12 Great Hidden Restaurants Across America - The Infatuation

"The first few times we tried Le Comptoir Du Vin in Baltimore, we kept missing the front door. As you walk up the stairs and into a tiny foyer, it feels like you're about to walk into someone's apartment rather than a restaurant. But once inside, you’ll find a low-lit French spot that’s good for a special occasion or just a weeknight dinner of small plates with a date. The chalkboard menu changes regularly, and one of our favorite pastimes is checking the restaurant’s Instagram story for updates and intel about upcoming live music nights on their back patio. For dinner, order anything with the focaccia—we consistently dream of the jamon buerre—and save room for dessert." - anne cruz
