    Breakfast menu

    Not bad I have not been here for a while and I remember the sandwiches being a little bit bigger back in the day. this occasion I came in on a Saturday around lunchtime and it was pretty packed. The line was so long. I could barely get in the door. The line also moved very slowly. Once I finally made it to the counter, I placed my order. Just ordered three corn beef sandwiches on rye with Swiss and spicy mustard. I wanted to have them grilled so it took a little bit longer for them to be prepared. Once I was done there, I headed over to the cash register area. I grabbed a couple of bags of chips to go along with the sandwiches. I wanted to get a regular iced tea out of their refrigerator area. Unfortunately, the only kind they had was peach tea so even though it's not what I really wanted, I still got one. I decided to dine in to have my sandwich fresh and hot. Overall, the flavor was good. Was not piled high with corn beef like I've had at other places, but it was still pretty good.

    Lenny's is a much have for the locals! This should also be a must have for those visiting outside of the area. I went here specifically for a rainbow cake. It's my husbands favorite and they always have it ready to go. Service is quick and easy. You walk to the register and tell them what you want. From there you go to the register to pay. It's set up like cafeteria style.

    Pros: Easy parking Great location Fast, friendly service dining hall style - get your tray and let them know what you want Lots of meat on sandwiches Cons: Matzo ball soup broth lacked any real flavor Pretty pricey Pro tip: Get your sandwich warmed or grilled and take half home for later

    Whitefish Salad platter with sesame bagel

    First timer at Lenny's this month. If I lived closed, I would absolutely go back constantly. It's a great diner and the food portions are large. Customers go through a (long) line to reach the counter where the several cooks make each order from scratch and right in front of you. There is a really large seating area of tables and booths. There is a dessert section that looks wonderful (but I did not try it so cannot provide an opinion). My whitefish salad platter was large and a great value for $16. Note that the corned beef sandwich is prepared on buttered and grilled bread - if you prefer straight out bread, tell them!

    Efficiency in service and production

    A great start to a day. Staff talks to you. Friendly, efficient. Food is good. Grits are the best around. Coffee is good. Bottom line is that this is a place to get food, talk to friends or watch CNN with captions only. No blaring tv.

    Unclean food prep area.

    This place is filthy! The level of cross contamination is crazy! I took my mom in there this evening to get some dinner. We ordered sandwiches. While I was waiting I looked behind the counter and I wish I hadn't. The guy that made our food put our sandwiches on the unclean counter to cut & wrap them. After he cut the sandwiches he took the knife and scraped it on the edge of the counter, then pushed the scraps on the floor. One guy kept sniffing and wiping his nose with his arm as he was making food. The equipment is covered in grease buildup. How in the world is this filthy place so popular. They need to close & deep clean ASAP! The health department needs to pay them a visit! So disappointing!

    You are better off just going in the store. It takes way longer to order on line. I don't know if the wait is worth it

    Stellar food all around. Some of the best chicken soup for getting over a cold. Would absolutely visit again.

    Finding the restaurant itself was easy, but parking was another story -- the one‑way street and…read moresmall lot made it a challenge. When we walked in, the cashier immediately asked whether we were dining in or taking out. We chose to dine in. We ordered the roast beef sandwich and the pastrami sandwich, along with potato pancakes. They brought out a full assortment of pickles and pickled vegetables. Unfortunately, they only offer one diet option: Dr Pepper Zero, no other diet sodas from the fountain or in bottles. The potato pancakes were a disappointment -- mostly batter with very little shredded potato. The pickled vegetables also lacked flavor and didn't really taste pickled. Our table wasn't cleared at any point during the meal, and the waiter stood nearby waiting for us to finish, which felt a bit uncomfortable. The desserts looked amazing, but we were too full to try them. We also couldn't take anything to go since we had plans for the rest of the day and didn't want it sitting in the car. Next time, we'll come back specifically to try the desserts.

    I am from Philadelphia and grew up on AUTHENTIC NYC style Jewish Delis. I moved to B'more in 2015…read moreand was shocked how lacking the Deli scene was; especially considering it's Jewish population. When Essen FIRST opened I was relieved...finally a solid Deli. However, as you know it slowly deteriorated until I stopped patronizing it. I was initially happy to see it changed ownership. Reading the reviews however, it seems it is continuing to be SUBPAR! The Management apologies are scripted(cut & paste) for goodness sakes!! I think I'll pass! Fortunately, when I go back home periodically, I have several solid authentic options.

    Little Georgia is a delightful experience that will please adventurous eaters as well as the more…read morereserved. The waiter was patient with my questions and explained what some of the food was as I deliberated over a unique to me menu. I started with the Tolma, which was cabbage stuffed with very tender and flavorful meat. I next ordered Beets with Walnuts and was surprised to see a dish of three squat pieces of beet and walnut mix. It was served cold and was very refreshing. I ended the meal with the Adjaruli which is a cross between a pizza, dip, and bread bowl. It was the best of all those things! Apparently, I needed to be taught how to eat the Adjaruli because I was trying to cut pizza like slices and dip them into the egg. The waiter corrected me (very politely but emphatically) that I should mix the cheese and egg together, then pull off bits of the outside dough to dip into the center. I was close!

    My son is in love. At a food stall on a recent vacation, he tried a Georgian cheese boat (Adjaruli,…read moreif you're in the know) and has declared it his new favorite food. Bread bowl with melted cheese and a raw egg yolk to break an mix in - it was made for the boy. So when we came back home, we Yelped "Georgian restaurants" and found Little Georgia, so we came here for his birthday. There's a front entrance on the main drag, but a big private parking lot out back with an entrance there, so we came in. Two mannequins with traditional Georgian (wedding?) attire are there to greet you, with lots of Georgian art and maps along the hallway as you walk in. It was lunch on a weekday, so not a very busy place. Two people at the bar, a table of teens, and a family getting up just as we were entering. Relatively empty. So I was surprised how slow service was over the whole visit. Our waitress was very kind, but I got the impression it was maybe a one-person show. Unfortunately, we skipped asking for some beverages (beyond water) and dessert because we were worried how long it would take. I would definitely try this place again though, because the food was overall pretty good. My son got his Adjaruli cheese boat and was delighted. The bit I tried was good - salty stretchy cheese with a garlic infusion - can't go wrong! My wife got the Phkhlovana spinach cheese pie and it was huge and delicious. Imagine a spanikopita that's cheesier and more bready than flaky crust. Would get again. My brother opted for lamb chops with fried potatoes and I got the Ojakhuri lamb and potatoes. Both were very tasty with a nice seasoning on the potatoes and lamb with a really good piquant and garlicky sauce. My only complaint is that the lamb was pretty well done, and in my opinion lamb is best medium rare; our waitress didn't even ask if we had a cook preference. The ricey, cheesy "cheese balls" appetizer came with the same sauce. Child #3 was in a picky mood that day, so he only ate half of them. They taste like you'd imagine. Solid, but nothing spectacular. Per a recommendation from our waitress, we tried the Adjapsandali eggplant salad. As good as everything was, this was a memorable part of my meal, and I have a love-hate relationship with eggplant. It reminded me a lot of a Catalan Escalivada - roasted eggplant, onions, and peppers served cold but this had a nice salty-sour dressing with it. Would totally get again. It's a nice place with a cuisine that's hard to find in these parts. Reisterstown 2026 with prices to match. The food was overall solid. I wish the service were a little better, but not so bad that I wouldn't come back. Recommended for sure!
