Great First Experience

We had the Dolmas, soup/salad combo (white bean & kale soup and Farmer's Salad), the Firestarter pizza, and the carrot cake. Everything was excellent, and we'll be back to try more.

The atmosphere and service was top notch.

Pros: Flavors/freshness, Service, Atmosphere

I've been here four times now

I've been here four times for dinner and have gotten different things each time. Standouts so far are the Jamon serano camblue, ravioli bravas, the fried eggplant, the wedge salad (one of my faves overall), and the Toum Raider pizza. The pastas have been underseasoned each time (tried 3 of them) which was unfortunate. I also tried the meat lovers pizza which was also good but thought the Buffalo chicken pizza was too salty. The kale Caesar, tomato bisque, and tangier roots were all solid but none of them really stood out to me. The tiramisu is fantastic and cookies were good. The sticky toffee pudding was good but not enough sickness for my taste, it was more so just a cake.
This place is such a good vibe, I travel for work and love to sit at the bar with a glass of wine and treat myself to a nice dinner here. The servers are also all super kind and easy to talk to. Mini (bartender) has great recommendations and I've loved everything she has recommended to me. An absolute must if you are in the area.

Amazing salad

Ate there during weekend brunch. Sat alone at the bar. Server was friendly. Had the Fancy Farmer salad. It was pricy and worth every penny. I think it was the best salad I've ever had!

Best new vegan in Bmore hands down!

The food here is impeccable and amazing. I have brought multiple friends who are not veggie and they all loved it. Food, music, ambiance, all on point and feels very Baltimore too. Something for everyone.

Pros: Food, Drinks, Ambiance/Service

Absolutely delightful

Absolutely loved this place! The chicken pesto wrap was bursting with flavor, perfectly crisp and generously filled. The staff were so friendly and made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. Cozy atmosphere, and flawless food — I can’t wait to come back. A must-visit in Baltimore!”

Lovely place

We dined in and shared a small plate of dolmas (stuffed grape leaves) and a “When in Rome” pizza. Both dishes were good, but the pesto drizzled on our pizza was particularly tasty and I made a mental note to get anything with MORE PESTO on it there next time. The space and staff were lovely, but I didn’t like getting the check while we were still eating the pizza.

Wow

Can’t say enough about this place. Super fresh, super healthy, amazing staff, great vibe. It’s elevated but comfortable and I would say priced very very well for what you are getting.

Pros: Quality , Portions , Freshness

Cons: None

A must visit

Visited their pop up in the harborplace pavilion first but so glad they have a full space and kitchen now. Sandwiches: messy and delicious. Pizzas: great crust and house made toppings. Smoked eggplant wasn’t something I knew I needed to have but it was amazing. Desserts: perfection. So many amazing choices that it’s perfect for a group if you’re into sharing plates and everyone getting something different. (Or find your favorite and keep it all to yourself, no judgement)

Pros: Entirely plant-based, Friendly staff, warm atmosphere

Amazing food amazing people

My husband is in a wheelchair and we didn’t know the entrance had steps. But a couple that was also camping for brunch and one of the employees helped and we got in without an issue. Brunch was so tasty. Cinnamon roll, scramble tofu and hand over pizza. YUM. We had ordered takeout a few times in the past but it was nice to enjoy their new location.

MUST visit

Easily the best vegan restaurant around, has me seriously considering moving back to bmore!! Service is top tier, all staff and the owner were so friendly, even on their very busy last day in the harborplace location. This is definitely the best brunch I’ve ever had, we ordered a ton and everything was tasty!

I cannot say enough good things about them, you have to go!!!

Pros: Best service , Variety of sweet/savory , Great drinks

AYFKM it’s unbelievably good

Came for brunch. Wish I was in town longer because I want to try everything on all their menus. Everything is had was amazing beyond expectation. Tofu scramble was NOT ordinary, it was full of intricate flavor and carefully constructed textures. Bloody Mary was excellent, latte perfect. The scramble portion was a full meal and yet I still had order the ravioli bravas just to try them. They’re unreal, get them. The place is cute and everyone in it super friendly. Honestly I’d say this is one of the best vegan restaurants in the country, definitely for the price point. It would easily fit in with the best in Los Angeles and New York City; Baltimore is lucky to have Oleum.

Pros: Amazing flavors, nothing ordinary , Cute location, Friendly staff

Home Run

The Baltimore vegan scene will see me again. Oleum hit it out of the park; and with their new location in Fells Point this June, a home run has been scored.

Pros: Food, Staff

Be prepared to make hard decisions!

There was nothing on the menu we wouldn't have like to try which is great but also difficult to make a decision. We settled on sharing the dolmas & mezze (included toum, muhammara, and two types of hummus with four flatbreads). Everything is made fresh to order, to the point the flatbread is still warm when they bring it out. Amazing stuff.
We also go a coffee butter latte and the peanut butter horchita. Amazing sweet drinks while still maintaining a wonderful coffee and tea taste.

Some of the best vegan food I’ve had anywhere

Truly amazing meals we came back the next day for more. The whole menu is bomb.

Firestarter pizza, hot Italian panini, mezze, Caesar salad, bucatini, risotto and the new chocolate tart 🔥 social hour cocktail 🥂

Great service from the louis, bean, and the owner the whole team seems happy to be there. Wish we had a spot like this in SF. We will be back

Delicious whole food plant based dishes & drinks that keep us returning for more! Outstanding flavors, generous platings of nutritious, seasonal food. Great service (love Bean!). An extraordinarily talented Chef Adibe & her amazing team produce memorable meals both familiar & exotic. Try all. Highly recommend! Thrilled to have Oleum here in Baltimore. 👏👏👏😋

Fantastic

I went there for the first time last weekend and it was incredible. The pesto panini was the best vegan sandwich I’ve ever had. The pizza was extremely good also. They know how to use vegan cheese sparingly for best effect.
We were told they are moving to a new location at Fells Point in a couple months so check before you go.

Vegan haven in Baltimore

We received warmly by the servers, and sat away from the main doors to try to warm up after a cold and wet morning.
I warmed up with a delicious chai latte, bowl of soup and vodka pasta. There were so many choices on the menu, and after a road trip around the area it was fantastic to finally find vegan food in a small independent business.

Pros: Independent business , Fully vegan menu with lots of choices , Delicious food

Delicious Comfort Food

Oleum is located in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor so it is a bit pricey. The restaurant makes the best of the space it has by using privacy screens to keep the tables separate from the mall corridor. Vegans who are used to making do might feel overwhelmed by all the choices on the strictly plant-based menu. I really enjoyed the spicy Italian sandwich and my omnivore parents relished their food, the wedge salad paired with potato soup and pesto pasta with basil and tomato.

Pros: Entirely plant based, Good selection , Attentive wait staff

Cons: Food doesn’t all come out at once

Amazing vegan food

Incredible food and committed to veganism. Feels impressively fancy especially given their somewhat awkward location right now in the old mall. The mains are all very solid, with big portions and creative menu options, but the desserts are the highlight! Do not miss the tiramisu!

The servers have always been so kind and friendly. They also have a coffee and dessert bar tucked behind the restaurant further into the mall. Oleum is awesome! You will leave very full and very happy!

The Best!

An altogether fabulous experience--the food, the staff, the ambience! I especially appreciated that everything is made from scratch onsite. I find most restaurant food to be excessively oily and salty, but the soup and salad that I ordered were delicately spiced and satisfying without weighing me down. Also, there were many gluten-free options. Will definitely return!
