About this restaurant

  • Vegan-friendly
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Welcome to Oleum Vegan Kitchen, where Chef Adibe brings a fresh, creative approach to vegan cuisine, inspired by her almost 30 years of experience in the service industry and a deep passion for plant-based cooking. Originally founded in Okinawa, Japan, Oleum is now a Baltimore gem, located just a short drive from the National Aquarium and very close to the Baltimore Visitor's Center.

Our cozy and inviting space offers a welcoming atmosphere for both vegans and non-vegans alike, blending Mediterranean, Spanish, and Middle Eastern flavors into unforgettable dishes. A standout on our menu is the Miso Mushroom Bucatini, a delightful fusion of Chef Adibe's time in Japan and her love of savory pastas, this dish has quickly become a fan favorite.

Whether you’re looking to enjoy an intimate dinner or a special celebration, our friendly staff and beautiful ambiance, complete with a charming outdoor seating area, will ensure a memorable dining experience.

    Our 3rd weekend in a row, this time for brunch - again everything was phenomenal! The biscoff pancakes are insane. Service is always top notch. Vegan heaven!

    First time here. Loved the Golden Latte. Few offerers know to mix turmeric and black pepper in order to receive the benefits. Adding ginger and cinnamon makes this double shot drink a great taste and antioxidant. The tiramisu pancakes were brilliant. All servers were exceptional and even the owner spent time with us in pleasant conversation. Glad to hear she wants to move to a better, more upscale location across the harbor. The old mall was a good place to start and Oleum is the only reason to go there.

    We went for dinner after having gone for breakfast the same morning. (We wanted to go back because it was so good.) When we got there everyone recognized us and it was the most welcoming experience at a restaurant I've ever had. At the end of our meal the Head Chef even came by to chat and thank us for coming twice. Great restaurant with lovely people.

    Another absolutely amazing meal at Oleum! This time we tried the hummus, fried ravioli, and mushroom and leek risotto. All delicious, but the risotto is next level. Will definitely be back soon!

    Me and my wife really enjoyed eating at this new restaurant. We had the pleasure of meeting the chef and owner and were able to discuss and talk about her food. We were looking for a new plant based restaurant that had clean vegan options meaning no seed oils, and for the most part this restaurant came through. If you’re looking for great food, pleasant staff along with sound food recommendations this is the place. We will definitely be coming back here, especially since they’re gonna be moving to Fells point in the near future.
