This restaurant is an extension of the food court on the inside of White Marsh Mall. There is an outside entrance ìdentifiable by a blue awning, that's your visual. For those that are challenged by steps, tĥere is a small elevator, the only hitch witĥ tĥat is is operated by the hostess. The seating is adequate, no delay at mid day. Service was great! The servers were busy at their pace, nothing rushed, but steady which made all the difference in the atmosphere in the dining areas. One note on seating, if you sit on the right side, you will be close to the partition between the kitchen and you, making a noisier visit. There are quietier sections. The menu was a scaled down version of the 1 in Canton. It would be too ambitious to attempt to make all of that This menu was well thought out. The food was fantastic. I had the crispy chicken sandwich, omg, it was fantastic. It comes with boom boom sauce, which i requested be put on the side.There is also a sides section, the onion rings were crispy, nice and hot. My husband had a waffle, a "chocolate" waffle meaning a regular plain waffle with chocolate chips, and sliced strawberries on top, which was a bit of a disappointment, but it came together as it should.

On the plus side my family enjoyed the ribs and crab balls. On the negative side, the fish in my fish and chips was painfully thin and small. Normally you get a nice chunky piece of fish when you get fish and chips. Not only that, l've never had fish and chips where the skin was on the fish. I left most of the skin behind, but ate some of it because the portion was so small. I had to eat something. Please have the chef look up what fish and chips is supposed to look like. Despite being the only server, our wait person was outstanding - it wasn't their fault that they had to handle the entire dining room. . Also appreciated the carafe of water on the table - but why no ice -had to drink lukewarm water. Make sure to ask for prices upfront and verify-for a single crabcake entrée, we paid $63 when it's advertised online as 30. Let the buyer beware.. Wouldn't feel a need to return at this point, too many other better options.

I popped in to The Local with one of my friends for a much needed happy hour and we were both in consensus we had to come back to try some other menu items and specials. $7 for the house Sangria and a mule of the day, was a great start to the evening and quite tasty. We both dined on the burger and fries and enjoyed the dish. I would've like a bit of seasoning on the burger patties and maybe a cheddar or American cheese, but that's my personal preference. I asked for the black truffle aioli on the side and that was definitely the way to go to really be able to taste the black truffle. And might I say the aioli was delicious. Our waitress was great and very attentive. The Local offers different specials on various nights and even does live music on Friday nights. This is a great place on the Avenue to enjoy dishes made with ingredients from local businesses and enjoy a delicious meal.

Very pleasantly surprised!…read more We ordered uber eats to a hotel, and it was a god send that it was open so late. First person we talked to on phone was not super helpful, but then I think we talked to the manager when we called back with questions about menu, the manager (maybe?) was very kind and informative! We got a warm veggie side, which was on the smaller side but very tasty. We also got the lentils which were delightful. The red pepper sauce I think is really just like a salsa, so the flavor is a little different from Italian vibe I thought it was going to have, but it hit the spot.

It definitely feels like a more upscale diner, not your typical diner experience. It's comfortable, clean, and just has a better overall vibe. If you're in the White Marsh area, I definitely recommend checking it out. It's one of those spots you can count on every time.

When the Seating outside was ready, I was seated quickly and Megan was my server. I don't eat much with my gastric sleeve, so I ordered the kids cheeseburger. It came out super quick. It was hot. Juicy had the best flavor to it man, it was the best burger I probably had in a long time. The bill came out and there was a three dollar surcharge for an adult ordering off the kids menu now I get it people trying to be cheap people want just a little bite I get it but when I had ordered the kids burger if Megan would've said, there's an up charge, I would've been explained. I've had gastric surgery. She could've looked to see if they could've waived the surcharge. Yay or nay I was having a burger and it was fantastic, but not let me know ahead of time and not look to see if they could get it waived the three dollar surcharge could've gone towards her tip.

That they were able to pull this off in a festival tent is remarkable. So kudos to them. The other food that was coming out also looked good.

I think it's worth mentioning that I've never had pit beef before so I am by no means an expert as to what's good or not. I will also say however, that what I ordered, the open face pit beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy was ok. The entire plate was swimming in gravy so that took away from what could've been a better meal. I did ask for gravy on the whole sandwich and the mashed potatoes (because the picture on their website looked like gravy only came on the mashed potatoes and I do like a little extra) but I wasn't expecting a to-go box literally full of gravy, so that's probably my fault. The texture of the beef mixed with all the gravy and mashed potatoes was a bit unpleasant and soupy and I periodically had to pick burnt bits and foil out my mouth so that also took away from the experience. They seem to have a pretty vast menu and I had no idea what I was going to get when I walked in. The young lady that took my order was very friendly and helped me come to my decision so the customer service was good and I appreciated her patience with me. As far as ambiance goes, while I was waiting for my order, there was an older man waiting for his order that was yelling at the tv about how Joe Biden hasn't done anything for this country and that Trump only told the truth. I try not to get caught up in politics with strangers because it really can be off putting but what can you do. I wouldn't do the gravy with a side of open face pit beef sandwich again but there's so many other options I'd like to try in the future should I find myself in the area again. A man that was also waiting for his order said he really like the ribs.

In all my years of coming here I have only had their shrimp salad, white fish, and the aforementioned sandwich; and that's basically it, so it was nice to try something different. The mussel really surprised me because I typically dont like them; I guess smoking changes the texture and I approve lol. I love the flavors, the attention to detail, and the consistency. Not to mention the service is typically fast and friendly. One of these days I'll venture to other menu items because I hear the pastrami is killer.

Nonetheless, I got the BLT Salmon sandwich and nestled up at a table outside to enjoy my lunch. The sandwich was quite tasty. Crispy bacon with smoked salmon, perfect lunch bite. But the star of my lunch was their ginger lemonade. There are no words to describe how delicious this lemonade is. First sip and you automatically think where has this been all my life. Neopol's counter offers a variety of smoked items from fish to purchase by the pound and mussles, to salads, smoked garlic, and sandwiches.
