- OTOpenTable DinerBaltimore / Maryland •1 review4.0Dined 5 days agoOverall great time. Food came out timely and hot which is great. The music was a great selection and had me in the groove. Ambience is really cute. I wish the server had explained the cost of water because paying $20 for a 1L Fiji bottle was insane and the only thing that threw me off. I would’ve rather just ordered sodas. Low tables weren’t available for my small party- wish that was noted somewhere as I am pregnant and needed to sit comfortably. I will def come back again. Server was really sweet and amazing!More infoLost Society - DCPrice: Expensive• American• U Street Corridor•4.3
