I've been going to the Local Fry since they were located in Fed Hill and the food has always been consistent, hot and ready to go I love that they've expanded to serve college students at Morgan State because I would've loved that when I was in college. The chicken is crisp and fried hard just the way I like it! The fries are delectable and still hold the power of the local fry sauce! This is a go to for me on my way home and if you haven't tried it it's a go to for you too. I recommend that you place an order first that way It'll be ready when you get there. read more

All of their food is simply amazing. It's one of the hidden gems of Baltimore and a must try for anyone in the area. The favorite is catfish asada fries and hot old bay bone in wings (hard fried, extra sauce). They have the best in the city. read more

*just a wing review* we got 10 buffalo and 10 honey garlic pepper, all flats. the buffalo flavor was just what you'd expect in the best way possible. the honey garlic pepper stole the show for me. the honey almost gave the wing this crystallization and crunch that a normal sauce doesn't bring to the table. all the wings were fried to perfection. i thought the blue cheese was good but the ranch was lackluster. ive had their fries in the past but too long ago to remember, so I'll have to add some of those to my order next time. these are probably some of the top wings in the city IMO! read more

Got some of their wings, chicken tenders, and loaded fries for delivery and were overall happy with the quality and quantity of food! Everything was as expected but a touch on the saltier side. Appreciate the creativity of this place in their fusion dishes and their wide selection of sauces. read more

Very disappointing experience. I have been a loyal customer of The Local Fry since their earlier location across from Cross Street Market in Federal Hill, when the fries were freshly hand-cut rather than frozen. While I understand that many restaurants had to adjust operations after 2020, I have always been able to rely on this establishment for hot, fresh food--until now. During my most recent visit to the Rotunda location, I placed an online order and arrived when the app indicated it was ready. Upon arrival, I was informed that only part of my order was complete and that the remainder would be out shortly. Despite seeing several staff members working and other customers receiving their orders, I waited approximately 19 minutes before being told my order was ready. Unfortunately, the quality of the food did not meet expectations. One sandwich was hot and fresh, but the other was barely warm, with condensation from sitting in a closed container making the chicken soggy and unappetizing. The fries and wings suffered from the same issue--both were soft and lacked crispness, likely due to being boxed and left to sit while the rest of the order was completed. The only item that remained fresh was the sandwich that had not been sitting during that extended wait. One of the sandwiches was ultimately inedible. While the staff member did apologize for the delay, the overall experience was disappointing, especially considering the cost exceeded $40. When picking up an order on time--or even early--it is reasonable to expect that all items will be served hot and fresh. read more

Love their fries- plain or loaded I'm never disappointed. This Korean BBQ cheese steak was soo good, full of flavor. Got it delivered, so a bit soggy but I can't wait to order this again and pick up. read more

The food was so tasty! Fries are separate from the entree unless you order from the fries section. My bulgogi fries were excellent! There was a wait and the staff was helpful. There are no public bathrooms at this location yet there are many businesses nearby. E we chose to park at the supermarket because the parking area was congested. read more

I tried these fries at the O's game. I wanted to love them but I didn't. They were quite salty and the portion size / cost ratio wasn't adequate. Maybe I'll try the the actual location to see if they're better but I could have made these at home. read more

I was very satisfied with my choice of wings from The Local Fry. They have many flavors to choose from which makes it hard to choose. But, this is a great things. The lemon pepper and the bbq are really tasty. I appreciate the fact you can choose how you prefer them cooked. I chose extra cooked which was perfect to my liking. Service was pleasant and expeditious. There is parking as it is located in a plaza with other eateries and shpping. It can get busy but someone is always coming out of a park, so give it a few moments. I highly recommend. read more

this is mostly a takeout spot, with a few seats inside and some picnic tables outside. ordering is through a kiosk if you're like me and hate talking to people. i always order the banh mi with gochujang tofu and cajun fries. the sandwiches are reasonable priced and they are generous with the pickled vegetables, making this my favorite banh mi around. the cajun fries are well seasoned so every fry has a bit of the seasoning. it's very nice to walk to the rotunda and reward yourself with a sandwich. the food holds up well in delivery too. this is my go-to when i don't feel like cooking. read more

Please see attachments stating that the refund policy needs to be posted I visited the Rotunda Local Fry location. I ordered the local fries with the crab dip, no scallions, crispy fries and cheddar cheese. My order was just about $19. Within 6 minutes of receiving my order I notice the fries were not crispy to me but limp, (Not the fries with the crab dip on them) I'm talking about the fries that didn't have dip on them were limp. I asked for crispy fries. I asked for them to be made over and serve the dip separately in a box possibly. I was told by Corey Hawkins that he could not make them over or offer a refund unless the store personnel made a mistake, also no refund is not stated on the receipt nor is it posted in the store. He stated he is not allowed to do anything basically to satisfy the customer, no other manager was there for me to speak to. This to me is not fair to the customer because I was totally unsatisfied and wanted a remake (separately) or a refund. This is very upsetting that the customers are treated this way, his hands was tied and im left unhappy with $20 fries. This was like a 10 minute ordeal because I was trying to get my money back and had i known that you dont give refunds I would have never placed an order there at all, this needs to be made known to the consumer. This situation puts the manager and the customer in a very awkward position and something needs to be done for customers that are unhappy with their orders, or you will loose alot of customers once they go through something like this and especially because its not posted that you don't give refunds. Regretful, Upset, disappointed and dissatisfied Customer read more

The Local Fry is located in a small shopping center, with plenty of parking. I made a to-go order on the Toast Takeout app, which was really simple and fast. They also have a self-order kiosk inside as well. Inside there is very limited seating, but from what it looks like most people order take out from here. I had the Korean Bowl with crispy chicken ($14). While I did enjoyed the components of the bowl (rice, egg, pickled onions, cucumber, and nori), the crispy chicken I received was dry and hard. The texture felt like old chicken - very stringy, dry, and not crispy. I also got the boneless gochujang wings ($12). Instead of blue cheese, they gave me ranch unfortunately. The wings tasted good. They have a number of other flavor to choose from as well. The Vietnamese Pulled Pork Banh Mi ($10) was a bit smaller than I expected. Everything was good about the Banh Mi from the bread to the condiments - my only complaint was the pulled pork, although moist, was flavorless and bland. The Hawaiian Poutine ($12) had BBQ Pork and a nice hint of sweetness from the pineapple salsa. I would come back to try some of their other dishes. read more

Our team placed an order through door dash from The Local Fry. We were looking forward to the catfish and fries as well as the Korean bowl. Unfortunately, the dasher left our food...or ate our food who knows really. Contacted the Local Fry, for them to tell us door dash is a third party and there's nothing they can do. Thank you The Local Fry! Thank you for not taking a few quick moments to ensure customer satisfaction. They will never get my business and will not be added to our local lunch business list. I'm only giving one star because I have to. read more

It had been a while we visited. Food was ready in about 10 min, though message said 20 to 25 min. So it was cold by the time we picked it up and got home. The Korean Bowl was fine. The tofu Po boy, cold, small, not crispy and pretty tasteless. Crispy fries, we're not very crispy and I did not get the sauce I ordered. Hope it was just a fluke. read more

The Vietnamese Banh Mi Sandwich was very good. Lots of veggies and meat on a poboy roll. The catfish poboy was equally great. The bread was fresh and the catfish was fried perfectly. The bread while not New Orleans French bread with the crispy crust was more than a subroll. This made it good. The Korean BBQ over fries was very good also. I hadn't been back since before the pandemic. I'll be back soon. read more

I've ordered from here three times now and my brother has once. All four times the food has been excellent! I can't recommend their dry wings and their old bay fries enough. They are true to their name, their fries are the bomb.com! I also feel like their selection of sodas is different too, most places usually don't have fanta pineapple and orange so I love that. When I went into their physical location the service was excellent, and they were so patient. Last of all, I love the sauce they give you that you can dip your fries or wings in, it looks like MayoKetchup but it has a little kick to it. Such a good pairing. I've had the garlic pepper dry wings and their honey garlic pepper wings and both were the best wings I've ever had (not exaggerating, I'm not even a huge fan of wings). You need to order from here, whether for pickup or delivery! read more

Just changed their ranch. It ruins the flavor of the rest of the food. "Ken's steakhouse ranch" is so bad. Without confirmation the you're going back to the original I won't be ordering again. For reference I ordered from here 34 times last year. Hope this isn't the end of another bmore store to save a couple penny's on ranch. 1 star for the ranch ruining their food read more

Finally checked out the local fry with my daughter. It's a cute small place, essentially no indoor seating but plenty of outdoor seating at the rotunda where it's located. You order at a kiosk and they prepare the food behind a half wall. It was pretty busy when we went but it only took 20 min for our food to come out. We got the Vietnamese bowl with bulgogi, the bulgogi po boy with old bay fries, and honey bbq wings. The wings were the best part. For $1 extra we got flats which was awesome because I don't like drumsticks. And you can opt for extra crispy, also key. The wings were 5 stars. The po boy was good but didn't blow us away, maybe 3.5-4 stars. The fries were just okay, 3 stars. The bowl was very good, 4 stars. Will definitely come back and taste more! read more

Absolutely fantastic!! This is such an unassuming to go restaurant in the Rotunda, would never think that the would be this fantastic! Esp the kbbq fries were so flavorful, and we absolutely LOVED all three types of wings (old bay, buffalo fire, Cajun). The to go order takes only about 10-15 mins to prep, so this relatively very quick. Highly highly recommend! read more

I've heard a lot of great things about The Local Fry and was craving some wings one night so I ordered it for takeout. They had a deal going on one of the ordering apps that gave you $5 off a purchase of $25 or more so I ended up getting an order of wings and the buffalo chicken fries. The wings: I'm not sure why I went against my normal preference but I ended up getting the garlic herb wings instead of my usual buffalo wings. The sauce was okay but kind of on the sweet side and I would've definitely preferred something spicy instead. All in all, they were still good, generously sauced up, and perfectly cooked. The fries: I thought this was a pretty unique dish and as I mentioned, I love me some buffalo chicken. It came with fried buffalo chicken, chopped celery, and blue cheese dressing on top of a bed of fries. It was really good! I could've eaten the whole box in one sitting. That said, towards the bottom of the box the fries got less and less flavorful since the other fixings were just kinda sprinkled on top. I wish this was prepared more like nachos where you have an even layer of fries and fixings throughout - not just on top. Maybe I need to shake the box a little to mix it up before digging in next time? Overall, this was pretty good and satisfied my craving for wings! I will likely return to try out a few other items and stick with my usual buffalo wings next time :) read more

Small but delicious place! A great fusion place that has a lot of different options, from Korean inspired fries, to Mexican inspired, and even some bahn mis! Something that you're craving will be on this menu! We ended up splitting the gochujang tofu bahn mi fries which were delicious! The tofu was flavored and cooked to perfection, and the fresh pickled vegetables on top of the fries added the nice fresh crunch! I used to go to this place in college at the federal hill location, and am happy to try the new location! At this location, you can easily park in the garage for free for less than 4 hours. Not too much seating inside (probably enough for 2 groups of 2?), so more for take out or taking it on the grassy lawn nearby! Highly recommend! read more

Decided to try the Local Fry based on the reviews as well since I haven't found a Banh Mi spot. Right now they are only doing online orders for pickup or delivery. I ordered the Bulgogi Banh Mi & Korean BBQ fries. Banh Mi had super soft French bread with veggies & tasty Bulgogi. The BBQ fries are one of the most popular dishes and I understand why. Fries held up to the bbq ribeye topping & the carmelized onions and garlic took it over the top! Pickup was easy and seamless and the order took 10-15 minutes. I've found my Banh Mi spot in Baltimore! read more

The local fry (TLF) is a very solid spot for great bahn mi and french fries. My SO and I came on a random weekday afternoon when we were both off of work and wanted a change from our walkable neighborhood. We got one tofu and one chicken banh mi and it definitely hit the spot for a great weekday meal. I was glad to see that there were multiple veggie options in addition to more meat options. It is also located in a really cute plaza in Roland Park - this would be a great place to go to for a meal while running errands (or post workout). read more

My family stopped here for lunch while in Baltimore for the day! Here is what we ordered: - Garlic lemon pepper: These wings were solid and a step above just regular lemon pepper. We ordered this fried hard, but honestly it didn't need it. It actually dried it out too much so I would skip that step next time (unless you choose a wet sauce option) - Hot Old Bay: We enjoyed this flavor! It wasn't overly spicy and loved the old bay hit. No complaints besides overall it was more drums than flats. So if you like flags, pay the extra dollar to get all flats. - Seasoned fries (cajun): Standard fries! Nothing too crazy or unique but tasty. read more

I loved the menu options and the creative types of fries. The honey lemon pepper wings were perfect, I ordered them fried hard, and they were the right amount of crispy without being overcooked. I ordered the small garlic parmesan fries on the side and it wasn't what I expected, I expected the fries to be more tossed with the cheese and garlic versus the unmelted cheese piled on top. The flavor was good, but it was messy to eat. I'll try a different type on my next visit. Overall, I had a good experience. The Hampden location is taking online orders only with one person inside at a time to retrieve their order. Service was pretty quick, It only took about 15 minutes. read more
