Baltimore Restaurants

As a major city, Baltimore has a great selection of restaurants that range from casual to top-shelf fine dining. While restaurants vary from American bistros to international eateries, what Baltimore is really known for is crab. Maryland crab cakes are an iconic dish featured on nearly every menu, and they are a cant-miss dish. Stone crab, snow crab and soft shell crab are popular menu items when in season. If you're not in the mood for shellfish, Baltimore has some great grills that feature different cuts of meat. The harbor area features a number of restaurants, including casual burger spots and bars, and it is also one of the fine dining destinations with an abundance of upscale American and European restaurants to choose from.
