Ekiben

I was on an airplane to Baltimore and I asked the folks sitting next to me if they could tell me if restaurants I wanted to go to were any good. When I mentioned Ekiben, it was an affirmative yes from both of them. This was my best meal in Baltimore and I still think about my sandwich a couple …

The food was delicious! 😍 The best Brokkoli I have ever eaten! I heard it once and always remembered Ekiban is the food of Baltimore 🙌🏽 The food was truly a treat, even though we had to wait for 20 min, the music was great and I cannot wait to eat there again ✨

Ekiben had a food truck in Frederick for the Fire in Ice festival so I wasn’t sure which location to leave this for but assuming they are all amazing. These nuggets have made me realize tofu can actually be good. The sauce was out of this world tasty. Very reasonably priced for a hefty (very sturdy) container of nuggets. Not …

Health: While fried food doesn’t lend itself to the most healthy diet, the blend of white rice, kimchi, and legitimate Asian/American fusion veggies tossed in soy sauce and not grilled in oil balances it out. Price: For this taste and portion size? Excellent. Though not particularly “low”. Definitely satisfying though. Experience: The most “alive” and “trendy” food scene in Baltimore. …

My wife and I went to Ekiben after being at a nearby brewery. This was our first time to one of their locations and it did not disappoint at all. We both got the spicy neighborhood bird bun and it was the greatest spicy chicken sandwich we have ever had. The chicken was flavorful and and crispy, the bun was …

The Neighborhood Bird Bowl was fantastic and way more than I could eat in a single meal. I got the spicy variant and was not disappointed. The pickled vegetables on the side go very well with the Taiwanese curry fried chicken. As I believe has been mentioned in other reviews, there is not a lot of seating space. Just a …

The Bird Bowl and yuzuade were excellent—generous enough for two if you’re not too hungry. Freshly fried chicken and pickles paired perfectly over rice. Quick, courteous service, paid parking right outside, and limited seating (about 10). Will definitely be back to try more from the menu.

Ekieben never disappoints. Second time stopping by & first time having the neighborhood bird bowl. Absolutely amazing & very generous with the portion sizes. I got the spicy variant it packs a kick. Super flavorful & filling. Definitely worth the trip to Baltimore to stop by. Can’t wait to have it next time I’m in town. Also huge S/O to …

Best restaurant in Baltimore period. My personal fave restaurant in the US honestly. My husband and I would’ve literally catered this for our wedding if we had our wedding in Maryland. The Neighborhood Bird Bowl is THE dish we come back over and over for. Crispiest most flavorful chicken with delicious pickles. We journeyed from NYC for our beloved dish …

I got the tofu sandwich and the Temple Broccoli and both were sooo good. The tofu sandwich was super flavorful and filling, and the Temple Broccoli was crispy and just hit the spot. The service was honestly just as good as the food. The guy who took my order gave awesome recommendations and was really friendly. He even came back …
