Prima Dopo Cucina & Cocktail House — Restaurant in Baltimore

ALL THE VIBES. We wandered in on a wintry cold day and the exterior is so unassuming that you feel like you're being transported to a warm, bustling, chic, European cucina the minute you step foot inside. If you're familiar with hot spot favorites like El Bufalo or Raw & Refined, you'll recognize many of the staff... except they seem less haggard than usual and everyone comes off attractive and sleek. Maybe it was the decor, ambiance, or polished staff but this new addition to the restaurant family is an elevated experience for the senses.

Highlights: Bar area has TVs so you can have a date night or night out with friends without missing the game Ambiance and decor is the definition of Instagrammable. Every nook and cranny contains different camera ready elements & backdrops that it's almost like multiple venues in one. Eat your content creation heart out. We came during the soft opening so the menu was limited but the flavor was not! The toast, cocktails, and meatballs are not to be missed. Highly recommend trying these! We also ordered the calamari but could've gone without it. Did I mention how beautiful the entire staff was or how the people watching was top-notch? It was like walking onto the set of "The Real World: Inner Harbor" Service was excellent and attentive. The exterior does no justice for the interior. It's like wandering down the rabbit hole into a whimsical space that is surprisingly large, deep and houses multiple rooms. Great place to take guests, clients, friends or that special interest if you're looking to impress.

Come for the food & drinks, stay for the IT factor! A welcome addition to Fells Point. Can't wait for...

We looked online for a Saturday night dinner. Found this place 4 stars or greater. Got there, no hostess. When they did arrive, we made them aware we had reservations. They asked if a Hightop was ok, asked of that was the only option they stated yes. Ok, no problem. Waited 20 or more minutes for the waitress. She came over, took our drink order, and left. Came back with water and our drinks. Spilled my prosecco on the table barely wiped it up. Hubby had to snag some bar napkins. Then she comes to take our order she coughing with every word, she says I have something in my throught. I have OCD like behavior, so I was ready at this point. Hubby wanted to stay, so we ordered two appetizers and two entrees. The appetizers came out no flatware. Had to ask a random person for silverware and napkins. The food came out no problem, we had to order drinks at the bar because the waiter was MIA. We ate, had to flag her again for the check. And ordered red velvet cake. Total came out to $188.00, not including tip. We cleared out the check and waited for the cake ordered to go because it's was like a club at this point! Chaser the waitress down at the bar serving drinks, and when I called her if looks could kill, I'd be dead. If funny because 2 days later, I tested positive for covid (after she coughed all over us while taking our order) anywho, I'd never go back to this place. I guess whoever is rating this place 4.5 stars were paid or intoxicated. One way in the shoe box is decorated nicely, but no. Never again. Maybe for young kids that want drinks and...

Visited here for the first time, excitedly, almost 2 weeks ago. I bought a drink at the bar and left a tip appropriate for the service I received. The bartender himself was pretty rude to me, to say the least. The next day, I was alerted by my bank that an additional 42% tip was added on top of the written total, which already included tip. I reached out to the location after sorting it with my bank to notify them of this unsettling discovery. I spoke to someone at the front desk who stated, “he’s usually a good guy. Maybe he entered in the wrong tip amount, I don’t think he stole it”. I corrected him by indicating that the total including what tip he was receiving was already added and written out for him. He made a choice to attach an ADDITIONAL 42% that I did not authorize, for himself. I asked if this is something that he would do, to which he replied, “personally, I wouldn’t. I understand how that isn’t okay”. I left my information for my manger to at the very least discuss what happened as this is truly alarming. It was my first time visiting and I had my sights set at the time to return, but not after this. The manger couldn’t even bother to reach back out to me regarding this issue. My bank refunded the difference back for what was added without my permission after seeing it wasn’t the original authorized amount that was approved the night before. I don’t know if this was truly an “accident” or deliberate, as my card was ran again for the additional tip. What I do know is that no one reached out to acknowledge this at least. Either way, I won’t...
