Whether you're looking for a cup of coffee and pastry or a delicious dinner this lovely restaurant is the place to be. The bartender is a great mixologist the staff are friendly and the food is clean elegant Italian. Their board game nights on Monday's are super fun. When I lived in Baltimore I went there every day for my morning coffee and at least twice a week for dinner.

MMMM sausage and beer. They make all there own sausages ( vegan options too) in house. The beer selection is big and features a lot of local makers. The bar is great , the bar owners created a bartop out of scrabble letters. Excellent happy hour, good mystery beer for three bucks and the bartenders are good dj's.

Oh Clavel you had me at tacos that can make a California girl cry tears of happiness and Mexican 40's for 6 bucks ( Also known as Caguamas or Ballenas depending on what part of Mexico you're in) This restaurant is BEAUTIFUL inside. The walls are distressed brick and the space is full of quiet nooks for couples or common tables for groups. They have the besy Mexican food in Baltimore PERIOD and the pricing is right where it should be. It's in an area just above Mt Vernon where the community is inspiring and creative.
