Empty restaurant
Timisha B.

We needed somewhere to eat before we attended a play. After the TikTok videos enticed my girls they chose this place. I'm very skeptical about soul food and tiktok suggestions. Mind you We drove an hour plus from Gaithersburg just to get in the restaurant and the young lady behind the bar said they weren't seating any guests because they had a party coming in at 6pm. We arrived at 510pm. After leaving we found a near by ethiopian restaurant which turned out to be great all around. After returning to our car and driving past the restaurant at 649pm it was still empty no party. We will not be returning. Hope you all have a better experience.

Catfish, greens,  mac & cheese, and two nonalcoholic drinks! Whew...AMAZING.

Went on a work trip to Baltimore for a conference The last October 2025, and afterwards my colleague and I wanted to eat some good soul food. We caught an Uber and went to Miss Carter's place and let me tell you it was like being at home. The inside is kind of small, but very cutely decorated definitely a vibe. Our waiter was really cool. He was also the bartender and the takeout person... But he handled it all well. Last but not least - the food!!!! We had a few different dishes and everything we had was amazing. So amazing. We ordered the same things to go!!!

Jumbo lump crab cake with mac n cheese and yams
Ash ..

My boyfriend and I drove from Alexandria, VA to try this place out because we love to try new foods! Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend Miss Carters Place to anyone I cared about. We placed our order via Doordash pickup at 7:20PM for a jumbo lump crab cake w/ potato salad & mac & cheese along with the honey jerk wings with the same sides. About 3 minutes later an employee called us informing us that they're out of pasta salad which we appreciated especially since they asked what we'd like to replace it with! We decided to replace them with yams and collard greens. Our pickup time was 8:07PM and we arrived around 7:42PM. My boyfriend went inside at 8PM to inform them he was there. I was told the space was extremely small with no hostess or check-out stand along with no one being at the front to great you. He had to go to the bar which was full to speak to the employee behind the counter. We got our food at 8:56PM. The mac n cheese was extremely cheesy... but that's about it. The collard greens came straight from the can and the yellow rice bed for the crab cake tasted like absolutely nothing. As a Maryland girl I love me some crab and the crab cake was mostly bland with very light to little seasoning. Additionally, it's priced and advertised and a "jumbo lump" crab cake but It was nothing jumbo about it. The star of the show is the honey jerk wings for SURE! They were nice and crunchy with lots of meat, the sweetness of the honey comes first with the aftertaste of the jerk seasoning following behind. Due to the long wait times, inattentive in person staff and mediocre food, I wouldn't return to this establishment.

Uuuuummmm this wasn't it for me and my family.. sodium overload on just about everything. Collard greens, chicken wings and the catfish just needed to turn down the salt. The Mac and cheese was lukewarm and just wasn't anywhere near grandma recipe. Was told that the yams were a hit. The service was average. While the server was nice and sweet she and only one other lady was working and they over very busy with to go orders. I won't discredit that she did come over multiple times to check on us.

Chicken wings, Mac and cheese and collard greens..

OMG! Didn't know what to expect at Miss Carter's Place. The family wanted to try a black -owned restaurant in Baltimore after grandson's basketball game. Miss Carter's Place was not our 1st choice as we had made a reservation at another resturant. However after several drive arounds trying to locate the restaurant and getting dropped calls on two different numbers, we changed gears. Ms.Carter's Place came up and we decided to go. The music was pumping when we entered. We were greeted by Amanda and immediately directed to a table. The space is small, quaint, yet inviting. We ordered appetizers and beverages. Absolutely no complaints thus far. But let me tell you about jerk chicken tacos...the Bomb.! Tender, just the right amount of heat and the crispy taco...delish! We ordered chicken wings with the Korean BBQ and Sweet Chili sauces. Let me tell you...I'm still licking my fingers typing this review. Now although I didn't have any of the lemonade beverages, the rest of the family said the drinks were very good and ordered seconds. We are now ready for our meals........I can't express how delicious the main dishes looked with their sides . I couldn't wait to dig into my smothered turkey wings, collards and candid yams. Yum delish! Gravy smooth as silk, yams sweet on the plate and the greens just as tender and seasoned nicely. Shucks! My mouth is still watering anticipating finishing my leftovers tomorrow. Every dish that came to the table looked and tasted amazing and there were no crumbs leftover cause we took our crumbs home to eat later. Compliments to the chef, our server Amanda and Miss Carter's Place. We will be returning!

First timer.. food was pretty decent. Wish I had a little more juice over my turkey wings. Yams were great and Mac was just ok for me, but def eatable. I would return and try other items from the menu. (DoorDash order)

Crab cake meal with 2 sides
Jenny T.

On the pricy side but this place is solid. Big portions, accurate and timely order. We picked this up to eat before our show at the Hippodrome. Crab cakes were good, not too much filler but also not that much lump. Yams were good but super sweet. Broccoli was good not too buttery or salty. Rice was okay, a bit dry. Crab cake and shrimp wrap was good but there weren't a lot of lettuce and tomatoes and it had a lot of sauce. Fries were a bit soggy but it had been sitting there waiting for us...I popped my leftovers in the air fryer and they were seasoned perfectly. If I'm in the area, would come back.

The food was great. The place itself is enjoyable to be in-- nice ambience. Very close to convention center (take a car). We came for the crab cakes and were not disappointed.

Honey Jerk Lamb Chops

Cute little spot .... Came on a Wednesday night. The crowd is young and the place is very small. People hanging out in front smoking. I can't say I felt safe. Maybe I was out of my element. I didn't order food but tasted my friends lamb chops and they were delicious. I absolutely would like to eat here. I'm not a fan of this automatic service charge of 18% being added to checks. The drinks were strong and I paid strong drink prices. The music was good as well. Not sure what the hours are but I may doordash some food.

the menu of the restaurant

Didn't even know this place was here but was with a friend who's been and liked it. He got their turkey wings. I got some lemon pepper wings to go. Sadly, I didn't care for them. Not the worst but not great. There was quite a wait for them too. The place is cute though. I loved the decor at the front. They have a decent menu. If I'm ever in this area again, I would try something from the menu.

Crab Cake, rice, mac & cheese, collards

After seeing the social media post I made the trip from the DMV to B'More to check it out for myself. Went on a Wednesday evening no problem getting a table as most patrons who came into the restaurant were picking up take out orders. Nice casual dining ambiance with more of a lounge/cigar bar sort of feel. With R&B music emanating from the speakers couldn't help but to feel as though this is definitely a cool vibe happy hour spot on Friday nights. Ordered the old bay flavored catfish nuggets/fries and jerk chicken tacos for appetizers. Let me tell y'all something... them nuggets came out crispy, hot and flavorful! The jerk tacos were bursting with flavor had me licking my fingers. We ordered the crab cake with sides of collards and mac & cheese. CRAB CAKE was on point!! Lump crab meat and seasoned magnificently. Sides were equally as tasty. Also ordered the lamb chop meal with sides of collards and candy yams. LAMP CHOPS....were FIRE!!! Tender to the bone, and seasoned to perfection. Yams had me reminiscing about Auntie's kitchen on Thanksgiving day. Enjoyed every bit of this experience. Can't wait to go back!

Original large cannolis - 4pcs. Coconut Napoleon - 1pc…read more Vanilla Napoleon - 1pc. Chocolate cream puffs - 3pcs. Arrived in the afternoon during a busy weekend and decided to take out for desserts. My first visit and was underwhelmed by the service received. Rushed and transactional. Packaging was very sloppy and my napoleons were shoved to the side, making the clear clamshells very messy when I arrived home. If only the desserts were saving grace, but was left disappointed as well. As others have mentioned, the pastries do not taste fresh. The ricotta cream in the original cannoli tasted warm and gritty, the shell was stale. I noticed these were sitting out. The puff pastry in the Napoleons were soggy. The cream puffs shell was stale and chocolate topping was super sweet, unfortunately these were far from heavenly. Maybe another day, Vaccaro.

I was excited to try this place out. The positive is that the service was very friendly. The staff…read morewent out of their way to treat us well and were so kind to our kids. The vibe inside was relaxing. We were here for a few hours enjoying our coffee, tea and desserts and it was a nice place to pass the time on a cold, freezing day. The thing that dropped the review was basically the coffee and desserts. The coffee was fine, but just your standard coffee that you'd find at any gas station. The cannoli was overly sweet and the cookies we ordered felt stale. Interestingly, they charge more for sit down desserts vs. takeout. The servers were very sweet to share that we could order takeout and not have to pay the extra fee. Finally, not sure why, but there was not a lot of heating inside the restaurant. We ate with our jackets on, which was fine. But found that to be a little odd. Nobody seemed to know why they couldn't get the heat on. When it's below freezing, it would be nice to escape the chill. Overall, it was a nice stop. My kids loved it. But it was not without some quirks.

The doughnuts at Diablo are good - the dough is fluffy and they have a ton of flavors but I like my…read moredoughnuts lighter and these are pretty dense. I also prefer stuffed doughnuts (like a good Boston cream, etc) but they don't have many options for those. Instead it seems they prefer to put a dollop of the cream in the hole on top. I tried the cookies and cream and the cream cheese in the middle was odd.. it had a stretchy consistency. I like their Cinnamon Toast Crunch one, that one is probably my favorite. They're good and I love the variety but I've had better doughnuts.

Went on…read morea Sunday morning and it was really busy - no indoor seating but there are 3-4 tables outside. There were only 2 people working, so there were a bunch of people waiting for their orders and service was slow. One person was at the cashier, the other was packing doughnuts, making breakfast sandwiches, and the coffees. We waited 5 minutes in line and then another 10-15 minutes for them to pack our 4 donuts. I wanted to get a sandwich but figured the wait was too long. On to the donuts - I liked the blueberry basil and blackberry lime donuts. The blueberry basil flavor wasn't super strong but it was well balanced. The blackberry lime was my favorite - sweet and a little tart. The crobar (croissant-donut) texture was awesome but I did not rally taste the cranberry or orange advertised. The buttercream frosting on top was sickeningly sweet so ended up scraping that off...finally the coffee donut. Not my favorite but not bad - it tasted like instant coffee and was kinda punchy coffee flavor, bitter. But I liked that the bitter offset the sweet. Overall, it's a fun place for a gourmet donut but be sure to not get here when it's too busy and to come early - they sell out of fun flavors fast!
