If any of these spark your interest, or you’re curious about the market in general, our partner Susan Carroll is here to help with buying, selling, or answering your real estate questions.

Date Spot Of The Week

Kona Grill (Inner Harbor)

📍 1 E Pratt St #103, Baltimore, MD 21202

This week’s date spot takes us to Kona Grill, a sleek, energetic dining destination right in the heart of the Inner Harbor that’s perfect for couples who want a lively, modern night out. With its stylish interior, upbeat atmosphere, and prime waterfront-adjacent location, Kona Grill feels polished and fun — ideal for date nights that lean more “night on the town” than quiet and cozy.

Start with cocktails or a glass of wine and share a few small plates like sushi rolls, potstickers, or edamame to kick things off. The menu makes it easy to mix and match, whether you’re in the mood for fresh seafood, Asian-inspired dishes, or heartier entrées like steaks and bowls. The vibe is social and buzz-worthy without being overwhelming, making it a great choice for conversation, people-watching, and easing into the rest of your evening downtown.

Thanks for reading Eating Baltimore today - Merry Christmas!

Have a great weekend!
