I accompanied a few people here. Parking is very tight on the street but there is parking located in the rear. We arrived after 1pm and was able to get seates within 30 minutes with a number of parties waiting ahead of us. This was my first time eating here and the eatery in general. There is seating available in 3 different areas to include upstairs. The womans rest roomm was pretty clean for the volume of people dining in. After looking over the menu and mouth watering. I chose Ms. Shirley Bloody Mary, fried green tomatoes and Chicken w/pineapple upside down waffles. In the party others ordered buffalo shrimo deviled eggs, gumbo, shrimp tacos and a seafood type omelette. The fried green tomatoes were hard and not of good seasoning, the others enjoyed the buffalo shrimp deviled eggs. The gumbo was not enjoyed thus was sent back. My Ms. Shirley Bloody Mary was not as desired; taste of Old Bay seasoned tomato juice. Ths pineapple upside down waffles were fluffy but deceiving on the part of thinking it was going to be like the cake. It was like 3 little mini belgian waffles with pieces of pineapples tossed on top of the batter before cooking. But they were okay. The other party enjoyed the rest of the meals. I didnt snap the meal photos as we indulged quickly as we were hungry and I forgot. Our server was great and attentive. She was definitely on of the best servers Ive had. The menu was very inviting and appealing but the food did not match up to the mouthwatering description and pictures.

Blackened Salmon Benedict
Alise G.

This was my first time at this location, I am familiar with the Miss Shirley's brand. The food is always good, it was refreshing to see consistency at another location. I ordered the blackened salmon Benedict and the crabby omelette to share. There was a lot of fresh handpicked crab in the omelette, delicious. The salmon Benedict was good as well but I'll definitely be coming back for the crab omelette. The staff are really nice and there is also plenty of street parking available.

Haven't been here in a few years. Went for breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Staff was amazing as usual, atmosphere was great, and overall a wonderful meal. Will definitely be back in the near future

Chicken 'n Cheddar Green Onion Waffles

Stopped in for Baltimore Restaurant Week since it had been a few years since my last visit, and the food was just as good as I remembered! They were offering a 2-course meal for $25, so I went with Nana's Grapefruit Brûlée and the Chicken & Cheddar Green Onion Waffle. Both were just as delicious as I remembered from my last visit! The restaurant has plenty of seating, making it a great spot for family outings. Since the weather was nice, I sat outside and enjoyed the sunshine. The service was truly 10/10, every server who walked by checked in to see if I needed anything. If you haven't been yet, this place is definitely a Baltimore brunch staple!

Went during restaurant week last year, got the grapefruit brûlée, chicken and waffles, another time got the crab soup and skillet for around $30 pp. Loved the food and service was good as the waffles were undercooked the first time and they redid it.

Pineapple Upside Down pancakes
Andrea' C.

I had the best breakfast I've had in Baltimore and I can't believe I've been sleeping on this place! Miss Shirley's is top tier! The restaurant is large and there was a wait but it moved pretty quickly. I had the pineapple upside down pancakes and it was like something I have never tasted. I usually only eat plain pancakes but I am so happy I took the waitress' advice and tried these! 10 out of 10! Now let me tell you about the shrimp and grits.... When they came out I was immediately turned off by the presentation. But after taking my first bite I was hooked! It was the best combo! Shrimp, grits and fried green tomato! Chefs kiss! And it was so filling! I don't want shrimp and grits any other way now. I can't wait to go back and try some of the other dishes!

I haven't been to Miss Shirley's in some years & I'm soooo glad I stopped in. It wasn't crowded, which I assumed it would be - let's not get it twisted, the place is busy on the weekends. However, I was very fortunate - I was seated immediately. My server was very pleasant & helped me make my brunch decision. She made happy when she told me my choice, the Pineapple Upside Pancakes, were available in waffles too (that will be what I get next). Everything was good & my awesome server, Emily, made sure my glass never got to empty. Cant wait to go back & try the other Breakfast choices...

Key Lime Cheesecake Stuffed French Toast
Ray F.

If you are going for weekend brunch get there early! The hostess was very helpful and accommodating. Our waiter was detailed oriented and casually professional. I love the orange colors through the restaurant; very vibrant and high energy. The vibe was great from start to finish. They have a lot of uniques menu items and ingredient combinations. I ordered the garden omelette, key lime stuffed French toast, shredded potatoes , pimento cheese biscuits and the peach & goat cheese biscuits. After the first bite of the pimento cheese biscuits everything else did not stand a chance! Please check out Miss Shirley's if you want good food that you don't have to wait a long time to get your food after ordering.

So I've been to Miss Shirley's a few times over the years and this was the first time I think I was actually disappointed in my selections. The fried green tomatoes were disappointed, and this was supposed to be the highlight of my brunch. The cornmeal mixture was a little sweet, and tacky tasting. Meaning it gave a gummy consistency. I was not a fan of this after sending it back once because of its light coating. I wanted it a heavier covered. I think that they reread it was already sent out making the consistency a little off. The banana bread French toast was underwhelming understand that a lot of people have no allergies but as an aside nuts could've been added or at least offered It's an up charge if you want whipped cream. Very disappointed. A server was very nice. Management was very pleasant and attended to my needs and ambience is always clean and welcoming.

Best meal we had in our time around Baltimore! It was a cool surprise to see it was on an episode of DDD. The breakfast was BOMB (we visited twice in 4 days)! Staff was very attentive and friendly, asking our names and checking in regularly. Management also walked around for quality checks. Smiles all around made it feel like a real mom and pop shop. Fun atmosphere, great food, kind service. A+!

Created omelette

Ive been here several times in the last 6 years, but it has been a while. We came on a Sunday around 11am, and it was a packed house, but they were able to get us in right away. The food is still really good , and their menu is so expansive. Something for classic breakfast lovers, experimental breakfast lovers, health conscious friends, and folks with several dietary restrictions. Our service on this day was a little scattered on this day. Seemed like our server could use more training or was having an off day. The restaurant is very spacious and although it was busy, ran rather smoothly.

I wish I loved Miss Shirley's more. It's a Baltimore staple and some folks swear by it, but I'm always underwhelmed when I leave. However the vibes of the establishment do take it from a 3-star to a 4-star review for me. Food - the portions are generous but the quality is average. The pricing is also on the higher side. I think sticking to classics like pancakes and eggs will probably be the highest yield on the menu. Service - excellent, they are well staffed and very attentive. Food does come out to the table very quickly. Ambience - the location is so cute and right on Cold Spring Lane. There is a small parking lot in the back that you could get lucky and find a spot in but otherwise there is plentiful street parking. The decor makes you feel so nostalgic for Baltimore of old even if you haven't grown up here!

Get Your Grits On* ** ***
Tami F.

I've been here several times and always want to try something different cuz there are so many amazing things on the menu but I always get the shrimp & grits! There is a fried green tomato on bottom topped with grits & shrimp....amazing !! The fried green tomato is a little hard but when u eat it all together with grits & shrimp it's so good !! The coconut cream filled French toast is amazing as well! I tasted the chicken & waffles which was good but the waffle was a little weird it tasted sweet at first then the savory of the cheese & onions hits so to me I would just get plain waffles! Overall great atmosphere, service & food.

Great place that we found, so happy we were able to dine there more than once, if I'm ever in…read moreBaltimore again I will definitely go to this place

I've recently started working in the area and they are supper close thus I decided to try them out…read more I was very excited when I saw it was Korean owned however their K-food section is only two items; Bulgogi Dupbap & the Bulgogi Sub. The rest of the menu is American stuff. I've as of now tried both of these and very content with the taste and filling of these two, the price is reasonable per the portion and yummyness($12.49) plus tax about $13.25. The only thing I would change a bit is making sure that the juice from the bulgogi doesn't soak the bread too much cuz then it's mushy. I like a crunchy texture to my subs, but the may be just my preference. Both the son and the mom are super nice, if you become a regular it's very nice to have people know what you want right away. The atmosphere is very warm and friendly. I hope that they can incorporate more korean food to their menu, at least 2 more that have a different protein so we have a bit more variety. Though I understand why the options for kfood are limited given the area's population. Things to keep in mind: - When you order let them know if you want it to go or to eat there. Nobody can read minds, but they will do their best to ask you prior to packaging to confirm. - It can get busy so sometimes transaction may take longer because people are multitasking. - - - Don't rip out the receipt, you might be taking the wrong copy. Wait for the cashier to hand it to you or simply ask. -If you have questions about a product, ask them and don't assume. Yes. There is a big menu and pamphlets available and they provide brief item description but if that's not clear, just ask. They also have prepackaged salads, fruit and a few sweet treats, along with MissVickies chips, and bottle drinks. It's a cafe so the basics. Overall, really nice experience. Tots recommended :3

The best breakfast I have ever had…read more I don't even know where to start. But if you are ever in Baltimore, this is an absolute must. Anytime I within 2 hours of the area I will be making time to come back here The Sweet Baby Jesus. The crispiest hashbrowns I ever had loaded with jumbo lump crab meat, cheese and perfectly poached eggs. When I come back I'm getting the crab Benedict on top of those biscuits The biscuits and gravy. I h have never had a bustin or gravy so good in my life. I genuinely think the gravy almost ruined the biscuit for how perfect that was. It was cutting like butter with a spoon and I could eat a dozen of those without anything The Captain Crunch French Toast. This is what got Guy Fieri here back in 08. Idk how the entirety of this was so perfectly coated to get that crunch with a fully cooked and soft inside still. Unbelievable The Pina Colada French Toast. Coated and cooked in toasted coconuts shavings topped with white chocolate mousse caramelized, banana and pineapple. The was the one we were iffy on and I can't even imagine not getting this next time I go back The cinnamon roll. I don't even need to speak on this. Just look at it I simply cannot believe how astonishing this spot was in every aspect. I will be making it out here at least once a year guaranteed and then whenever I can find an excuse to This was truly proper perfection The inside is VERY limited in seating and gets packed fast. If you wanna sit down, Arrive accordingly and early. Inside decor was giving Edgar Allan Poe. Lots of cool art

My husband and I recently dined at Blue Moon Cafe in Fells Point, Baltimore, and were disappointed…read moreby our experience. The issue began when my husband politely asked a question about a menu item because it appeared to be spelled "browns" rather than "hash browns." He simply wanted clarification regarding what the item was. The server asked him for context, and he explained that he was referring to the item as it appeared on the menu. She then replied, "Oh, now I have context. That's a hash brown." My husband explained that because of the way it was written, he wasn't sure what it meant and was only asking a question before ordering. At that point, the server's tone became noticeably louder, and she responded, "Well, I only work here. I didn't write the menu." We found this response unnecessarily defensive and dismissive. At no point was my husband criticizing the server or correcting her. He was simply trying to understand a menu item. Shortly afterward, a different server began assisting our table, which gave us the impression that the original server was upset by the interaction. When my husband placed his order, he specifically requested that the restaurant's "animal sauce" be served on the side. The menu does not explain what animal sauce is, so he wanted to try it separately before putting it on his meal. When the food arrived, the dish was completely covered in the sauce rather than having it on the side as requested. Afterward, we learned that the sauce is a mixture of ketchup and mayonnaise. My husband does not eat mayonnaise and ketchup on eggs, which is exactly why he requested the sauce on the side. Unfortunately, because of the uncomfortable interaction earlier, he did not feel comfortable asking for the dish to be corrected and simply tried to eat around it. The meal was not inexpensive, and because the sauce had been poured over most of the food, he was unable to enjoy it. Approximately 80% of his meal was left uneaten. We understand that mistakes happen and that restaurant environments can be busy. However, customers should be able to ask questions about menu items and make simple requests without feeling uncomfortable or concerned about how those requests will be received. Description of waitress: Caucasian Middle aged Heavy set Extremely loud voice Rude ( nice/nasty) We wanted to share this feedback because the interaction negatively impacted our dining experience and left us feeling unwelcome. We hope this feedback is received in the spirit intended so that future guests feel comfortable asking questions and making requests without concern.
