Wine Market Bistro - Baltimore

Really great experience! We will be back soon. I wish they were open for lunch. My only complaint was the music selection, which was a little strange for this environment.

I was extremely impressed with everything we ordered. While the menu was not extensive, the dishes we chose were delicious and creative. The small plate options were very nice. The service was excellent.

This restaurant is not my style. The bar was filled with loud, rowdy customers even though it was empty. The tasting menu offered small portions for a high price. The waitress misled me about the mildness of the green peppers in my clam chowder, causing me discomfort. I was given asparagus as a replacement, the only vegetable option available. My water glass was left empty, and I had to ask for a refill. The seating consisted of uncomfortable backless benches, but a chair could be requested. This restaurant does not cater to those looking for a healthy, balanced meal. Despite feeling either too full or unsatisfied, the coffee was the only highlight of the experience.

4 plates divided. Scallops cooked perfectly, sauce not very aromatic, chased the small amount of peas around the plate. Beet platter was good. Tuna poke had strings of supposedly kelp salad, fries were sparse and not wasabi powder. If more chips were requested, the answer was "not sure but will be checked". Return with 4 chips. It seemed pretty strange that the smoked bluefish and avocado toast was served with bluefish on one toast and avocado on the other.

Amazing experience from the staff, ambience and the food was thoughtful, fresh, inventive and I want to go back for the vegetable gnocchi immediately.
