Everything here is good! Pro Tip: book a reservation if you're going on a Friday or weekend; it gets packed in there

Probably one of the most well-known seafood spots in Baltimore, and for good reason. Food is amazing and you'll frequently catch Ravens players here for a bite to eat
Jimmy's Famous Seafood

An absolute CLASSIC! Has my favorite crabcakes in all of MD! Ribs fall off the bone. And I'm pretty sure they invented the crab pretzel. A MUST VISIT if you come to MD
Silver Spring Mining Company

Went here for DC Restaurant Week and was VERY pleasantly surprised. Even my mom (who's a picky eater) was pleased with her meal. We'll definitely be back!

Yall can have that Popeyes chicken sandwich. THIS is the best chicken sandwich I've ever had (sorrows to Chick Fil A). Plus their desserts are DELICIOUS and come in actual glass jars, which is amazing. Can't wait for their Hunt Valley location to ope...

BMore Licks is a Baltimore STAPLE! The milkshakes are thick and flavor packed, and the Canton location is set perfectly across from Patterson Park, which is one of many community hubs in Baltimore. Plus they have 100 flavors of ice cream!

You quite literally can't talk about sweets in Baltimore without bringing up The Charmery. The Old Bay Caramel ice cream is a must try!
