    TLDR: Bigger space, same legendary pit beef. Still one of the best sandwiches in Baltimore, and the…read morenew location makes it even easier to enjoy. If you're talking Baltimore pit beef, Chaps Pit Beef has been a staple for years, and after coming here for over a decade, I can confidently say it still delivers every single time. Their new location, just a stone's throw from the original humble shack, is a huge upgrade. You get the same iconic food, but now with a much larger dining room that actually makes it easy to bring a group without fighting for space. It's the best of both worlds. Same old school flavor with a more comfortable setup. On my most recent visit, I stuck with my go to. A loaded hoagie absolutely packed with pit beef, corned beef, sausage, and turkey. It's massive, messy in the best way, and exactly what you want when you're craving something unapologetically Baltimore. I paired it with a large order of fries, which were piled high and perfect for sharing. Decided to switch it up a bit and try the Holy Cod fish sandwich too, and that ended up being a sleeper hit. Huge portion of crispy fried cod, topped with fresh coleslaw on a soft bun. Not something you usually go to Chaps for, but honestly worth ordering. Everything came out crazy fast, which is always impressive considering how busy they can get. Quick stop at the condiment bar is a must. Load up on the free pickles, onions, Carolina Gold mustard, and that tiger sauce. The horseradish and mayo combo just hits different on pit beef. Bottom line, Chaps might not be a hidden gem anymore, but it doesn't need to be. It still outperforms most spots in the pit beef game and continues to be one of the best sandwiches you can get in Baltimore.

    We visited on Monday and were really disappointed. The pit beef and corned beef both tasted old and…read morewere very tough--honestly, barely chewable. It didn't even have the smell or feel of a proper pit beef place. Customer service also needs improvement. The cashier taking our order seemed more focused on watching the baseball game on TV than helping customers. It might be worth turning the TV off near the counter so staff can give customers the attention and service they deserve. Overall, not a great experience.

    Hi Yelpers! I've always wanted to go downtown to eat and the perfect time came around. My friends…read moreand I decided to make a quick stop at Theo's Rolls and Bowls and I was very impressed. The first thing I noticed was how clean the place was. There was a self serve machine where you could place your order. The bowls start at $10 and you just pick your toppings. I got the lemon grass chicken & rice with greens and an egg. I choose the bang, bang sauce. I watched the lady make the food and could not wait to taste it. My food came in a bowl and the portion was good. The food was sooo delicious. I could taste ever fresh herb in this dish. It was hot and delicious. I would most definitely recommend this spot to everyone. It wasn't a busy Friday when we went so the service was very fast. When you go I hope you enjoy the food as much as my friends and I did.

When I first walked up, I had a question, and they just pointed me toward the kiosk to order. The same thing happened to the customer after me too lol, so I guess that's just how they operate here. Despite that, my drink came out really fast...probably within five minutes. Since then, I've tried several other boba spots, and honestly, this one has had the best flavor so far. The drink wasn't overly sweet even at 100% sweetness, and the tapioca pearls were the perfect consistency. I hate that this place is so far from me because I would absolutely go back again today.
