"We visit Baltimore often and like to try new places. This has been our favorite new find. We ate at a nearby restaurant who mentioned several other restaurants in the area, including Birroteca so we booked a reservation for the next night. Although we had reservations for table service, we changed it to sit at the bar. The bar area wasn't crowded but enough guests to be lively. The bartenders were attentive and helpful. We started off with a beer, cocktail, and their special grilled calamari appetizer. This appetizer was amazing! Since I have celiac, I was happy to see gluten free pasta and pizza options. My husband and I shared a gluten free boar bolognese pasta and a gluten free Honey Belly (changed out the pork belly to sausage due to gluten issue). My husband ordered a different beer and I moved onto a glass of wine. We enjoyed our dinner, drinks, and experience at Birroteca. Definitely on our list to return when we are back in Baltimore!"
