The Big Bean Theory - Baltimore

Delicious choices for a diverse palate. I recommend trying their bean burgers and crab cakes without the bun and adding an extra side of sauce. The flavors are vibrant and distinctive to this restaurant. It's a fantastic place for a quick lunch or dinner!

She asked for five minutes, though it felt more like ten before my meal was ready. When I returned to my desk and opened the container, I was so impressed that I wished I could go back to tip her. The presentation was stunning, featuring a beautiful salad that included unique ingredients like sliced beets, cucumbers, carrots, onions, and cherry tomatoes. The crab cake sat in the center, adorned with a sprig of rosemary—such a creative touch! Taking a bite of the crab cake, I was surprised by how much it tasted like fish, and it even looked similar. I briefly wondered if there had been a mix-up with a non-vegan order, but then I remembered one of the ingredients was seaweed. Both the salad and the crab cake were delicious, and although the portions were generous, I couldn't finish it all. I now look forward to enjoying the rest for dinner. This meal was clearly made with love!

I enjoyed a fantastic crab cake wrap that was simply delicious. The hibiscus and mint teas were also excellent. However, I wasn't a big fan of the cornbread, possibly because I prefer it heated in the oven. I also thought the $5 price for the cornbread was a bit steep. On the upside, the service has been great every time I've visited, and the quality of the food matches that high level of service!

This place is the star of Mount Vernon marketplace. The food is always amazing and the staff is super friendly. They now have happy hour deals and daily specials. It's also convenient to get food to go. And be sure to get whatever tea they have on stock that day. They're all good.
