A gem of a restaurant! |
3301 Boston Street Suite 102 Baltimore, MD 21224 United States +1 410 276 8900 http://www.cantonspearls.com/ |
Very contemporary cuisine matched by an equally chic decor is what Canton's Pearls is all about. The regular jazz performances are another added charm that draws patrons, locals and tourists to this fine-diner. You can drop in at this restaurant to enjoy daily lunches and dinners that seem more like intimate gatherings within the warm wood and granite interiors. Or then you can enjoy its weekly Champagne Jazz brunches held on Sundays. Canton's is the best place for the whole family - the food is great, the atmosphere relaxed, and the prices worthwhile!

Lively Irish pub |
2918 O'Donnell Street Baltimore, MD 21224 United States +1 410 522 4220 http://www.claddaghonline.com/ |
It is an unwritten rule that every Baltimore neighborhood must have at least one Irish pub, and this busy establishment fills Canton's quota in spades. It's not so much the meat-and-potatoes menu, or the pictures of Irish musicians adorning the walls that make this such a great pub. The spirit of the place is what makes it so special. Whether you're in the bar for a Guinness, or in the dining room feasting on Rack of Lamb, you'll be sure to smile. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Cozy pub offers great food |
2921 O'Donnell Street Baltimore, MD 21224 United States +1 410 342 0999 http://www.coburnstavern.com |
This tavern has a decidedly English-pub feel to it with its faux fireplace, wood tables and mirrored bar. The food extends beyond the traditional pub offerings to include breakfast and fresh salads, Wild Mushroom Strudel and Ethic Pizza, a hand-tossed dough topped with grilled onions, olives, spinach and feta cheese. House specialties include the Crab Pot Pie and a tasty Paella that combines shrimp, clams, chicken, chorizo, ham and saffrom rice with garlic, tomatoes, artichokes, onions and peas.

Affordable German fare |
611 South Fagley Street Baltimore, MD 21224 United States +1 410 563 7577 http://www.eichenkranz.com |
This small restaurant offers affordable German food in a casual setting. Visitors make themselves comfortable at wooden tables. Newspaper articles in handsome frames adorn the walls and chronicle the history of Baltimore from 1934 (the year the restaurant opened) to the present. For starters, try the Spinach Salad, then move on to a hardy entree, such as the German Grill Plate. It features a pork chop and bratwurst. If you're in the mood for something sweet, consider the apple strudel. It's a house specialty. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Inexpensive Italian fare |
2400 Boston Street, Suite 120 (American Can Co.) Baltimore, MD 21224 United States +1 410 522 7700 |
This waterfront restaurant is a family-friendly place with a casual atmosphere inside and a smattering of tables outdoors.

The selection of entrees include several pasta dishes served with the customary sauces, chunky tomato with meatballs, carbonara, alfredo, putanesca and napoletana as well as several chicken, veal and seafood dinners. Try the parmigiana or marsala. Pizza and calzones are also available, as are children's meals. Daily specials are offered. Beer and wine are available. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Mellow Southwestern-style eatery |
2318 Fleet Street Baltimore, MD 21224 United States +1 410 732 1961 http://www.geckosonline.com/ |
This small restaurant combines a casual atmosphere with excellent food. Here, the cacti centerpieces, the giant lizard over the bar and other Southwestern touches let you know you're in for a spicy experience. And the food doesn't disappoint. The Smoked Shrimp Quesadilla and the Grilled Tequilla Shrimp are both fantastic. And how can you not fall for a place where the kitchen makes its own tortilla chips. The restaurant also makes a mean coconut flan. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Jewel of a bistro |
2908 O'Donnell Street Baltimore, MD 21224 United States +1 410 276 2233 http://www.helensgarden.com/V2/ |
This tiny jewel of a bistro does many things very well. On one hand, it is a great coffee bar. On the other hand, it is a dandy wine bar, with a list that's affordable and eclectic. Then again, it is a vegetarian restaurant, boasting items like the La Luna (eggplant, greens and provolone wrapped in a pesto flatbread!). However, the seafood entrees are the best. Finally, the downstairs is a bustling café, and the upstairs a cozy, candle-lit, folk-art styled hide-away. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Quirky, inexpensive fare |
1222 Hull Street Baltimore, MD 21230 United States +1 410 727 7476 http://www.hullstreetblues.com/ |
This charming restaurant in South Baltimore's Locust Point began as a saloon in 1889. Today, it's an elegant cafe with an attached bar. The eclectic menu focuses on seafood - from Shrimp Scampi to Steamed Mussels - though other gourmet dishes are also offered. Try the savory Filet Mignon or Chicken Oreganato, a boneless breast of chicken prepared with fresh oregano, tomatoes, olive oil and white wine. The proprietors, Kathy and Dan Macatee, take special pride in their Sunday brunch - a smorgasbord packed with tasty treats. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Gourmet Greek dining |
4805 Eastern Avenue Baltimore, MD 21224-4434 United States +1 410 633 3750 http://www.ikarosrestaurant.com |
Baltimore is a patchwork of vibrant ethnic neighborhoods, and one of the most delightful ways they celebrate their different heritages is through their restaurants. Ikaros, located in East Baltimore's Greek enclave is one of the best of these. For years, this quietly elegant establishment, with its cool white walls and darkly polished furnishings, has been serving some of the most sumptuous meals in town. The seafood, wrapped in phyllo sheets, is both delicate and savory, and the Moussaka is simply the stuff of legend. Review © 2007, Wcities |

2522 Fait Avenue (at the corner of S. Rose Street) Baltimore, MD 21224-3721 United States +1 410 342 3100 http://www.lagerspub.com/ |
Many locals flock to this neighborhood favorite for the tasty pub grub, burgers, pizza and spicy chicken wings served with celery and sour cream. If you are a seafood lover looking for heartier fare, you will love the chef's version of Shrimp Scampi, which is served in a bread bowl.

Contemporary Italian cuisine |
834 South Luzerne Avenue Baltimore, MD 21224 United States +1 410 534 8999 |
There's a giant mural stretching across the façade of this Italian bar/restaurant, celebrating the splendor of food. The interior is equally appealing, with bold colors and antique furnishings. The owners of this Canton favorite saved plenty of creativity for the menu. They offer 16 different sauces, for instance, including an amazing Mussels Pomodoro sauce. And besides a full range of brick oven pizzas, they also offer challenging dishes like the Portabello Napoleon, a large mushroom stuffed with layers of crab meat, red peppers, fontina and artichoke hearts.

Lively Mexican bar and restaurant |
2907 O'Donnell Street Baltimore, MD 21224-4821 United States +1 410 675 0898 |
Canton, located just a few minutes to the Northeast of downtown, is the most recent in a fairly long line of revitalized Baltimore neighborhoods. As such, it has become home to young professionals and urban hipsters. One of the favorite hangouts of this energetic crowd is this small, friendly Mexican restaurant that offers enormous portions of good food at modest prices. The Portabello Mushroom and Spinach Quesadilla is terrific, National Bohemian beer is only USD1 a bottle, and at least a dozen portraits of Elvis grace the walls. Review © 2007, Wcities |
