. I was told to try the Grandma pizza which consists of mozzarella, provolone, basil, fresh garlic, and their housemade pizza sauce. I added pepperoni because I likes the meats. I went home and enjoyed it so much that I went back the next day this time ordering both their Grandma and their Meat Lover. The meat lover consisted of mozzarella, pepperoni, sausage, ham, bacon, and their housemade pizza sauce. I preferred the Meat lover but both were definitely delicious. I also got some of their cookies brought in from a bakery in New York along with a Canoli. I must agree with the assessment that the pizza here is delicious.

My first time at The Prime Rib! This place is a Baltimore institution known for its topnotch service, classy interior, and incredible seafood and steak. We got so much food on this particular evening as it was an early Christmas celebration for us. Here's what we ordered...- The potato skins: A must order! They are famous for a reason. Incredibly crispy and come with sour cream and horseradish on the side. - The house salad: Also a classic item. I wasn't a huge fan of the egg chopped throughout the salad but the flavor was cut well with the pepperoncini. - The clams casino: It more bacon than it is clams but still yummy. - The shrimp cocktail: Giaaaant shrimp! SO worth the price. - The New York Strip au poivre: A yummy piece of steak coated in coarse black pepper. - Side of mashed potatoes and creamed spinach: I'm normally not a fan of creamed spinach but when it was combined with the steak and mashed potatoes it was incredible. - The strawberry cheesecake: soooooo freakin' amazing. Definitely more cheese than cake. I also want to note that the dirty martini is one of the best I've ever had. It was made a little less dirty than I'm used to with the stuffed olives on the side because they fill the glass to the brim to the point where there's no room for a garnish. Once I sipped it a bit and threw the olives in, the martini transformed into an extra extra dirty martini that was just what I wanted. Bravo to the bartender for knowing exactly how to make this fickle drink and not overcompensating with the salt!Don't forget to try their famous piney too! It's a delicious pineapple vodka concoction that is so good it's dangerous.

"I've been eyeing this place ever since I read about it being one of the best steakhouses on east coast on reddit. Seeing as how I lived just over an hour away I was happy to test out the hypothesis, and it didnt disappoint. I made reservations and found street parking. I was a smidge late, but fortunately they didnt give my table away. Once seated, I noticed the decor and ambiance was a bit aged, though still nice. I ordered an old fashion while my friend had red wine. We both ordered new york strip steaks and had salads to start. I went with a house while my friend had a greek salad, and tbh I wish I ordered the greek salad. the salad comes with potatoes under the lettuce and is topped with a bright tasting greek dressing consisting of lemon, garlic, and herbs. Coupled with the feta it reminded of my growing up in NYC and stopping in all of the rich tasting greek diners on the island. This stole the night for me, I'd go back just for this greek salad. The steakhouse's menu describes the restaurant as being the first to offer prime steaks. Upon further research I found that prime steak is the highest grade a meat could obtain. The meat tends to be juicer, packed with flavor and great has marbling. Lastly, the meat is cooked in a broiler at 1800 degrees. What surprised me the most was how well the steak was cooked, I ordered mine to be medium rare and typically in a restaurant medium rare means the middle of the steak is medium rare and the outside is more medium. However here the outside was medium rare and the center, inside of the steak was more on the rare side. What was disappointing was that the restaurant only tops their steaks with butter. Maybe I've grown accustomed to salt and pepper and while the steak was good, it felt like it was missing something. We also ordered a baked potato and mushrooms. The baked potato can be topped with butter, sour cream but not chives which is unfortunate but I managed. Both portions were enough to satisfy us both. The service was great, there are no complaints there. The waitress offered their opinion when asked, and guided us to the house favorites. She was quick to refill the water, and was prompt in returning often."
"Always imaginative and creative food here. Get the crab deviled eggs! Check out the subtle flavor of the homemade bread!"

"Our first time at the new Benny's and it was great. Good food, nice ambiance, and helpful wait staff. A nice 70th birthday dinner. We will definitely return."
"Nestled in the Cross Keys shopping center, sits the fairly new Italian restaurant and market, ZaVinos. A quaint restaurant where you can pop in for a quick bite to eat, grab some carry out, pick out a delicious bottle of wine, or shop for those rare Italian items you can't find in your local grocer.The smell of wood-fire pizza wafts in the air as you walk inside ZaVinos, which you can see the pizzas being made in front of you in their open kitchen. You can parous around the market and gawk over all that the market has to offer and think about what you can make at home with the specialty items, while waiting for your Italian fare to be prepared. And the staff are all helpful, with an associate to assist you in picking out the perfect bottle of wine as well. I opted for the Pesto Pizza, which was quite tasty. A decently sized pizza for one person or enough to share with another person if you choose. A bright pesto on top of a red sauce with chicken and sprinkled with a crispy breadcrumb topping, yum! I popped a squat at their counter to enjoy my dinner. They also have outside seating for the warmer months to enjoy your food. ZaVino's offers a variety of pizzas, pasta, sandwiches, and salads. They also have a section where you can purchase some of their prepared food items to take home and reheat.With so many items on ZaVino's menu that interest me, I'm looking forward to my next visit."
"Absolute best African Restaurant in the DMV!I've ordered everything on the menu (Thanks to the lockdown ), and I can testify they're all legit tasty!The Peppersoup is Spicy and Flavorful, loved the rice stew (Ayamase), and the Meatpie tastes so Authentic!I recommend this restaurant to anyone skeptical of African restaurants (I was ), and I guarantee you'll love their food. The owners are also very professional and courteous to customers.Highly Recommended !!!"
"We just love this restaurant! The food is consistently delicious and the service is professional,accommodating, and the people are really special. Our regular party of 6 has had many things in the menu and we have never been disappointed. Never! Even the kids chicken tenders and fries are yummy. The restaurant has a great vibe; casual and relaxed yet you know you're in a fine dining establishment. You can tell everyone at Amalfi works hard to present delicious food in a truly lovey environment. Don't miss it."
"Had a wonderful late lunch here between the Christmas and New Year holidays. Our server was attentive and made great suggestions along the way. I had the peach ice tea, garlic edamame and the cilantro shrimp sandwich. All very delicious. My guy opted for the ahi tuna and the house burger topped with an egg and accompanied by broccolini and loved all of it. The decor is modern and posh. There are glass enclosed private dining rooms and a spacious bar area too. We'll definitely be returning."
"We were passing through Baltimore and looking for crab cakes. The first two place we called were full so we settled on this little hole-in-the-wall joint. And I'm glad we did. They have limited private parking at a nearby lot. ASK ABOUT IT. We didn't know and circled for 10 minutes trying to find a spot. The place has limited street frontage and you'll miss it, if you're not careful. Brooke was the waitress, bartender and other things, as the owner was out of town for the holiday weekend. I had a smoked crab cake and a regular one. This is one of their most popular dishes. The smoke on the cake was just right, not overpowering at all. This was paired with a Brussels sprouts salad and fresh home fries. My son had the scallops, which were perfectly cooked. Didn't try desert but the two the couple next to us had looked awesome and, by their reactions, tasted that way, too. If you're in the Baltimore area, definitely make a reservation at this place."
"This is such a quality cocktail bar that keeps me coming back! I've been here a few times and every time I have the same great experience. The bartenders are kind and attentive and the drinks are strong and delicious. The bar is small but they spin records all night so the vibes are immaculate. This time I got the Cactus Cooler, the most refreshing tequila drink I've ever had, and the Guava Margarita, which was a perfect mix of guava and a Margarita and not too sweet at all. You'll pay $16 per cocktail but I have yet to have a bad cocktail here. My other go-to drink there is their lychee cocktail and if you want to try something very different, go for the umami."
"Well done!Gambian eatery in the Takoma Park & Silver Spring area. (Down the street from WAU) Went on the weekend, evening hours, not too busy. Spacious seating, good for groups / individuals / couples. Parking is available in front of the restaurant (street parking) or the side of the building. Beautiful decor inside. We were seated promptly, our order taken shortly after. The food arrived piping hot. Filling portions and I took my leftovers to-go. Not too pricey, in comparison to similar area restaurants.Check it out."
"I have a weakness for Crab Cakes, sometimes I order them as an appetizer (for sharing) or as an entree. If they are on the menu, 99.9% of the time, I will order them. Maryland is known for their fresh and tasty Crab Cakes, I was not going to miss out. The Blue Dolphin exceeded my expectations. Our group ordered a variety of dishes, from seafood to chicken and ribs. The portions were huge, the service was quick and our Server, Jennifer, was the best! Even though it was a busy Friday night, she was very attentive and so friendly. The Crabs Cakes come as a platter with two side dishes, I chose sautéed potatoes and spinach with Remoulade sauce. Most places offer tartar or cocktail sauce. If they have remoulade, you know you're having the real deal!! The Crab cake was a solid mound of Crab meat, not a lot of bread crumbs or filler. I tried my best to finish, I even took a break and still could not finish this delicious meal. One Crab cake at this fine establishment was bigger than other restaurants that serve two the size of a hamburger pattie. It may be a couple of years before I travel to Maryland, but when arrive at Blue Dolphin again, I won't forget to tell 'em Rosemary sent me!!!"
"The Vine on Main is one of the main stars in the city of Sykesville. Every year The Vine on Main hires my parents friends to play and my parents and our friends all come out for a fun party. This year they're having a "Mask-querade" concert, of course with enforced social distancing, outside, and limited seating. I am so excited! Each year they play we all stock up on a case or few of wine because the selection here is great! Come on out and check out this gem!"
"I mean wow! Let me start off by saying I arrived with high expectations and this place blew them right out of Baltimore- if you order the prosciutto with melon don't panic the melon is there. For some reason the white wine glasses are smaller than the red ones and when asked why??- no answer. but the wine was still good. The salt and peppa pasta had too much salt and peppa!! No bread basket which is an automatic sad face. But vibes were good the little moped was cute great taste of decor"
"So authentic. True Jamaican taste. Great service and pleasant atmosphere. Love going back again and again"
"I've been to Grant Cru a few times for happy hour and always had a great experience. I think I've had the house red wine each time - tasty, reliable, and decently priced.Friends have raved about the cocktails and we've had great times enjoying the chance to sit in the booth areas and catch up. I'm a fan, and I'll be back!"
"A big beautiful bar and lovingly curated wine program. Traditional Italian fine dining right-sized in the sort of portions more of us should eat (and priced like it was 2019). There's a happy hour (cocktails are the standout) and a wine night (ask the Som for a recommendation).I've been going out in Harbor East ever since there was anything to go out to here and somehow never stopped at Cinghiale despite walking by it many a time. Too fancy, Italian isn't my first choice of cuisine, other excuses. That was my loss- I really like it.The main portions are a little smaller than many of us might expect for Italian, but about right for comfortable eating while drinking or date nights. I'm not a huge fan of the happy hour food options but they're a good introduction to how the kitchen here cooks.The bar is super spacious, perfectly comfortable for a full meal for those of us who trend casual or dine solo.After 3 visits, I'm sold on this place. Owners Foreman Wolf have done good by Baltimore- I still miss my old favorite Pazo, my favorite ever of their concepts. Don't miss this if you're a fan of classic Italian or wine, or the combination."
"First time coming and really enjoyed it! We got the Adjaruli (bread filled with cheese and topped with an egg yolk you mix in) , khinkali (dumplings. We did potato next time we want to try the meat one), sacivi (chicken cooked in walnut sauce), and honey cake. Delicious. The initial service was a little slow but once we put our order in the food came out pretty quickly. The restaurant itself was nice and clean."
"My experience at Vin 909 was okay. It was super busy and our wait was almost 50 minutes long. Ordered the margarita pizza, brussel sprouts, and speck-wrapped shrimp. Brussel sprouts came out first and were over-charred and burnt. It was still delicious, but I wish it wasn't so overcooked. The speck-wrapped shrimp was too salty and the cheese was overpowering. Could not taste too much of the shrimp at all. The margarita pizza was solid and the only real saving grace of the meal. Service was meh. I think our waitress was too busy/forgot about us for the check and refill for water. My mouth was so dry from the saltiness of the shrimp dish. Not sure what the hype is about Vin 909, but it was just an ok experience for me."
"We love Ricci!! The best pasta dishes around, and the brunch is excellent, too! We almost always order the calamari and the chicken parmesan. The lox platter is my favorite brunch item - highly recommend! The bread and oil they provide at the start of service is so incredible. I love the outdoor patio on a warm day. Dining indoors is great, too, because they have a bar area, classic dining tables, and a high top counter facing the pizza oven. We will continue to come here!"
"Food: we tried the pate (generous portion), sourdough bread with butter (delicious, wish the pate came with more bread instead of crackers), meatballs (delicious), lemon cake (unfortunately not my fave; the sauce was delicious but cake itself like a mushy, flavorless sponge) and chocolate mousse (not chocolate-y enough for my taste and the whipped cream on top was not sweet at all but in a strange way). Wine: everything we tried was delicious and unique. Service: attentive, friendly, our waiter recommended food and wines and let us sample multiple wines before committing to our choices.Ambiance: upstairs is cute and cozy, we sat downstairs which you get to through a labyrinth of hallways. Still cute, but not as cute as upstairs.Reservations: made reservations for 6 pm, with online reservations looking sparse, but when we got there it was still mostly empty. Could have definitely walked in with a party of 2."
"Great place. Wonderful food and friendly service. This place is small and intimate...so book a reservation if you want a table."
