The Helmand (Mt. Vernon)
www.helmand.com/
Afghani food, white tablecloths, but not super expensive. They do both dine-in and takeout.
Doobie's (Mt. Vernon)
www.doobys.com/
Korean inspired food. Though we've only eaten here a couple of times, we were pleasantly surprised. Should be relatively close to downtown as well.
Darbar (Fells Point)
www.baltimoredarbar.com/
Casual Indian food, one of Catherine and Matt's favorite places to get take out!
Red Star (Fells Point)

Cozy restaurant / bar in Fells Point.
Pitango (Fells Point)
www.pitangogelato.com/location/pitango-bakery-cafe/
Coffee shop + bakery thats right on the water. Great coffee and baked goods, with a chill vibe. One of Catherine's favorite spots.
Ekiben (Fells Point + Hampden)
www.ekibenbaltimore.com/
Asian Fusion takeout place. A personal favorite of Matt. Note there are two locations - the Fells Point one is probably closest to downtown.
Paulie Gee's (Hampden)
pauliegee.com/hampden/
Great brick-oven pizza place. They have a huge space inside, so it's a pretty good place to take kids. There is also an outside seating area as well.
Woodberry Kitchen (Hampden-ish)
www.woodberrykitchen.com/
"Farm-to-table" (new american) restuarant with great food and cool, trendy interior. They do also have outside seating on their large-ish patio. Note that unless you make a reservation a week or more in advance you probably won't get a table here.
