Costiera

“A absolutely fantastic Mediterranean resturant. Especially convenient if staying in neighboring hotels. Swordfish balls, focaacia, pasta, drinks, service, vibe, ambiance were all excellent. The calamari was slightly on the weaker side due to maybe being undercooked and not as soft as it could be, but, overall really good flavor! Loved the dark chocolate creme brulee!! Spot on. Shout out to Ryleigh who stood out service wise. Very attentive, responsive, and engaging. Will definitely return next time I back in Baltimore. Thank you Costiera!!”

“I don’t even like Italian food and this place is fantastic. The focaccia was delightfully oily, salty, soft, and crunchy, and the squid ink bucatini was lick-your-plate delicious with the best mix of textures.”

“What a gem! We randomly found Costiera and we loved it. Great vibe, not too loud, perfect for a date. We sat at the window and people watched. We enjoyed a lovely drink called the Paper Wasp. Ordered the house made focaccia, perfection. A beet, buratta and pear salad with pistachios was so fresh and lovely. The mains were house made pasta with ragu, fantastic; and short rib with roasted sweet potatoes and a purple purée. Amazing flavors but honestly the short rib was a little dry. So I would say that was a little disappointing. Dessert was the chocolate tart with candied hazelnuts. We got a side of whipped cream. It needed it to cut the richness. So Yummy. But honestly 9/10. Would definitely plan to come again next time we are in the area!”

“Even after that massive storm, I’m so glad I snagged a Restaurant Week spot. There’s a $5 parking garage right across the street. The walk was a bit icy, but the vibe inside—cool wicker basket lights and a colorful mural—made it inviting. Our server, AJ, was awesome and made good recommendations. The RW menu is stacked with great options: * The grilled octopus appeteizer was incredibly tender, and the squid ink bucatini was an umami dream. The calamari was perfectly cooked and not rubbery. *my bf's mushroom bolognese was very tasty and something I would order myself next time I'm there * The lemon curd served alongside the pound cake with mint whipped cream was the perfect finish for me. Though I was also eyeing my bf's chocolate tart as it looked so good. If they’ve extended the RW menu, stop reading and just go!”

“Bartender, excellent. Atmosphere is perfect for 2-4 person parties. Both bar & table seating promote conversation. Ambient music & soft lighting. Great stop for Mediterranean”
