Just so much character and fun! Make sure you call before going or else you may be turned away. We went at 6 and there was nobody else there, and we were treated to first class sass and great service. The food was also really nice, but a little pricey. We ordered the donburi, beef shabu shabu, and chicken pad Thai. All dishes were seasoned well (shabu was slightly too salty) but really complex and nice. Will definitely be back.

It's not kids friendly at all. We had to leave the restaurant because her rudeness was absurd. I hate to leave bad reviews even after experienced one because I really hate to hurt someone's business. But how we were treated was not okay. She basically verbally abused us because we brought a kid. At first I thought she was just joking and being funny but it quickly turned out that she's dead serious. I'm still in shock and think it's a joke. Unbelievable...

Suzie's Soba has been a Korean staple in Hampden since 1998. If you don't notice the inside artsy decor or cozy outdoor seating in back with beaucoup de plants, you could be forgiven, if you walk on by. But the decor and outside landscape--and the food--bear the stamp of owner Suzie. And Suzie will definitely (defiantly?) go down as a true Baltimore restaurant character. It's easy to pass by this local treasure without realizing the true Korean food you can savor inside. I have been re-visiting this place, having experienced a typical noodle lunch in the cozy outside a few weeks ago, and inside on this cool night. And so:Tonight I could only eat half of the seasonal special melt-in-your-mouth, spicy (to taste) Korean short rib with potatoes and carrots with white rice. I can't tell you how delicious this seasoned meat was! (Note: This special takes 20 mins to prepare, so call ahead before you visit.) I also enjoyed a hot mug of Gin Ma Cha or roasted rice green tea. The problem is Suzie is old school--no online presence! Also, the hours are sporadic, so either walk on by and check out the menu or give a call to find out what's up! See the menu here.

I was craving noodles for my birthday and saw here a menu that peaked my interest. WOW.First, Suzie is a one woman show - she cooked, she took our order, she did everything! After having 3 tables more people tried to come in but she told them there was a wait. The biggest thing about coming here is that you're on Suzie's time - and I'm 100% happy with that. The food (and her amazing personality) was well worth the wait (it wasn't even that long!)I started with the Shimp Shu-Mai - perfectly light and bouncy with the wrapper being amazingly cooked. My main was The Pan Fried Soba with Pork - the Sauce CLUNG to the noodles in ways that I wish every place I went to did. It was a generous portion with tons of protein and veggiesSuzie was a bit quiet at first - but then her personality completely blossomed throughout the night and was so friendly and sweet - always chatting to her tables and making jokes. I CANNOT wait to come back again!

We had dinner at Suzie's for the first time a few weeks ago and had a wonderful time. Suzie has been in Hampden for more than 20 years, and she is a character. She helped us order (we ordered a few dishes, and Suzie made some suggestions for better pairings) and entertained us throughout. It's definitely Suzie's shop; she's the owner, the chef, the waitress! It feels personal to eat at her restaurant. I'm not sure if Suzie is seating people inside right now, when we went for dinner we asked to sit on the patio, and I didn't see anyone seated inside. But the patio is lovely. Suzie has planted some gorgeous plants out there, and it's very private and quiet and charming. On a pretty day, this patio is a dream. Based on Suzie's suggestions, we ended up trying the steamed chicken dumplings, the cold cucumber salad, and the chicken soba (with scallions, broccoli, carrots, snow peas, and a spicy-ish sauce). Everything was delicious, and I definitely didn't regret letting Suzie talk us into some different dishes. I really enjoyed our meal here. Suzie is a delight, the food was great, and the patio is really wonderful. A great place for a meal on a pretty day!

This is absolutely my favorite spot in Hampden for lunch OR dinner! Suzie is an absolute force and her talent in the kitchen and charming wit makes any meal so so amazing. If you're only able to make it to one restaurant on the street I'd recommend this one. Pictured are the mushroom and spinach noodles- but they were so good I ate them before I remembered to take a picture!

Wow! This place was legit! I would definitely recommend it to friends. I've been in this area of Baltimore so many times I can't believe this was my first time trying it out, somehow I have overlooked this place. The Korean food is on point and Suzie helped me pick what I wanted to eat on a day when I was being indecisive. The food portions are perfect sized and don't leave you hungry! The owner is funny and comes off as a little intense but is friendly. I can understand that some people don't understand her but she had me cracking up. She is straight to the point and means business if she doesn't know you. There is an outdoor enclosed patio area with lots of seating, that's private and perfect for sunny days or if you want to eat outside.

Immediately upon walking in I knew I'd love this place. The atmosphere and decor are so inviting and intriguing, the place looks straight out of a fairytale. The food is PHENOMENAL, a large range of absolutely delicious meals and drinks, all very reasonably priced (we got four dishes and two cocktails for less than $40). Suzie herself is the standout part of this experience though; she's absolutely hilarious! I'll tell you, her humor is very dry and straightforward, so I see how some people view her as rude, but she gives some great back and forth banter while still providing wonderful service. She truly runs that place entirely, good for her!
