One of the best meals I've had in Baltimore! And the service is exceptional!…read more Oleum is an upscale vegan restaurant with a large variety of menu options. Our server, Josie, went above and beyond to take care of us. She provided excellent recommendations and was super friendly and attentive! We ordered the Batata Harra, Saltat Marrakech, and the Stuffed Dates for apps. All of them were incredible, but the Saltat was so refreshing and the Dates truly stole the show. The creamy ricotta filling with red pepper sauce was to die for. For mains, we shared the Lasagna and did a half and half pizza of The Gabriel and the Toum Raider. The lasagna was super savory and very filling--perfect to share! I enjoyed both pizzas, but the Gabriel was my favorite. I loved the combo of the nutty pesto and spicy Calabrian chilis. Josie brought out a cupcake for dessert to celebrate my friend's birthday, and it was probably one of the best vegan treats I've ever had! Can't wait to come back next time I'm in town!

I had a really good time at Oleum! My daughter is allergic to eggs and peanuts so I had to call…read moreahead of time to confirm these allergies could be accommodated. I had the pleasure of speaking to Tony who not only checked himself but spoke with the chef to confirm the menu was peanut free. * Note there are peanuts used in the cocktails * it was a true pleasure to have an allergy taken seriously and made us more confident to take our daughter there. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very personal and quaint, there was a high chair available for our daughter to use. All the servers were incredibly friendly and helpful. For the food we tried the stuffed dates, miso mushroom bucatini and the toum raider pizza. The stuffed dates were recommended by our waitress and they were delicious. They were both sweet, savory and a little spicy. The walnuts that topped it were a nice touch to add texture to the already soft dates, I enjoyed it a lot. The miso mushroom bucatini was also a favorite of ours as it didn't taste vegan at all to us. It was creamy and the pasta was cooked well. My daughter enjoyed this a lot. The pizza wasn't my favorite but I'm also not a huge fan of vegan cheese so that is my fault but the miso mushroom bucatini was truly so delicious. Overall I really enjoyed the experience, the service was impeccable and I would definitely visit here again!

Highly recommend this place if you're in Baltimore whether you're vegan or not…read more Everything was so flavorful and delicious. From crab cakes, chick'n curry (not pictured), and vish sandwich the textures did a good job mimicking their counterparts. For sides, we understand why people recommend the mac & cheese.

This was also their first trial of vegan soulfood. We ordered the blueberry smoothie and the crab cakes platter, which came with two large crab cakes and two sides. I got mac and cheese thinking it'd be a kid favorite and sesame spinach. The spinach was to die for and my kiddo asked for more once finished with the side! I got the platter of spinach and almost all of it was devoured today. We will return happily!

We didn't know they closed at 10 pm so my friend and I kept chatting. I thought the waitstaff was rude as I was still drinking my water and they went to collect my cup. If you wanted us to leave, then just say so. We ordered the dumplings, Kit's special pad thai and lychee martini and my friend had 1444 tea which is basically thai tea with alcohol. The dumplings were good but aren't all dumplings good? The crispy pad thai that they called Kit's special sounded much better on paper. The noodles were so crispy that it did not absorb the sauce. There were alot of sauce at the bottom of the plate and only four pieces of shrimp and two pieces of tofu so basically you are just getting noodles and noodles are cheap. I wouldn't recommend getting this dish for $21 and you don't even get any protein. We didn't finish the dish and the waitresses didn't offer a take away container, just are you finished so she can take away the dish. I was disappointed in my dining experience. The only person who was friendly was the host. The waitress didn't come to our table right away to take our order and only came to bring is our food. We also didn't ask for the check. It was given to us while we were still eating and the waitress couldn't even wait for me to put down my credit card. I can't say I want to come back here to dine again. The food and the service leaves me very disheartened.

This is probably the most recommended food spot in all of Baltimore -- I saw it constantly on…read moresocial media and heard about it from friends too. At first I was like, no way it can actually be that good. But it really was that good! I love comfort Asian food, and this place was BOMB. The food was legit sooo good, and my only regret is that I didn't get more sauce, because their chicken was so moist and flavorful that I wanted to drench it. I do wish they did delivery, since I had to make a specific trip out here for it, but honestly it was worth going out of my way for. BTS apparently even booked the place out for a night -- that should tell you everything you need to know!

I'm normally a BIG fan of Ekiben, especially the Tacklebox, so it honestly pains me to leave a…read moreless-than-great review because this was definitely more of a one-off bad experience than my usual experience with them. I placed a catering/pickup order at 8:30 AM for my friend's birthday, with a scheduled pickup time of 12:30 PM. When I arrived to pick up the order, I was told that everything I had ordered was sold out. The frustrating part was that I was never notified ahead of time, so I had no opportunity to make another selection before arriving. Since my friend doesn't eat chicken, I had to find another seafood option on the spot. Once I found something that would work, I had to pay an additional $15 and then wait another 20 minutes for the new order. I normally go to the Locust Point location and have never really had issues there, so I don't want this experience to give the impression that I think Ekiben is bad overall. This was genuinely just one bad experience. The food itself is still AMAZING. I'm obsessed with the Tacklebox, the tempura broccoli is , and the chili noodles are an absolute SMASH. I'll definitely still be back because I genuinely love Ekiben -- I just hope there's better communication when an item from a scheduled order is no longer available.

For the appetizer, we got the mushroom toast and miso soup. The mushroom toast was umami and creamy. And the miso soup had an interesting crunch on top, while the base was hearty. I really enjoyed both! For the main course we got the catfish. It was nicely fried and not at all greasy. I regret not getting the lamb instead, since I'm not the biggest fan of white fish. For dessert, we tried the shortbread and a blueberry cake. I forget exactly why it was, but the shortbread was so delectable. There was a nice caramel layer. Our server was very kind! Very attentive and friendly. I was celebrating a birthday, and when she heard that, she asked if we wanted a Polaroid photo to document the moment. It was so cute! Overall ambiance is nice too. It's cozy without feeling small. Although, it was very cold that day and every time someone opened the door, I would feel the wind draft. Maybe a slightly higher indoor temperature would be better. Anyways, I'd definitely come back! Solid food and lovely service. I like that they serve seasonal specials.
