Quick and fast Mediterranean cuisine. Own by a local guy that puts his heart and soul into his food. Try the shish Kabobs. They will melt in your mouth. I know this place used to get a lot of bad rep a couple of years ago, due to poor management from the previous owner and poor cooking. Well things have changed for the brighter end.

Field House

Neighborhood: Canton/Highlandtown

You might pass this place several times before you realize his is not a gym, this is not the field house of a nearby campus. I know I never paid attention to the awkwardly square building that has absolutely nothing to offer as far as aesthetics from the outside. Once you are at the door, you do realize this is an eating establishment and you do realize that there is a fairly large patio up front.
The inside is just a huge warehouse like building, that strike a certain time turns into a frat house atmosphere. Loud music and a 20 something thumping crowd. The menu is an absolute mess of American college campus classics, with a few Baltimore Classics (crab cakes). The food is nothing to write home, possibly because a couple frat kids are actually doing the cooking out back. The wine list is miserable but the booze and beer choices can make any college kid (hopefully over 21) smile. The service was friendly and fast, a little slacking on paying attention of what we really wanted...example "keep the fries" and she brought "fries". But overall the service was attentive and quick.
If I was 21 and in college; this would be my hang out place of choice. But as a foodie I would not want to be caught dead here.

My favorite Sushi place in Mt. Vernon., consistent food quality and great friendly service. The waiters are always willing to go the extra step to please the customer ( I was helped with Iphone charge yesterday). The places is ample and hip with a mix of old (from the original structure of the building ) and the new from the restoration. This place offers an array of weekly specials, from $1 sushi, to $3 martinis, etc etc. It is the only place in the city with decent Pho open in the evening hours. Yes you heard me right. Pho in the city!! The pho is ok, and it will fulfill the craving. As far as the sushi goes it is very fresh and the rice cooked perfectly. Their hot entrees are also to rave for. Their bar choices also quite expansive and it includes good choices of wines and sakes and let's not forget a well put together happy hour.
