Neighborhood guide: Pikesville

Often defined by its concentration of Jewish residents, Pikesville's main drag, Reisterstown Road, is dense with restaurants and retail establishments. Tov Pizza's kosher pies are a mitzvah, but Suburban House creates traditional dishes, like matzoh ball soup. Other Pikesville institutions include Jilly's, an old-time bar full of regulars, and The Pikes, a movie theater turned eatery.
