"What a find! I will be back. Great selection and prices. I went in for just an iced coffee and left with pesto, pasta, Italian spice mix and wine. The coffee was delicious, the staff sweet as can be and the range of products and great prices is nothing short of mindblowing particularly in the small space. This isn't a giant grocery store by the way. Has a very cozy neighborhood feel. Even the other patrons are friendly- you get the feeling they are regulars. Well worth the drive in from counties outside of the city."

"Chef Brian?s menu was exquisite. We came for the Valentine?s Day prix fixe, and were delighted that it was just as good as we imagined it would be. Each course was beautifully plated, with an exciting combination of flavors. The portions were just right; not too large or too small. Everything had fresh, pleasing textures and complimented the following dish. Our drinks, both fizzes, were also excellent in texture and flavor and we were impressed with the vastness of cocktail"

"Highly recommend Sweet Peaz Southern Kitchen! The food is served fresh and hot. We were a party of eight and ordered Fried Whiting with Yams and Mac n Cheese, Chicken and Waffles, Fried Chicken Wings, Chicken Tenders, Fried Shrimp, French Fries, and Collard Greens. The Sweet Potato Waffles were absolutely delicious! The fried chicken, shrimp, and fish were cooked perfectly and tasted as good as they looked. The seasoning was just right—not too salty, allowing the flavors to shine. The yams and collards were a real treat for the taste buds. And the cornbread? Simply amazing. My only disappointment was that the first taste was free (haha). The Mac n Cheese was decent, but the Chicken Tenders didn’t quite live up to their name; however, they did remake them for us to take home. The space is small and simple, with old-school music that adds to the enjoyable dining experience. They limit dining to one hour to ensure everyone can enjoy the food, which I appreciate—I dislike when people linger for too long when others are waiting. The staff were friendly, making us feel valued and appreciated. Prices are reasonable. One downside was that many items were unavailable, including grits—which was a big letdown since I was looking forward to the famous Shrimp and Grits—as well as butter, potato salad, seafood salad, and tartar sauce. I recommend calling ahead if you’re craving a specific dish. Despite this, it was a great dining choice and lived up to the positive reviews. Overall, we left satisfied and would gladly return. Parking is street parking only, as there’s no dedicated lot."

"From the story of its’s beginnings, the staff, and of course the insanely delicious food, there aren’t enough words to say how much I love this bakery. I am honestly so blown away by the food here. Everything tastes as if it has all of the usual allergens in it, but somehow doesn’t. It’s clear that they spent so much time perfecting each recipe. You really can’t find a better bakery, let alone one that can be enjoyed by anyone regardless of there dietary restrictions.Waiting for the day that someone notices this amazing little bakery and wants to invest in adding more locations."

"Possibly one of the best bakeries in the entire country? Forget crab cakes; when you’re in Baltimore, you must visit Café Dear Leon, like how a foodie trip to SF is not complete without Tartine.I was struck by how much better CDL is than even the top bakeries in NYC. They’ve mastered the art of the laminated dough—croissants, kouign amanns, danishes, quiches. Also, their scones are the best I’ve ever had.CDL releases baked goods on a strict schedule. Check their website. Once an item has sold out for the day, that’s it. The most popular items are completely gone in less than an hour on a weekend. During the colder months, CDL doesn’t have any seating as they need the space to keep guests warm while queueing.The pastries do retain their crispness throughout the day, but obviously they’re much better when fresh out of the oven.I’ll be haunted by the fact that I can’t just hop over to CDL whenever I have a craving for pastries."
