Reviews for Gertrude's in Baltimore, MD
We had our reception at Gertrude's last weekend and it was perfect!! I highly recommend if you're looking for a venue to host an... event! We were able to get beautiful photos down in the BMA gardens and had the cocktail hour in the sculpture garden and on theterrace. We did food stations so we got to select 3 different entrees along with 2 sides, and they were ALL DELICIOUS!!! Theguests raved about the food! They could get whatever they wanted and go back for seconds and thirds. We had Angus beef withmushroom risotto and mosaic vegetables, fried chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans, and vegetable lasagna with a kale &sweet potato curry and greek salad. Guests were able to eat dinner either indoors or out on the terrace, and then we danced thenight away on the terrace, where there was plenty of space! It was great because if anyone wanted to sit and chat in a quieterenvironment, they could just go back inside and sit by the bar or at one of the tables. The drinks were also very tasty! Theservers were super attentive and Richard was wonderful and took great care of me and my husband throughout the night! Emily wasfantastic! She coordinated everything and communicated with me throughout the planning process and during the event. Emily issuper responsive, personable, and patient. She made everything so easy and answered all my questions in the months leading up tothe reception. We couldn't have asked for a better coordinator or venue! The guests kept commenting on how beautiful it was andhow much fun they had. We're so grateful that we found Gertrude's and that they were available on our date! Thank you toeveryone for making our day so special!! Read more
Food was really good, especially the French toast. Brunch came with cornbread and biscuits for the table. Great atmosphere to... sit outside on a sunny day. Read more
Delicious. After a nice museum tour, this is a perfect place to have lunch. Today’s gorgeous weather was perfect to sit... outside. A glass of rosé with spinach salad is a good start. The Salmon and crab cake are super yummy. Peach upside down cakeis a perfect way to close. We will return to Gertrude’s. Kiss, Olan Read more
Had a brunch reservation at noon and everything in theory should have been great. Unfortunately, we had poor service that... limited our ability to fully enjoy the experience. We had to order drinks multiple times and never received some of them. Thewrong order was brought out and we then had to wait 20 mins for the correct plate, and the grits meal was unappetizing. Ourserver came to our table maybe 4 times over the whole meal. I spoke to the management who apologized and took 50 percent off themeal but the whole experience ruined what should have been a fun girls brunch at a beautiful location. We will never return andcaution others to experience the museum and grounds but dine elsewhere. Read more
I dined at Gertrude’s during restaurant week and I could not have chosen a better time to go. I made a reservation, showed up... 15 minutes early without my entire party and was seated immediately. While waiting on 2 guests the waiter served cocktails tothose who were seated and the drinks were very good. I selected the wine pairing option on the prix fixe menu. Each dish andwine were excellent. Everyone at our table loved their meals and my dessert was so delicious I had to take extra time to savorit. I will be returning to try brunch soon. Read more
Gertrude's is an ideal restaurant for a special occasion dating experience! The ambiance in yhe restaurant is top notch. Very... sophisticated. I My date and I tried the Oyster Po' Boy w/ fries, Rock Fish w/ asparagus, fudge sundae, GOAT cheesecake, andsome sangria. It was all very tasty and fresh. The pricing was relatively steep, but, was considerably lower than other arearestaurants. The service here was very good, as well. Would certainly recommend Gertrude's for a special occasion meal.

I came here for Sunday brunch & it was okay. The parking lot is small, but there is ample street parking available. We had a... reservation, so didn’t have any wait time for a table. We sat indoors, since it was November, but the patio looked nice, soI’m sure it’s great to sit out there in spring/summer. Service is average. I ordered eggs scrambled, pancakes, smoked bacon& potatoes. The eggs were room temperature (borderline cold). Whoever was cooking that day, doesn’t know you’re supposed tocook the eggs last, so they don’t get cold, lol. The pancakes were delicious, though. The bacon & potatoes were just okay. Ialso had a mango mimosa & that was good, but could’ve used a bit less mango & a bit more champagne. The meal was veryinexpensive ($70ish for two people), but I probably won’t ever go back. I wasn’t impressed & the location isn’t convenientenough for me to give it another go. Read more
Planning to spend the day at the Baltimore Museum of Art so decided we should lunch there as well. We arrived at our reservation... time and were promptly seated. (You can select inside or outdoors, when you make reservations online.) Our waitperson Eric wasfriendly, answered all our questions, and promptly took our order. Our wait for drinks and food was not long, but enough time toenjoy the ambiance of our surroundings. My Crab Quiche was awesomely delicious and filling, served with a lovely garden salad.His Mock Crab Cakes with Asian noodles and veggies were good as well. Luncheon completed in time for our 2pm exhibitionreservation. Read more
