Reviews for Papi Cuisine in Baltimore, MD
Papi Cuisine is a black owned establishment and didn?t disappoint! There were 6 people in our party and everyone thought their... food was fantastic! The presentation looked exactly how it is advertised and the taste was amazing! I highly recommend thisplace! The drinks and service were on point as well. It?s not a very large establishment but seating is comfortable. I recommendmaking a reservation prior to going because they are usually pretty booked and parking is where you can find it in the area. Wewere there to celebrate birthday?s and they provided a complimentary dessert of a brownie and cinnamon ice cream which was alsovery delicious. We will definitely be returning! Thank you Papi Cuisine for a great experience! Read more
From start to finish, a beautiful experience! We didn?t have a reservation but they got us in,in less than 5 minutes. The... ambiance is amazing and it?s giving black excellence and very exquisite dining! The service was superb. Very patient with us asit was our first time. Clean atmosphere. Good music,good vibes were everywhere. A couple sitting next to us was so friendly too.The prices were just right for this level of quality! Drinks were perfect as well. We will be back whenever we visit again.Thank you for setting the bar and truly delivering way beyond our expectations. Read more
Upon arriving we were pleasantly greeted by the hostess at the door. They were able to seat our party of four. I would suggest... making a reservation before going. Our waitress was very informative about specials and items on the menu. Once we placed ourorder our food was at our table and less than 10 minutes! The atmosphere was amazing the food was spectacular and I look forwardto returning very soon. We drove all the way from Richmond Virginia and Papi Cuisine did not disappoint! Read more
Came on a day trip to Baltimore and visited this establishment at the advice of some friends. We arrived 15 minutes into their... 12pm Open (making a reservation via open table they had a 11:45 slot somehow) anyway we didn't make a reservation so we wereadvised we had to go to the bar. It was only 3 other couples in there at the time so there were plenty of tables available.STILL we had to go to the bar. After sitting for about 15 minutes, the server from the main dining section came and brought uswater. She then advised that she couldn't take our orders and we had to wait on the one bartender who was now serving about 4-5people directly sitting at the bar. Another 5 minutes went by and we placed our food and drink orders. Everything came outquickly. However because it took so long to order we were still eating appetizers when main course showed up so our table waspretty full. They should time the deliveries a little better. Everything tasted good. The bill arrived with 20% gratuity on it.Which was weird because thats normally only automatic with parties of 6 or More. After providing my card the new receiptrequested additional gratuity. Make sure you review bill. I gave it a 4 star because service quality overall but food is good.Just either make reservations or know you will be at bar with one person. Read more
We visited today. The environment was very nice: urban music and upscale setting. Patrons who did not have a reservation, were... told that their wait could be more than hour. Those of us with reservations had to wait about 15-20 minutes before beingseated. There were also small tables in the bar area. The waiting area at the door was too small for all of the people crammedin it. Parking is on the street, and there is a parking garage nearby. The service was awesome! My co-worker was satisfied withher french toast and sausage. My Crab Egg Rolls were good, but my last two were stale at the tips, and I wish that it hadincluded dipping sauce. The Lobster Mac & Cheese was good too. My pineapple drink was good, but I think $45 is too expensive,and it doesn't come with any pineapple (I had to request it). They core the pineapple really well too, so it is literally justa fancy glass because they take all of the pineapple out. Finally, every bill was automatically charged a 20% "Service Charge"(which I hope patrons know that they are NOT required to pay. Then, upon scanning the QR Code to pay the bill online, another20% in gratuity is requested, which we did not pay. It's a nice place, upbeat, clean, but watch your bill. Most of the food isat least $20 per item, even dessert, and expecting people to tip 40% per bill is too much. Read more
Fast service! Bright lighten, low key spot on the south side of Baltimore, very upbeat environment pleasant servers bar and... dine in section. I book the day before it's best because this cuisine is busy. Food was delicious. Chefs is on point withflavors. I got their signature fried crab egg rolls to start tasty you wouldn't be disappointed. Our main entree was the lambchop side of mac with kale. Pretty great. Also an order of seafood alfredo. Don't look for a whole lobster as it is just thesmallest Oz serve. Oh yeah automatically 20% gratuity is added. For the two entree and crab roll and glass of sprite $120.00. Iwill back to try their drinks and other dishes. Read more
My family treated me for my birthday and the service was quick and accurate. I can?t remember our waiters name but she was... attentive and kept our glasses refilled throughout the night without hunting her down. My husband loved his lamb chop surf andturf and said it was cooked to perfection. The stuffed salmon and Mac and cheese was bomb and the crab cake egg rolls?.well Icould have ate a whole plate of them by myself. I?ll definitely be returning. Read more
I have heard good things about Papi Cuisine, so when I received a text with happy hour offerings I decided to do a carry out... order. I was able to order and pay online and choose to pick up at a time of my choosing or the time they offered to have myorder ready. I chose for when they could have my order ready. The order was actually ready about 10 minutes early. When Iarrived at the restaurant there was no place to park but there were a few cars double parked, so I double parked as well. Theplace was packed, but I was able to work my way through the crowd, grab my food from the bar and get out within two minutes. Ihad to heat up my food (crab eggrolls and chicken wings) was very tasty. Read more
