The inviting space features hanging lights, interior greenery, and communal seating, making it the perfect place to indulge in the many plates meant for sharing.

In addition to well-prepared staples such as chicken korma and lamb vindaloo, consider the house specials (halibut cold-pressed in coconut milk floats our boat). We also love the daily happy hour (known as “bliss hour”) with small plates on offer.

Enjoy a wide array of affordable pinxtos (bite-sized tasting dishes) and small plates, as well as heartier entrees such as duck magret, porcini-crusted New York strip steak, and lamb loin with crispy sage.

]]> Lebanese Taverna https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/directory/restaurant/lebanese-taverna/ Thu, 20 Mar 2014 12:27:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?post_type=listing&p=13218 Sure, you can order entrees, but choosing from the staggering selection of mezza (small plates) is the way to go—from pungent cheeses and briny capers to smoky grilled vegetables and meats. A never-ending supply of warm pita bread encourages scooping. The dining room has a coveted view of the harbor.

]]> Magdalena https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/directory/restaurant/magdalena/ Thu, 17 Mar 2016 13:15:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?post_type=listing&p=13111 This fine-dining den inside The Ivy Hotel emphasizes cross-cultural cuisine.

The fact that the food (do try the charcoal-grilled whole fish) is superb is icing on the cake. In fact, the desserts win raves for their spun-sugar garnishes. And, yes, the ouzo flows just like the name indicates.

]]> Pairings Bistro https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/directory/restaurant/pairings-bistro/ Thu, 17 Mar 2016 13:27:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?post_type=listing&p=13097 The pairing of food and wine is at the heart of this petite, contemporary restaurant, whose seasonal menu relies on local, sustainable, and organic ingredients.

You’ll understand their patience once you’ve had the Old World food, from the tzatziki appetizer and Greek salad (of course) to the traditional souvlaki platter and the unpronounceable galaktoboureko (custard in phyllo) dessert.

]]> Tapas Teatro https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/directory/restaurant/tapas-teatro/ Sat, 22 Mar 2014 14:55:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?post_type=listing&p=13178 As its name suggests, mini dishes meant for sharing take precedence at this artsy eatery equipped with brick archways and a marble-top bar. Spanish-inspired bites range from spicy mashed chicken croquettes to chorizo crostini topped with fried quail eggs.

]]> Tersiguel’s Country House And Restaurant https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/directory/restaurant/tersiguels-country-house-restaurant/ Sat, 22 Mar 2014 14:50:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?post_type=listing&p=13180 The kitchen embellishes classic French dishes with creative touches in this mainstay that carries on the traditions of chef Michel Tersiguel’s parents, who, though retired, are still a presence in this homey setting. You’ll find nods to the family’s native Brittany with dishes like escargot in garlic butter, among other items.

]]> The Ambassador Dining Room https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/directory/restaurant/the-ambassador-dining-room/ Thu, 20 Mar 2014 12:24:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?post_type=listing&p=13232 It’s one of the most romantic restaurants in town with its crackling fireplace in cool weather and its lush terrace with gurgling fountain on warmer days.

An extensive collection of fine wines is available, too. A spare, cheery atmosphere suits the meal just fine.

]]> The Corner Pantry https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/directory/restaurant/the-corner-pantry/ Thu, 17 Mar 2016 15:50:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?post_type=listing&p=13069 Continued]]> From simple breakfast delights—like cereal-crusted doughnuts—to savory lunch and dinner offerings, this British-inspired café offers a wide variety of light fare.

A buffet-style cold bar boasts a spread of grab-and-go options if you’re in a hurry.

]]> The Helmand https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/directory/restaurant/the-helmand/ Thu, 20 Mar 2014 12:27:00 +0000 https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/?post_type=listing&p=13210 This long-standing Baltimore wonder has introduced scores of diners to the joys of Afghan cuisine, from the kaddo borwani (baked pumpkin in yogurt-garlic sauce) and mantwo (ground-beef-and-onion-stuffed pastry shells) to aromatic ice cream. The convivial, well-appointed dining rooms and shockingly reasonable prices are a treat.
