"Dining at Bluegrass Tavern was a special treat. The pimento cheese appetizer and fried fish and grits led me to recall my delightful and delectable trips to Charleston, SC. The Swiss chard salad was light (not too heavy or filling) and the dressing was divine. Other family members thoroughly enjoyed the pulled pork, potato salad (the best we've ever had) and home style mac 'n cheese. Entree portions were just right and side dishes were generous. Our server was pleasant and calmly efficient. Having frequented other restaurants nearby and struggled with city parking, we found the valet parking to be a very nice touch. We hope to return to Bluegrass Tavern soon and look forward to introducing it to our friends."

"Chris, the wine somilier, told me about his Monday wine tasting and we thought Memorial Day would be a great time. Also, if you dined in, the wine tasting is free. Chris is a dynamic, energetic and very knowledgable somilier. His food pairing are spot on. Everything we ate was delicious. We had the southern fried chicken and the rhubarb set it off perfectly. If you love red velvet cake, you must stop by. Chris surprised us with wines to add to our deserts. My husband did not like his but Chris insisted he wait until the desert came I couldn't believe it.....the wine was wonderful WITH the desert. We are totally hooked. My sister is coming down from NY in August and we WILL stop by again and treat her palate as well."

The side dish was warm at best and other entrees not up to par. Great appetizers and dessert."

"The food was tasty but there wasn't enough of it. Portions are quite small. We got the charcuterie platter and the cheese and the pate were sliced as thin as lunch meat. I got the rabbit ravioli. It tasted fine but 5 small ravioli and 2 tablespoons of vegetables for $22 just doesn't cut it. It felt more like an appetizer. I came home and had to get something else to eat. Our server was pleasant and enthusiastic but the results were lacking. He gave me 2 samples to pick my wine but the wine I ordered never appeared until I went to the bar to inquire about it; at which point I was almost finished with my meager meal. The worst part is that they don't serve bread. How can you be so cheap as to not serve bread with a meal?"

"This was our first time at Blue Grass. It was recommended by a friend. We found the atmosphere, food and drink to be great. The date that I was with is a big bourbon drinker, so he was really excited when he saw the huge bourbon list. It gave him a chance to try different ones. We were both very impressed. The service is great, the food is great and the drinks are great. We were seated on the second floor, which was more quiet than the first floor. Very romantic setting on the second floor and it has its own bar."

"Food and service are outstanding. Dishes were fresh and creative. We loved the antelope carpaccio, mushroom "toast", rabbit ravioli and lamb spare ribs. Where else can you get those dishes? Our experience was made more awesome by the great service and knowledgable waiter/sommelier. A great experience. Definately worth the trip to Federal Hill."

"Great place with great food. But they had a stupid happy hour rule: it was a beautiful evening and we chose a table outside. But the happy-hour drinks were only served at the bar. So we sat at the bar for 5 minutes, ordered drinks, closed out our tab then took our drinks to out outside table. we had a big laugh and had a good time; but it was stupid!"

"The menu selection was unique and delicious. Blue Grass Tavern stands out in so many positive ways I may not be able to paint as vibrant a picture as our experience deserves. The restaurant's Federal Hill location is convenient to find but parking will be difficult. The solution was the resturants responsive and friendly valet service. The decor was a comfortable and rustic. Our waiter Kal was a super treat. He was so positive and energetic he has a passion for the menu and ingredients. He took the time to explain the dishes and how the chef would develop incredible flavors in each. Antelope Carpacci, Blackeyed Pea and Peanut soup delicious.....Goat Belly ( amazing ). Our entrée course was even better...this is a new favorite place."

"Went with my parents for my husband's birthday. It was our first visit and we will return. The food was terrific and I would classify ourselves as foodies and picky. I had the morel and fava pot pie. It was silky and really punched the flavor on the morels. My husband's ribeye was juicy, perfectly cooked and the sauce complimented the steak perfectly. My mother did not share her spring lamb stew and there was little left in her plate. My dad had the tile fish and did share the okra but only because he could not figure out what it was. The beer and wine lists are very nice. It is wonderful to find a place that has good craft beers AND good wine by the glass."

"Bluegrass is located in a residential street close to the busy cross street block but still away from the noisy crowds which is nice. It was too cold to eat outside but there were plenty of tables out for the warmer months. Seating is limited so I would recommend rsvping in advance. Keep in mind though that if you call, the restaurant doesn't open until 5pm so you should call at least the day before or use Opentable. Service was great, food was good. I had the burger and mac and cheese as an appetizer that was shared between three. Overall it was a good experience, but part of the draw was the exotic items on the menu that was somewhat lacking that night. Nothing particularly wowed me but I would go again."

"For the most part, a great place for brunch.
Great biscuit, great sausage gravy, great hollandaise, awesome grits.
Here are the (few) negatives... Deviled eggs - very plain, kinda dull, wouldn't order again. Salad - overdressed (which for a mayo-based dressing is particularly heavy). Sausage that comes with platters - high quality but lacks brighter notes to counterbalance the heavy porky-ness. Beignets - 3/5, lacking in flavor and yeastiness, coffee-chocolate sauce lacks oomph.
Coffee - totally fine for Dunkin Donuts lovers.
A little tweaking, this place might actually hit greatness."

"Until Sunday, I had only been to Blue Grass once for a group outing even though Ive lived 4 blocks away for 2 years. We decided to give it a shot for Easter brunch and OH MAN have we been missing out. I always associated Blue Grass with fine dinning and high prices, WRONG!
The menu is amazing and completely affordable. We ordered 3 appetizers and 4 entrees. EVERYONE love EVERYTHING...and we can be a picky group. Smoked fried chicken sandwich and the salmon cake Benedict were the table favorites!
We will definitely be back :-)"

"We went to celebrate my birthday and had a lovely time. I really enjoy their small, seasonal menu that lets you really dial in on what's fresh right now.
As I have before, I ordered the charcutie platter as an appetizer, but found the meat portions to be positively tiny this time. I almost didn't have enough to share w/my tablemates. Luckily the entree more than made up for the lack. The staff did put a candle in my dessert (no staff singing, which is fine by me!) which was a sweet touch to notate the celebration.
One note for improvement: our waiter took the bottle of wine from the table without checking the content level (it was in a chiller) and disposed of it while it still had 1/2 to 3/4 of a glass left."

"The fried chicken was superb - very crisp, spicy batter and moist meat inside. Very pleasant cozy atmosphere with attentive staff. Corn bread was also excellent. Could use a little more selection in vegetables."

"My cousin and his daughters were in Baltimore for the first time from Minnesota. They were very impressed with the brunch service, the overall ambiance, but most of all the food! My husband and I had the Country Breakfast, which was delicious - eggs just right, grits to die for, exceptional biscuits, wonderful bacon and sausage. Coffee was great. My cousin Bill had the swordfish steak and was highly impressed that it was cooked "to a tee" - saying that most places overcook it but his was moist and very tasty. His daughters were equally impressed with their biscuits and gravy."

"Newly redone menu was great. I had the fried chicken and my wife had the swordfish salad. Everything was fresh and tasted great. The chef (Tim?) even came out of the kitchen at one point and chatted with every table on the 2nd floor were we were eating. Per a previous reviewer commenting about how good their old fashioned was, I ordered one and was impressed. Red velvet cake for dessert was just OK but based on how everything else went in regards to the service, starters, and entrees, it was hard to care too much."

"Took my boyfriend here for his birthday and went on a Wednesday night. Seated on the first floor by the window. Kind of pricey for the food but it was good, not great. We ordered the charcuterie (3 selection) with bison, sausage and duck, don't remember the names of it. But it was good and my boyfriend enjoyed it. I ordered the tea time drink and it was a bit strong for my taste and he had a drink with prosecco and champagne which I liked better. I had the molasses braised beef which was delicious, but the amount was a bit small for the price. He ordered the pork loin which was good, though could have used a bit more flavor. We both left satisfied to our stomachs but skipped out on dessert. Spent $100 w/o tip."

"Off of the main drag of Charles Street the Bluegrass Tavern was an excellent spot for dinner. We had reservations early at 5:30 because we had a show to attend but they had the table ready and waiting for us. Great beer, wine and cocktail list. The bartender said they were known for their burbons. One in our group had a manhattan and he said it was great. The food was delicious. We had the crispy brie, deviled eggs and fries as appetizer. I would order the brie and fries again. A few had the burger and BBQ sandwich and said it was excellent. Tried the goat and it was very good. The Mac and cheese could feed four people and was decatant. We splurged and had dessert. It was worth it. The sweet potato cheesecake was soooo good."

"I was impressed by the friendliness of the staff. Seating is cozy, but manageable (I'm 6'3" and we were sat at a two top). The food was delicious. We had the Bison sloppy Joe, Smoked fried chicken and Crawfish hush puppies. I'd recommend Bluegrass tavern as a great place for a date or a romantic night out that won't break the bank."
