Caesar wrap and vodka pie pizza
Zayn D.

The Caesar wrap and pizza were great but def a place for drinking more than sit down. The music is loud and only bar top tables. Still good food but ambiance is for drinking!

Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla
Skyler P.

Grabbed a bite and watched the ravens game. Fun spot and it does get a bit crowded so helpful to show up early if you want a table. Quesadilla was pretty good, a little too much buffalo sauce so it got soggy halfway through eating it.

We usually come here before the Ravens' games, as it tends to be less crowded than Lin's/Mother's, but still has a great atmosphere. Midway through the season, I was hungry one game and ordered a chicken Caesar wrap. My life has not been the same since that day. The chicken Caesar wrap (grilled) is one of the best wraps/sandwiches I have ever had. The chicken is white meat tender, the croutons crunchy, the parm thick, the creamy Caesar dressing and the buffalo sauce are perfectly portioned, balancing out this beauty. I never thought I would be getting chicken Caesar salad wraps from a sports bar delivered to my house across town, but here we are.

Winter Cocktail (Part of their winter drinks menu)

I'm very new to the Baltimore food scene, only to hear it how it is filled with hidden gems from my more seasoned yelper friends. One such friend has been wanting to expose me to these spots; starting with Locals Only. (You know who you are!) We originally came to Baltimore for a Yelp event at the Checkerspot Brewery. This place is really cool! It reminded me of Lone Oak but much bigger and spacious! After the event, we came to Locals Only. The staff was really friendly and made sure both our drinks and food came out without delay. The place had a fun, funky vibe with clever wall decor, and the giant disco ball. We ordered the Cheesus Christ and the Burrata Be Kidding Me. No negative notes for both of these foods. First of all... you have to be crazy not have a pizza with burrata on it! It was fresh, creamy, and paired well with the tang of the sauce, and lets not forget the fresh basil too. The Cheesus Christ: combined the sweet and salty tastes together. I would have liked more spicy from the hot honey to balance out the sweetness, but I was satisfied nonetheless. I also liked the roasted hazelnuts topping as well! Suggestion for Management: With some of your meat pizzas, PLEASE consider trying the Beyond Meat products for the Cheese Gordita Kush or Vodka pie etc... Pretty sure it will just as enjoyable as the real thing!

Local Only continues to deliver with great food and drinks and a great game day environment for Ravens games! The people who work there are so nice and they always have a bumpin DJ. This place continues to be packed on weekends! Happy to see them thrive :)

Brussel sprouts

The food was amazing. The fried mac and cheese, mush pizza, brussel sprouts, smash burger and fries were to die for. I highly recommend visiting the next time you are in Federal Hill.

Great spot to catch a game, enjoy a fun turn up brunch or just vibe with the locals. Tasty eats and drink specials to choose from

My wife and I just had dinner here and it was great. I know places like this really cater to the later night crowd, but I'm old and like to eat dinner earlier. My wife and I just went in for dinner and drinks and had an excellent time. Most importantly, the pizza was good. Not the best I've ever had, but for the price and the location it blows the competition out of the water! Crisp crust, fresh ingredients, very very tasty. Will 100% be going back. Also, it is worth pointing out how friendly and welcoming the staff was. This time of night (super early) workers often have to deal with prep work, and I often feel ignored. Not so here. Even though we were obviously not out for a big-spending night on the town, my wife and I received excellent and friendly service. Definitely check them out when you are in the area.

Smashburger
Daisa J.

Best bar food in Fed Hill. The brussels sprouts are delicious and you would've never known to put them in the Caesar salad type. The espresso martini is in my top five. The staff is amazing. Be sure to ask for ally. The atmosphere is very welcoming and funky. Definitely a good time.

Second try at Home Pizza Kit

My friend ordered a pizza and it came out like lasagna. We asked for it to be remade and they cooked the same pizza and it came back even soupier. We then asked for a new pizza after an hour of waiting and they said they couldn't do that. I asked for a manager and they said there wasn't one on shift. Terrible experience and ruined my night

Basic Bitch
Morgan B.

I really enjoy the food at locals only. I've tried their pizza - the cheesus christ - 10/10 flavor! So delicious. I recently tried their brunch and it's my new favorite in the city. $20 mimosa buckets that come with a bottle of Prosecco and a carafe of orange juice - cannot beat that! $3 "chambongs" that you shouldn't pass up! I tried the chicken Caesar wrap with crispy chicken and fries; omg, so good. One of the best I've had! Service is always good with friendly bartenders. The bar has a fun vibe with lots of neon wall signs and art. It's very spacious too! One of my fav bars in fed.

Sign
Jake T.

Super cool place. For sure the younger crowd hangs out here but it's obvious why. Cheap drink specials and house music. The Dj they had wasn't great but overall the place was fun and the bartenders were friendly. I'd go back for a beer.

It was a little chilly in there and the lady at the desk when we walked in the door was keeping warm with her small heater. I asked where we could sit and she said anywhere. So we sat down in these large egg shaped seats which were really comfortable. Our waiter was really knowledgeable on the menu and suggested some great drinks. We did not try the food as it was past the restaurant hours being open and we had already eaten at a restaurant in the alleyway. I will be doing a review on that Italian restaurant soon because it was really good. I loved the whole speakeasy vibe and the music was amazing. One of the few places that stayed open to 2am...my birthday ended in an awesome surprise! When back in Baltimore will definitely stop in again maybe to try a bite with a drink.

Despite the horrible parking situation, I would come back again and again just for their egg custard martini. Service is friendly, we were helped immediately when we sat down at the bar. They also have a lot of fun season drinks as well, which I would love to try. The bartender was happy to help us, and even gave me a fun straw for my water when I asked! Loved their fall decor as well, such a cute spot.

Grabbed the Farmhouse Benni & Chicken & Waffles. My homegirl throughly enjoyed her benni with dippy egg and all and my C&W was ok. The chicken was dry and somewhat burnt (see pic). I was unsure if it was supposed to be two chicken thighs or one and a half since that's what I received. The calabrian chilli hot honey was very tasting and saved the dish. I always ask for sauces on the side and glad I was able to control how much sweetness I needed for each bite. I was already in a crappy mood and didn't contest my food since it fit and just wanted to try and finish my carafe of mimosa before we needed to leave and watch the game at The Bank. They do have some fun upcoming happenings like a 4 course tequila paired dinner that I was intrigued to try but was sold out. It would be fun to come back and try a paired dinner.

Its…read moreusually hard to get a breakfast buffet wrong but unfortunately this buffet experience was lackluster. They offered a variety of items: deviled eggs, scrambled eggs, chicken and waffles, beef and chorizo quesadillas, sausage, home fries, and French toast. They advertised fruit salad on the menu but they didn't have it out on the day we went. For starters, the food was lukewarm. Everything could have tasted so much better if it was warm. Even when they would refill the pans, everything was still not warm enough. The restaurant was not packed but they were slow to refill for the parties that were there. When we tried to go back for a second plate, most of the items weren't replenished and the line was getting longer. It was so bad that one group asked to pay for their drinks and leave because they weren't able to get any food. My option of each item: Deviled eggs- yolk mixture was on the drier side and bland Scrambled eggs- they were ok. Just needed to be warm Chicken and waffles- it was giving "chicken tender on eggo waffle" chicken was better than the bland waffle. It also didn't help that the syrup they had was cold and thick. It made the waffle (and French toast) colder and hard to swallow. French toast- the first batch was (with the exception of being cold) perfectly cooked and dusted with cinnamon and powdered sugar. The refill batches were so burnt and hard to chew and they didn't bother putting powdered sugar on them. Again, the cold syrup didn't help. Beef and chorizo quesadillas- they may have been a crowd favorite because getting a second serving was hard because they kept going quickly and took a while to replenish. They just needed to be warmer and served with sour cream. Home fries- great with the peppers and onions. Just need to be warmer. Sausage- my least favorite thing because it didn't taste like Sausage. It was very dry. Sadly, the food was a epic fail. This may be a great place for cocktails because the bartender mixed our margaritas perfectly. They had a Build Your Own Margarita menu with many different flavor options. I opted for the watermelon margarita with a Tajin rim. Delicious! My friend had a pineapple mango margarita with sugar rim and he was impressed also. The drinks earned them an extra star because otherwise, I think the food and the slow refilling of the buffet earned it 2 stars.

Happy hour is from 4 to 7 pm. The food was unfortunately subpar. Some of the potatoes were hard,…read morethe battered shrimp still have the tail shell on so when you bit into it you were eating shell.

It came with chocolate dipping sauce, which was a fun addition. The food and drink were delightful, as were the staff.
