Frommer's Review

Walk down the stairs into whitewashed rooms that resemble a wine cellar. Spanish artwork, wrought iron, and pottery decorate the tiny dining rooms that seem to go on and on. Start with the fruity sangria. The menu's highlights include shrimp in garlic sauce, sole with bananas and hollandaise sauce, and dramatic paella. Dessert is a standout: Try the flan, the chocolate soufflé, or the roll cakes. Tío Pepe is a special-occasion restaurant for Baltimoreans, so reservations are a must.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
