We ❤️ the BMA! Anytime we have friends or family visiting, it’s a must-see on our Baltimore experiences list. You could spend hours in here admiring the world’s largest collection of Matisse, the highlighting of local artists, or the ancient artifacts. Not to mention, it’s FREE!

Splendid. I was super happy with Salman Toor exhibit @ Baltimore Museum of Art. This hidden gem museum displays an amazing variety of beautiful Art. I plan to visit again for John waters collection next month. Please don’t forget to have a nice meal at Gertrude’s at the lobby garden. Kiss, Olan

Is there a nice restaurant inside the museum?

Allen Weisinger | Sep 26, 2018
William Nerenberg | Sep 26, 2018

Local Guide Bellamy is obviously wrong. There has been a good restaurant at the BMA for more than 25 years. First came Donna's, and she's got two other Baltimore spots that are both doing well. Gertrude's took over the space about 20 years ago. They feature Chesapeake seafood including rockfish (very similar to seabass), marvelous crabcakes in many forms, and good vegetarian items as well. I highly recommend this restaurant. Chef John Shields is one of Baltimore's finest..
