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.

I had been here once before, before moving to the area, and thought it was great then. This time? Extraordinary. I came in about an hour before closing, and anyone who eats out knows food can sometimes feel different that close to closing time. Not here. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and just as good as if I had walked in at peak dinner time. On top of that, I had an issue with my online order/payment. It looked like the charge was processing through my account, but they had no record of the order. Instead of making me feel like a problem, the person helping me was patient, kind, and genuinely tried to figure it out. I felt treated like a hungry customer who needed help not like someone trying to get over. The food looked good, tasted amazing, and the people were helpful, welcoming, and kind even near closing. The space was welcoming as well. The corner store ..... come on in. Come on in. Come on in. Top-notch all around

It is a really big sandwich, crispy soft shell crab and very heavily seasoned with old bay. It was perfect to share between two people as we have ate a bit beforehand. Overall I would be coming back to try the neighborhood bowl and the rest of their menu. This place had a couple of seatings inside and out.

Came here with no reservations and was able to get Sat within 5 mins on a Friday night. My friends and I ordered an appetizer each, plus an entree each, and we were drowning in food. The corn cheese was incredible and melty, the fried dumplings were crisp and the dipping sauce was delicious, the edamame was fine, nothing crazy. We all ordered some sort of bibimbap bowl, and they were quite huge. The Kongbination is what I got, which comes with beef bulgogi, pork bulgogi, fried chicken, white rice, salad, and a fried egg. I was able to take home half and have plenty for lunch. Everything was delicious, great price for the amount of food, and fun atmosphere. I would love to check out their karaoke rooms next time!

This past Friday it was really chilly and my work colleague wanted some hot tofu soup. Not to mention this is one of the best Korean Pocha spots in the city, with a 70-80's retro street vibe features traditional Korean cuisine, Korean BBQ & other specialties. The wait staff was really nice and inviting. They were very knowledgeable about the various food options. It was really cool to hear catchy K-pop songs playing as week. The food is fire hands down. I went ahead and got the Teriyaki mayonnaise Cup Bap( rice bowl topped with the korean fried chicken, teriyaki sauce and mayo). So delicious, my friend got he soft tofu soup with seafood and we split a hot sake to share. I am still mad at myself that I have not come here sooner, I will definitely be back. Their fried rice dishes look amazing. I also love the price point here as well. For both of us it was $40 bucks. So if your in the station north area, please stop in. You wont be dissapointed SYOY

Once you order at the counter, they give you a number so that they may find you once your food is ready. Our order - K-BBQ Chicken Pancakes $16.25 (double stack, chicken thigh, miso butter, fried egg, syrup) When I think of Korean bbq chicken, I think of crispy chicken in a soy garlic sauce. Here, it is more of a gochujang. I scraped some of the excess red sauce off and tamed it with the provided syrup and blueberry jam, and enjoyed the meaty dark meat with the pancakes. Help yourself to the water and napkins and bust your table when you are done.

I have noticed an improvement in the food over time and I promised, as I always do, to revisit my review with an improved score. So now (I give it three stars) but my daughter insisted on 4 stars for flavor and consistency. We typically order chicken with broccoli, steamed dumplings, crab rangoons, shrimp egg rolls, and beef in garlic sauce with mixed vegetables. My daughter has developed a raport with the front of house lady who occasionally puts a piece of fruit or two in our bag. They have not improved their sales area yet but we can hope. I recommend that you try them if you have a craving for Chinese food at a reasonable price. This is carry out only.

The rolls range from average to excellent, but the price is pretty high across the board unfortunately which I don't think necessarily matches the quality of every roll. If you're craving sushi and in the Canton area, this is a great option, but not from a price standpoint. The jalapeño yellow tail is really yummy and the sauce is so good. The miso soup and green salad are a must for me at a sushi place. Their sashimi is also really fresh, and standout rolls for me are the dynamite and the bonfire roll. They also have a really good mango sticky rice with warm rice and ripe mangos. Hits the spot, but your wallet might suffer a little!

My go-to is the Veggie Melt with added lettuce, onion, tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and garlic aioli. I would definitely stick to light sauce though, every time I've gotten the regular amount of sauce the sandwich is absolutely drowning in it.
