We love to visit this aquarium. We drive 3 hours to get there. The whole family enjoys it, young and old. It can be very expensive if you have a lot of children, but worth it if you've never been there before. They have a rainforest section which is nice. Many sharks, stingrays, tropical fish and turtles. You cannot use strollers in there, they give you baby carriers and backpacks to wear because of all the floors and escalators. The best thing about this place is the dolphin show, very amusing & entertaining and the view of Inner Harbor is amazing!

I went here for restaurant week and had an amazing experience. I asked the bartender to choose my items for me and she did beautifully. She was fun, attentive and a pleasure to be around. The hostesses were the same way. The food itself was unreal also. If you go, make sure to have the Hawaiian Hauipu (sic) because it is incredible.
Pros: Great Service, Incredible Food
Cons: Can't think of any

On recommendation from friends who know I like HOT food, my husband and I ate here. WOW! Their shrimp vindaloo was the BEST I ever tasted! I ordered it call out the fire department hot and they didn't disappoint! Not just hot, but very nicely spiced. My husband ordered a milder dish (korma) and it was wonderful, too. Definitely plan to eat here again on our next vacation to Baltimore!

Love the nachos grande at this place, however you have to keep an eye on everything when you carryout, I ordered a (2) nachos grande with everything for myself and a group of co-workers at my job. When I got the Nachos back to the office and all divvied up we all realize there is no meat?? Called up to Holy Frijoles and spoke with the same guy Lesser who took the order, and he says just because I ordered grande doesn't mean the meat would come I tell him I asked for everything and I spoke with you when i ordered he doesn't take my name or anything just tells me to speak with the manager next time I come. The staff needs to lay off the mind altering substances!!!! I will go back and speak with either Nate or kristen then let you know how well they handle this dillema. My suggestion order all you want but eat in so if theres a problem you won't have to deal with the lack of ready response to issues.--------------------->
As promised I would follow up. I ordered carry out a week later and spoke with Abbie? after a little back and forth (manager stepped out and she needed to phone her regarding my mix up). They comped my two orders of nachos and they were loaded with all of the desired toppings, we ordered other items this day (chicken quesadilla, and how ironic nachos grande no meat - Lent) and everyone was thoroughly satisfied. So hat's off to Holy Frijoles for totally redeeming yourselves. Due to the excellent attention my office will enjoy the best Nachos deal in town. So don't hesitate to dine in or carry out of this spot, bur you gotta try the loaded nachos there's enough to feed 4 for under $10.00. The toppings are fresh and delicous some of the best salsa ever.
Pros: Great food cheap eats
Cons: check carry out orders thoroughly

Went to City Cafe before a show at the Lyric. Was sat quickly (had made reservations). It was Tuesday and 1/2 price bottle of wine day which was a nice suprise. Food was hot and came out quickly, very tasty. Had a nice balance between traditonal favorites (hamburger, meatloaf) to some more interesting options (lobster ravoli, crab and aspragus risotti). Service was quick but never felt rushed. Server was polite and efficent and had a sense of humor. For appetizer, two entrees, bottle of wine, 5 pints of beer, and dessert the bill was around 100.00 which I consider to be very reasonable even more so considering it was mt. vernon. I enjoyed my visit and would happily return.
Pros: good variety, good service
Cons: 2 unisex bathrooms with a wait

I was here looking for a specific type of goldfish that my son saw in a movie. We found the fish with the help of the great staff and were suprised at the reasonable price of three dollars for such a pretty fish. We took the fish home he died within a day. We returned the fish and the store gave us no problems and refunded our money. Stress free transaction.

I am often disappointed when I order Shrimp and/or Lobster Bisque, but Copra's chef nailed it - nice roux, lots of butter, and just the right amount of sherry. Best Shrimp Bisque I've ever had! My Meatloaf had a lovely gravy, and accompanying Mac n Cheese was pleasantly crisp on the top and bottom - not what I anticipated, but very good. My husband's entree - the Pizza du Jour - was Steak Pizza (topped with Filet Mignon tips and red onions). A little weird, don't think I would order that again. Love the decor with lots of wood, candles, and stone accents. I felt like I was in NYC, but much more affordable.
Pros: Ambiance, Decor

I LOVE their food. They are famous for their extremely tasty Bite Burgers, which are basically hamburgers. The place is always full of religious people, but everyone is welcome to come. The parking lot isn't the best, but its average size. There is a pizza place right next to it.

We have been using M.T. Burns Plumbing for many years and can vouch for his work. He is honest and does very careful and thorough work. We've never had a problem with any of the work he's done in any of our houses over the years. He has installed a boiler, a water heater, added a radiator, and has done countless other smaller jobs. The only problem is that he runs late all the time. If he says he can start a job on Monday, it'll be more like Wednesday or Thursday before he gets there but he does always call to let you know that he'll be late. He just likes to talk a lot and he also works slowly but he charges by the job, not the hour, so you don't pay more. If you have a flexible schedule, he's great.
