This is your social gathering spot, as well as your kitchen table, office, and front stoop, among other things. This is your house, our house, R. House, and it belongs to you. A team will be at each of the 10 stalls, doing what they do best – preparing a delicious poké bowl, shwarma, or fried chicken sandwich – for you. From Baltimore to all over the world — from Hilo to Caracas to Seoul — they draw inspiration for R. House and bring it all back to the city where it all began. The attached events venue, The Garage is a 6,500-square-foot industrial-style space ideal for private events with a capacity of up to 400 participants.
