Really good, really cheap fried food. Great for late-night munchies, as it's open till 4am. I go embarrassingly often, but it must be the expected satisfaction.

Old school diner atmosphere, opened for traditional American homey breakfast and lunch (closes at 1pm). You eat at the counter which stretches the space. A true Baltimore institution.
