Di Pasquale's Marketplace

It was busy and crowded on the weekends, but if you were ordering food to go, then the wait was like 15 to 20 minutes to get your food and longer for a table. I liked the meatball sandwich the best. The cold cut sandwich was ok. It's a great place to get all your Italian specialty items that aren't in stores.

This is one of our favorite restaurants in Baltimore and we usually eat here once or twice a month on Saturday. It can be very busy but we never mind waiting for a table. It is all worth the wait since the food is so good. Today, three of us had lunch here. The spicy lentil soup, the wedding soup, pasta with clams, old Italian world sandwich, seafood salad and other specialties made there were just delicious. Make sure to leave room for dessert. The cannolis, gelatos and other treats are so tasty.

My first visit to the market. It’s an Italian dream! We decided to eat there and are so glad we did, we decided to try a few things. The lasagna was exquisite, just no other way to put it, I have never had better. The seafood salad delightful, cold and reminded me of Europe! The Arancini is killer!!! Omg really. Get ready for one heck of a meal!! I’ll be going back to work my way through the menu!! And service a total wow as well. Mani was superb!!

Really the best place around to shop for a huge variety of Italian products and also grab a great bite to eat. Sometimes can be a bit crowded but the outdoor seating really helps on good weather days. Also, always have a good selection of discounted wines/liquors. Definitely recommend stopping in.

Amazing sandwiches, deli items, drinks, desserts, etc. Fun to just walk around and see all the stuff they have!

Amazing!! A phenomenal lunch...loved every bite! Took home some delicious Italian cookies and lemon marcarpone cake. Never tasted anything like it - so so good!

An absolute favorite in Baltimore. Not only can you sit down and eat, you can also shop for your favorite ingredients or baked goods. A must try!!!

The food was delicious and served hot. We had the wedding soup and the old Italian and the porketta. They have so many different options including vegetarian choices. Visit the market for all things Italian and a bakery with homemade sweet treats.

Delicious porchetta sandwich! Succulent meat, bitter rapini and provolone on a perfect roll.

Great place, food and service , will be back soon, awesome The best Italian restaurant in Baltimore

Picked up takeout from here and even thought jt was PACKED, they got our subs out so fast!! Huge sub for $12 and so fresh! Pictured: the calabrese

Might be the finest Dining Establishment in all of Baltimore. Impressive array of choices, Spectacular food, while still retaining the family-owned ambience. No other place quite like it. Period.

Di Pasquale's has my favorite sandwich in Baltimore so far. The Real Italian is everything I love about a sandwich-- a good balance of all flavors and generous portions too! The cheese curds were recommended to us and did not disappoint-- so great and so fresh! This was also my first time having a Zeppolone Di Frutta, definitely great for sharing! Overall the market was great, with an option for casual seating or a more sit down restaurant style off the side. All the workers we encountered were also kind and offered recommendations when we weren't sure what to get!

I'm in the area for work and asked my coworker where I could get a good sandwich. Without hesitation, she said Di Pasquale's. I got the Real Italian and was super impressed by the amount of meat that came in the sandwich. It was tasty with just the right amount of spice. While they were making my sandwich, I walked around the store to find something to drink, and also ended up picking up a package of super yummy pistachio cream butter cookies. Now I'm stuffed, but very happy! If you're in the Canton neighborhood, definitely stop in to either have a sit down meal or to grab something to go.

Amazing Italian restaurant and market. We ordered lunch here and it was BUSY but we were able to snag a table right away. The inside was a little overwhelming with how crowded and busy it was, but clearly it was for a reason. The pizza and sandwich were spot on, and browsing the market was a blast. They had great and interesting products. All the fresh pasta and sauces looked amazing. We will definitely be back to purchase some food to go in the future!!

This place is awesome for authentic Italian cuisine. I am so pleased that I found this place so close to my work.

This place is so nice ... came here for lunch. So happy to see an Italian deli/restaurant since we don't see these near Rockville, nearly as much as we did back in NY/NJ. Anyway, we had two sandwiches, the porchetta and the veal with onions and peppers. Both were delicious, the bread was so fresh and they were pretty big. Our waitress and other staff were really nice and helpful too. We were so happy to see zeppoles on the menu and bought 2 with Nutella and one original. They were huge but unfortunately they were nothing like the zeppoles we remembered throughout our youth and they were just okay. However, we love the vibe of the place and would definitely eat here again if in the area.

Pizza had a good chew to the crust but honestly, lacked sauce and flavor. Tony Rubino is always packed with layers of flavor. Service is always pretty decent.

HEY !! BE CAREFUL! TAKE A DEEP BREATH! YOU'RE IN A 110 YEARS OLD BUSINESS!!!! In 1914, an 18 year old Luigi Di Pasquale Sr. opened a corner grocer in Highlandtown Baltimore MD, and you know what? I was lucky enough to go to that location! On May 1st, 2021 , they moved to Brewers Hill to write a new chapter of history, and finally, last week, I was able to go and visit! Wow! Now the history, the 110 years of experience, and with a great design, Di Pasquale is an Italian heaven that helps all the DMV & Baltimore people to live their Italian dream! Unless you're inside the store now while reading my review, nothing will make sense to you! Joe DiPasquale, the owner, was waiting outside the door, watching and warning everyone to pay the parking meter if they were staying and warning everyone if the towing truck was coming! Lol, that really showed me care! This guy is genuine!! He could've let any worker do that for him! But he was greeting everyone and with love taking care of us and making sure no one got ticketed or got their vehicle towed away! There are 2 styles to dine in here! To actually be seated like in a restaurant, a waitress will help you, and you eat your food in porcelain plates and metal silverware, and you can get alcohol or you take your food to go and there are 3 tables inside and a few outdoor ( the outdoor tables are like a picnic style table bench) . The MENU IS HUGE! the deli style refrigerator display has endless choices of food you can get! They know it's a lot, and that's why they have the choose 3 combo ( ask about it when you get there and look at my choices in the photos ) I also ordered 2 hot subs , the iconic Lamborghini, and the real deal veal ! I got a Tiramisu and 3 mini cannolis ! Pistachio, mocha, and traditional! Thank God I had my cousin with me to share. Otherwise, I would've been to a food coma ! But you know what?? I didn't feel tired after eating their food! Clean ingredients ;) Every single item was good!! Everything was tasty! Yummy! There are a lot of items to go back and try! Things I have no idea about, and it might take me years to explore, lol. After I was done , I shopped at the market and bought an Italian type of cookie bag that I suspected it looks like something my grandma ( we're Coptic Egyptians) used to make from milk cream and this one was made from milk cream too! And the same shape!! I got excited and got two bags! Oh my goodness! It's the same!! ( A lot of the Coptic "native Egyptian " food is shared between Greeks and Italians) Try it, vote for the review , message me, or compliment me with any comment or question, and don't forget to ... Pray for me ;)

Our second visit to Dispaquales was as great as our first. We arrived at the right time and were seated quickly. It took some time to get waited on but once we did he was on point. It got very busy after we were seated so it is understandable. I had the Santino and it was great with fresh mozzarella and prosciutto. The only criticism would be more basil as it was a little sparse. After eating we tried to maneuver around the market but the amount of people hanging around made it difficult but we were able to get some items to take home but would have spent more if we had felt less rushed.

I've heard some good things about Di Pasquale's and I just came to check it out with a friend for an early dinner. The store itself was quite busy with shoppers shopping. It's a packed market but pretty cool they sell groceries, liquor and have a dining area with indoor and outdoor seats. It was hot out so we sat inside. The staff were busy but quite friendly. We ordered their Prosciutto & Arugula white pizza and a large Italian sub to share. The sub was packed full of meat and was so good! I enjoyed the drizzle of balsamic glaze on the pizza which wasn't overwhelming. Portion sizes were quite large and definitely filling. Lots of carbs for our meal but the ingredients were all fresh and plentiful. I'm definitely interested in checking this place out for grocery shopping and to dine again!

I came here for lasagna. I had a very specific date night planned so that is all i tried. I chose this place because they have a veggie and an eggplant lasagna and not just meat lasagna. I did not care for the veggie lasagna. It had too much cheese, and I felt like I could not taste the layers of pasta like I should. My wife had no complaints about her meat lasagna, but she didn't rave about it either. The service was excellent. Our server was helpful and friendly! Another guest told us the pizza is everything! So I will be back to try some pizza on another visit. ** you do have to pay to park outside of the restaurant, so be mindful**

Unique experience, get your order in for a sandwich and then shop around! Lots of options! The service was speedy and the vibe was authentic

I'm glad I got to see their original location in Highland town - this spot in Brewer's Hill is modern and always, always bustling. I'm a fan of their sandwhiches - I never order the same thing but here I seem to always get their original. There is a satellite location in Locust Point by the port. There are tables and one Sunday I saw a bunch of families for brunch. From pastas to prepared foods to wine - Di Pasquale does have a lot of offerings. It's a boutique type market so it's not super cheap and you can't do all your shopping here, but I come to get a little taste of American Italian goodness. I've heard they have amazing pizzas, so will be trying that at some point, but if you're craving a deli meat sandwich, this is your spot! A tip for first timers, it can be overwhelming, so get a menu, take your time and then order at the counter. You will have to wait to get your food, then you go to the checkout on the right back side of the store to pay.

$10 Corkage fee on your marked up wine? (Brewers Hill). Bad decision. A $10 corkage fee doesn't quite fit the ambiance. Taking my stuff home and will drink my own wine.

My experiences at DiPasquale's have been mixed. The first time I ordered for a team and everyone was happy with their food. The next time I ordered the same thing for myself - the Roast Beast - and the actual roast beef was dryer than any I'd ever had. My first in-person meal was fine, if nondescript, though the instructions on where to sit could be clearer. This most recent time, I ordered the muffuletta. It was fine, not great, and was definitely NOT a muffuletta. The ingredients were mostly there, but the all-important olives were completely absent. So if you're looking for an authentic muffuletta, look elsewhere.

They have a comprehensive selection of delicacies and the city's best, in my opinion, eggplant parm sandwich. Wash it down with a beer, wine or soda on a sunny day while eating on the patio. P.S. They are dog and kid friendly.

My favorite thing about this place is its convenience. There aren't too many places close to the apartments here that sell alcohol so I find myself running down here to get a bottle of wine from time to time. The space itself is like a market with seating and tables on the side as well. I mostly just purchase to-go and folks are pretty pleasant so I appreciate the service. The food itself is okay. The pizza felt tough to eat their meatballs and arancini are just okay.

As a devoted lover of Italian cuisine, discovering this gem was exciting! From the moment I sat down, the service was fantastic. The cozy interior adds to the charm, though it's worth noting that the space is best suited for smaller groups--I'd recommend keeping it to 5-6 people max if you're planning to dine in. I also love the flexibility of grabbing takeout or stopping by in the morning for a coffee. This spot is a 10/10 for me, and I'm already looking forward to returning--not just for another meal, but also to pick up some pasta to cook at home.

BLUF: Holy moly! That's a lot of meatballs! Ordering two large sandwiches, meatball and real Italian, we were completely unaware of Di Pasquale's large. Needless to say, we shared the meatball sub and are only half of the tiramisu. The bread for the meatball sub is hollowed out and jammed pack full of meatballs and mozzarella and sauce. Then toasted for the crisp exterior. The bready interior they pulled out is nestled at the opening of the sandwich taking in the overflowing sauce and cheese. Beautiful store overall. Plenty of seating indoors and out. We appreciated the large, self-serve jug of water outside seemingly for anyone who needs water. It is very thoughtful. If you're passing through Baltimore, this is a detour worthy stop. There's a supercharger behind the nearby Harris Teeter, a short walk away.

We bought the vegetable lasagna and the gluten free eggplant lasagna and BOY are these AMAZING!!!!! I highly recommend. You can order (several days ahead!) and thwn reheat at home!!! It's also a great Italian Marketplace .... Quite a store!!! Enjoy!

I've been wanting to come to DiPasquale's since I saw Guy fieri on triple D years back. It's been on my list when I get to Baltimore. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! The market is absolute perfection! Seeing italian brands I can't find in chain supermarkets. The prosciutto is tender, fresh, and so flavorful I can still taste it on my sub with mozzarella. Highly recommend any of the salads - shell pasta was my fav! Next time I'm going to eat in, this trip was to go. Buon appetito!

How can you not absolutely love this place?! Or at least find SOMETHING that you love in here? There are so many gems in here, from freshly made food (like pastas, pizzas, sandwiches) that you can take to go, alcohol, meats and cheeses, gelato, and dry goods/grocery items (crackers, cookies, etc.). My one wish is that their to-go section would have more gluten free options (like a sandwich on gluten free bread), but not enough to lower my rating. Still love this place!

Such a cool place the market is amazing the staff is friendly, you will feel like you walked into Italy when you come through the door. I had the Santino and it was amazing, such fresh ingredients and the bread was so soft and still warm. If I come back to Baltimore I'm definitely hitting this spot

Stopped by for lunch on a Tuesday and decided to eat in. You can order to go pizza or sandwiches at the counter directly in front of the door when you enter or sweets to the right of the door. If you want to eat in, head to the right where the wait to be seated sign is. We were quickly seated and for lunch ordered fried cheese curds, a meatball, and a Margherita pizza. The cheese curds were perfectly crisp and we had some nice cheese pulls. The side marinara was perfect. The meatball was flavorful and the pizza was delicious! We took half the pizza home and had cannoli for dessert. I'm not sure I've had such a crisp and well made cannoli before. The pistachio wasn't overwhelming but still a very tasty way to end the meal. It's amazing how much is in this location, Italian groceries, wines, and tables for a restaurant. It's a little crammed, though fun to walk through. There's some outdoor seating and the indoor seating is next to massive windows looking out on the street. Can't wait to go back and try different items next time!

For years I've heard people talk about corn beef sandwiches and "Rueben's", but I'd never had one since I rarely ever eat red meat. I decided I'd finally try one and see what all the hype was about. I placed my order on their site and headed that way. When I arrived I was immediately greeted by one guy and then a nice lady asked my name for my order. Everything was bagged in ready to go. I ordered the "Tony Ruebino" and the truffle fries. The sandwich looked good, but I had no idea what to expect. Soon as I took a bite, I was pleasantly surprised! It was very good! I'd definitely have this again

As soon as you walk in you know you're going to have a great experience. The smell and aroma alone is unbelievable. There's an unbelievable amount of choices, from a full Italian market, fresh produce, fresh bakery, butcher block, the choices are endless. The unbelievable service just topped our experience.

I enjoy this place, very authentic items and great flavor meals and always friendly service. Found some great gems here!

Used to go to Di Pasquale's several times when we lived in Fedhill and sadly haven't been back since we moved out the city so it's nice to have one close by on the outskirts of Canton! This location like others, has a marketplace and a sit down area that you can order and dine-in. They have a large menu comprised of pizzas, subs, desserts, and appetizers. All relatively decently priced! You can also choose to grab things at the counter if you don't want to order dine-in. We got the old italian sub, tuna diavolo, a Briella Piccante pizza, pistachio gelato, and fried dough w/ Nutella. The tuna diavolo is one we have never had before and it's like tuna salad but instead of mayo it's dressed with red oil based w/ cherry peppers and balsamic! It was amazing, with the balance of the tuna with the tart of the cherry peppers and balsamic paired with the soft bread! The pizza was also good except, the sauce made it so soft and floppy because the crust was so thin but nonetheless the flavor was there! The gelato was all-star however because I love pistachio anything and unlike others I have had, this one did not have the chemical after taste and not super green w/ bits of pistachio mixed in! Paired very nicely with the fried dough dessert. There was one server and she was excellent, prompt and made sure she got everything out in a timely manner. There was one customer giving her some trouble and watching her handle that situation was great! She remained calm and was able to resolve it to the best of her ability! Shoutout to her!! If you're in the Fedhill or the canton area, come check them out! Even if you don't get food here (idk why you would not) they do offer a great deal of Italian grocery items.

Top quality Italian food and my go to spot when I'm in Bmore. Food is fresh, and hard to find Italian items I need for authentic dishes are readily available.

Fresh, delicious & amazing food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The staff is also amazing!! From the guys that take your orders to the staff in the dining area 5 star customer service!! Ever time I'm in Baltimore I make sure to have a cheese steak and truffle fries!!

I was a huge fan of the original location of Highland town. I'll be honest I was a little sad when it closed. This new location is wonderful, but it just doesn't have the same old school feel. The food is delicious, as always, and it is similar to the menu at the other location. Packaged goods are expensive, but high-quality. I recommend you try the meatball sub, but really any of them are delicious. The pasta dishes are pretty decent as well, but the subs are where they shine.

Best Italian deli in Baltimore. Almost every sub is great. I continue to order the Cubanella. I love baked ziti, chicken lasagna, and shrimp scampi. A true old school deli. The price is decent for the portion and certainly the quality of the food.

Their sandwiches are amazing. So much varieties to choose from. Will definitely be back soon to try others on the menu. Highly recommend!

This is a solid Italian grocery store, and even better spot for a quick bite! I enjoy their sandwiches, subs, and pizzas. The real Italian and meatball subs are two robust options that I enjoy here. Besides that, they also have decent soups and sides. This location does get busy, so I'd highly recommend ordering online to be able to pick it up immediately unless you were looking for a true dine-in experience.

Di Pasquale's is a family-owned authentic Italian grocer and sandwich joint, making our list of favorites in Baltimore. This delicatessen has served Baltimore since 1914 and was originally located in the Highlandtown neighborhood, where local gastronomy echoes the diversity of residents and 20th-century immigrant history. European immigrants originally settled in Highlandtown and neighboring Greektown, which today is the home of a growing Latino population. In 2020, Di Pasquale's relocated to the Canton neighborhood. Our top sandwiches are the "Real Italian"--boasting fatty cold cuts, crunchy veggies, mild hots, and drizzled in spiced olive oil and the "Truffle Cheesesteak"--a luxurious concoction of thinly sliced steak, sautéed mushrooms, and onions, melted truffle cheese, and arugula--sensational! Share a side of the spicy shrimp salad--the best I've had. Seating is first-come-first-served but turns over quickly. While you wait, shop for specialty cheeses, fresh sauces, handmade pasta, and grab dessert from the pastry chef. The food and atmosphere are exceptional.

So I get a lot of people that ask me where I think the best kind of a certain type of food I have ever eaten. In this case, I have been asked where is the best Italian food in Baltimore is and this is the place. I know my friends in Little Italy are getting mad right now, but I like the freshness of the food at Di Pasquale's Marketplace. Please eat at the original stop it is by far the best of the best. I constantly cave the Arancini Balls, and usually buy as many as I can carry. I have never had a bad meal here and the staff are so friendly. It is in a local hood and the feel of the place is old school. You might have a hard time parking but, the food and ambiance is worth a littel walk.

I work 2 blocks away from this place. This is probably my favorite place in this area. The amount of money I spend here is literally crazy... the product is very fresh, the food is amazing, the service workers, the location, the style, everything about this place makes me always want to return.

What can I say about this place besides divine? This Italian marketplace is so quaint and the food is fresh and delicious! My family and I got the Philly cheesesteak and the Roma pizza. So good. I was speechless at how delicious and high quality the sandwich was. It was nothing short of perfect. The pizza was hot, crispy, and gooey. Everything I want a pizza to be. It was so good! And we got a drink at the bar as well. The bartender recommend their crush cocktails. They have a menu of different crush flavors and we got the blueberry lemon mint crush. Absolutely refreshing with a great buzz! A great drink and a must-try for people who like fruity drinks! I'll definitely come back!

Was my very first time trying this place and can't believe I didn't come here sooner. We went on a Saturday at around noon after being at Bark social and I was so excited the second I saw they had a cute Aperol Spritz cart outside. We immediately got some drinks and went in and ordered a sub and a wrap! I also got this Italian pasta salad that was sooo fresh. I can't wait to come back here. Not only is this place great for to go food but they have fresh ingredients perfect for making pasta or a charcuterie night. They also have fresh pizza in the back and a great selection of wine. Was pleasantly overwhelmed by this place and seriously I can't wait to be back.

Eccellente!!! What a great recommendation in the Baltimore area. An amazing marketplace filled with Italian delicacies. The pizza, sauce and pasta was on point actually the best that I've had in the area. There's so many options, I was acting like a kid in a candy store. This place is a must if you love all things Italian. Unfortunately I was enjoying all the options I failed to take pictures. I can't wait to go back!

Large Italian ColdCut is ON POINT. Man I want one right now Everything, light Hots Add Mayo

We really enjoyed lunch here! We ordered: The Real Italian sub -- my dad loves it. Was only going to eat half but ate the whole thing Chicken Parm sub -- good, liked the amount of cheese and the chicken was thin which is how I like it Truffle cheese steak -- really delicious, great proportions of all the fillings The bread all the sandwiches were on was very good... I think they called it the crusty bread. I would happily go back to try other sandwiches. They are packed at lunch time, so prepare. The seating area had only one waitress who was super kind and good at her job, but I felt bad that she had the entire section (about 10 tables) all by herself! The store itself is great. Wonderful precooked meals, desserts, and fresh pastas to buy. They have my favorite brand of marinated veggies that I use in my antipasto which are VERY difficult to find in the grocery stores. Excited to come back again soon!

I've heard really good things about this place so decided to finally give it a try, but it was a little disappointing. I placed a carry out order for pickup. I was told the order would be ready in 20 min, we got there 25 minutes later and still had to wait another 10-15 min for our order to be ready. They were busy so I understood, but they should have given a longer quote time over the phone. I had the chicken Parmesan with spaghetti that I really enjoyed. It was cooked perfectly and was a good portion size! My boyfriend had the veal Parmesan sandwich which he also really liked, but thought it could use a bit more sauce on it. We also got two orders of meatballs with cheese and they were tasty, but I was disappointed because the menu on their website said the orders come with three meatballs and we only got two with each order. The garlic bread I ordered was seasoned great but it unfortunately was too hard to eat.

I love this place. From the outside, it looks small. I mean, small. But go inside and be amazed. Are you a Doctor Who fan? This is a TARDIS. Inside you'll find fresh ingredients, tons of pasta in every shape you can imagine, high quality canned goods, cheeses, deli meats, wine, and pastries. I typically go for the sandwiches. I've tried something new each time and it's always fantastic. Service is top notch. Period.

New Location review. I was confused as I was driving to the older location and my GPS wasn't talking me there. Lol. I like the new location. It's bigger and brighter. They still have the market. I grabbed a few things. I also got a few sandwiches and was able to take a pizza home. The pizza was really good and everyone enjoyed it and the sandwiches. Cream of crab soup is still really good. And everything taste as I remember from the old location.

Got the Santino sub for lunch, and it was pretty good. A little too much prosciutto in my opinion, and I wish there was another dressing outside of the olive oil but a decent sub. I'll have to try another one in the future.
