Went there last night, sat on the deck,and dined al fresco. We are so fortunate to have such a quality restaurant in Towson. It's always wonderful!

I enjoy a restaurant that, of course, has excellent food. My second criteria is a good wine list. My third, and almost as important to me, the restaurant has to have quiet, tasteful ambience. If you toss in a highly professional wait staff you have pure perfection - Cafe Troia in a nutshell.
