Service was fast and prices were decent. Expected to be wowed by the cakes but just wasnt. They were good but just regular and I ordered several to get the full perspective. Lemon cake was the best, followed by red velvet and chocolate. I didnt care for the tiramisu at all and hated the Italian cake even more. My friend and I each took one bite only and then threw it away. As for the red velvet and chocolate, had the cakes been more moist, they could have worked. Pecan bar was pretty good! Overall, Id give them another shot. Id just order something different next time.

Did I go here? Why would I? But its assuming I did. Oh God the acid hasnt worn off...wait I didnt take acid that day. Or did I? Dining in was....oh Jesus did I say that? Could they hear me?. Did he know how much I admired the shape of his skull.....

Shabby and dirty. Stalls filled with meats that look old and pastries that are obviously stale. Fried food stalls and steam table cuisine. The only exception I could see was Faidleys Seafood and Joy Hot Dog and Sausage. But it wasnt really enough to inspire me to hang around and eat. Overall, the place was so grimey that I wandered around to be polite, then left.World famous? For what? Just being there? Graveyards are famous for just being there, too.

Angies Soul Food across from the market is BS, I cant believe people are actually coming from out of town for that food. I hope you know that there are 3 Angies food spots in Baltimore. They are owned and operated by 3 different women, none related. The other 2 a different experience of good food. Try them out. Angies Soul Food is overpriced and not good.

I was visiting Baltimore MD for our family reunion, I had to check out Lexington Market. They offer a variety of eatings from doughnuts to crab cakes. 10 chicken wings $12. They are $2 more expensive than New York! It is evident that the chicken has been cooked long in advanced, Im still trying to describe the skin of the chicken.

Your place for Korean Soul food. I mean the vendors are largely Korean, but the food is every kind of comfort food. There are 2 places selling only roasted and smoked Turkey. Every cut of meat you ever heard of, both raw and cooked. 4 vegetable/fruit stands. You can search for Andrew Zimmers visit on the Travel Channel. Many fish/seafood places. I always buy too much.

Great meats, fresh fish, yummy bakeries and lucioys vegetable stands. Lots of eat on the spot choices, too. Had no clue there was seating to eat upstairs until after I ate. Go for the world-famous crab cakes at Faidleys. The lump cake is practically all lump crab.

Very disappointed. No safe distancing. Most folks did not wear masks. Baked goods did not look appetizing. Looked stale and not worth buying. Meats not fresh looking. Place dark. Not many venders open 11a. Breeding place for virus. Parking less than 45 min 5.00.

Small crowd but this place was lit! They were playing loud club music, people were dancing. I just wanted food so I got meat loaf mac n cheese and yams. They gave me enough for another meal. Also stopped at the cookie store for some snickerdoodles. There was this crazy dude on the light rail yelling at a white girl for no reason you listen to country music - communist and I felt the need to mention that?.

Fascinating place with a variety of stands serving up everything from cupcakes to fresh fish, Jamaican food to Chinese food and corned beef. Theres also a true market aspect, with some fruit & vegetable stands. Reminds me of markets in France & Spain.

This bakery has more than only fond memories, its better than many of the hyped bakeries in NYC, or even London. Have been a sometime customer since 1983, and theyre still here. Memories of the buttercream in the cakes (example: The Federal Hill Cake), the authentic fresh breads, the cookie varieties, and so on, make Muhlys a genuine Baltimore landmark. Just be careful going in and out of Lexington Market. Ya, you can thank me later. Right.

This was my fav place to bisit for food fried chicken & king crab but now i dont care for it.. The area seems very sketchy.. Lots of homeless people & drug dealers hanging around all over the place.. I lost my appetite before I was able To figure out what I wanted to eat. Most of the staff at this place were extremely rude with a hurry up & buy attitude. This place could use a deep cleaning & some clearing out..

The food here is the reason this place remains a legendary staple in Baltimores history! Its not much i can say that jasnt alreasy been said. The oysters i had were great. The carved turkey sandwiches i had were fresh. Ghe donits i had from the bakery were incredible. Yhe chicken was nostalgic. Even the dancing potato i had was immaculate. The only reason they get 4 stars is because the parking isnt geeat at all. And the folks begging me for change walking in and out of here ruin the aesthetic!

Lexington Market is a thriving central market of deli, fruits and veg, fish, meat and local take out food. Everything there has good prices and very fresh. Go. The neighborhood is a rough one, but I have both walked there from a hotel in the morning for breakfast as well as driven and parked in the pay lot next to the market. It is a great place to learn about Baltimore culture like the three clams on the half shell and a beer at one of the vendor stands. Everyone just stands around, has a few clams and beer, and then heads home on the bus with groceries. Who knew unless you go there. Baltimore is evidently really well known for their Jewish corned beef. It is much milder than its NY cousin. The fresh corned beef sandwiches and shrimp salad at the Mary Marvins is not to be missed. Note, however, that in Baltimore Rubin sandwiches are not grilled. FRESH MEAT: GO TO THE BOOTH CALLED AMOS MEATS. I go to their stand every time I am in Baltimore and love their quality, freshness and friendliness. There is often no way to tell apart stand from stand in markets like this. I have been going there several times a year for going on 5 years. buy your meat at AMOS MEATS and tell them you saw Karens review. I told them I would post this when I was there last.

This review is not specific to the bakery. Google doesnt seem to have the ability to review the market as a whole.Not many vendors in June 2021, although they are expanding. Most vendors looked fine at best, many looked kind of bad. If youre visiting as a tourist, you probably are considering it for Faidleys seafood. That is a high point. The crab cakes at Faidleys are pretty good (but be prepared to pay 22-30 bucks for a softball sized serving). We went, saw the state of most of it, went to Faidleys, then pretty quickly moved on. Even Faidleys isnt a good value, and there isnt much else around, so maybe skip this on your trip.

I was there on a Saturday, so it was busy. The food I had was good, but more expensive than I expected. Some friends and I were there to grab lunch. The space was pretty big, but not as clean or updated as expected. This was my first time going there, it will probably be awhile before I return there again. Construction outside was a mess. Parking was difficult to find.

The walking guides on the floors are confusing & no one seems to follow them, despite the outbreak of COVID-19. The Market is nearly desolate, indoors, nowadays. Additionally, theres no rhyme or reason to the line-up systems. I cant imagine it back to full-capacity. No public restrooms or places to sit or eat.The few places are open are alright, but the prices are not. 😣

Lexington Market is Baltimore history. For that reason it is always worth a visit. Lots of food, unique vendors that are exclusive to the market. The negative has more to do with the overall challenge of the area. It isnt thriving at the moment but the city has some big plans for redoing the market and hopefully drawing more business to that area.

First time being at the Lexington market, we went right when they opened. Not a lot of people were there. The whole place needs to be cleaned. We had smoothies that were good. Everyone was friendly. But parking was horrible to figure out how to get out of the parking lot and pay. Locals had to help tell us what to do with the chip. We wont go back.
