    We brought my elderly mother for a celebration lunch and everyone on the staff was just so lovely to her. The food was incredible, the portions were generous, my husband said his steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned and he is very hard to please! We will definitely be back!

    Valentine dinner, food was great, wine pairings were extremely well matched. Our server was personable and fun to interact with. Entree was a small steak and a crab cake, no one can beat John Shields when it comes to crabs. Even the sides of roast fingerling potatoes and green beans were outstanding. All in all, an extremely pleasant evening,

    Great Italian restaurant - the best in Baltimore! I took my wife here for our anniversary. I had the Fettuccine Bolognese and my wife had the Fettuccine Toscana...both were top notch dishes and the homemade pasta makes all the difference. Service was great too. Ristorante fantastico!

    Restaurant Review: Rusty Scupper – Baltimore, MD (Inner Harbor) My wife and I recently visited Rusty Scupper for the first time on Valentine’s Day, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Service & Atmosphere I had made a 7:30 PM reservation, and we arrived at 7:28 PM. After checking in at the front desk, we walked upstairs, and within 20 seconds, our name was called. The seating process was smooth and well-organized, setting the tone for the rest of the evening. Food & Drinks Due to the holiday, the restaurant had a set menu. I ordered the lobster tail, while my wife opted for the lobster tail with an added crab cake. Both dishes were cooked to perfection, and the flavors were outstanding. The drinks complemented our meal perfectly, enhancing the overall dining experience. Final Thoughts Rusty Scupper delivered excellent service, a welcoming atmosphere, and top-tier seafood. It has definitely earned a spot on my list of restaurants to return to. If you’re looking for a great waterfront dining experience in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, this place is a must-visit. Rating: 5/5 – Highly Recommended!
