Birroteca

Great hideout off falls road . Loved the interior, friendly staff (thanks, Jerry!), and diverse selection of beers . Ask for the olive oil w hot peppers flakes . Drizzle it on your pizza and enjoy!

Have fun drawing on the tables, drinking from a great selection of craft beer (Evo heavy list) & enjoying duck duck goose pizza . Also, their gluten-free crust goes well with any of their pizzas .

The Margherita pizza was good, but not the best in Bmore. Had the meatballs with ricotta as an app & they were delish. The hard cider is a must & Moscato was also great!

In our review: There's more than just great pizza (try the one with duck confit ) here. The calamari starter is a must, and try the salad of arugula and shaved fennel . Read more: http://bsun.md/WOrkBa

Great restaurant ! I ordered the gnocchi polenta but I don't eat duck so they substituted it for wild boar - AMAZING! Please order this! Even the bartenders and waiters were salivating over it. Yum!

Baltimore's Best Bars 2013: "It can be tough finding a table at this Hampden pizza spot . The food is strong, and the bar backs it up with its emphasis on local draft beer ." http://bsun.md/Iso22d

Delicious food! Be prepared for everything to come out as it's ready, not necessarily all at once. Oh and get the kale salad (even if you don't like kale ) and the calamari !

The polenta was great. Got the papadelle with wild boar . Delish!! Finished the meal with the almond and fig torte with a scoop of olive oil and salted caramel ice cream . Perfect meal!

Pizza here is great. Brussel sprouts were a little overcooked ???? I loved it there, though it was crowded , still pretty cozy

Great rustic interior with friendly staff . I enjoy the spicy fennel sausage pizza . They always have a nice selection of craft beer as well !

One of the best meals I've had downtown. Crispy Brussels are a must. Order a few plates and be ready to share

The duck duck goose pizza is AMAZING.

Pizza was amazing try the spicy fennel sausage or the the one with the duck egg (I forgot the official name) as drink a delicious @unionbrewing beer while you are here!

Got the eggplant fries and duck duck goose pizza . The fries were a good call. I'm not loving their pizza crust .

If you like balsamic vinegar the Duck Duck Goose is amazing.

The food is consistently lovely and gourmet, but it's always noisy and it would be nice to be seated away from the bar for one.

Everything is fabulous here. The fried chick peas , crispy Brussel sprouts , salted caramel ice cream ...all delicious!!

price is somewhat expensive , but atmosphere cool & the place is overall a cool place to hang out.

We loved our dinner ! Polenta was light and fluffy! Highly recommend it! Pizza was delicious too!

New restaurant with great craft beers and delicious food. Try the polenta or the wild boar bolognese

Great beer selection , healthy wine pours and insanely good calamari .

Awesome fresh pasta and pizza options. And a great beer selection .

Brussel sprouts . You can get em without bacon if you like. Nom.

Great pizza and beer selection . Everything on the menu is great!

Happy hour : $5 red wine , white wine , and vodka of the day. $3 Evo drafts (except for Lot 6) til 7pm

Great food, beer and wine selection is excellent.

Best steak tartare in town .

Talk to the hostesses at the dining room entrance for a table. There are no hostesses at the lounge entrance.

This place is always crowded , so make a reservation . Gary the bartender is awesome!

Great local craft beer selection on draft .

Atmosphere and kick ass pizza/cheese plates/ local beer

Calamari was excellent, so we're the desserts .

Fantastic. No pizza tonight unfortunately but the Wild Boar Bolognese was great.

The calamari is the best. Must get.

The calamari is outstanding. Far better than anywhere else in town .

This place is a perfect example to how relatively good restaurant gets spoiled with attention and takes its place among the worst. If you want to eat frozen meatballs , bad pasta and tasteless pizza

They make the pasta fresh in the kitchen. Delicious.

Highly recommend: Duck Duck Goose pizza .

The shaved fennel and arugula salad is amazing.

Calimari , calimari , calimari . I only wish they served this app with a piece of bread ; wanted to sop up every drop. Mmmmm.

Food is excellent. Bar is kinda high or bar stools not high enough.

Super nice staff and great location.

Great steak tartare and charcuterie .

The prosciutto bruschetta is amazing!

Calamari and mussels are to die for!
