Inner Harbor Sept. 16th
Will be there overnight to attend Jets/Ravens game on Sunday. We've never been there before; would like to sight see and eat--probably two lunches and one dinner. Nothing fancy. We will have a car. Suggestions? Thanks!

In Fells Point (just east of the Harbor) there are many options and it is a great place to walk around and sight see on the water. I'd recommend Red Star (http://www.redstarrestaurant.net/) and The Waterfront (http://www.waterfronthotel.us/) for lunch spots. They are bar/restaurants but with regular pub fare + more inventive dishes at decent prices.
For dinner, I'd stay away from the Inner Harbor area itself for any kind of dining - it's mostly chains. Most people here do not recommend Little Italy but it is a neat place to walk around and if you're looking for decent food that is not pricey, I like Amicci's (www.amiccis.com). If you are into giant italian desserts, Vaccaro's is right around the corner from there (http://www.vaccarospastry.com/). I have recently been to Henninger's Tavern (Fells Point but not on the water) and it is excellent and not too pricey: http://www.henningerstavern.com/main.php?page=dinner. If you're looking for an interesting menu in a casual atmosphere for dinner I'd recommend Jack's Bistro in Canton (east of the Harbor): http://www.jacksbistro.net/
Federal Hill is another neighborhood right next to the Harbor and there is a lengthy thread about options there: http://www.chowhound.com/topics/433284 (called "DC Hound just moved to Baltimore (Fed Hill) Questions)). There is also a thread called Baltimore's Best Bar Food if that interests you : http://www.chowhound.com/topics/426118
Hope that helps!
