The Liberty Hound is a great place to have a drink right on the inner harbor. The food is “fancy” but relatively affordable. And by fancy, I mean uncommon ingredients and combinations. Something you might not normally come across. I didn’t think the food was that good, but could have been a bad night for the chef. I would assume no reservations, but grabbing a drink on the deck will make you forget how long it took to get a seat (if there is a wait).Alright local OTers I need some suggestions.
Next Friday is my 17th anniversary. Me and the Mrs want to try someplace different this year vs the usual Russell's, Salvatore's, or Black and Blue that we usually do for our anniversary and I'm looking for suggestions.
Our (see mine) basic criteria is:
And go...
- Takes reservations, since it'll be Saturday night when we go out and I'd prefer not to risk a long wait or having to change restaurants
- Won't totally break the bank. I don't mind spending more than a typical dinner out but don't want to drop $200 on dinner either.
- Somewhere on the water or with a good view (not 100% necessary but just a hope on my end.)
Thanks in advance OT
Mulberry’s is not for the view, it’s in Lackawanna, but the food at this Italian Style restaurant gets rave reviews. I haven’t had the pleasure, but everyone loves this place. I’m in sales and we go out to eat a lot, and in my industry Mulberry’s is a favorite.
I don’t know much about it, but a coworker was recently talking about Lucia’s on the Lake. I think someone in our industry owns it. I understand it to be an upscale eatery with a view. You will need more input though.
My brother just started working at the 31 Club. I believe he is the GM like he has been at recent stops. Italian fine dining with reservations and downtown atmosphere but does not include a stellar view. However, maybe I can ask him to do something special for you guys.
Sorry I couldn’t offer more experience at these places, but my customers (and my wife for that matter), typically frequent the more casual fun places instead like Gene McCarthy’s, Coyote Cafe, Dos Amigos and Riverworks. Mahoney’s is nice and has a lot of energy and good food but maybe not very intimate.
