Amazing brunch . Get the avocado toast , buffalo pickles and fried oyster omelet . Jalapeño Bloody Mary is delicious as well if you like a kick!

Lindsey Paolucci

The lamb porterhouse app is super succulent and delicious! For your entree, you MUST order the scallops - absolutely amazing! Top it all off with the heathbar bread pudding . Yum :)

Amanda Imm

Always amazing. I've tried at least ten things on the menu. Highly suggest house bubbles and we always get the Amish pretzels ! Great service and great food. A little noisy but that's my only complaint

Kevin T

Get the Amish soft pretzel (the cheese sauce is to die for) and the cream of crab soup with extra meat. Those 2 dishes are the star of the show here!

Samantha Rivera

It is mandated that you get the french toast dippers. Expertly fried but the true champion is the whipped maple cream cheese fondue , good God.

Morgan Morreale

Everyone needs to go to this restaurant . Great service, atmosphere, and food. Roasted cauliflower , crab cakes , and Heath bar bread pudding are some of my favorites

Kim B.

Awesome spot for brunch . Really tasty, unique dishes and classics too. Loved the shrimp & grits .

Rhea Curtis

The food is fabulous! I recommend the Tuna nicoise , it was very fresh, the shrimp and Grits was super flavorful as well and absolutely yummy! Definitely will be back!

BaltimoreGal

Everyone needs to try the Amish pretzels & beer cheese + the Buffalo pickles . Then get a burger or 10 tiny little dishes to share. L.

Ryan Macsherry

The food was great, cocktails delicious, awesome atmosphere, and friendly service . Highly recommend the scallops with tomato risotto and bacon hash . Can't wait to try brunch .

Jen B

Parking can be a hassle on 36th st. Luckily they have valet. Service was great from the valet guys, the hostess to the waiter . Food was fantastic. Will return to sample other items on the menu.

The Baltimore Sun

From our review: "Plump and juicy fried oysters " and "seared salt-and-pepper tuna " are well executed. For entrees, try the steak frites or wild salmon . Read more: http://bsun.md/SbLPjV

High end comfort food . Blackened tuna , pretzels , popcorn . Lobster fingers were good. Cocktails decent to boot

Erin Melody

The drink menu is amazing, the small plates & sides were perfect for a party of 3, the only "downside" (& it really wasn't) was the dessert choices--we opted for another appetizer & drinks instead!

Brooke Kuhn

Great place and great location! Free valet parking , which makes life easier too. Would definitely recommend the Amish soft pretzels and cheese for appetizer- addicting!

Elizabeth Rice

Amish pretzels are a great appetizer even for brunch . Love the donut holes they give you for bread service. Large mimosas ????

Alex Guambana

Yes, come here. Fried oysters , pork belly , bread , mussels , beets ... It's everything familiar, but with a twist (and totally worth it).

Ashley Harvey

Food is amazing. I had a hard time choosing what I wanted because there were so many options I wanted. Is a must go place!

Karol Martìnez

The food was so delicious! I had the tomato & crab gazpacho and the steak tacos . Both had amazing flavor! Look forward to going again soon!!

Amer Mallah

The mint sauce with the Chargrilled Lamb Rack was delicious along with the best presentation I've seen!

Jenni

Sliced duck breast , mussels (waitress brought us extra bread to keep dipping in the sauce, yum!), and the truffle fries

Andy Thomas

Tables by the front window are nice. Make sure to get a reservation if you go at night. Brunch , lunch , and dinner are all great.

Obi Okobi

Delicious drinks, food and service. Definitely make a reservation if you're planning for a weekend brunch or dinner .

Luke Cooper

Had the Sea Bass . Amazing. Bar service is awesome too. If drinking make sure Seung makes your drinks. Proficient and funny!

Michael Guss

The food is always good here. The onion rings are great.

Local Plunge

Interesting and adventurous takes on American classics. Head Chef Chad Gauss really delivers , especially killing it in the creative department. Full Review: http://localplunge.com/the-food-market/ Read more

Suzanne Vegan McQuaid

Wow, ZERO vegan brunch items?? Is that even a thing anymore? I know they offer one SINGLE vegan thing for dinner , but this is crazy.

Greg MacDonald

Comfort food you’ll love in a fun atmosphere with great service.

Hayley Plack

We arrived for an 815 reservation and had to wait until 845 to be seated.. However, the Amish pretzel app and the steak frites were amazing!! The cheesecake was disappointing

Sid C

A lively restaurant with great food and drinks - both small plates and entrees.

The avocado toast with smoked salmon is the best brunch choice EVER

Tom Lalley

Have never had a disappointing meal or less than stellar service here. Sit at the bar and meet new people!

Katie Hatfield

Absolutely must get the lobster fingers . The batter is light and crispy and the mustardy sauce is the perfect pairing.

Jeff Colosino

Get the S.O.S. (shrimp and grits with andouille and gravy ) and a good pint of draft to go with.

Nathan Dennies

Great for a special occasion . Love the brunch

Obi Okobi

Very, very good. Consider the Earl Collins as well as the double bison .

Juanita Heaggans

The crab soup is to die for... Make sure you get it

Amazing brunch . Bloody Mary was one if the best ever.

Jesse Morgan

A very well stocked bar and attentive staff . This will be a regular stop.

Don't get me wrong. The food is delicious but it can be one note. This place should be more than it is.

Kara J.

The Steak Frites is delicious! So is the fried lobster and lobster Mac & Cheese !

I love the Pat LaFrieda burger and the buffalo pickles
