Crab cakes

For a kosher vegetarian MD boy who long since left, the vegan crab cake sandwich was delicious. A yummy taste of nostalgia.

Great food

Excellent comfort food. We ordered the loaded Mac n cheese and an order of cauliflower bites with fries. Large portions and everything was delicious. Fast service. Don’t forget to order a chocolate shake. Very good.

Vegan soul food

All vegan restaurant. I didn’t visit them in person but rather ordered food through DoorDash. I enjoyed the crabcake the most.

Brutal

I know having grown up in Baltimore that the city is run down like a lot of American cities. My experience with vegan food in trips to Baltimore have been at best subpar. There seriously is a lack of anything good vegan in the area. Someone prove me wrong. This restaurant is located in a run section but you would hope the inside would be inviting. While the table may have seemed clean, the owners should be very shamed of the presentation. The inside is as run down as the outside. What is it with vegan restaurants in Baltimore being so nasty inside. When you eat out at an establishment, at the very least you should feel comfortable and not gross. The food was brutal the best Mac in cheese in Baltimore according to their advertisement is an embarrassment to Mac n cheeze. It was an oily mess and just had. I real flavor. The crab cake sanwhich was oil cheesy mess as well. Who puts cheeze on a crab cake sandwhich. There was very little old bay flavor and looked unappealing. The owners of this establishment need to rethink the restaurant experience as this just isn’t it. I try vegan restaurants everywhere and the trend in Baltimore is so disappointing🤮

Cons: Gross interior/exterior, Oily food, No real vibe, just a machine where you order

Silly Good!

phenomenal loaded vegan mac, and peanut butter chocolate bar for dessert. seems like a place where people mostly order to-go, though there is seating. i can imagine this place was in its prime pre-pandemic, and could use a little love. definitely worth checking out!

Yummy!

Refocused Burger with bacon and cheese was delicious! Such a large burger I needed to use a fork to eat it! My husband loved the mac and cheese (both on his burger and on the side!).

So good!

Great fast-food style soul food. Everything is amazing, but as other reviewers have mentioned, the Mac and cheese is truly the star of the show.

Craving killer

This place has some of the best vegan “fast” food. We got the loaded cheese steak fries, crab cake sandwich, chicken sandwich, Mac n cheez, truffle parm fries, fried shrimps and cookies. Everything was AMAZING except the shrimps. The flavor was good but the texture was not for us. The Truffle fries were so crisp and flavorful. Chicken sandwich was on point! We added bbq and onion. Mac n cheez was on a whole-notha- level. So flavorful and creamy. Not your standard yellow American Mac. It’s very well seasoned almost gives pesto vibes. Loaded fries…… I can’t even. They were so warm and creamy but the fries were still crispy. Everyone working there is so kind too. I would literally move to Baltimore for this food.

Pros: Black owned and operated , The food is 🔥, Customer service on point.

Upscale fast food

Best mac and cheese in Baltimore by quite some distance (all vegan), likewise excellent vegan crab cakes. Unusual vibe inside - kind of like a fast food restaurant where you order at the counter, but also has a bar. I usually get the food to go then walk 2 minutes to St. Mary's Park, which is really nice (also where Bike Party usually starts, so hitting Refocused before that on the last Friday of every month is a must).

Amazing fast food

I tried the fried chicken sandwich with mushrooms, texture was on point, flavor was outstanding 🤯 My gf tried the mushroom sub and she loved it as well! We will go back and try the rest of the menu when we visit Baltimore again, it's a must!!! I love love love vegan fast food restaurants like this one!!!

Pros: Flavor and texture, Varied menu, Clean

Yummy! Yummy! Yummy!

Refocused is a great place if your craving what I’d call delicious Americana style food made vegan! The portobello cheesesteak sandwich is SOOOOOO GOOD! As is their Mac and cheese and Parmesan fries! I also love their black bean burger!

Pros: The food is delicious , Prices are not to expensive , Food arrives promptly when delivered

Cons: Bigger size of the Mac and cheese please!

Best Mac & Chez Ever!

This place was great! The max and chez alone was worth the drive but the sausage and cheesesteak put it over the top. Thanks so much for great service and food!

Pros: All vegan, Lots of variety, Best Mac and chez

Cons: None

Amazingly Delicious!

My family of three stopped here driving to DC. So glad we did. Shrimp and crab cake burger is the bomb. My daughter has the chkn burger that was super super crispy. Loaded Mac and cheese was pretty good as well. The crab cake is really on point though.

Pros: Fried items super crispy but not dry, Great selection , Ample seating

My go to Grub Spot

I love this establishment. The customer service and the food is always on point. I've introduced countless people to Refocused. The Best Mac n Cheese is the best around and the vegan wings are top notch.

Pros: Food , Decor, Customer Service

Cons: Parking sometimes

Dishonest ownership

Went to an event organized by this restaurant's owner and felt that it was misrepresented ($20 entrance fee x2 and barely any food). I had traveled to come to this event from over an hour away and was STARVING. Within 5 minutes of arriving I was standing in a LINE of disappointed customers asking very nicely for their money back, but he refused ALL of us. Most expensive forkful of food I've ever had. Vowed never to spend a dime in his restaurant if this is how he treats customersm

Cons: Dishonest, Unethical

Well-done Junk

While it's novel to get a deep-fried battered patty and nice to get fries you know are truly vegan (ie vegan fryer given vegan establishment), the menu is so disappointing: it's plantmeat and white flour, with a slice of tomato or leaf of lettuce thrown in. Basically, it's the vegan fast food. And I eat it occasionally, but then I feel I need to avoid it for weeks to restore proper nutrition haha.

Pros: vegan establishment, fun atmosphere, ease of ordering (/online)

Cons: limited/ fast food menu

good quick food

great but a little pricey for what it is. it has a fast food feel (though takeout only during covid might be somewhat responsible for that) and probably involves some store bought fake meats etc., as other reviews have mentioned, but the chicken in the chicken wrap was very crispy and it had a flavorful sauce. the mac and cheese side was creamy and uniquely flavored with herbs. no daiya detected.

Pros: very friendly and attentive staff, covid safe procedures, delicious and filling

Cons: somewhat pricey for basically fast food

Will come again

The food was good. However, there were some mistakes with the order. The great part was the owner refund the things I didn't get. So, I will give it another try.

Yummy!

We got chicken sandwich, cheesesteak on a roll, crab cake sandwich, Mac and cheese, and fried shrimp. The sandwiches were GREAT (Chicken & crab cake especially)!! The Mac and cheese was good, but not super cheesy. As a vegan I liked it, but thought the one I make at home is better... the fried shrimp were just imitation shrimp and the breading wasn’t thick. Still giving 5 stars because the sandwiches were SO FREAKIN GOOD.

Customer Service Needs Work

My family and I were in town for a few days from Georgia (this experience happened 8/28/20) and were looking for a good spot for some vegan food. This was not our first choice (we originally were going to a spot inside Lexington market- that may not be the name anymore but that’s what it was called years ago when I lived in MD and worked at the DNA lab across the street).

When my daughter and I walked in, a guy was sitting at the counter evidently on the phone taking an order. He looked at us and continued to sit in silence listening to the caller for FIVE MINUTES. I could see two people in the back who weren’t doing anything and finally after making eye contact with a female in the back, she came to the front and said something to the guy about taking my order. Eventually he put the call on hold and took our order. Honestly that is the only negative thing I have to say about this place. I opted not to get anything but my daughter ordered their “cheezesteak sub” and chocolate chip cookies. She loved the sub and thought the cookies were “ok”. I would have given 3 stars because good customer service is EVERYTHING to me but my daughter insisted I give them 4. I believe in second chances so we may try again when we’re in town.

Chick’un sandwich!

Stopped here after another vegan place was closed. So glad I did!!
Chick’un sandwich was awesome! Crispy! (Next time I’ll ask if they can add a spicier sauce to it.)
Ordered loaded mac to try. Delicious too, but after the sandwich, too full to eat much of it. Leftovers for later! Winning!
It was crowded, but guy at the front was very nice and apologetic. Don’t apologize for being busy! They were hustling to get orders out, so can’t fault them for it at all. I wait 60 mins for a 60 ride at Disney, I can wait a bit for great vegan food. Worth the wait!

Pros: All vegan , Good food , Modern, clean
