- TTheresaBaltimore / Maryland •2 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoFrom start to finish, our dinner at Tagliata was exceptional. We began with the charcuterie board, letting our server surprise us with the meat selection, and they did not disappoint. The prosciutto was especially good—not too salty or fatty/stringy—while the darker cured meat was equally delicious. The Fontina and Pecorino paired beautifully with everything. For our second course, my boyfriend had the Caesar salad, which featured fresh anchovies in the dressing, adding a great depth of flavor. I had the Brussels sprout salad, which was fresh, well-balanced, and a great choice before the main course. For entrées, I ordered the Australian Wagyu steak special with bone marrow sauce. It was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and complemented by roasted veggies and mashed potatoes. My boyfriend had the rigatoni alla vodka, which he said was seasoned perfectly. To top it all off, we shared the tiramisu, and it was hands-down the best I’ve ever had—light, creamy, and full of rich espresso flavor. I didn’t get their names, but the service was attentive and knowledgeable, and the ambiance made for a perfect dining experience. Highly recommendMore infoTagliata RestaurantPrice: Expensive• Italian• Harbor East•4.8
- MMichelleBaltimore / Maryland •1 review5.0Dined on Feb 18, 2025I had the pleasure of dining at Maximon in Harbor East to celebrate a special occasion, and our waitress, Taylor, made the night absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we sat down, she provided exceptional service—warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. She went above and beyond by surprising us with complimentary glasses of champagne and a beautifully handwritten card, which made our celebration even more special. Beyond the outstanding service, the food was absolutely incredible. Every dish was bursting with flavor, and the ambiance was perfect for the occasion. Taylor attention to detail and personal touch made this one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. If you’re looking for a restaurant that offers not just amazing food but also top-tier hospitality, Maximon is the place to go. Thank you, Taylor, for making our night so memorable!More infoMaximónPrice: Moderate• Latin American• Inner Harbor•4.7

As a major city, Baltimore has a great selection of restaurants that range from casual to top-shelf fine dining. While restaurants vary from American bistros to international eateries, what Baltimore is really known for is crab.
