Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Northwest Baltimore

Delicious salad w baby tomatoes, ricotta, pine nuts, and red leaf lettuce and excellent wild mushroom risotto. Yummy dessert - little fried doughballs, very light and tasty. Attentive and friendly service, with good suggestions when asked. Came for late ish lunch on Sunday and ate in pleasant dining room with stone walls and wooden benches. We usually have dined on the patio, which is also pleasant when it’s not too cold. A favorite place for us.

Loved every minute. We went at a quiet Friday lunchtime and were able to ask lots of questions about the source of the sausage and olive oil etc, as well as sharing memories of our experiences in Sardinia and hearing about the owners’ life there. Needless to say, the service was great. The food was tasty and filling and really fresh, with carefully selected ingredients. This is as close to a Sardinian meal in Sardinia as you’re going to get without actually traveling there.

I usually order the delicious crab quiche and did so again. It comes with greens and is just the perfect amount of food for me. My beverage was a cider. My husband had pork tenderloin and was very happy with his choice. He chose a hoppy IPA for his beverage. We splurged on calories and split a yummy dessert. The service was excellent even though Gertrude’s was very crowded.

Tyler was an outstanding server. The food was delicious. I highly recommend the Maryland crab soup and the brussel sprouts.

Food was surprisingly good & service was great as well. Lots of backdrops for pictures.
