The photo was taken at the Eager House Restaurant at the Emerson Hotel.
The Emerson Hotel, Corner of Baltimore & Chase Streets
The storied Emerson was built in 1911, closed in 1969, and demolished in 1971. Here is a must read memory about the hotel and the Eager House Restaurant.
Late in its life, the Emerson Hotel had a Tiki Bar called the Hawaiian Room. Here's the menu:

The best backgrounder on the hotel appears in Baltimore Style Magazine (January-February 2011). Here is the link to Mary K Zajak's article.
No question: It's Haussner's. Thanks Mad Men!
