B&O American Brasserie
Neighborhood: Downtown/Inner Harbor Category: American (New)If you're a fan of good cocktails you should give this place a try just for the bar. It's simple and small, but the drinks are superb. They're mostly modern innovative twists on classic, even prohibition era, cocktails like the Manhattan, Sidecar, and Martinez. If you're craving some food try the flatbreads.

Can't say enough good things about this bar/restaurant. The owner is a great guy with a real passion for bringing traditional and delicious latin american food to Baltimore. Not just traditional food, which can be found at any number of places up and down Broadway, the food is prepared to the quality that foodies in Baltimore have come to expect.
On my last trip I was treated to a Cuban pork sandwich that did nothing less than blow my mind. Having made many a trip to Miami I'm no stranger to the pork sandwich, and in the world of food it ranks among my favorite staples. Cilantro's take on the sandwich though is, for lack of a better word, perfect. Stuffed with a mix of thin sliced deli ham and thick sliced smoked ham and topped with liberal amounts of cheese then pressed between a french roll just looking at it made my mouth water. It came with a side of fried plantain chips that rounded out the plate perfectly.
When the owner heard I was a big fan of Miami and cuban flavor he offered to make me a mojito. I of course agree and after several minutes of anxious waiting was treated to one of the best mojitos I've ever had the pleasure of drinking. The mint wasn't overpowering, but it was very present, an absolute treat.
The restaurant is new and trying to make a niche for itself. I highly recommend you support this wonderful establishment, it makes for a great alternative to the normal burger and beer joint that surrounds the rest of the Fells Point square.

Very good pizza in Mount Vernon. The menu is more diverse than the pizza only menu at Iggies, but the pizza is comparable. they also offer fantastic calzones, sandwiches, and Mediterranean fare of all kinds.
I most recently enjoyed the Manhattan pizza, a wonderful cheese pizza with no less than 5 kinds of gourmet cheeses and brushed with a garlic butter. It made my mouth very happy to say the least.
