I grabbed a seat and ordered a strawberry milkshake and some Old Bay/Maple chips. The service was absolutely outstanding. My server Chuck was extremely friendly, talkative, and helpful. He was able to give me great recommendations and made sure I was always attended to. I watched them make the milkshake, which included hand scooped ice cream, strawberries, and strawberry syrup, which was then blended to perfection. They have me the milkshake glass, then the container they mixed the milkshake in that had extra ice cream--I basically got two milkshakes in one! The chips came out and were warm, well seasoned, and there was a TON of them. I liked the sweet and spicy combo of the Old Bay and Maple. They also have an old school jukebox, which is completely free to use. I chose a song and it played for the entire shop, so cool! Between the amazing service, endless flavor combos, and the retro atmosphere, this place couldn't be better. Highly recommend!

We had a miscommunication during my order and when food came out, she quickly realized the problem. I want to give her praise because before we could even talk about who might have made the mistake, a corrected order was already sent to the kitchen. I'm almost certain I caused the mistake, but Martina resolved things swiftly. I don't usually do breakfast places twice but I would come back for the service and food.We ordered the following: Happy face pancake: 8/10 - she wished it was a little crispier but very good. Half and half: 9/10 - good and sweet Crab hash: 10/10 - phenomenal! I added Queso fresco Old fashioned: 8/10 good and strong! Mimi (manager I believe) checked on us often. Martina is the highlight.

On the plus side my family enjoyed the ribs and crab balls. On the negative side, the fish in my fish and chips was painfully thin and small. Normally you get a nice chunky piece of fish when you get fish and chips. Not only that, l've never had fish and chips where the skin was on the fish. I left most of the skin behind, but ate some of it because the portion was so small. I had to eat something. Please have the chef look up what fish and chips is supposed to look like. Despite being the only server, our wait person was outstanding - it wasn't their fault that they had to handle the entire dining room. . Also appreciated the carafe of water on the table - but why no ice -had to drink lukewarm water. Make sure to ask for prices upfront and verify-for a single crabcake entrée, we paid $63 when it's advertised online as 30. Let the buyer beware.. Wouldn't feel a need to return at this point, too many other better options.

I popped in to The Local with one of my friends for a much needed happy hour and we were both in consensus we had to come back to try some other menu items and specials. $7 for the house Sangria and a mule of the day, was a great start to the evening and quite tasty. We both dined on the burger and fries and enjoyed the dish. I would've like a bit of seasoning on the burger patties and maybe a cheddar or American cheese, but that's my personal preference. I asked for the black truffle aioli on the side and that was definitely the way to go to really be able to taste the black truffle. And might I say the aioli was delicious. Our waitress was great and very attentive. The Local offers different specials on various nights and even does live music on Friday nights. This is a great place on the Avenue to enjoy dishes made with ingredients from local businesses and enjoy a delicious meal.

It's a cute vibrant restaurant located right on the corner with outdoor patio seating and a full indoor dining area, bar, and second floor seating. We did make a reservation (which I would suggest) however if you get there early enough (between 10:00am - 10:30am) you should be able to get seated at a table or the bar. The staff there are very friendly and have great energy. The two hostess even offered us suggestions and their faves from the menu. Our server Jess was also very helpful and attentive during our time there. As far as food, we started off with a classic mimosa & paired it with the cinnamon bun which was delicious. Soft on the inside with a nice crust & the perfect creamy frosting with a hint of citrus. We were told they have a pastry chef in house so everything is made fresh (buns, biscuits, pastries). For our entrees we ordered the biscuits & gravy and "The Bunny's Benny." These were the perfect savory dishes! The sausage gravy was creamy, seasoned well, & had a hint of spice. The hollandaise sauce was sweet with a twang which paired well with the tomato jam and egg (I had mine scrambled). I ordered it with a side of the miso hot honey for chicken bites .. so good! Both dishes were large portions so if you wanted to share you could or plan to have some for leftovers. We also got to meet Ron, who's the general manager. Very nice man, attentive to his guest, and welcoming personality. Overall we had a great experience 10/10 and will definitely be back!

Brenda, you have a star here! We started off with an order of Fried Onion Rings. They were fried to perfection - were huge and were very tasty. Our friends ordered a Grilled Turkey Reuben on Rye Bread loaded with sliced turkey, sauerkraut, 1000 Island dressing, and melted Swiss cheese and a Mamie's Open Faced Hot Sandwich with a huge amount of fresh-baked Turkey Breast topped with gravy and another huge amount of mashed potatoes (check out the pictures). I enjoyed my favorite sandwich, which is Mamie's Favorite Triple Decker Shrimp Salad and Crab Cake Club with chips. My husband was taken aback with the size of his Country Fried Steak and mashed potatoes. Everyone had something to take home with them. The portions are more than generous. The one thing that Mamie's always does that makes them stand out from all the other restaurants is that they give you a free dessert. We were all so full, we took our to go. We took 2 rice puddings and 2 cinnamon cakes home to enjoy later. We had a great time a Mamie's!

My friend said I had to come here. We did. As soon as we stepped out of the Uber the adventure began. The building is so out dated but the entrance door held its charm. Neon lit Edgar portrait reading from a book his Annabel Lee. Complete with a bouquet of flowers. To the right more words of the writer surrounded with a few tables and chairs for those willing to chill in the cold. Inside was no different. Several crows, skulls everything you'd expect. And a well stocked bar. Many writings on the wall, articles, awards, etc all added to the vibe and theme. And of course dimly lit but you could still read the menu. We were guided to the back for our party of 5, in a corner away from everyone else. That made it easy for us to converse as we perused the menu exclaiming this and that of the dreadful names used and deathly ingredients mixed in. It definitely made it more appetizing. After working all day I was ready for a drink and settled on the To Isadore; gin, lavender syrup, lemon squeeze topped with segura cava. That hit the spot. Unfortunately, I had eaten quite a bit on this trip and forced myself to order the Chef Salad. Nothing more to say there. My wife, though, ordered the seafood lasagna. Never had that and it didn't sound like something I could get into. I was wrong. This is Baltimore. The seafood here is astounding. It was delicious and had to take a couple spoon fulls. My friend ordered the double beef patty burger. I was jealous until he offered me a bite. That was really good too, and juicy. If you're looking for an experience and are not too afraid you may want to visit Annabel's. I do recommend it and do insist coming after the sun has been well down.
