DH and I and our two year old are staying in the inner harbor overnight and would like to grab dinner at a place relatively nearby (walking or quick cab ride). Any recommendations? We'd like to avoid the big tourist traps and chains but also looking for a place that has high chairs (or won't bat an eyelash if we show up with DS). Locally owned is a plus.
Thank you! |
| You'd need to take a cab, but I love Woodberry Kitchen. It's maybe 4 miles outside the inner harbor area. Incredibly local, farm to table kind of place. |
| Phillips seafood. A chain. but good food. Not the buffet. |
Agreed, but note that Phillips is no longer at the Inner Harbor but at 601 East Pratt instead. The Black Olive in Fells Point is also excellent. |
| you could go to an Italian place in Little Italy |

There used to be a Mexican food restaurant along there. OK food, but great drinks and gorgeous views of the water if you can get a great table.
Also, we took all the fathers in our family out on one of those odyssey cruises for Father's Day. It was FUN! I had some trepredations but we had a ball. Gobs of buffet food. Lots of things to look at. Pictures taken of the family at the table and dancing. |
| Thanks for all your replies. I will check these out. -OP |

Pazo - but not sure on the high chair angle. Call and ask. Any of Cindy Wolf's restaurants would be fantastic.
You would want to cab to Pazo. |

Cinghiale is great
http://www.cgeno.com/ I had the best meal I've eaten in Baltimore at Charleston, definitely not cheap, but excellent. http://www.charlestonrestaurant.com/#!/food |
I missed the part about bringing the young one, when I made these rec. Can't speak to how child friendly they are. |
| The Helmand on Charles street...Lebanese food |
| From someone who grew up in the Baltimore area please don't go to Phillips. It's a huge tourist trap and I remember reading or hearing years ago that a lot of their seafood isn't even local. I'd suggest Liftle Italy. One of the more casual restaurants that would be good with a kid is Amicci's. Go to Vacarro's for dessert after. |

| Cafe Gia in Little Italy or Helmand |
