    Came for the Chi Chis takeover. Chi Chis wishes they could work with ingredients this good. The Cancun was an upscaled well deserved upgrade. Staff and service were great and speedy. Bar had the right kind of dive bar feel to it.

    Highlandtown Smash Burger
    Daisa J.

    This place was decent of always her good thing so I finally had the chance to check it out. Parking was a bit of a struggle, considering the area in the neighborhood. The Smashburger was decent, but it was too overcooked. I would've liked it more on the medium side, but they don't really give you an option for that. The fries were OK but the garlic and everything was super heavy so I couldn't finish my fries. The drinks were good. I really enjoyed the slushy. I would like to go back and try more menu items.

    Decor

    This is the place! They are decorated for the holidays and it is such a vibe. I 100% recommend going to check them out for their holiday cocktails and delicious food. Our server was amazing, she was so nice and funny and had all the recommendations. There was an item not on menu that she easily convinced us to try- the French onion ravioli- and I would go back and get it again and again! We also tried the truffle fries (holy truffle oil Batman!), the carrots over goat (normally feta but we were happy with the replacement), and a classic smash burger.

    Sally Os will always bring it with the cute decoration and vibes inside. We went for Christmas time and the ornaments were hung great, the specialty cocktails were also so fun! I would highly recommend sitting at the bar if the small amount of tables are all taken we got food up there and had a great time with the bartenders!

    Not Nashville chicken sandwich
    David M.

    This is a must stop if you are in Baltimore. The service staff is amazing. The place is not very big and they have a full bar. You can eat at the bar if the tables are full. I had the Not Nashville chicken sandwich. It was awesome. We got a Mac& cheese for the table and everyone totally enjoyed every bite. They have Mexican Coca-Cola. If you know then you know what that means. So much better than fountain or can Coca-Cola.

    Birthday cake
    Monae S.

    Sally O's was solid. My smashburger lived up to the name because I definitely smashed it. Honestly, my perfectly over easy egg and bacon made the burger itself top tier. If it wasn't for heart disease, I would triple patty that bad boy. Our server cool. My drinks were yummy. I didn't love how dense the birthday cake was but the bourbon ice cream made me smile. Maybe a drunken smile, but happy none the less. I would go back but I will say it's small and cold, so maybe bundle up if it's chilly outside. The door opens frequently and makes the place breezy

    hands down, one of my favorite restaurant week places! the food is amazing and you get so much! my friend and i split the caesar salad and the tofu for round one, i was pescatarian for 8 years so i know how tricky tofu can be to get right and i'll 100% be ordering that again next time. the smashburger and the pound cake were great as well, i left full and with a meal for the next day. the server was helpful and with us deciding our meal. i'm not sure how many servers/cooks there were but we were there a little longer than planned, we ended up being there for about 3 hours. other than that, the food and setting was great!

    Mushroom toast
    Kayla O.

    When Sally O's announced they were opening for Sunday Brunch, my friends and I were just like "take my money!" We patron Sally O's somewhat often and absolutely love their food so we were very excited to experience brunch. We made an 11 am reservation just to be safe. Our server, Natalie, was very kind, warm, attentive, and made some great recommendations. We started by splitting the mushroom toast and cheese curds. Both were phenomenal. The trout roe on the cheese curds brought so much amazing flavor. The mushroom toast was heaped with delicious mushrooms and there was a very favorable cream sauce. I went with the lemon ricotta Dutch baby. This thing was a monster but so delicious. The lemon curd with the blueberries that burst with eat bite was amazing. My friends got the chimichangas and the French onion Benedict. Both looked incredibly delicious. As always the service and ambience were great! I've never had a bad experience at Sally O's. I can't wait to go back and try some of the other amazing things in the menu. The salmon toast will be a must next time, I think.

    Highlandtown Smash Burger

    First time dining at Sally O's and definitely not our last! What a hidden gem, we absolutely LOVED our dinner here! Both cocktails were great. I'm not usually a gin fan but the Murder Hornet was fantastic! We started with the Sally's Mac and Cheese and Carnitas Quesa-Tacos. Both were excellent and we'd definitely get them again in the future. I had the CrabOnara and it was loaded with crabmeat! Great flavor. My fiancé loved the Smashburger as well! It was massive and the sauce was fantastic. Those truffle fries were the star of the show! And what better way to end a meal than a slice of birthday cake?! More restaurants should offer that! Our server, Molly, was attentive and friendly! The restaurant itself had such a cozy vibe with all of the lights and decor.

    Cute bar and menu. Late night eats with kitchen open until midnight on the weekends. Baltimore needs more places like this! Had a fancy cocktail but they have natty bohs as well. Decorative with holiday Xmas atm. Burger rated high and it delivers:

    This burger rocks!
    Christopher S.

    Sally O My what delicious food you have and so playfully decorated! Come here before the art walk or take a special someone to a neighborhood gem. The service is consistently excellent and the food never disappoints. Whatever they have of tempura, get it! Also, what a cute bathroom!

    Wings
    Anna S.

    This spot is so cute! I'm not sure what took me so long to come here. The inside is bright and colorful with fun decorations. The dining area is pretty small with a few tables, one booth, and a bar. They also have some outdoor seating as well. I would describe the menu as elevated bar food. Definitely some hearty options as well as a few salads. On this particular night, they had some specials which looked delicious as well. We got the caesar salad and the wings. The caesar had shaved brussels sprouts and cubed butternut squash making it a really unique take on a caesar. It was delicious - I loved the crunchiness of the brussels. The wings were slathered in a combination sauce of buttermilk, garlic and herbs, green buffalo sauce, and a peruvian yellow sauce. There was a lot of flavors going on! They were good but a little odd. I would've loved the choice to choose one of those sauces as opposed to having them all compete with each other. The service was friendly and fairly fast as well. I didn't have any cocktails but those looked yummy too. I'd definitely return!

    Burrata cheese & Your New Favorite Wings
    Alice L.

    Food: Hands down one of the best spots in Baltimore. The smashburger is tried & true and one of the few staples in an otherwise evolving seasonable menu. Same with the wings. Green beans are phenomenal, they must be cooked in the fat from the burgers and they are crispy and salty and addictive. We tried the burrata with sweet potato butter and homemade focaccia - so, so good. Great selection of wines and fancy, seasonal cocktails. Service: fast, friendly, attentive. Ambiance: both interior and exterior are so cute.

We walked over (still icy ugh) but made it in and were seated. Interior was very nicely done up with wicker basket light fixtures and a nice colorful mural above the host stand. Our server AJ took great care of us- they were funny, attentive and very friendly. For restaurant week the menu honestly was fantastic with many options for every person's palate and dietary preferences. I went with the octopus appetizer, squid ink bucatini with calamari, and a pound cake with lemon curd and mint whipped cream. Every single thing I had was delicious. The octopus was grilled perfectly and tender and the bean puree and potato paired nicely. The pasta was umami and not too tomatoey or acidic. My pound cake was tasty with the tanginess of the curd pairing well with the whipped cream. My boyfriend enjoyed his mushroom soup, his mushroom bolognese rigatoni( i tried this, I would absolutely order this next time)and a decadent chocolate tart. If you're reading this and they extended their restaurant week menu, go now and enjoy a fantastic meal.

Their brunch is great, their tacos are yummy and they have so much variety in terms of meat/veg and flavor profile. The first taco I ever tried was the Bang Bang cauliflower taco and I'm pretty sure I ordered it every single time I went there for a year. I also love steak taco, and at one point there was a taco take had Korean inspired flavors that was super yummy but it's no longer on the menu. For drinks I love the Julio smash and the red sangria. I also love that they always have bottomless mimosas. There's always ample seating inside and outside. However, if you're sitting on the outside that's closest to the harbor, you're kind of in the outskirts and I'm not gonna lie the two times I've sat on that far side it almost felt like our server completely forgot about us but you're by the water, it's nice and sunny, there's a nice breeze. It's also great for people watching or if you just want a little bit more privacy. The service is usually great, they are frequently training staff tho. I'm not sure if it's just a summer thing and maybe they have younger college aged adults who just need a summer gig, but once the weather gets nice there's a higher chance of you getting a server whose simultaneously training someone or you have a trainee as your waiter and then someone comes every so often asking how they're doing. Not a big deal but it can get a little annoying. Either way the food is great, the drinks are great, the location is perfect for the summer time and they have friendly staff. I will always be a regular there.

Service: We were seated quickly, which was a great start. Unfortunately, after that it felt like we were mostly forgotten. Once our server came back, everything seemed rushed as if they were trying to catch up. Taste: The food itself was underwhelming. The salsa tasted like it came straight from a jar, and the tacos we ordered were very Americanized with little authenticity or standout flavor. Ambiance: This is where the restaurant really shines. The location right on the harbor is beautiful and the overall vibe is relaxed, making it a great spot to sit outside and enjoy the waterfront. Overall, the setting is excellent, but the food and service didn't live up to the hype.

Really attentive staff and a great ambience as a neon-lit speakeasy that's a mix of casual and up scale. This time around we ordered the Arancini (presentation out of this world), N'Duja Potatoes, and broccolini. I'm usually an appetizer and entree person, my eyes don't usually go to sides, but the potatoes and broccolini (particularly the broccolini) were my favorites that night! The broccolini was so well seasoned, roasted so it had the perfect crisp, and overall so good I am still thinking about it.

There was a curtain, but it was pulled back. The market stuff is still there and the outside of the building is pretty dark. I wish they had played up the speakeasy part more, but they made up for it in service, food, and drink. We were seated quickly. There were only a few tables left and we felt lucky to grab one. Our waiter came quickly and we immediately ordered the drink special, a butternut squash old fashioned. It was amazing and the bartender came out and told us how he made it. I volunteered to be taster for future creations. I don't know if he will take me up on it. We ordered the Plum and Burrata Salad, Fristo misto, and a Goat pizza. The salad was so good. I could have had it as a meal. It had a generous amount of plums, barrata and prosciutto. The pizza had a perfect hand tossed crust. The toppings were also great. I should have asked for some red pepper flakes but that was my fault. The Frito misto was not my favorite. The breading seemed fresh which is good. I liked the shrimp better than the calamari. We didn't get to try dessert because we were about to explode. I can't wait to go back and explore more on the menu.

The goat itself had a bit more bones than I'd prefer, but overall even those were extremely tender & flavorful. Additionally I had used the Naan bread to help finish up the broth, which ended with a very satisfying comfort meal. The service & ambiance itself was also a pleasure. I personally prefer small establishments to avoid unnecessary noise while dining. Mix that with the incentive staff and you'll definitely enjoy yourself on your vist here, much like I did.

What distinguishes Good to Great is that the answer to the first question naturally leads to the second. The staff aren't just excited to make drinks. They're excited to make you a drink, tailored exactly to your preferences. Within seconds of sitting down, the owner asked about my favorite cocktail. When I said Manhattan, he didn't just nod and reach for a bottle. Instead, he followed up with a series of questions: my favorite bourbon, the vermouth-to-whiskey ratio I prefer, and a few other small details that signaled real care for the craft. A few minutes later, he returned with a Manhattan in a refrigerator-chilled glass. Certainly one of the best I've had on the eastern seaboard! Sitting back and taking in the atmosphere, it's hard not to notice that this high standard of service passes as the default.
