    The food is so good here. We had the bees short rib w carrots and it is worth going back for again! The buffalo dill pickles are yummy. I had the cocktail “Thyme after Thyme” and dint care for it- tasted a bit like cough syrup. Good service. Nice ambiance but the music was a bit loud and reminded me of Las Vegas club music .

    Great food. Good service. Noise level was high for a Tuesday evening but most likely attributed to the acoustics of the restaurant. Felt like we were sitting on top of the tables next to us. Tables for two are in a line and close to one another. The metal chairs are loud on the floor and when people get up to leave, it’s noisy.

    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.
