    Bulgogi chicken, bean sprouts, lo mein and kim chi. Slap yo' mama good!
    Grace K.

    Is it bad this was my first time tasting Kim Chi? Yes? Ok. I don't like "Chimerican" food and I tend to avoid Asian food in general because of all the bad, greasy, salty, oversweet, fried versions I ate growing up in Georgia. You know - when Kung Pao, Sweet and Sour, and Duck Sauce all taste the same and so does the meat. Eating anything Asian-inspired is really out of my comfort zone. That being said, OK Oriental was really tasty! I loved the Chicken Bulgogi. It was moist, but didn't lose any of the grill taste when a bit of the sauce was added. It was the only thing I managed to finish eating out of the huge serving. I had the bean sprouts and Kim Chi. Wow! If I had only known Kim Chi tasted that yummy I'd have eaten it before. It wasn't salty, just nicely seasoned and spicy. I liked their Lo Mein ok. I'm just not a starch person. They had a bunch of cool things on the menu like squid and fish. I can't wait to try more items.

    It took me almost an hour and a half finding this little tiny place that was eventually found in the Northeast Market. From my house to this place, it was truly a mission. I drove around, trying to find parking and when I did, it took me forever finding this place. I first went inside the market and looked everywhere, all those signs and looking at the food options in the hot bars and I just couldn't find it... So I stepped outside and asked a few people and they didn't know, so I started walking around the whole area and found myself in an area with at least 3 groups of people that reeked of weed. I finally went back inside the Market after 20 minutes of walking in circles and decided to get a smoothie before trying again. When I ordered a Blueberry smoothie, less sweet for 4 bucks, I decided to ask the people that were making my smoothie if they knew where OK Oriental Food was. They told me it was behind them.... wut..... WHAT?! This whole time I was walking around for half an hour and it was right in front of me?! I went there after getting my smoothie and I can see why I never found them until now, their sign is kinda hidden and hard to see unless you look at it through a certain angle. This food better be worth it... I went to the place and saw a hot bar. More than half of the foods were almost empty. Sad face. :( I told the angry looking Korean woman that this was my first time getting her food and what she would recommend. She told me I could get a starch, 1 meat and 2 veggies as a meal. Fried rice or white rice, Chicken or beef bulgogi and 2 other meats which were almost gone, or different types of kimchi. I got white rice, chicken bulgogi, kimchi and baechu kimchi. It was like 8 bucks and PACKED. It had 1 of my favorite kimchi too. The kind with pickled carrots, spicy paste, and cabbage. The food was delicious. It was raining hard outside and I wore shorts and a t-shirt. The food was hot and made me feel warm. The chicken bulgogi was tender, moist, salty, and flavorful. A great combination with the cool and savory kimchi which went even nicer with the sweet baechu kimchi and to have it washed down by the white rice and blueberry smoothie. It's the only place in the Market that sells Korean food. Definitely a must if you're around the area. And lets say you don't like it? There are like 10 other places to eat inside the same building!

    Spicy cucumber, bean sprouts, Lo Mein, bulgogi, and red sauce.

    I think my tastebuds just went on a roller coaster. I am at a loss for words, all good words that is. The food was amazing. I got their lo mein, spicy cucumber, sprouts and bulgogi. Everything was so tasty and juicy with so many flavors all at once. Vegetables have never tasted better. If your children do not eat vegetables, then introduce them to this place. I also tried the red sauce they keep at the register, which was good. I got a ton of food for $7.50 so I ate half of it for lunch and half for dinner. I will be back to try some of the other items they have such as fish, tofu and even octopus/squid if I am feeling adventurous ;) The ladies behind the counter were friendly and all smiles most of the times :)

    Chicken bulgogi, dry fried green beans, kim chee, bean sprouts

    (03/25/2011) This place is a stall in the Northeast Market, and way better than OK, it's definitely my favorite place in the market. They usually have a variety of 6 stir fries/stews/noodle dishes that rotate during the week (e.g. sweet and sour chicken, lo mein, chap chae, squid), but my go to is definitely the chicken bulgogi (savory, marinated -- flavors of soy, sugar, celery seed -- and grilled) on white rice. You get a main and 2 veg sides: dry fried green beans, bean sprouts, cabbage kim chee, sometimes pickled carrots or cucumbers, blanched broccoli and carrots with sesame. It's a nice box of food for ~$6.50. Def spring the 25 cents for the sweet hot red pepper paste (gochujang) sauce.

I was alone and sometimes I like to stay and eat instead of take out. Nonetheless there was a small window to view some of what they have but it's manly just menu to go off from. I waited about 10m after I ordered my food which was pretty fast. Now for the food, the Turkey Wings were flavorful, not super juicy but it wasn't tough or dry either. The smothered was smothering for sure, thegravy was a bit lighter than I was expecting but nothing to cray. I ordered a side or Mac & Collards and the wings come on top of a bed of rice. Mac was cool & cheesy, collards were great too even without pork. I look forward to trying them again but I do wish the seating was more restaurant instead of hookah lounge.

That's nice but the drink and desert selection was basically non existent so if you're looking for a sweet treat they might have it but your drinks you're better off stopping at the grocery before heading home. Now the food: if you don't want to wait long. ORDER AHEAD. When I placed my order online it was about a hour wait time. Luckily I wasn't starving because that's a bit extreme to wait for carry out food. When we received the food everything smelt GREAT. I personally ordered the maple jerk wings, Mac and string beans. The wings were good, they were a little more sweet than jerky but still good. I was really disappointed with the Mac and String Beans. Normally I'm all for flavor, but the seasoning on the string beans were overwhelming and the Mac & cheese was very very salty. I thought it was just mine but this seemed to be the general consensus. Everyone else enjoyed their food and the talk of the night were the salmon tenders. Our least favorite item was the shrimp. To me paying $13.99 then an additional 2.99 for the sauce for it to not even be fully coated and overly battered is insane. I wouldn't have cared if the price matched the quality.

Everyone agreed their chicken is outstanding - people were actually talking about it. Native Baltimoreans were saying it was the best chicken they had had in B-more.

No condiments provided for the fried fish and chicken and the servers could not tell the difference between a breast or thigh. The baked and fried chicken was dry and extremely large except for the wings. I was really hoping to have a better experience as this was through catering but my review remains the same. It's definitely giving the southern blues alright.

I've known about this place for years, but was so off putted by it being inside a gas station (???!). It wasn't until a few months ago when I delivered an order from here through DoorDash that my curiosity had finally peaked. Today, I decided to give them a try. Ordered 3 dinners through DoorDash and even after tip, my total was only about $30! We kept it simple & ordered 3 fried chicken wing dinners, 2 with string beans, 1 with collard greens, and all 3 with the Mac and cheese........guys. The chicken was cooked in fresh grease (y'all KNOW how important that is!), was well seasoned, crispy and juicy. Wings were a decent size -- not pigeons or steroid huge. It was easily the best/my family's favorite part of the meal (I'm already thinking about trying the fried pork chops next ). According to my husband, the string beans were fine -- flavorful, but not seasoned heavily. The collard greens were seasoned and vinegary, like I like. The Mac & cheese was great too, seasoned and cheesy. Do you see a pattern here??? (SEASON YOUR FOOD FOR STARS ) There's so much more I want to say, but if you're not sold by now, then...idk? Trust me on this hidden gem. I'm looking forward to ordering from here again (most likely through DoorDash because that gas station is a little...um...)

What I didn't like about it, you might love and that's why reviews are subjective -- so give it a try! I respect the sweet contrast it provides with the savory meal though. Well played, Ms. Gloria.

It is now on the street across from the old location. I read that their chitterlings were good and I was in the area, so I decided to find out for myself. Upon entering, I was met with a heated glass case which had the chitterlings, along with the hog maws (that would be pig's stomach), in addition to side items such as candied sweet potatoes and collard greens. The ambiance was of a traditional carry-out, but on a slow day ( I went on a Saturday late afternoon). I saw the pricing for the chitterlings and hog maws and was taken aback: the small round deli container that hold 1/4 pound of food was going for $15 with prices only increasing as the deli container sizes did. I had to remind myself, as a connoisseur of chitterlings and hog maws from my extensive family history of preparing such soul food delicacies, that it takes an awful long time to clean those pig intestines and stomach, I mean HOURS to remove the waste and grit followed by extensive rinsing to make sure none of that ilk remains. So I took one for the team and got the $15 container of chitterlings, along with the same size container of sweet potatoes. I doused them in hot sauce that was provided. The ladies were on the grill cooking an insane amount of scrapple, another home favorite that I enjoy. The pleasant gentleman that assisted me said that they are open for breakfast Monday-Sat beginning at 6a. I may have to stop by... Once home, I got into those chitterlings fast: they were cooked well, with NO grit, and had a vinegary flavor that was enhanced by the hot sauce. They were GOOD. The sweet potatoes were whipped, but as I tasted them, they were missing something. I whipped out my nutmeg and cinnamon and with a few shakes of each, the sweet potatoes were just as they should be. Angi's also sells pig's feet, subs, sandwiches, and fish. All in all, a good place to grab some chitterlings, hog maws, pig's feet, and other soul food-themed items. Will definitely be back to try the hog maws and to grab a scrapple sandwich for breakfast.

Their food can be habit forming. EVERYTHING is well seasoned. Those PARMESAN FRIES are RIDICULOUS. You can almost taste the calories.
