    Great food, loved the ambiance. Only issue was me and my wife came in many empty tables, yet they wanted to seat us at the back table by the kitchen, area covered by a cloth and server coming in and out. I requested to be seated on a empty table behind the bar and they moved me. But I noticed all night that other couples that came in were never seated at that particular back table, they even sat them on 4 person tables, yet they wanted me and my wife to sit there. Is it because every couple was caucasian and we are latinos? Besides that service was good and yummy food!!!

    Our favorite place to dine in Baltimore! They have a lot of gluten free options, including bread, pasta and flatbread/pizzas! Everything is always fresh and amazing when we have come here! The staff is also great, super friendly and accommodating! The vibes are just right for a date night, or dinner with coworkers! The food is super fresh and overall delicious! We haven’t had a meal we disliked from here. We highly recommend!

    Our first time there was very memorable. The restaurant design and dining spaces were well designed. The staff were friendly and courteous. Our waitress was great with a wonderful service etiquette. The food was very delicious and drinks were refreshing. The burrata is a must if you ask me! Cosima is now on our list of favorite restaurants here in Baltimore. Definitely will be back!

    Went there for a date night with my fiancé and it was our 1st time there. Let’s just say that we will be back. Food was great and the drinks were even better. The atmosphere was very pleasing and inviting. We’ll be coming back with our friends. We had the octopus salad and bistecca and all of it was delicious.

    Food was exceptional in taste and unusual ingredients/combos.e g. Bucatini and included sage, butternut squash puree, crispy speck. Orecchiette had porcini cream sauce and arugula. Really enjoyed it. Our server was attentive and helpful. The service rating was more about a) granted there were 10 of us, but I thought it took a long time to get our drinks and food, b) after the first round of bread rolls, subsequent rolls are $1 each, c) they couldn't split the check for the group the way we wanted, d) the portion size seemed small for the price ($34 for at most 2 cups of bucatini without the speck and cheese). Charming restaurant though, tucked away off a rustic courtyard. Free valet parking. We will probably return but not anytime soon.

    Very secluded, has a rustic feel and delicious food. The service was also amazing. 👌 You can host a private event there, and they even provide a custom menu for you and 🎂.

    Maybe not their best night. For appetizers we ordered the octopus and the burrata. The octopus was cooked well if maybe a little smaller than expected. But there were a lot of chickpeas under it that didn’t seem seasoned at all. The burrata didn’t taste like much and didn’t look like some pictures we have seen or like the last time we had gotten it here. The bread with it was very hard and the tomatoes were very cold and didn’t taste good. For mains we got the steak and the sea bream. The sea bream was cooked well and not dry. I don’t think it needed as much sauce as there was over it and made it look kind of unappealing. The steak was fine but needed salt as it didn’t seem seasoned either. We ordered a couple of cocktails which were the best things we had while visiting. We also had the wine fight which was 3 rosés. I recommend the drinks over the food. We also got the tiramisu for dessert which was fine. Nothing was “bad” but it was a bit of a let down. Especially for the prices.

    We have gone many times to Cosima over the years and it never disappoints. We usually enjoy the outdoor dining more, but our indoor experience this evening was great..Four of us shared two appetizers (one with shrimp and the other with meatballs). We then ordered two branzinos fish that we shared. It was delicious. We ended our meal with chocolate cake and ice cream..This is a first class restaurant. I am giving it a 4 rather than a 5 that it fully deserves because they charged us $4.00 for a basket of tolls. I find this unacceptable.

    This place is a Gem 💎 an old Mill turned into a gorgeous and upscale restaurant. Great service and tasty Italian dishes cooked to perfection. Great spot for dates. The Branzino, steak and octopus are cooked on charcoal grill outside.

    We went here for a last minute anniversary dinner last month, and it turned out to be one of our favorite dates. The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. The food was delicious. My partner got the NY strip, and I got the pork chop (both pictured). It’s a little difficult to park in the area, but they offer complimentary valet! I can’t wait to go back on a warm day to enjoy their patio.

    Come ready to indulge yourself. The family and I had a great time. The food was amazing, especially the tiramisu🤤. They had some good vegetarian options for me to choose from as well. The outdoor seating is beautiful by the water. Will be back soon.

    Aaron (GM) and Aaron (bartender) are wonderful! Try the Arancina if you like an old fashioned but with a bitter kick. The octopus was phenomenal. I truly cannot describe how great the first bite was. I could have eaten that for every meal for the rest of my days. When there was no more delightful, perfect-textured octopus left on my plate, I devoured the arugula dressed with an exquisite citrus vinaigrette. It was a small, simple meal that left me daydreaming about my next visit and next order! Thanks, Aaron² !

    The worst dining experience I had so far! They have a very unprofessional and rude waitress, she used to run into our table and take our plates away, without asking anything, despite there were still foods inside. She who spilled the leftover soup all over my coat at the first time she came and took plate back rudely, and she kept laughing all the time after spilled the soup. No serious apologize was received from her. When I was taking a break from my desserts, a large portion was still left in the plate.The same waitress just came and took my spoon and plate without asking anything. Then I told her I'm still working on it, but she just left ignoring me and took my stuff away and never came back with a new spoon.

    Most exceptional food I've had in Baltimore. The bartenders are talented and extremely knowledgeable. Service was friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere of the restaurant is elevated and very "cool". Food was plated beautifully and had rich, developed flavors. The pasta was obviously handmade and cooked perfectly. This was the perfect place for a fancy birthday dinner.

    Wanted to really like this place. It has alot going for it. Setting, service, cleanliness were all great. Unfortunately the food did not match all the good things going for it. To begin, the food is overpriced so by the prices I was expecting an amazing meal. Everything was bland and underwhelming. The food is not of very high quality either. Pasta is not homemade or at least I hope not. The chef brought out the lobster plate telling us that, "usually there is a lobster tail on the plate but tonight it was just lobster meat." But yet still charged us lobster tail prices. I'm convinced the lobster was frozen because it was very rubbery. What an absolute shame. In all, I would never recommend this place to anyone. It's not worth the money.

    We stopped by here yesterday for a dinner for two. The ambience and service was welcoming plus a decent nice decor. Our waiter was awesome with some good recommendations. We ordered the burrata, octopus with salad and the the huge fish dish. We really enjoyed the burrata and fish but the octopus tasted a little too burnt and didnt hit the spot. Aside that, we really enjoyed the whole vibe and service here.

    Fabulous Italian fine dining spot. Dishes are thoughtfully crafted and cooked perfectly. Impressive wine list. Everything was delicious. It is pricey, but not without reason. The branzino was a highlight. Finish your dining experience with their amaro flight.

    From the complementary valet, to the hostess who greeted us by name, to our lovely waitress, to the perfect patio setting - this was the perfect way to spend our anniversary. The food was a bit overpriced for what it was but overall tasty and a very nice experience! Thank you!
