Basque pixtos, wines, and sidre??? Absolutely!!! And outstanding in every regard.
Great chef, and a friendly & devoted staff make every visit a genuine pleasure.

highly recommend this restaurant! the staff was knowledgeable, kind and very attentive.
food and drinks were amazing as well as the ambiance - great for a date night.
my partner and i got the shrimp planxa, black trumpet mushrooms pasta and wood grilled strip steak - all were DELICIOUS.

La Cuchara is the best restaurant in all of Baltimore because the food is like no other you will see in this city.
When I found out about this place, I was absolutely excited to visit.
I appreciate the lengths to which they tried to make the interior look like a baserri and to replicate the food that you will find at Eneperi or any restaurant in Donostia. To focus first on what sets La Cuchara apart from all others, the food.
We loved the croquetas with the perfect texture and a delicious mix of bechamel and Spanish ham.
The pintxos de Guilda tastes exactly like the ones you would find in the pintxos bars in Donostia or Bilbao.
The grilled shrimp were fresher, cooked to the perfect point, on top of bed of roasted sweet peppers.
The desserts had the right combination of tradition and unusual elements that made the experience more captivating. I loved the great selection of wines, especially txakoli and Rioja reds. This not a 5-star review because of the service.
Looks like this place has had such a huge success that it is struggling to find good staff.
Although we had a reservation, we had to wait 20 min after the reservation time to be sited.
The waiter does not manage the table or control what comes out of the kitchen.
Every single time they missed clearing the table before the next dishes arrived, and they never completely cleared the table (I really do not understand why they will take some of the dirty empty dishes but not all).
We had to ask for clean plates, and they brought us wet plates.
These are all rookie mistakes that can be easily fixed by training the staff and good management. I would love to come back in my next visit to Baltimore, but hopefully during a time that is less crowded.
