Pisces
The gorgeous view hasn't changed, but the menu has certainly been updated. Pisces at the Hyatt Regency Baltimore overlooks the Baltimore Harbor allowing guests to view all the amazing renovations to our fabulous city.

On a recent Saturday night, we boarded the glass elevator for the ride to the top of the Hyatt. Greeted by Manager William Rush we immediately noticed a change in the atmosphere of Pisces. Pisces seemed more upscale and sophisticated since our last visit and the menu reflects this observation.  The prices for entrees ranged from $27-$38 with side dishes such as creamed spinach and garlic mashed potatoes available for  $7. Our server, Matthew, was excellent. He
was very knowledgeable and  professional, as one should be in a fine dining restaurant.  The new Martini Menu features 20 martinis from the Peppermint Patty to my favorite the Flirtini, featuring Ketel One Vodka, Champagne and Grapefruit Juice, all priced at $9. I began with the Mixed Green salad, featuring assorted greens, pears, candied walnuts and gorgonzola cheese with a raspberry vinaigrette, it was delicious.  

Chef Gerard Campbell created a menu filled with filled with seafood, meat and chicken entrees in creative, unique sauces. My husband enjoyed the Whole Red Snapper, filleted tableside, served
with pancetta, plum tomatoes and basil.  At Matthew's suggestion, I ordered the New Zealand Blue Nose Sea Bass. Served over a potato crouton and spinach in a lobster and Vermont butter sauce, it was moist and enjoyable, although a tad less of the rich sauce would have made it even better.  

We enjoyed a bottle of Steele Pinot Noir with dinner, an  excellent accompaniment to our meal. The wine list features several fine  selections reasonably priced. Save room for dessert, the Chocolate Bombe  with coconut ice cream and a port syrup drizzle, is perfect for sharing. The next time you want a special evening, filled with fine food, drinks and service,  head to Pisces, you won't be
disappointed.   Champagne brunch is offered  every Sunday, the beautiful view is always
complimentary.
