My husband got the chicken torta with Orioles, lettuce, tomato and cotija cheese. So delicious but big so he took the second half home for later. The ladies working in there were lovely. We will be going back many times since it is so good and very close to our home.

Wow what can I say other than wow! I wanted to try this new spot in town because I've been wishing…read morewe had more protein houses in Baltimore. I ordered the mango protein shake and OH MY GOSH this was hands down the best protein shake I've ever had I rarely finish my drinks, but this one was so good I drank the whole thing. Since it's a new spot, it's probably still developing, but it already has nice seating and the sweetest staff ever. I think it might be family owned, but I'm not totally sure. Either way, I'll definitely be back for another mango protein shake very soon. Wishing this business all the success, it deserves to flourish!

This is the place for smoothies in the northeast market. This place replaced the sticky bun bakery…read more The sign is still there but sticky bun moved to the front of the market. I had been wanting to try this place for a while but nearby stalls were a bit off putting so I waited until I got familiar with the area. Smoothie place's staff is friendly. I got their wake up smoothie which had strawberry, pineapple and two other flavors I don't recall. They have a whole bunch of combos and I will try more flavors if I am in the market. Until then I recommend you try it!

This is my favorite smoothie place period! I have never been disappointed here. The fact that they…read morehave such a vast variety of flavors can be overwhelming but just take your time.

After taking a long time to figure out what I wanted since EVERYTHING looks delicious, I settled on the Nashville hot chicken dip and the shakshuka, as well as a dirty chai latte. The Nashville hot chicken dip was warm and inviting, perfect for scooping up with their toasted baguette slices. The shakshuka was flavorful and comforting, also perfect to be scooped! The dirty chai latte was creamy and arrived at the perfect temperature! The latte art was so cute, too. The restaurant is cozy, their staff are so friendly and awesome with allergies. I will definitely be back!

I ordered a freshly made mango passion fruit juice and it was so delicious. I didn't even know there was a small cafe with a juice bar and poke bowl offerings inside.

Urban Life Center's offerings include cooking classes, educational workshops, toy drives, food drivesnand even wellness challenges.

This place has been a lifesaver during COVID.

Their menu is huge and everything I've tried was stellar. Their al pastor, whether packed into a taco, chalupa, or sope, is amazing as many have pointed out. As much as I love tacos, I've been a big fan of the tortas and cemitas lately, which are massive sandwiches and are VERY filling. The ricas aguas, horchata, and licuados I've ordered were all fantastic as well, huge sizes and very refreshing. I also recommend the tinga quesadillas - they're not like any other quesadilla I've had, with very thick corn tortillas and what seems like oaxaca cheese. Super delicious. The complaints about long delivery times are true. I usually order an hour ahead. That said, I think their service is great! Most recently the driver forgot my drinks. He rolled down his window, apologized, and zoomed off to get them. He was back in 10 minutes with a complimentary dessert, which wasn't necessary since it was no big deal, but nonetheless very nice of him. It's not the cheapest good Mexican food in the area, nor the fastest, nor does it have any hip frills - but it's darn good food with tons of options, large portions, and they've certainly earned their place as a neighborhood favorite.

I really appreciated that the food came out piping hot -- you can tell everything is made to order, so of course that takes some time. My faves were the buffalo wings and fries, as well as the tacos (steak, shrimp, or chicken). The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the fried fish. It was seasoned perfectly, but you could tell it wasn't the freshest or best quality. The fresh fruit juice they make in-house was also a fave -- I haven't stopped thinking about it! Check them out!
