This is a cute cafe with a good variety of food! I got the brisket melt and my sister got the city classic burger. Both were really good and our food came out quickly. The waitstaff was constantly checking on us to make sure we had drinks and were comfortable. A great ambiance within the cafe as well.
We had a 1 pm reservation. Got there a couple minutes late & were seated immediately. Beautifully decorated, nice ambiance. The bartender was our waiter & did a great job. Food was delicious. I got the chicken medallions & my friends got the shrimp fettuccine. One of my new favorite restaurants in the Baltimore area.
Nice place, fancier menu items than I expected. I had the Kimchi breakfast wrap that was very tasty and well cooked. The side were diced potatoes that were fried to perfection. Overall a pretty good meal.
Great place - we were walking around the pier for a brunch place, and everywhere was super packed, all had minimum 45 minute wait time m, didn't help that it was the weekend of the Cubs-Orioles series. So we searched Google for some places around and this place pops up. My friend called to see how long the wait would be and they said zero. That sold us. We went there and seemed like a quiet area. Walked in and sat right down there was 5 of us. We had the best server ever, so good we went back the next day. They have white and red sangrias, both were equally good. For apps, I had the fried oysters as an app and chicken and biscuit as the main course. Both were so amazing. They looked to good to eat. I highly recommend this place. It's out of the way of all the tourists and seems like a great place to go at any time of the day.
City Cafe was highly recommended by my Airbnb host. Beautifully decorated, the server's helped each other out which made me feel welcome. The tall, good-looking Tim recommended this vegetarian dish. Sweet, wholesome with a tiny bit of spice. It came with Italian bread, olive oil and I requested to add Parmesan cheese. With my ginger beer and a 20% tip always under $25. The food and setting is worth a repeat visit next trip.
I can't rave about this place enough. The food is ALWAYS a hit for my husband and I. As usual, we got the Fried Green Tomatoes and since it was Valentine's weekend, they had a specialty menu which was full of great options. I order the Bronzini entree not pictured and devoured every bite. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the Filet Mignon Oscar which was one of the Valentine's specials. Not to mention we had the Apple Cobbler not pictured which was made to perfection. I dine at City Cafe often and I've NEVER been disappointed!
We literally drove to baltimore from new york city to have this brunch...delicious cheesy pepper jack cheese sauce melted on our breakfast burrito was one of the most amazing tastes ive had...the veggie patty was great as welll....!!! Usually hard to make a good tasting veggie patty but this was awesome! Would recommend!!
Such fabulous lunch service! Celebrated a belated Administrative Professional Day with my bosses so of course we had a reservation. Good thing we did because this place is popping at lunch time. We were promptly seated near the bigger bar in the back against thw windows, which was PERFECT. We got to people watch as they strolled the picturesque streets. The food was so delectable and so beautiful. I had the Lamb Burger with fresh cut fries and a tiny meditterrean salad of feta, grape tomatoes and cucumbers. It also came with Tzatziki sauce. The beautifully delicious thick tzatziki sauce! My bosses had Cream of Crab soup. They report it was just perfect with a very good amount of crab. One had a steak salad that even I thought looked appetizing and I abhor steak. The other had the Baltimore Club which has shrimp salad, crab cake and bacon! Yummy! The atmosphere was as good as the food. The music set a relaxing and inviting vibe with low speaking guests. You have to visit. It's worth the parking worries.
Enjoyed my salad, I had a Mediterranean salad the eggplants look freaked me out for a second... I loooooved the decor it is so cute. My server was doing both bartending and serving and she was amazing she was helpful and fun to engage with. I loved that they let me come back in to use the restroom after I had left. I have been stopped before and I cannot stand it especially if I have spent money in the establishment. Definitely would go back.
I came during a time when part of the power/ kitchen was down for a bit and the staff was very accommodating. We still had a delicious meal in a very nice atmosphere. I had the crab cake eggs benedict. So great! Definitely recommend.
