A Walk Through Little Italy: 70 Years of Hand-Rolled Pasta, Osso Buco & Cannoli

Tucked between the glittering glass towers of Harbor East and the salty sea breezes of Fells Point lies Baltimore's Little Italy. For over a century, this tight-knit enclave has retained its warm European character, open bocce courts, and multi-generational trattorias.

Dessert is Not Optional

No stroll through Little Italy is complete without a stop at Vaccaro's for handmade cannoli filled fresh while you wait, dusted in snow-white powdered sugar alongside a double espresso.
