How we check listings

Restaurants open, close and change all the time. Here is how we keep this guide honest.

What we list

Places with a long track record or a strong local reputation, chosen to show the range of eating in Baltimore: crab houses, delis, markets, neighborhood favorites and special-occasion restaurants.

How we check

Before a place goes on the site, we check that it is operating using its own website and recent listings. Each page shows the month it was last checked. We aim to re-check every few months and remove places that close.

Ratings and reviews

We do not invent ratings or reviews. Star ratings and comments on this site come only from readers.
