    Although the service was great, I like the location in Baltimore better. The food and atmosphere is better at the other location. First time I didn’t like the food at the Food Market. Very bland but the drinks were good. The crowd of ppl waiting for tables near my table was uncomfortable as well. Will stick to the Baltimore location instead.

    Two of us shared the pork belly, onion soup/rings, charred cabbage and the short rib main dish. All were delicious. Service was first rate. A creative menu that changes periodically.

    The food was great and the service was great as well. We appreciated how friendly our waitress was in celebrating a birthday, and how accommodating the manager was.

    The best wings I have ever had. And one of my top 3 favorite hamburgers now. Good vibes as well. Worth the money.

    It was a mixed experience. My food and my dads was over cooked. My brother and SIL had no issues with the food. I had a great experience with dinner a couple weeks back, so I had high hopes for brunch. I was disappointed that brunch wasn’t as good as dinner. I’d go back dinner but not brunch.

    I always enjoy being at the food market. The ambience and food is always great. This is one of the places with better service thus a plus for me. I was disappointed with a hair of string in my food which the manager dealt with swiftly. Still love the place and plan to return many more times

    Creative menu and will return to try more. We tried 8 different things and I would say while they were all good only 1 was a “wow” and 1 was a “no”. Others were fine but often felt like they were just missing something. Atmosphere was fun for a Friday night.
