    A great vibe, as always, and the collaboration on this date with Senior Services of N Baltimore was much appreciated. We had the red crab soup, a seafood salad, the berry salad and a seafood linguine from the special offer menu. We appreciate the selection of wines and the half price offer on Wednesdays! Very helpful and friendly service, as always at Gertrude’s!
