Restaurants near Federal Hill

Tyler was amazing we loved her! Food was fantastic and came out so fast 😭

We made reservations on line for Valentine’s Day less than a week before the 14th. I was very happy to get a reso at such late notice but noticed that it said we’d be dining outside. When I called they told me that it meant we could be sitting in the Venda deli where they would be setting up tables and serving the same food if there were no tables inside when I get there. When we arrived, the restaurant was packed. The hostess who was fantastic told us that we would have to wait about 20 mins. By the time I went to the bar and got drinks for us she came and got us to be seated in the main restaurant upstairs. I honestly don’t know how they were able to accommodate so many people, so efficiently. It obviously was not like a normal day but they did a great job working hard to please their customers. We were very impressed at how fast we got served and how pleasant the staff was in the midst of the very busy evening. Thank You!

99% of everything was great. We stopped into doorway about 10 min before our reservation and could hear the host saying we better not f-ing come in before 4. Which we only did to double check our reservation time because it was so cold out and the sign on the door said open at 4:30 so I panicked. I was in the restaurant industry for over a decade so I get it, but FYI your door is not sound proof. So maybe just say it to yourself.

Me and my girlfriend came here for our 5 year anniversary and it was definitely worth it. The food was so good best Italian food I’ve had in a long time the drinks were amazing. I would definitely recommend going here.

Visited on a Monday night and it was a terrific evening! The entire staff was great from the wait staff to the servers to the complimentary valet which is a bonus on Federal Hill. We opted for Massimo's Monday Night Wine + Dine set price menu because they included terrific gluten free Italian options - to include GF bread. We shared the Baby Spinach, Caramelized Onion, Gorgonzola, Candied Walnuts, Pancetta, Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad, Calamari Fritti, Shrimp Scampi and Gnocchi margherita - all cooked beautifully. We parted ways on dessert so there was Tiramisu, Cannoli, and we even added a Cheesecake with Cherries. Needless to say, we are not afraid of a great meal! We will be back! Thank you!
