Restaurants near The Maryland Zoo

They were very accommodating! We changed our number of people and time. Service was excellent

Can not recommend it enough - the craft cocktails, blue crab & bone marrow dip followed by oysters and then the seared scallops was AMAZING. Will definitely be returning.

Have been to Gertrude's a few times and it has always been enjoyable. This visit was, as expected, just as memorable. The original cocktail was interesting and wonderfully flavorful. The other classic cocktail was expertly mixed and was like a visit from an old friend. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. What really made the night complete was the charming and helpful server, Grace. No matter how good food and drink is, a restaurant either succeeds or fails based on the quality of the service. Fortunately, this restaurant has staff as lovely and accommodating as Grace. Thank you all for a wonderful birthday dinner.

The food was delicious. We bad the pear and ricotta bruschetta, bolognese and the pasta alla vodka. The atmosphere was lovely and the staff was attentive.

Delicious salad w baby tomatoes, ricotta, pine nuts, and red leaf lettuce and excellent wild mushroom risotto. Yummy dessert - little fried doughballs, very light and tasty. Attentive and friendly service, with good suggestions when asked. Came for late ish lunch on Sunday and ate in pleasant dining room with stone walls and wooden benches. We usually have dined on the patio, which is also pleasant when it’s not too cold. A favorite place for us.
