    Vodka Pasta with Shrimp and ravioli with shrimp
    Kristin G.

    I truly feel like I was taken advantage of. I paid $63 for two small portions of pasta that came with only four shrimp. There was no bread, no salad, and not even utensils included with the order. I'm very disappointed and will likely not return because of this. On the bright side, the pasta itself was decent, and the service upon pickup was fast and pleasant.

    Stumbled upon this wonderful authentic Italian restaurant. Had the Polpetta which was really good thanks to the ciabatta it came on. Side salad was fresh and delicious. Definitely will be back the next time I come to Baltimore.

    Amazing Italian food in Baltimore. The food is delicious and portions are hefty- you'll definitely take come leftovers. Our favorite was the gnocchi! The restaurant itself is nice and great for a date. Service is fast and friendly! Would recommend carpooling or ubering as parking can be tough in the area

    POLPETTE /MEATBALLS

    I ordered through DoorDash and when I received my order, it was still piping hot. I ordered the meatballs and lasagna. The meatballs could have used a little more salt overall so every-time I took a bite, I was slightly disappointed. The sauce could also use a touch of salt as well. The meatballs did however have great herb flavors and I think I tasted some kind of cheese. Although, I didn't notice it when I looked at it. I ended up dumping shredded cheese in the container which h gave me the saltiness it was missing. The lasagna did not look appealing but it did taste good. The types of cheeses they used really did their thing!! The lasagna was flavorful and very fulfilling. I was surprised it didn't have any meat on the inside, but It really doesn't matter. It's still so good! The sauce for the lasagna was good as well. I would absolutely order this again!!

    I'm only bummed that it took me so long to try Grano! We visited on a beautiful Tuesday evening and had the best time! Outdoor seating is limited but cozy (benches are stationary so folks with mobility issues may prefer to opt for indoor seating). The staff was very friendly. And the food.... delish! We had the blue cheese / pear salad to start, penne vodka, and the ravioli with tomato sauce. All fantastic!

    What a cute and cozy little Italian place! We've been walking past this place for a year and finally decided that we needed to just go. And I'm kicking myself for waiting for so long! The food here is unreal. It's absolutely delicious. The clam pasta was STUNNING the caprese salad was amazing. The wine. The limoncello. Everything. So good. Cozy. Quaint. With STELLAR Italian food. What more could you ask for?

    Came here for a birthday dinner with my best friend. It's a charming pasta spot that you can either take-out or dine-in at. We came because it is one of the more affordable pasta spots in town. We were a group of four and sat outside. It was a Friday evening around 7pm at we waited less than 10 minutes for a seat outside. The staff is extremely kind and welcoming here. We each ordered pastas to share. My bestie and her husband shared the carbonara. We all found it a bit too smokey for our liking. The burrata salad was nice and delicious like burrata always is. I shared the ravioli al formaggio with another friend and we really enjoyed the vodka sauce with it. To finish our meals we ordered the mini cannolis. We all enjoyed the filling. I wish I liked the pastry part a bit more. While none of us ordered this, I appreciated the gluten-free options they offered (like meatballs and a gluten-free pasta substitute). Overall we had a pretty good experience here and I'd be interested to return to try different things on the menu.

    We had walked past the takeout window that faces the main street plenty of times, but didn't quite grasp there was a full functioning restaurant with an entrance down the side street. We decided to try our luck for dinner on a Saturday night and walked in to be told there was maybe a 15 minute wait. We put our names down and honestly were called back within 5 minutes. Very no frills no fuss good eating food. We inhaled the stuffed zucchini app we got to share. For mains I got the clam pasta whereas my boyfriend decided to keep it simple with the spaghetti pomodoro. He enjoyed his meal very much but did lament the fact that there was no complementary bread basket, as he had a lot of leftover sauce which would have been wonderful to dip some bread in. I enjoyed my clam dish, very simply done but very tasty. Service was quick and the place is clearly very popular as there was a constant turnover of diners the whole hour or so we were there. I'd come through again but I would suggest they consider throwing in a complementary bread basket to diners. Would be a nice touch.

    - The ambiance of this place was cozy. However, i felt like the tables were very close together and seemed congested. You're practically elbow to elbow with strangers. - The food was great. We found it to be filling and tasty. - The staff was very welcoming and kind.

    I sat outside so I didn't get to see the interior, but the bench area was super cute and had an awning over which made it perfect once the sun set behind the buildings. Service was quick, even seated outdoors, and we had the lovely pleasure of speaking to the owner at the end. She came to ask how the food was, which is not something I'm used to anymore after living in a city for years so I was warmed by the thoughtfulness. I ordered a gnocchi vodka and aperol spritz and was not disappointed by either. The gnocchi were chewy and paired well with the sauce, while the aperol was light and refreshing. Perfect dinner spot, especially in warm weather!

    Love grano pasta bar! They used to be BYOB but now have a wine and beer menu. We were able to sit outside as a group of about 5-6 on a cold day; their tent is warm and doesn't feel like you're outside at all! Hard seating for large groups, much more appropriate for groups of 2-4, but they were very accommodating! I shared the Gorgonzola penne and the fusilli caprese (with gnocchi) which were both delicious! We got some bread with the bread basket and the bread was also great. The food was so warming on a cool December evening. This place feels so homey and their pasta is so delicious! The tiramisu is also so good! It's such a big slice and the perfect way to end your meal!

    Cheese RAVIOLI AL FORMAGGIO

    The place it's very nice and cozy, the workers are very polite and attentive. The prices of the plates range between $18-$26

    Carbonara and ragu di pomodoro (Neapolitan tomato sauce), both a super good!

Upon coming into Di Pasquale's I wasn't sure what to expect and my expectations were not high, but oh my gosh were they blown away. Quite literally everything I had was without note. I had the muffuletta, caponata and some Pignoli cookies and I truly cannot speak highly enough about each item. The sandwich was wonderful and well balanced, the Caponata was genuinely some of the best Caponata I've had in my entire life. As someone who makes Caponata on an almost weekly basis I was absolutely blown away at this one and would genuinely rank it top five I've ever had. The Pignoli cookies were good as well they were a bit harder than I like, but no real complaints. There's not much to speak to in terms of service here as it's an order at the counter and seat yourself kind of place but staff was friendly and then ambiance is again nothing too crazy but definitely a great lunch spot and so many fun items to purchase. Next time I'm in Baltimore, I will without a doubt be coming back here and would genuinely put this on a must hit list for anyone visiting the city.

I used to come here all the time when I lived there and somehow that pizza still lives completely rent-free in my brain.

Also the service there is lovely. Everyone is so nice and seems to enjoy working there. You don't feel rushed, you don't feel ignored it's perfect. And the pistachio pizza...
