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.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience. The ravioli was especially amazing. The food was excellent, the service was great and very friendly, and we had a very lovely chat with the owner. We will certainly go back and look forward to the restaurant moving to a new, stand alone location.

    I came here for my brother's birthday dinner with immediate family and was impressed with both the service and value. The desserts are especially good and the table was in a private location which was quiet and good for conversation. My brother is vegetarian and picked this restaurant and we all loved it despite being meat lovers.

    Enjoyed the pumpkin soup and kale salad quite a bit. The pizza crust was fantastic though I would get a different pizza choice next time; I chose the Apollo with Aleppo hummus. Thank you Oleum for a large, creative, wholesome menu. All the best.

    I highly, highly recommend giving Oleum a visit! Had a wonderful time and greatly enjoyed their pizza (we ordered the 1/2 Gabriel and 1/2 Toum Raider pizza), their pasta (we ordered the miso mushroom bucatini), their matcha latte, and their tiramisu. All their food is unbelievably vegan and DELICIOUS. The tiramisu + lattes will absolutely blow your mind away. My only feedback is I thought the sauce that went over the ravioli appetizer was slightly too acidic for my tastes, but the filling was delightful. Oleum is a very intimate dining experience and I definitely recommend visiting during earlier hours to avoid crowds. Service was great and I cannot wait to visit again. I hope that Oleum can stay in Baltimore for a long time.

    Everything was phenomenal. Delicious food, well sized portions (recommend treating it like a tapas restaurant!) and wonderful staff. Highly recommend!!

    Excellent food that you wouldn’t even know is vegan (though that’s why we went). Great atmosphere. Excellent service.

    We had a wonderful time at Oleum celebrating a friend's birthday. Bean was our server and was amazing. She had excellent suggestions, and our small group was able to try a bunch of different items. Highly recommend the potatoes and the Gabriel pizza. Bean brought a coffee cake with a candle in it for our birthday girl on the house. Such a sweet gesture!

    We enjoyed a pleasant experience. They are brand new and just getting started. The seating was indoors but in the open. The server was very nice. She checked back to clear plates and check on us. The food came out at different times, so it was staggered. It tasted very good. The kids did not like the vegan cheese. But the pizza was well received, as was the soup.
