You can talk to your friend for a hour here over a cup of coffee and feel perfectly comfortable.
Or, if you're starving, you can get an incredibly huge (and tasty) breakfast. It's the perfect place to meet people when you don't want to be drinking alcohol.
I've never had a bad breakfast there and I love the artsy-fartsy atmosphere--- a little like Berkeley California. Except the prices are much better.

It's perfectly OK and the bread is fantastic. But if you get stuck in the back room, the atmosphere is terrible and the tables are way too close together.
And the prices-- sheesh.
I think this is mostly the Emporer's new clothes. Because it's impossible to get a reservation on weekends, everyone thinks it's the place to be (it's not-- Pazo is) .
That being said, the food is good. And if you go on a non-weekend night, and don't order more than one glass of wine, it's worth going to.

The good news-- the drinks are still great and it's a nice place to have a watermelon martini with a good friend or a place to stop by after/before dinner.
The place is beautifully designed and now there's even more space for the bar on the weekend (they move the dinner tables-- which is fine because dinner ain't worth it)

Corks is the nicest restaurant in Federal Hill. I live in the neighborhood and I love bringing my parents here--- if they're paying. It's pretty pricey-- not sure if it's worth it. The wines are especially expensive--- it's hard to find a bottle under $50.
That being said, the food is great, the service is wonderful, and if you don't want to be driving in Federal Hill but need an impressive place to take someone, I would definitely recommend Corks over Bicycle.
The 3 times I've been, I found the appetizers and desserts to be the best part. Next time, I'm totally skipping the entre.

OK. I lived in San Fransico for 10 years (not close to it, right in the middle of all the great restaurants) . I recently moved to Baltimore and I thought there would never be a restaurant as great as the great ones there.
I was wrong.
This place not only has 5 star food, it has 5 star atmosphere but at 3 star prices.
And the lounge/bar is actually a comfortable place where you can talk, get some great tapas, and not feel like a sardine. While it's really romantic, it's also a perfect place to go on a girls night out.
Best of all, no smoking--- just like california!
It's much better than Corks-- my former favorite restaurant in Baltimore.
