Local And Kitchen - Baltimore

Brunch was there! The shrimps and grits were RIDICULOUSLY YUMMY! The chicken was good, but the waffle was too dense and chewing, but still good. Some might like that.

They have the makings of a great thing. However, it was only like 5 occupied tables yet the wait was insane and we were told the kitchen was backed up. Never received 2 parts of my order, the turkey bacon tasted like cardboard. And the bar had nothing to offer for brunch, no mimosas, no Bellinis NOTHING. Hopefully they will work out the kinks.

Great service. Nice ambiance. Easy to miss when walking by on the street. The Josephine baker cocktail and halibut were delicious. Didn’t love the st. Germain cocktail. Music playlist was fire. I’d go back.

Food came a little late (sounds like they forgot to make one of our dishes) and we had a show nearby, but the server tried her best to get the order in and taken care of. Other than that the food was outstanding.

We were very pleased with our first experience at this new restaurant. Their menus are very small, but the items we ordered were all perfectly executed. We started with 2 cocktails from their cocktail menu (LoCal and Wild West). Neither were too sweet nor too strong. We loved them both. Next, we enjoyed the duck appetizer, which was filled with tender duck meat and surrounded by a flaky pastry. Delicious. The 1/2 chicken was cooked to perfection, crispy skin on the outside and juicy meat in the inside, atop creamy mashed potatoes. The shrimp and grits were also very tasty. Our only complaint was with the timing of everything. There didn't seem to be adequate staff and so we waited a long time for each course and didn't get water refills. We also didn't get offered dessert, which we definitely wanted. Hopefully, they will fix those 2 things. We'll be sure to return to find out.
