 A premier wine bar |
1026 South Charles Street Baltimore, MD 21230 United States +1 410 752 3810 http://www.corksrestaurant.com/ |
Set in the historic Federal Hill neighborhood, in a rowhome dating to the mid-1800s, this lovely establishment, with its exposed brick interior walls and candle-lit intimacy, is not only one of Baltimore's premier wine bars, but also a first-class restaurant. The wine list features more than 200 excellent selections, primarily from small American vintners, and the entrees are hearty, flavorful and created specifically to accompany certain wines. The Muscovy Duck Breast with Wild Rice and Wild Cherry Demi-Glace, for instance, is paired with a Cedar Brook Winery "California" Pinot Noir. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Tasty Mexican fare |
38 East Cross Street Baltimore, MD 21230-4036 United States +1 410 752 2837 |
Tucked away on a narrow street, this bar/cafe offers a range of Southwestern standards. Start with the Mexi-Wings, Jumbo Chicken Wings drenched with habanero sauce. Then, to cool things off a bit, have a taco salad with fresh lettuce topped with jack and cheddar cheeses, onions and tomatoes, then garnished with sour cream and guacomole. For the main course, try a house specialty. The Pollo Enrollado, a boneless chicken breast stuffed with pecan-cilantro-chile pesto and topped with a sweet cream sauce, is simply divine.

Good food, casual atmosphere |
1032 Riverside Avenue Corner of Cross Street Baltimore, MD 21230 United States +1 410 539 1999 http://www.portersfederalhill.com |
In addition to traditional pub grub; burgers, buffalo wings and turkey sandwiches, this corner tavern offers a small selection of fresh salads and seafood, including middle neck clams, mussels and shrimp. A mirrored wall divides the bar from the dining room, which is decorated with dark paneling and photographs of Baltimore's rowhomes. During the day, this is a family-friendly restaurant, with a children's menu and crayons for the kids. At night, it attracts a lot of young professionals with an extensive selection of draft beers and wine. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Terrific, eclectic, casual fare |
1002 Light Street Baltimore, MD 21230 United States +1 410 539 7344 |
Set in a lovely redbrick rowhouse, this south Baltimore favorite is a great place to grab a beer and a bite. The dark wood interior is comfortable and inviting, whether you choose to sit at the long bar or in the dining room. (There're also café tables outside.) The restaurant offers a full, and very eclectic, menu, but appetizers and bar fare are what the kitchen does best. The satay is delicious, the crab cakes are first rate, and the Jambalaya is chock-full of shrimp, fish and other delights. Review © 2007, Wcities |
