Plates - Baltimore

I tried the rotisserie chicken with curry sauce, mashed potatoes, and broccoli. The food was great!!!

Super good food, fresh and well prepared with great service.

Worst restaurant experience of my life! Visited the location on 9/25 around 1:30pm with a colleague. Informed the waiter that we were waiting for a third. It took a ridiculous amount of time to first be served water, cleaning products were left at the table, we had to ask a number of times for a menu, we were never asked if we wanted anything other than water or if we wanted to order appetizers while we waited. We then waited a ridiculous amount of time to put our order in...to the point where we saw people who 'd come in at the same time as our third actually being served. When I finally got the waiters attention and tried to explain our aggravation his response was I already know how this is going to go and y 'all should just leave . We did just that! Never got his name but he knows who he is and he should NOT be in the service industry. PERIOD.

The portion sizes are good but the taste is never the same twice which is disappointing. Sometimes you can get dry chicken, sometimes perfect. Today I ordered a chicken cheesesteak as a wrap. It comes with fries. I usually LOVE the fries. Today I could not enjoy them. They were so full of pepper it was unbearable. The wrap was peppery too. I had to decide eat the wrap or the fries. I couldn't tolerate the pepper from both. I actually tried wiping the pepper off the fries just so could eat a few. Also the time varies when ordering for pickup. Usually if they say 10-15 minutes that means 20-25. Today I was told 20 minutes and was thinking wow. I go over (just across the street from job) in 20 minutes and surprisingly my food was ready. I wondered how long it had been ready because the fries were almost cold. I usually like this place and wish it could get 5 stars but the flavor of the same item is not consistent. The shrimp salad is the only thing that stays the same......watery and lacking of any shrimp to speak of. Ordered twice and learned my lesson.....never again.

Since the place is closed, AND therefore, has blocked access to our patio, here at Merritt, I detest the owners of this restaurant. Why not just vacate, or open for a few hours on evenings weekends...or allow another business to take over that space? #Plates sucks...COME ON, already!
