Food was delicious and service was awesome! Our server Brandy was amazing! We will be back forsure ❤️
Food was fast, hot, and delicious as always. Jermaine is an amazing server, he always goes above and beyond.
The playlist was EVERYTHING! (Classic R&B and Soul)
First off, we are doing outdoor dining so my rating for noise only applies to the sidewalk tables. This was a wonderful meal. Come hungry and ready to try their varied menu (save room from dessert!). Lobster fingers were a standout and the pork belly was a close second. If you need some cheese in your life, then be ready for the Big Ole Mozzarella sticks. While I'm normally a bread pudding purist, the Heath Bar bread pudding was worth stopping for alone! Can't wait to go back!
Nice ambience, friendly servers, tasty food! Having a reservation is a must, it's usually pretty busy for lunch AND dinner!
Took forever to be seated for our reservation. Server was sweet but her station seemed very spread out and she took ages to ever get to us.
Another wonderful brunch/lunch visit! The mozzarella, french toast dippers, burger & bread pudding were great. Outdoor seating. Looking forward to going back!
Have to give a 1 star overall because we didn’t get seated until 45 min after our reservation time. I completely understand that there is reduced capacity but that should be accounted for when it comes to number of reservations. Hostess never even came out to give us updates on approximate wait time. When I went in she said that tables were finished but people were just sitting around in conversation. How about a time cap on tables so that others aren’t waiting 45 min to be seated? Many places are doing this and it’s not offensive to diners when you tell them in advance. Food was great though
Lovely as always
Excellent food and overall good experience. Salmon, steak all perfectly cooked
Disappointing this time. In fact, somewhat embarrassing given the fact that I was entertaining business associates. Server greeted one of my guests as “my ball headed friend” in some attempt at humor. Talked much too loudly, using slang. I get it - an attempt to be funny - but it well missed its mark with my group. Much slower service this time. Crab soup, usually excellent, was lukewarm. After a 45 minute wait for entrees, I made a comment to server and he shrugged and said “it’s a pandemic”. Really?
Anyway, Food Market is too good to give up for one miss. I’ll chalk this one up to reopening pains. I’ll be back - maybe without business guests next time.
Food is amazing and the waiter is awesome! Very personable and quality dining experience
Had a great time at The Food Market. The food was amazing, the service was great and the ambiance and location was perfect as well. Our waiter was one of the best, very knowledgeable about the menu items and gave great suggestions (unfortunately I don’t remember his name). Tips before going: Definitely make that reservation! Or you may have to wait a long time.
Jermaine (our waiter) made the experience and the food was outstanding! We had the Mozz Sticks, Lazy French Toast, Crab Bennie, and Nick’s Double—all DELISH! We will definitely be back.
I literally love love The Food Market. They opened when I was producing news in Baltimore and I’ve been dining there since! The Buffalo pickles and the spaghetti and crab meatballs are two of my favorite menu items. I dine here at least 3 times a month. It’s my go to place to randomly drop in but It’s been more challenging with COVID because seating is limited and you really need a reservation to get in the door.
Fun restaurant to check out! Creative twist to classic dishes making the experience unique to the restaurant.
Great birthday dinner, good selection of music. Fast and great service! Kind staff
First time there, definitely going back, would recommend to several friends
The food is usually a hit. The service is usually really good.
Great service, amazing food. We will be going back!
Great time as always! We were the 2nd to last group there and the wait staff was so kind where they were not pushing us out the door. The food was amazing and great recommendations for food. Will be back!
I had an absolutely incredible experience here. Our server Jermaine was FANTASTIC! The short rib dinner and crab cakes were unbelievably delicious. Don’t forget to order a Hennessy Sidecar drink. Pricing was great too! Very cute location. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Although our reservation was made for outside, they had booked so tightly that they couldn’t accommodate us inside even though it was raining. An umbrella was graciously delivered to us but it got difficult as the rain increased. Guess it would have been a more positive experience if we had left dry. The food was amazing but expensive.
Great place to eat and have a good time. I will go back !
Great brunch! Loved every minute.
Consistently great food, drink, and service. Also nice casual environment with outdoor seating.
Loved my time at The Food Market. Food and cocktails were amazing. I loved the flavor of the shrimp and grits!!
Our group of four had brunch outside last Saturday, via reservation. We were seated right on time and had a great dining experience. Our server was kind, prompt and attentive. The food was very good and we had a wonderful time. The Food Market never disappoints!
Had an amazing first time at The Food Market! Made reservations for their Brunch and my oh my was the food DELICIOUS! Had the French toast starter and giant mozzarella sticks as well as the fried oyster omelette and crab benedict. All amazing choices and can’t wait to come back and try even more. Service is great and the ambiance was so lovely.
The Food Market has an interesting, highly appealing menu, and the food lives up to the advance billing. My partner had the Baltimore Club, a sandwich with crab and shrimp salad, and said it was the best bite he's had in years. I had General Nicholas' Cauliflower, their take on General Tso's sauce, but absolutely perfect amounts of sauce, rice, quinoa, peppers. The appetizers were great, the wine was good and inexpensive, and I would recommend this place to everyone!
Always good, one of the places we have on our rotation of restaurants we’ll regularly go to
Amazing food, great waitstaff, and an enjoyable Covid-friendly dining experience. What else could you ask for? We are obsessed with the mozzarella sticks!
Food was delicious. COVID protocols feel very safe with tables well-spaced apart and capacity still low. We sat outside which was nice. The soft pretzels with beer cheese are delicious!
As usual, a wonderful experience
And the food was excellent.
Food and Service was FANTASTIC. but Had to wait 35 minutes post reservation time to get seated.. Why did I make a reservation at 7 if I wasn't going to be even seated for an additonal 35-40 minutes?
Overall fantastic restaurant with incredible chef's and a very friendly staff!
Loved this place! Amazing food & service. Was really a treat for us
Delicious! Everything we ordered was wonderful,
Well the foods always amazing here but I was happy to know they are seriously implementing social distancing and sanitation practices. I felt safe dining here!
I usually really like it here but the food was unpleasantly salty today. The service and everything else was top notch as always.
