    Shrimp fried rice.
    Camille N.

    I was in the area and decided to try this spot. I wondered why it eventually became so crowded until I overheard many of the repeat patrons saying they've traveled from near and far just to eat from here. They all laughed at how long the wait is but definitely stated it was worth it. So, I became even more intrigued to see what all the hype was about especially since I've eaten Chinese food in the past that was pretty good. I usually get Shrimp Fried rice with onions, bean sprouts, and fried egg, extra dark rice. Chinaex did not have bean sprouts The rice was good but I wasn't a fan of the large shrimp on top. I'm sure I will eat from them again but would have to be in the area again. Note: One thing I did notice is that assistance is definitely needed, even if it is someone to answer the phone to take orders. As far as the location, there wasn't anything fancy about the place but it was clean, well lit and in an area with ample parking.

    The shrimp fried rice is so, so good! Plenty of shrimp. Just wish it didn't take so long to get to enjoy it.

    I come here every now and again. The food is delicious, but the owners are in serious need of help! There's literally one person taking orders and one person cooking. That's it. The patrons are extremely patient with the wait. I assume they are used to it. I called in my order at 5:37 on a recent Friday evening and I walked out of the restaurant at 6:59. The lady taking the orders is very sweet and nice, but extremely overwhelmed. Phones were ringing off the hook and she was the only one taking phone orders and in store orders. The only time I would come after this is when they first open in the morning (11am). Anytime after that is a no win situation.

    She takes forever to get you your food but it's worth it because the food is really good.

The best part was the spring rolls and the donuts, those were like what I expected. The fried rice had very large pieces of vegetables (entire broccoli florets, piece of baby corn, carrot slices) and was not crispy, chewy, or anything that suggested it was fried except oily, and was the oblong oval kind of rice, some kind of short grain or sticky rice. So the texture was wrong to me. The flavor was underwhelming and did not use nearly enough soy sauce, salt, MSG, whatever. These things were pretty consistent across their other dishes as well, including lo mein and hunan chicken; veg pieces too big, flavor not there, sauce too thin and not dark enough. Parking was impossible for pickup; had to circle the block 5 times. The location was scary at 8:30PM, there was a homeless woman yelling at me from the sidewalk on the way in, just something to be aware of. However my order was ready on time and they were polite.

    Blue Island (Aug 31, 2023, Thursday, ~ 2p.m.)…read more Blue Island is located in the Lexington Market in the heart of Baltimore City. I first went to the Lexington Market pretty early mid-morning on Aug. 30, 2023 before I headed to the B&O Railroad Museum (A MUST-SEE when visiting Baltimore.) and was expecting a food market selling fresh produce, unprocessed foods, confectionaries, flowers etc. I was totally wrong. It is instead a two-story structure carrying many different types of cuisine. Blue Island is located on the second floor. After climbing stairs of many steps right in the middle of the structure, Blue Island is located on the left side towards the back end of the second floor. There are a few tables and chairs set up so you can "dine-in". I was way too early, and the store was not open yet. I decided to come back the next day to try out the food due to my tight schedule that day. If you do some research, some of the other sites claim Blue Island offers Malaysian cuisine. Being born in Singapore, a very close neighboring country of Malaysia, I can tell you that it is most definitely NOT Malaysian cuisine. Their food, however, may have some Malaysian spices incorporated into it, and I taste that in the "spicy" dishes (Not spicy enough for my taste though. Way too Americanized.). The high quality ingredients are also part of the Malaysian heritage. What impressed me most was the pretty large sized shrimp that was part of the ingredients in the fried rice and fried noodles. In my many decades living in this country, I've eaten a lot of what I call "fake" Chinese/Asian cuisine, and I have never encountered shrimp of that size with any of those rice/noodle dishes. What stood out even more was that shrimp was FRESH - a double bonus. As in many places, you can order the combos, but there is a catch. My past experiences with these places is that when you order a 2-item combo, that means either a base rice and/or noodle PLUS 2 entrees. At Blue.Island, the rice or noodle IS COUNTED as one item (No half and half either.) in the Combo. I ended up ordering a 3-item combo with fried rice and two of their spicier entrees. The food was very delicious, and a definite cut above the rest. I also had time, while in line to order the food, to have a quick chat with one of the servers. I discovered that the owner and some of the servers were originally from Hong Kong. The two I spoke with also spoke Cantonese, and I was provided with a little discount off the total price, which was totally unexpected and appreciated. If you decide to eat at this place, please be prepared for a constant line of people doing the same. I was there for about 90 minutes to rest my tired feet after long hours of sight-seeing, and the line never ceased throughout that time. Do yourself a favor and patronize this place. I don't think you will regret that decision. Ah, those large tasty shrimp! For the taste, quality, and value. I rate this place a full 5 stars. Happy Eating !!!!
